William Caster sells property - note the reason

William Caster has sold his property on E. Main St, the Geiger place to William Harshbarger. Mr. Caster will move to a small farm near Whitesville, where he expects to engage in the poultry business. Mr. Caster has been a good citizen and we regret to lose him. He takes this step because his health will not permit him to follow his trade of blacksmithing. Ed Busenbark has rented the house from Mr. Harshbarger. -- kbz
