Richard Lee, Sr.

On Tuesday last we had a call from some gentlemen from Lake County, Ohio, who have settled in this county near Mooresville. Messrs. George H. Robinson and Richard Lee were the gentlemen who called; and we learned from these gentlemen that there are sixteen men and some young men and a portion with families who have settled in this county in a circuit of three or four miles, all from Lake County.

We are glad to welcome these gentlemen and their families. They are intelligent, enterprising citizens, come from a section of Ohio where the standard of agricultural improvement is high and they will be an acquisition to the enterprise and wealth of the county.
