Editor Herald:
As nothing from our vicinity has APP
peared in the HERALD lately, | offer
the following.
DEATHS.
We have had two deaths lately,
Mrs. Ann Rowe, widow of the late
Braxton Rowe, and Miss Mary Rowe,
her granddaughter. The former was
tolerably well advanced in years, the
latter yet in her teens. Many friends
and relatives mourn the loss of both.
Their bodies lie in calm repose,
At rest from toll, free from pain;
The Saviour guards their spirits close,
For He'll unite them once again.
Mr.. James Hatcher had tough
spell of fevors 4 few weeks ago, but We
see him stirring around, almost rs good
rs new.
AGRICULTURAL.
The people were never buster, cut
ting and housing tobacco, cutting corn,
making sorghum molasses, and some
getting ready for sowing wheat.
We learn that Mr.. A. G.. Brown
has bought drill for sowing wheat.
Thank you, Amp. for your go-ahead-
a-tivc-ness. 1t will pay better than
Sells Great European Show, with the
balloons that didn't 60 up and girafes
that were not to be seen. BY the way
won't the next show DC bigger? The
bills say it will.
