Hawkins, John - 1803

We understand that the Reverend B. Alliton, principal at the academy of Bordentown, (N. J.) in connection with Mr. John Hawkins, has made a discovery likely to prove highly beneficial to paper-makers, viz : the making of paper from the husks of Indian corn.  It is expected that this article can be furnished in great abundance by the farmers, at a low rate.

We are informed that they have obtained a patent for the invention from the United States, and propose selling out rights to paper-makers.

Jones, Oliver - 1898

Stole A Watch.
A thief or thieves, entered the handsome residence of Wm. S. Jones, North First street, Saturday morning and took as a reward a gold watch from the vest pocket of Edward Fisher, brother-in-law of Mr. Jones.  The thief gained an entrance by scaling the front porch posts and prying open the wire screen on a window directly over the porch roof.  Mr. Fisher was the first to discover the presence of the night hawks, as he had been restless and hearing a slight noise, rose to investigate.  The open wire screen first attracted his attention and upon approaching the open window he found vest <sic> but his gold watch was missing.  Mr. Fisher immediately gave the alarm.

Mr. W. S. Jones and his brother Oliver of Elwood, Ind., who is here on a visit, together with a few neighbors, scoured the country east of here as far as Radebaugh but could get no trace of the miscreant.  Mr. Fisher offers a reward of $50 for the apprehension and conviction of the thief.

Koonce, M. E. (Rev.) - 1898

It has been quite a while since anything has been heard in Jeannette about taking in, as a whole, of the Jeannette Volunteer company of soldiers.  But definite news came on Wednesday—and it was treated as a welcome message by all—that the company will be accepted.  At this time, Adjutant General Stewart telephoned Capt. James Laird, at Greensburg, that the company would be mustered into service, and that the Governor had appointed him captain; Nelson A. Ely, first lieutenant, and Rev. M. E. Koonce, second lieutenant.  The company will consist of 209 men, including officers, and will be known as the Jeannette Volunteer Company.  Examination of recruits will be held in the City Hall, Magee avenue, next Monday and Tuesday, and it is expected a rush will be made by young men of Jeannette and vicinity to be placed on the roster.

Capt. Denny, of Ligonier, has volunteered to furnish twenty five men to the Jeannette Company.  The United States recruiting officer will be here on Monday and Tuesday, to enroll the company, and it will be mustered into service as soon thereafter as possible.  Upon being mustered into service it is likely they will proceed at once to Chickamauga, Tenn., where uniforms and equipments <sic> will be furnished them.  A meeting of the Company will be held Saturday afternoon at 2 o’clock in City Hall, for the purpose of organizing.  All members or prospective members are requested to be present.

Woodward, W. W. - 1803

FIRE AT PORTSMOUTH.
Citizens of and near Gettysburg, I expect you have all heard of the distressed situation of our Northern brethren.  We see that in different parts of our state, monies are collecting up to forward to them, to relieve the distresses of the tender mother, the infant, the fatherless, &c. &c.  Let us not be backward in doing our duty.  Let the elderly citizens of Gettysburg call a meeting immediately, appoint a treasurer, and let the monies collected, be forwarded to Mr. W. W. Woodward, bookseller, Philadelphia, or to the committee at Portsmouth, in the state of New Hampshire.
