GBTA MDT JOY purpose of prosecuting it to a suc- cessful issue and we want our Perry county readers of the Bulletin to read this notice and be ready to in- dulge us in this enterprise. We enjoyed the hospitality of Howard Neideigh and wife over at their beautiful country home lo- cated near Hossler's Church on Thursday last. When we landed we came into contact with five painters who were putting the finishing touches on his residence. Howard Neideigh is conducting quite an ex- tensive poultry emporium and is al- ways amply supplied with eggs in in- numerable quantities. He had the misfortune of losing one of his valuable horses last week through colic of which he has our deepest sympathy. Quite an exciting scene transpired around here on Sunday morning when a horse belonging to Abraham Waltz was turned loose to eat the surplus grass that was growing to a certain extent along the tracks of a branch rail road that runs past our home to the oil station located a short distance above. There is a wooden trestle that spans the track near here. The horse after meander- ing around had gotten onto the track and was under the impression that he could cross these ties that were laid thereon when he met a serious mistake and fell through with his legs extending below. The hasty summons was called by Christian Stauffer and a force of men appeared on the scene with block and tackle and succeeded in extricating him from his perilous position "and placed him again on terra firma with- out any serious results.
