BRADSHAW CREEK, Giles Co., Tenn.
MR.. MCCORD Il have been reading
with much interest what your cores
pOndents say about Col. Thos. X. Cor
don, in his SD year, with his 76 de-
scendents; Philip Marbut, in his 18th
year, with his 100 descendants. Also
James Orr in his SSth year, with his 14S
descendants. l find many of the readers
of your paper read them with like inter
est. l present the names of Paul Chiles,
who was born in Henry county, Vir-
ginia, June 3, 1877, came to East Tennes-
see when very young, married the day
he was Is years old, moved to Bradshaw
Creek, Giles county, Tennessee, in 1918,
fixed up a stable near Mt. Pleasant
meeting house, and lived in it the first
year, has lived within one mile of that
place until his wife died, about ten
years ago. Since that time he has been
living with his children. At the COM
mencement of the war, he had a nice
fortune, consisting of several hundred
acres of good land, and about thirty ne
gTOes. L should have said when he
moved from East Tennessee to Giles, he
moved on pack-hOrse. Perhaps your
readers would like to know how he made
so much property, having so little to
start with. The secret OF it is this, he
was strictly honest to a cent, industri-
GUS and saving, attended to his own bus
mess, and let other peoples business
alone. l wish we had more such citi-
zens, we would be a more prosperous
and happy people. He had nine chill
