He is worth $8,000,000. He owns 24,000 acres of land in Clearfield county alone. He is 26 years old and is not married. He don't drink and don't smoke. He goes to bed early and gets up early and is very sensible. We hope he will remain so; that he will marry some real lovely Bellefonte young lady, and that he and his bride will use their money wisely and usefully. - Bellefonte Daily News. If the young millionaire is unable to find a young lady who suits his fancy among Bellefonte beauties, let him come over to Huntingdon where pretty girls are to be found without number.
