Temperance man avoids marriage and river floods
A Ridgway figure, Brother Powell, a staunch temperance advocate, remains opposed to marriage. The article notes last week's unexpected rise of the river causing rafting activity, likely from heavy rains upstream, and mentions a typographical note about an earlier publication date. It also references temperance sentiment, a road opening between Sunbury and Shamokin, and copper and commodity news from the Upper Peninsula with shipping estimates and canal impacts.
