Mr. Samuel Mumma, residing on the farm of Mrs. S.P. Grove, met with what might have been a very serious accident one day last week. While working near the barn, the wind blew the large barn door, which was open, against him and threw him against a horse that was standing nearby. He was kicked by the horse and rendered unconscious for several minutes: one of his ribs was broken, and he also sustained other injuries.

Messrs. W. McCoy & Son of Rohrersville, and Mr. Mahlon Knadler of this place, have erected a very fine Granite Monument to the memory of Stephen P. Grove in Fairview Cemetery. Messrs. McCoy & Son have earned a reputation which, for exquisite workmanship and design, might be envied by many of their calling and profession.
