"Jacob M. Nodurft and his entire family have arranged to make Rice county, Kansas, their future home. A car was charted last week for $99 and their household effects loaded last Monday and Tuesday at this place. The family started yesterday on the 10:42 mail in company with Richard Nodurft and daughter Ida. Uncle George H. Nodurft makes one of the party, who will also find a home in Kansas.

We wish them all a plwasant home and prosperity."
