and received his education in the schools of that place.  After 
acquiring an excellent knowledge of telegraphy he came to Norwood,
where he has held his present position for over six years.  He was

elector for the same.  Mr. Marshall is a Democrat in politics, is a 
man of excellent business qualifications, and thoroughly understands
