Jackson - Sleighing lasts long enough this winter for people to get out their cutters, if not long enough for them to take a sleigh ride. AND The funeral of Arthegates Potter was attended Sunday. Interment at North Jackson. Mr. Potter was about 75 years old and was brother of the late James and John Potter and of Benjamin Potter, who is the only remaining son of the family. Arthegates is given the credit of having given to the community the story of saying, "That's too much pork for a schilling." A story is also told of his carrying an old "A" harrow on his shoulder and the one for whom he carried it, who was something of a joker, walked along by his side and made himself useful by complimenting him on account of his powerful strength and ability to bear a heavy burden. Arthegates was a bachelor.
