Mr. Prunett Brunson, formerly Justice of the Peace at Hageman, but now
of Valparaiso, made The Tribune office a pleasant call last Saturday.
Mr. Brunson is the genial landlord of the well known "Farmer's House"
opposite the Opera House, Main street, and has proven a very successful
manager. His place is a favorite with Westchester folks, for the table
is always supplied with the finest edibles the market affords. We are
glad to note Mr. Brunson's success.
Rev. Challman's welcome, on his arrival in Batavia, was a warm one. His
house-hold goods were taken in charge by the congregation, and neatly
arranged in the pastoral residence, and a purse of $85 presented to him,
immediately after getting off the cars. Already the pastor is warmly
attached to his new congregation, and it seems that all hope of getting
him back to Westchester is lost. We are glad to know, however that
Pastor Challman's lot is cast in pleasant places, and that the people of
his new home appreciate his worth.
