Thursday, Feb. 10, 1899. TO MARK OLD AUGUSTA. Last week Senator Hummel of Seiinagrove Introduced a bill in the Senate aonroDriatlDK 18000.00 for the purchase by the State of a part of the site of Old Fort Augusta atSun bury. This place is replete with ancient historical OOCOrrenOBS and during the early settlement of this country was the scene of many a aooflict between the whites and red' skins. During the colonial jwriiMl, .i i i illlU lieiUVeri lllllltuiwin.., J1 lor manv years. This was also pi ice of rendeevou ii.r t r-ivi'lers who tor travelers wno i as a rule followed the river. It was I here also that Conrad Wetter spot a great deal of time. An Indian burying ground has been recently discovered on this very tract and the place is worthy of the attention of the greatStateofPennaylvania. The history of'this place is perhaps best ami most fully described and narrat ed by John F. Mcginnis, the his torian of the West Branch valley. The present movement to buy the site of Fort Augusta was started by the Daughters of the Revolution. We trust Senator Hummers efforts to .ret ii hill'throuirh carrvinir with it the provisions above recited, will be I - 1 O f crowned with success. The attention of our farmers is called to the list of institutes, to be held in this county this winter, by .he State Department ot Agriculture, assisted by the 1k1 board of institute managers for the county.
