J. H. Guthrie (Big Island Township) is a stirring, vigorous young man, of only eighteen summers; was born 30 June 1865 the son of John D. and Susan Guthrie, of Bowling Green Township. He has been prosecuting his studies at the Ada and Danville Normal Schools, but this spring (1883) he has been conducting the "Longacre Farm," owned by his father, and consisting of 126 acres. On this farm are twenty-five acres of wheat, seventy-five acres of corn and good live stock. In all probability Mr. Guthrie will make this his permanent residence. The farm arm is supplied with good stock.
