Times are livelier.
Nearly every one in the neigh
borhood has been, or is now sick.
Have not heard of any fatalities
yet ,sthanks.to the corps of efficient
physicians. 1t seems almost a
mockery to speak of the sickness we
have here, compared to the dreadful
scourge that infests the unhappy
south. The sufferers have the sym
pathy of this neighborhoOd. Salem
Church, with Mr.. J. T. Garnett, who
is always in the front ranks where
there is good to be done, as standing
Relief Committee, has sent sub
stantial expressions of their sympa-
thy.
Mrs. B. A. Whittock has reopen
ed her school at home.
We are delighted that the ac-
complished Belle Bibb has COM
menced teaching again at Mr.. Ed.
Garnett's. 1t is quite treat to
have Miss Belle in the neighbOr-
hood.

Autumn comes "heralded by rain,
with banners, by great gales inces-
SAINT famed" We sigh for the
time when the leaves shall grow
''brighter than brightest silver of
Samracand," then fade, and fall,
and with their falling weary nature
sink to repose, and call is lovely,
calm and still"
To the Right Rev. Hemp Hill,
greeting: Hope to hear from you
again soon through "our mutual
FRIEND" the CHRONICLE.
BY the way there are several rea-
sons, which it is useless to mention,
why you don't see "Miss l. ID. A"

Esq, at once.
We were in GAINESVILLE last week,
and since there before, the buildings
have gone up almost beyond con-
ception. Really PhpXiX like they
have risen from their own ashes.
May the city live, not the life OF one
Phoenix, but of many, and continue
to improve as rapidly as it has done
in the past few years. Continued
success and prosperity to the
CHRONICLE. i. d. A.

DAYS from the date of the election I;
hence the necessity for hasty action
when in the opinion of any candi-
date there is probable ground for a
contest, and hence my action as the
beginning of a contest with my sue
cessful competitor, Judge Stark.
At the time said bill was filed the
vote of Cheatham county, as pub
lished in its county paper and pur-
porting to be official, showed as a
part of the returns from one precinct
over one hundred votes for Judge

and returning the votes cast, COM

votes of which aggregated three or
four times the majority claimed for
Judge Stark. With these facts be-

myself, as well as to the people of
