This is the second time the ; watch has been lost and afterwards found. On Tuesday Henry Bannister employed Ray Noah to clean out well on the Bannister farm northeast of Glen wood. Neighbor Claude Deu- pree also helped in the work. When the work started there was apparently twenty-two feet of water in the well and the well is six reet In diameter and fifty feet deep. When they be gan to lift the six foot of blue mud accumulated in the bottom the well the remark was made that Clarence had dropped his gold watch in the well fifteen years ago. To their sur prise in one bucket of rnud brought up there was noted a piece of leath er strap sticking out. Mr. Bannister took hold of it and brought from thta mud a watch on the other end of that leather strap. He wiped the mud off the watch and the gold case was as bright as ever gold shone. That watch had lain in its damr muddv grave for fifteen years. This same watch some fifteen years pre vious to being dropped in the well was lost in a plowed field. Careful search failed to find it. About three years later the watch was turned ur to daylight by a plow. -Clarence had better be careful about losing that watch again for it is said the third time is the charm. J. W. Larpway will take the found watch under his care and note if the interior machinery will work. Glen wocd Opinion. ENTERTAIN FOR SON Brothers received time.
