Mrs. Anna Hall, of Clinton, Illinois, aunt to the Drs. Vawter, came in on the train Wednesday and will visit with her sister, Mrs. Estus, for two weeks when her husband will arrive with a carload of fine stock. Mr. Hall intends to make Cowley his home.

How We Boom! From the books of H. G. Fuller & Co., we copy the following sales of city and county property made by the firm between the 6th and 18th of this month. It is a wonderful record in real estate movement.
Ed P. Greer et al to Wm. B. Hall, 3 lots in Courier Place: $350.00.
Winfield Courier, April 10, 1884.
W. B. Hall, another man recently from Democratic Missouri, has bought lots in the Courier Place and has a good house under headway. F. J. Pierce was putting on the paint Monday. Mr. John Wells, recently from Indiana, has also built a $2,500 house in the Courier Place. D. R. Laycock has one nearly finished. This plat was a year ago bare prairie, but it won’t be much longer until everyone of the twelve quarter blocks will have a good house on it and be occupied by a family.
Winfield Courier, April 24, 1884.
In mentioning, a few weeks ago, Mr. W. B. Hall and his new improvements in the Courier Place, we put him on record as from Democratic Missouri, which leads Mr. Hall to “kick.” We are glad to know that he never lived in Pukedom and to correct our accusation by saying that he is from De Witt County, Illinois, and is proud of the fact. He is also proud of his new home, Winfield. Many of the better class of Missourians, however, are moving to Cowley, and we give them a hearty welcome.
