red persons were collected as lookers on,
much to the disturbance of that quietude
that should reign on the Sabbath Day.
Michael was duly arraigned before J udge

that on the 12th of June, 1875, in a suit in the

SHIP CHANNEL.
, In connection with the recent article of
„ Maj. Cave stting forth and illustrating
the washing out power of the cut at Mon-
Houston. We are proud to know that the
most honorable and highly respected portion
of our business .community came forward to
our assistance while laudably endeavoring to
build up the Age. For this timely assistance
we shall ever feel deeply grateful, while
we interpret this friendliness as an endorse
ment of the policy which has controlled the
conduct of the paper under our management.
Our contracts have all been complied with to
the letter, and the interest of all our patrons
has been secured in the transfer which has
! been made to the publishers who succeed us.
Owing to the necessity of removal, accom-
panied with some needed repairs to the press,
etc., an interim of a few days will elapse before
the paper is re-issued. Then it is the design
I of Messrs. R. D. Westcott and B.F. Hardcas-
tle to resume the publication as proprietors.
Colonel Westcott, will occupy the editorial
chair, and Mr. Hardcastle his old position as
business manager. The Age will be enlarged
and otherwise improved. Material sufficient
for the publication of one of the handsomest
papers in Texas is in this office, and no effort,
we are assured, will be spared to render it
so, and a positively permanent fixture. The
reputation, financially and politically, of
Colonel Westcott will at once secure the
utmost confidence and a liberal support.
Anticipating this action some time since, he
has made an effort for and will start with a
I handsome subscription list for The Weekly
Age. Numerous new subscribers have also
been added to the Daily.
We are assured by Mr. Hardcastle that he
will exercise'—even in a greater degree than
heretofore—every effort to render the paper
worthy the patronage of enterprising Hous-
ton advertisers. We feel satisfied that he
I will be sustained and succeed.
