Old Building Removed
A land mark was removed from
the village, this week, when Wallace
Agar, Morris, wrecked and moved to
his farm an old building, which was
built for a dwelling house about
eighty years ago. It was made of
hand hewn and sawed lumber, some
of which is in^a pretty fair state of
preservation. It was first located on
the property of Leech Bros, and
nearly fifty^ears ago was purchased
by the late John Harris and moved to
the property now owned by Mrs,
Thomas Coultes and used for a horse
sta*ble and lastly for a garage.
In a recent issue of a local paper
an item appeared in the “Fifty Years
Ago” column stating that William
Messer had improved the appearance
of his general store with new double
doors. This store is now occupied by
A. D. Smith, who', during this past

ing quite a new appearance.

MORRIS
at home plate, Chalmers, Doran and
Mellor.
There were no. sensational plays,
but, Clinton had two double plays
tb^tput a crimp in the Hurons’ do
ings, ■ Hawkins of the Colts banged
a homer and a doubUMVhil^^oran
and Lediet flattened their batons av?t
.erages with three hits each.
The game was well attended and
the fans groaned their disappoint
ment on some of the Hurons’ mis
plays and over the fact that so ^jnany
base-runners were left on the bags.
This series, both games, produced
some weird baseball, but the close
ness of the score kept the interest at
fever heat. The game was all tied
up 4-4 at the start of the ninth. Wagg
singled and J. Hawkins was out at
first, Peterson to Doran, but his fine
bunt put Wagg on second. Neilans
went out Mellor to Doran, White
was safe on Mellor’s muff, Wagg go
ing home. Hovey singled to score
White and Pickett struck out.
It looked as if the Hurons would
overcome the two run handicap, but 1
no such luck. Mellor struck out, then l
Somers was hit by a pitched ball and i
Stole second, scoring on Doran’s sin
gle. Doran, took second on an error
and stole third but was caught steal
ing home, Chalmers singled then W.
Tiffin went out Draper to Pickett |
and
test
the game was over and the pro-
was on.

with Clinton here on Wednesday did
not last long as the'Colts came right
back Saturday to win 11-10. It* was
a disappointing game from a Wing
ham standpoint as the Hurons gath
ered in 3 runs in each of the first and
second inning to lead 6-0. The Colts
came back with three runs and then
took the lead in the fourth when they
put six men across the plate. That
6-run rally was a heart breaker. The
side should have been retired with
out a run but two errors- to catch
men at home gave the Colts a start.
Peterson replaced Chalmers in this
inning but Chalmers could not be
blamed for he was doing noble work
on the mound. Peterson pitched nice
ball for the balance of'the game only
one run being scored .off.him in the
last five frames.
This loss puts the Indians out of
O.B.A.A. for this year and it is just
too bad as they should have won all
games from Clinton instead of losing
each one of them by one run. There
is no use crying over spilt milk. We
wish Clinton good luck in their fut
ure play-off games. But if our team
is to play heads-up ball next year
they will have to get more practice.
Four home runs were hit during!
the game, two by each team. Al
though disappointing the game was
exciting but it surely could not be
considered a ball classic by any
means. Here’s hoping for better luck
next year.
The game was all tied up in the
7th, but a home run in the 8th by
White put Clinton one up, the one
they needed to win the game.
