Rock Island Argus

Personal.-We received a call this morning from Mr. M. B. Osborn, formerly our efficient post master, who has been out among the mountains of the west for many months past, principally for the purpose of building up his health. With hunting, fishing, and mining the old gentleman has made quite a young man of himself, and proposes to return in a few months to resume operations. He intends to take up some claims and work them in connection with Fred Corker, formerly one of his clerks in the post office. The idea of a gentleman of Mr. Osborn's age going into such business shows what the pure air of Colorado can effect when liberally taken into the system.
