Reverend Jones to Take New Post in Leo Indiana
Rev Ralph C. Jones moves to Leo in Allen County for a Sunday service at his new appointment and will relocate next week. Leo, a town of about 500 on the St Joe river, offers a larger salary and a new $1800 parsonage with a less arduous workload. Fort Wayne is accessible via a top gravel road, and Leo is viewed as a promotion from Fremont. The writer notes the promotion and offers personal congratulations. Condensed testimonials tout Dr Kings New Discovery for coughs with endorsements from Chas B Hood and J D Brown, plus other favorable remarks and a free trial offer at McKeehen’s drug store.
