The new year has set in with very
bad weather. According to Wiley EN-
by, Esq, the balance Of the winter
will be terrible. The Esq has acted as
clerk of the weather for the people in
this end of the county for a number OF
years, and has always given satisfaction |
ID most of the people, until last spring, |
when they became very much dissatis- |
fed with the old gentleman. They |
thought he had held the office so long |
that be had become careless, and |
they finally discharged him and employ |
ed Tom Martin, who has given general |
satisfaction since he has been in office. |
Eight Indians passed through the viii
lage last week, dressed in citizens garb.
Ihey said they wero going to Kansas. |
Ihey excited considerable curiosity
among some of our villagers, who had
never seen red man OF the forhst be-
fore.
Mr.. Thos. NJ. Leneave, who has been
living for the last three years at Duck
River Station, has bought Shade Dug~
gers Allen Richardson tract of land, |
giving nine thousand dollars for it.
The people of Duck River have lost a
good citizen. Mr.. Leneave is one of our
most successful stock traders. He
knows exactly when to take hold to
make it pay and when to let it alone.
lie is fine judge of stock of every de~
scriptiOn.
Charley Grisby, col, had a big dance
at his house one night during Christi
mas week, and got into row with his
and beat her so badly
that she had him arrested and carried |
before Esq. Hunt. The ESQ. fined him
for his conduct and advised him to be |
more cautious in the future.
IL is not often the case that a Sunday
School in little village like this will I
keep up during the winter months. The {
school at the Christian Church, under
the supeIintendency of Mr.. A. B. Sow
oil, is rather than an exception to the {
rule. The school is as large now as ,
t was in the summer and tall, and is |
likely to continue so. This speaks well !
Tor the village and the management of '
Mr.. Sowell. On last Sunday, the first L
If the year, Mr.. SOwell was reelected
o the office of Superintendent by accla-
nation, for the year.
The way the trains run at present rer- 8
Ter it very incOnvenient to the people of
his vicinity who wish to go TO Column L
)ia. The train going south at night F.
tops only at telegraph stations, and
PERSONS going from here to Columbia on C
he morning train will have to stay all
light and come back next day The o
consequence is they go horseback rather 7
han pay hotel bill and be away from
lOme at night. d
The village is in a stir this week
all of the business men are changing
