checked shirt. a welt worn pais Of pants
and heavy pair of cowhide boots. which
are the terror of evil doers, he is to be seen
constantly lifting from one end of McCom6
City to the other. He is a man Of very few
words; one whose promises can always be
relied upon. During last winter, when the
pressure for houses in McComb was very
great, a man with large family, who had
been engaged to work for the company,
was landed from the cars. At that time
there was not vacant house in the town,
nor a spare room at the hotel. Indeed,
there seemed to. be no shelter for this un-
fortunate family less exposed than the blue
canopy of heaven. The case was stated to
the president, and the question asked,
"Now. Mr.. Billings, how long will it take
you to build these people house" Mr..
Billings quietly replied, Half An hour"
And, sure enough, in half an hour the house
was ready for occupation, and for six
months furnished home for the family.
Well, that's the kind of man he is.
Lots are sold separately, or houses are
erected thereon BY the company, as the
buyer may desire. A payment Of twenty
per cent in cash is all that is at first re.
quired, and the balance is paid in install

the lots measure fifty by 900 feet, and are
