He was putting the top log on and by some means it came back, and he made a spring and would have got out of the way had his foot not slipped.Neighbors chipped in and provided a supply of wood for the family.

I wish to say to the public that I have had a rose cancer on the side of my face and neck, about four inches across it, and it affected me very much. This came on about the 12th of January 1887. When it commenced it came with a hard lump over the large artery, and spread very fast till I called on J. A. Smith, M.D. of Traverse City, the 1st of Feb. 1887. The cancer was cured by the blood treatment and is entirely well at this date. You will hear from me hereafter. Parties wishing to get any informnation concerning the above, can call on or write to me, when I will be pleased to give any information concerning the above. Dated Traverse City, April 5, 1887.

In answer to the lasy in the HERALD asking if us little folks will piece the blocks for a quilt for the editor, I will say I for one will piece one if I can do it good enough. You can put it in the back corner somewhere. I pieced blocks for my bed three years ago. I propose we get them ready for Christmas, as I think it would be nice to put on our ages with our names. I haven't talked very loud, so I guess the editor hasn't heard what I have said. I hope all the little letter writers will hurry up and answer. I won't write any more to day. I am sick, or I would not had time to write this much, for I would have been down in the woods sawing wood. My age is ten. Good bye. LENNIE HALLETT
