For instance-Tru man Bootman lives, or did live, at Ed meston. Yet said Bootman will prob ably go to his grave all unconscious of the fact that he has been introduced^ to tbe world by the faithful and indefatiga ble scribe from “ PeetHook.” Then there are WillAlverson, LeahDutcher, T. r“ King and hosts of people that I pretty well acquainted with, because week after week I heai’d of them and about them. S o l feel an interest in this reunion and those who are to make it the pleasant social success I feel sure it will be, besides drawing publisher and writer closer together and getting the various scribes acquainted with each other. During tbe time I was on the CouBiBR I do not think 1 missed more than three or four times of putting Una dilla Forks in type. It was always a fa vorite with -me, because tbe writing was good and the author always knew what she was talking about, and didn’t spell “ business” “buisness.” I shoald like to shake hands with her on this oc casion.
