Swehla Property Not Sold False Rumors Settled Mr. Swehla feels sad at heart after living, knowing Rosendale since 1904 and having spent his time and money here and children were born and grew up here and I dare say that there are few others that wants the Rosendale flag higher than the said Swehla; but to be crucified for false reports form people that pretended to be his good friends and neighbors and it puts him in doubt if he can resurect in three days or not Well a few extra days does not matter, so cheer up, Ben, you still have many friends and after resurection you will have more. But what he most fears is the threat of de struction and bodily harm con cerning Swehla ’ s Store on Main street in Rosendale. 1, Ben Swehla, of Rosendale, say that the few dictators of the Main street have more guesses coming concerning the store being sold to colored people, which Is a false hood outright. If the busy-bodys that are call ed they or we are the people would ^pay more attention to their own.affairs the whole township of Rosendale would ‘ ibe much better off including the Main street where newd is gathered and where one dictator ’ s guess is as good as the-other and I for one fully agree with my ' neighbors and friends, that undesirable people are not wanted in Rosendale and when ever the store in question is sold or rented it will be a favor to me to have some of those who know more about my business than I do and therefore I will be glad to have them write the agreement so that they would have the infor mation In full. Thanking them In advance, BEN SWEHLA, Rosendale, N. Y. ------------ O ------------ MARCHING-YONNETTE Miss T.
