The Budget Some excerpts

Excerpts from the April 8 edition of The Budget (typographical errors and grammar mistakes are as they appeared in the publication):

Roodhouse, Ill.: “It was a wet snow, detailing every branch, twig and fence post. Once the sun shone and it warmed up a bit it soon disappeared. A number of the church ladies have planted gardens.”

Millersburg, Ind.: “Mom sad her arm is hurting more again cause she did some letter writing. She did bind a quilt by hand last week.”

Burton, Ohio: “I apologize for the mistake in March 25 Budget that Billy Mullets have a baby, which they don’t. My hearing seems to be bad if too many are talking at the same time.”

Cub Run, Ky.: “There was some excitement yesterday afternoon near Noah L. Bylers’ on Rt. 88 when a large truck that is used to haul brush from the roadsides ran off the road into the ditch.”

Thompsontown, Pa.: “Awhile ago Steve was up at Sam Peachey’s for some lumber and had a red plastic flag tied on the end, and before they left found their beef cow chewing on and just swallowing the last of it. Several weeks later when Sams butchered the cow the boys cut open the stomach and found it still intact, now he has it again!”

Degraff, Ohio: “Mrs. Aden Miller is nursing a sore toe which she thinks was broken from something falling on it. Joe Lengacher Sr. was hurrying through the barn and somehow hit his head on a piece of wood which left him stiff and sore.”
