A twenty-year-old sou of Jas Mariner who lives 011 the Tiowbridge place north of town, cut his leg accidentally some time since, and though the wound was not severe, it did not seem dangerous until blood-poisoning set in.

Weatherly in his Ocean Wave makes allusions to the flag raising inci dent here, and while nothing but insin uations are used, the statements made are incorrect, exaggerated, and cast sus picions on parties who had nothing todo with it.
