Their family consists of three children: Henry J., who lately graduated at the Normal School, Warrensburg, Cora, and Julius Ezra. Mr. Wall is a man of determination and highly respected by all who know him. No one has larger scope of friends and neighbors than the Wall family; and nothing but kind and hospitable treatment is received from their hands.
