Bally Duff Presentation and Address Note
The most pleasant event of the season occurred at Mr and Mrs Robert Bensons residence last Friday evening. Miss Mater Benson received a dining table outfit and a Bible from the pastor as tokens of appreciation for her service. A community toast followed with supper, and the gathering dispersed by morning feeling better. The wood yard controversy near town appears resolved with the owner relocating it.
