THE WILLIAMSTOWN EJECTMENT CASE
The suit brought by Daniel UPDEGROVE, one of the heirs of
John UPDEGROVE, Sr., at one time owner of fifty acres of land
upon which the greater part of Williamstown is now built, against
Mr. J.M. BLUM, of this borough, is a test case and will be tried next week.
This is the revival of a similar action brought in 1872 by John UPDEGROVE, Sr.,
who has since died, against some fifty owners of property in the tract in dispute.
The claim of the plaintiffs was based upon the ground that Conrad
UPDEGROVE in 1853 mde a conveyance of the premises to Elizabeth UPDEGROVE,
who afterward deeded the property to William WAGNER, her husband,
John UPDEGROVE, Sr., not joining in the conveyance; and because the husband
did not join in the deed, the plaintiffs assert that no title passed to WAGNER.
The trial of the case was ably and exhaustively conducted before Judge PEARSON,
a number of prominent lawyers being engaged in it. J.C. DURBIN, Esq.,
of this borough, was of council for the defense. On the 18th of December, 1875,
a verdict was given in favor of the defendants, since which time until recently,
no further attempt has been made to recover the land.
No special uneasiness is felt on the part of the numerous parties at present
interested inasmuch as no idea is entertained that the plaintiff can succeed in
reversing the verdict rendered in 1875. The trial will begin on Thursday afternoon.

FELL IN THE FIRE-A son of the widow WOLAND, living at the lower end of
North Second street, met with a narrow escape last Saturday afternoon.
Mrs. WOLAND had started a fire in the lot to burn up the rubbish,
preparatory to making a garden. The little fellow, about four years old,
was playing about the fire, and while his mother was engaged at her
household duties, he somehow fell backwards into the flames.
Mrs. George WEBER, who resides next door, happened to observe the child
just at the moment of the accident and gave the alarm.
Mrs. WOLAND ran to the rescue and grabbed her boy in time to save him from
a shocking death. Both, however, were severely burned. Persons who
make fire in their gardens should watch them carefully to prevent accidents.
It is not a commendable practice at best.

OPEN YOUR EYES - Mrs. Jane E. KING, of Williamsport, placed her invalid
son under my charge Nov. 18, 1886. She did so because the M.D.'s of
her own town could not cure him, and she knew of the many cures made
there by my methods,after the utter failure of her home physicians. He had
scrofulous tumors on his neck, and was much out of order. She wrote me
Jan. 24: "my son has improved much under your treatment. He gained
seven pounds in seven weeks; tumors are decreasing. I have no faith in
drugging. I have strong faith that you will cure him. I shall recommend
Omnipathy to all sick persons. I know what you have done for Miss Kate NESTOR."
(This is followed by a long story of more miraculous cures of
people from Boston, Virginia, Lancaster, etc)
My charge is only $5 a month.
Won't the readers of the Register do me the kindness to read a
pamphlet of 32 pages, entitled "Extraordinary Cures made in a Three Years'
Practice in Harrisburg, Pa, by Absorption, by External Application of
Non-Poisonous Medicines?" No charge for pamphlet

(Married) TROUTMAN-WETZEL -- March 23, Jonas R. TROUTMAN of Lykens township,
and Miss Fyetta E. WETZEL, of Upper Mahanoy, Northumberland County.

(Married) DOUDEN-BARLET -- In Lykens, April 22, at the Reformed parsonage,
by Rev. A.S. STAUFFER, Mr. Aaron Augustin DOUDEN and Miss Alice BARLET,
both of Lykens.

(Sad Accident) A serious accident happened on Saturday last to a
fourteen-year-old daughter of Dr. W. RAKER, of Uniontown. She was on a
stroll in the woods near that place, with a younger sister, hunting
tea-berries, and a stick from among the under brush was accidentally
run in her eye. The pupil of that very sensitive organ was injured, we learn,
and fears are entertained that the unfortunate girl will be bereft of the
sight of the eye. Her father, the Doctor, will no doubt exhaust the resources
of science to spare this deformity of his interesting daughter, in which
we hope he may be successful.

(Death's Doings) Mr. William McCALL, a victim of consumption, after an
illness of or three months' duration, died on Wednesday evening, at his
residence on North Second street, aged 32 years. His remains will be
conveyed to Dauphin today, for interment beside his wife, whom he
survived by only about eight months. Three orphan children -- two daughters and
one son -- are left behind to be cared for by friends.

The wife of Mr. Joseph SHULER, of this place, an estimable lady,
died last night, after a lingering illness. Her age was 44 years.

(Sundry Matters) Mr. HENSEL, the new landlord at the Upper Dauphin Hotel,
is making material alterations to the house.

H.W. SNYDER will open a case of pound delaines at his store on
Monday morning next.

Mr. C. BERGER is preparing to rebuild the double frame house on
North Second street, near Market, destroyed by fire nearly two years ago.

Messrs. Jacob WILT, Herbert JONES, Thomas WILLIAMS, and George DAVIS,
all of Wiconisco, started for the Big Horn country, Montana Territory, in
search of gold, on Wednesday. Mr. Daniel HAWK, of this borough, expects
to leave for that same destination on Monday next.

A furious fire raged last evening on Berry's mountain, just east of town.
The fence enclosing the Odd Fellows' cemetery and attorney
Durbin's grounds, surrounding his mansion, were somewhat endangered. A sheet of
lurid flame extended along the mountain side for some distance.

(Court) The April term of quarter sessions court will commence on Monday
next. Following are the jurors from the upper end of the county
Grand Jurors - Jacob COLLER, Williams; Geroge ERNEST, Washington;
