Joseph went to the priest but the priest told him , I can’t forgive your sins now. Joseph said to the priest, You go to hell and I will go some where else.

DAVID YECK, farmer, Section 2, P. O. Pomona, was born in Adams County, PenDAVID YECK, farmer, Section 2, P. O. Pomona, was born in Adams County, Penn., in 1844. When quite young his parents emigrated to Logan County, Ohio, where he was reared on a farm. He came to Kansas in July, 1866, and located in Osage County, where he rented land and engaged in farming. In the fall of 1869, he came to Franklin County and located on his present farm, which consists of 407 acres. Mr. Yeck cultivates only fifty acres of his land. He makes a specialty of raising cattle, and uses his land principally for pasture. He breeds high grades of Durham Short-horn cattle and Poland-China hogs. On his place he has put out a nice orchard of about two-hundred trees of various fruits.
