S0UTHSIDE ITEMS.

The fourth of July was day of plea
sure and profit to the Budd's Creek
people. Antioch Church was the place
of gathering. Exercises as follows I:
Sunday School at 9 o clock ; preaching
at II dinner at 1:3O; singing. led by
a GAINESVILLE delegation and the ac-
complished Misses Richardson of the
Salem Society, at 2:3O. The Spirit Of
the Lord was in our midst, aud We felt
it was good to be there. msa
Antioch is a hallowed spot-conse-
Grated ground. Thousands ofsouls have
gone to glory who were born again"
there-many are still on the road.
The oldest member now living is I'm
Gle Elijah Martin, "a years old March
18th, last. His frame is very frail, but
such faith and hope and love 1t will
greatly strengthen your purpose to live
for God to spend few hours with him
and Aunt Lizzy,' his wife. They
ice religion every day.
The first Antioch Church was built
in 1872, and the year after the first
Camp meeting was held. These meet
ings were held annually, and sometimes
bi-annually, until 1861. Scarcely
sign of the old camps remains. The
place where they once stood is now a
cemetery.
The Southside Grange holds its
monthly meetings in house near by
the church, prepared for the purpose.
J. Ell. Marable is Master. and the ma
terial composing the membership can
not be excelled in any country. You
will not be surprised at this when L
tell you that it is gathered up from

Just whisper to the members that every
one who stays away at the next meet
ing will lose great treat. The best
thing of the season will be on hand.
1 hear no little complaint about to-
bacco frenching. Buck Ussery will
lose a large portion of his crop from
this cause. Dat harvest is on hand
this week, and they are unusually good.
The watermelon patches that l have
seen have been so injured by too much
rain that the vines seem not to have
much life in them. The Laughren
boys are out with their fine Separator,

of course, because | was once taken
for him. For the same reason one OF
your Keesees is pretty, but l will not
say which one it is. because you will
be sure not to agree with me.
l have driven the bugs from my Irish
potatoe patch by pruning the vines
about half off, top and sides. This
lets the sun into the ridge, which the
bugs cannot stand. How it will affect
the vines l cannot yet say. Last year
Lewis Lowe drove his bugs out with
coal oil, but the remedy for the bugs
killed the vines. My vines do not ap-
pear to be hurt as yet, though it has
been week since they were trimmed.
With a knife for cutting stalks they
can be pruned in very little while.

What the Country Wants.

Gold is chiefly useful as means OF
settling balances between communities
and nations. In a perfectly healthy
condition ofthe country's finances gold
is not needed at the far domestic ex-
changes. But the moment these f.
nances become deranged, and gold is
sought by the fearful aud distruStful
capitalists, it cannot be paid OUT The
outward flowing stream is soon ex-
hausted and the gates are shut. Now,
what the country wants is enough cur
rency and cessation from financial
tinkering until confidence is entirely
restored. Then specie payments may
be resumed without harm to anybody.
But go on tinkeringan and curtailing cur
rency until it may be assumed that
there is not enough paper afoat to en-
able the people to exhaust the stock of
gold in the banks and the government
vaults, and there will not only be not

DEATH OF rHohAs ). PErrus.

- a s
Mr.. THOMAS r. PETTUs died in New
Providence, Tenn, Oh Tuesday morn
ing last at half past one O'Clock, ofcon-
sumption. He had been in feeble
health for twelve months past. He
was born near Peaeher's Mills. in
Montgomery County. on the 9th day of
June, 1913. He came to New Provi-
dence in cary life and engaged in busi-
ness as clerk, and married. a short
time thereafter, Miss Martha A. Cow
herd, by whom he had eight children.
some of whom are yet living. After
attending closely to business in New
Providence for several years, he took
an interest in what is known as the
Kentucky Landing, and gave that his
undivided attention for several years.
then returning to New Providence
where he remained until his death.
In October, 1870, he lost his wife,
and IN the year 1871 he married his
present wife. 10 the Spring of 1871
he attached himself to the Presbyter-
iau Church in GAINESVILLE, and ex-
hbited not only by this act, but also
by his uniform christian department,
his full faith In Immortality. Mr..
Pettus was man of sound judgment
and untiring energy, and while he
amassed large fortune, he was ever
watchful of the necessities Of the poor
and the distressed while he reared,
and educated his own household, he
cared for andsprotected an aged moth
er and several sisters, who yet survive
him. Of his sisters we will mention
Mrs. Richard Grinstead, of Todd coun-
ty, Kentucky; Mrs. Elsey Trice, of
New Providence Mrs. r. I. Pollard,
(who has preceded him by several
years to the bright spirit land) and |
Miss Almeda Pettus who lives with
their mother near New Providence.
Mr.. Pettus was one of the leading
lights in every enterprise having for its
object the elevation and dignity of the
human race, and we might say with
fearful regret, that no man could have
fallen in our midst who will be more
missed than he; always in the front
rank in kindness, love and charity, and |
while we thus lament the public loss,
we are not unmindful to mingle our
with the bereaved family,
knowing full we'll that time, the great
leveller of human aspirations, will soon
bind US, like him, in the chains of in
evitable destiny but the letters thus
thrown around the victim only extend
to the earth, earthly" the ever active,
living MAN lives with his God.
! His funeral was preached at the
Baptist Church in New Providence,
by Rev. j. B. Shearer, D. D., and his
remains were, escorted to their resting
place in Greenwood Cemetery by a
large procession of friends and ac-
luaintances. r- %
