  • Notes 
    • Haysville - It is with deep regret we have to announce the death of Mrs. J. S. Blatchford, which took place at the residence of her husband on Wednesday, 3rd Dec. The deceased was a daughter of Mr. John Hays, of this village, and her untimely demise has cast a gloom over a large circle of friends. She leaves a husband and five children to mourn their great affliction.
