t ii’ MSSAU COUNTY REVIEW FRIDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1912 Village Trustees All the membere of the Village Board were in attendance at the regu lar meeting Friday evening with the exception of Trustee Sigmond. The minutes were read and approved. Chief Cornell appeared and stated that ihe Fire Council had received notice from the trustees of the Hook and Ladder Company that the old truck must be removed from their building within thirty days. The Chief called attention to the fact that it was dan gerous for the members of that com pany to keep the old apnaratus in the house owing to its standing in the way of the new truck. President Hanee asked the Chief for his suggestion which was to build a house on the lot used by Wide Awake Engine Company to house all old appa ratus, while Trustee Bedell thought if it was necessary to erect such a build ing it should be at the power house so as to also house the steam roller. Trustee Bedell also remarked that he thought we should sell all the old junk and when we want additional apparatus, buy new. , President Hanse stated that he thought that the present companies (referring to Hose No. 4) should be taken care of before ary building was erected for housing old apparatus. He suggested that the firemen ask for a special election to be held to vote on an appropriation to erect a new build ing for Hose 4, while Trustee Randall thought the Fire Council should work hard for the passage of an appropria tion to purchase plots of property on which to place the fire houses, or one large plot in some central location on which to erect a building to house several of the companies. It was finally decided that the clerk communicate with the Fire Council and ascertain if next Wednesday even ing would be a convenient time for them to hold a joint meeting with the Village Board to talk over matters of interest to the Fire Department.

L, through the return of Alanson Elli son jr. from Auburn, where he was sent several years ago by County Judge Egar Jackson to serve a sentence for receiving stolen goods. Ellison while in prison formed the acquaintance of Miss Hazel Penniy, a young woman who with her parents had moved to Auburn from Townsville, Pa. She is I now his bride, he asserts. Letters in his possesion purporting to be from the young woman, vouched in the language of love, tend to bear out his assertion. Edison says his bride is now stopping | in the northern part of New York State with her brother, who is a professional man,in high standing. Miss Penniy’s relatives, including her parents, object ed to her marrying Ellison, he asserts, but he found a Protestant clergyman who tied the knot on August 14 am' he i home to take his son in partnership with him but the young man wants to get away from his earlier associations, which brought him trouble. He wants to go among strangers and has promised his young bride that he will lead a new life and she believes him. Ellison is about thirty years of age and his bride a few years his junior. — Sunday World.
