Iron Ore has been discovered on the farm of Robert McMullin in East Nottingham township. It is said to abound in large quantities. It has also been recently found on several adjacent farms. If some enterprising farmer in that locality would unearth a good coal mine the people of other sections of the county might be induced to think that “scrogy” was of some account.
