This Week in Titusville, April 5, 1888
Local Laconics
Mr. G.W. Scobie and family started yesterday for a four months' visit to their old home in Connecticut.
Mr. W. C. C. Branning has purchased a magnificent upright piano from the well known firm of Ludden & Bates, of Savannah.
Mr. M.E. Gruber has returned from a short trip to Jacksonville and St. Augustine. He undoubtedly had a very pleasant time.
Mr. L.C. Oliver has become further interested in business in our town, by purchasing the half interest of Mr. Huckabay, of the firm of Huckabay and Budge. With the push characteristic of the members of the new firm we expect to see their business increase as it has with Messrs. Huckabay and Budge since they first started it.
Episcopal church services will be held at Wager Hall, on Sunday next, the 8th inst. Morning service will commence at 11 o'clock, and there will be Holy Communion afterwards. The Rev. Arch-deacon Carpenter will officiate. The time of commencement of the evening service will be given out at the morning service.
