aassan news who haa held the position for a number of years finally however 3 b who la a georgetown oldboy gave in and accepted the mayorellty for another term the following un- ufiuil experience which he told about in his paper helped make him re- assume his municipal duties he claims one of the reasons the editor had for retiring from the office of mayor was that he felt the wear and tear of his various activities waa affecting hu health however he was not pre pared for burial just yet and the jolt he reserved last week when members nl the family wired concerning his deuth will not soon be forgotten a confusion of names at the trenton air jort was evidently responsible for the shocking occurrence we havent a full explanation yet but it appears that the editor a son joe was advised by the adjutant or other officer at the airport that his father was dead and he was at liberty to come home and attend the funeral joe was naturally greatly upset and telephoned to his mater mrs sprague at belleville who m turn got an awful shock from which ahe has not yet com pletely recovered fearing the wont mrs sprague telephoned powauan and waa advised that her father was not only alive but
