Buck Wheelock's farm we found an en-

born and reared in this coun-

as an affable, charitable, intel

ly, partially paralyzed a few
years ago, but the affection did
not affect his mental powers,
which are as acute as ever.
The new butcher house is To-
calized to-day. A visit there a

The room was remarkably neat,
the meat as clean. lat and in

& A petition numerously
signed was presented to the last
County Court, asking for the
construction of a bridge across
Elk River, above the mouth of
Mulberry Creek. A bridge there
would be Of great convenience
to a large scope of country.
The residents in the southeast
ern portion of this county
would be saved considerable
travel, and be afforded a more
direct route, when required to
attend court or to pass on the
north side Of the river, by its
construction. The OBSERVER
has heretofore at different times
urged the construction Of a pas
sage way across the river, in
the eastern part of the county,
as due to large and worthy
portion of the people of this
county. We hope that the
County Court will favorably
consider .i1e subject.
