LYMAN ITEMS
J. W. Martain, agent for Parlin & Orendorff, Canton, Ill., manufacturers of the celebrated "Canton Clipper" stirring plow, was in town today. Thompson and Lyman gave him an order.
Our first regular mail was left on Tuesday last, W. C. Thompson officiating. It brought 58 letters and carried out 39.
We are having a season of mud, and gum boots are in demand. Sidewalks are rather scarce in this young burg of ours....
Mrs. Elizabeth Bond, wife of James Bond, of this township, expired after a lingering illness, on Saturday last -- the 24th.
Johnson and Meserve are making preparations to erect a fine warehouse here, the work to be commenced as soon as practicable. This firm are heavy operators in the great staple of Illinois, both at Buckley and at this place, and the warehouse they propose building will be a vast improvement to our business, when compared with the wholesale system of cribs now in vogue.
