125 Years Ago

Herald of June 2, 1899

The Herald urged the formation of a Creamery Association in Morrisons Cove. It was noted that one such organization was operating at Carrolltown with a capital of $4,000. The Herald stated: “Such an association would yield better returns with less hard labor than shipping milk at the present low price.”

I.C. Stonerook and H.E. Brown of Curryville started on their bicycles on a trip to visit friends at Williamsburg, Huntingdon, Warriors Mark and Altoona.

The barn of Washington Reed at Yellow Springs was blown over in a violent windstorm. One of his horses had a leg broken in the collapse of the building.

“Jasper”, the Herald columnist at Roaring Spring, warned that the proprietors of a speakeasy at East Sharpsburg were known, and that the net was about to close on them if they did not watch out.
