  • Notes 
    • MAN FOUND - We learn that a man named Jacob Koch, of Berlin was found dead yesterday afternoon in Mr. Jacob Y. Shantz's dam, near Berlin. It appears that he left his home about two weeks ago and drowned himself. His wife and four children did not expect that he would commit suicide and thought he had lef the country to parts unknown. We could not learn the cause of this rash act.
