At their meeting this week the- new ' City Council resolved to allow policeman Mr. Drayton Smith $[/? i>er month, for ids support during the l ime of his lllnes*. We think this is u very commendable action upon the part of the Council, and is a recognition of the faithful service this ofllcer has rendered to the town during the several years he has acted in the capacity of policeman. "Uncle Drayton" as he is familiarly known is a I good man, who enjoys the respect and confidence of all who know him, and 110 action of the Town Council could have met with more universal endorsement than the provision made for this alllicted ollicer. Pay a Them All. We are informed by post master Hunter that he now has authority to pay any and all P. O. money orders that are presented, whether drawn on this office or not.
