Henry high school routed Washburn Friday with a 29 to 5 victory. The report notes recruiting tidbits, local visits, and various community notices including lost items, elections results, and a Grand Army encampment slated for Decatur.
A sweep of items recounts pension day in the county court with 14 applicants but funds limited, a large fire in Snohomish causing losses, thefts at a home sale, property transfers to Spencer Ketchum for his son, and a busy sale of household goods in Henry. Also noted are Pullman car agency news, church lectures on Mexico, a Mother’s Day observance, auto license updates, and social notices from Lacon and nearby communities.
