Hamlin Pioneer Visits Marlin.
-----

       R. D. Moore of Hamlin was a visitor to Marlin this week.  Mr. Moore was a long time citizen of Falls county residing on the west side.
       Several years ago he invested in a body of land where the town of Hamlin now stands.  He bought the land at a low figure, the railway came along and selected the townsite on his land and added tens of thousands to the value of his property.  He is very enthusiastic over the future prospects of that section.
