Orange County

Mr. D. Hallady, of Santa Anna, Cal. is spending this week, with his many Batavia friends, and attending the Fair. He was the first patentee of the well known and popular Hallady Standard Wind Mill, manufactured by the U.S. W.E.&P. Co., and was for a long time President of the co. Nearly half his life has been spent in our city, and it was with sincere regret that the citizens of Batavia saw him remove to California, several years ago. Since his residence in Santa Anna he has done a great deal towards advancing the interests of that community, and he now owns one of the finest ranches in that part of the country.
