On Saturday of this week Col R. G. Ingersoll will address the citizens of this county, at the Courthouse, in Toulon, on topics connected with the political issues now before the people. Col. Ingersoll is well known as one of the most eloquent and logical speakers in the state, and will not fail to interest his hearers. He will speak at Wyoming on Saturday evening.
We trust our people will all turn out and give the gallant Colonel a fitting reception.
On the same day, the Ladies of the Aid Society will give a dinner, the proceeds of which are to be appropriated for the benefit of the Families of Soldiers. This is a worthy object, and as winter is fast approaching and many of the Soldiers’ families in our county are illy prepared to survive its storms and frosts with any degree of comfort, we trust every one will assist in this laudable work.
