That the people of this community
are happy with the consolation that
there is AN elegant Sulphur Spring stu
ated in their midst is fact unquestiOn-
able. On farm belonging to Mr..
Leonard Hoover, located about one mile
from the State ruad and also bordering
on the Ambrose ferry road. 1t has long
been known that IA spring of inexhaust-
able white sulphur water has existed.
| Indeed the small area of land that sur
rounds this spring, not including above
II halt-acre, is peculiarly blessed with its
variety of waters embracing fine free
stone spring and salt well, which
.
of eighty feet, and furnishes many Il
strange and amusing anec,lote for the
speculation of this pOsteriOr age as to
the rude manner i'm which our fore
fathers manufactured their salt. Rub
bish has been teemed into this "great
hole" Of late years until now il has be-
come only Il fitting resort for the bull
frog and mOccasin. The owner Of the
land and Mr.. VIM. Trogland, II tenant,
recently dug the sulphur spring to the
depth of five feet and placed i'm il Il neat
gum; and the water found To be of such
Il quality rs To attract and readily COM
mend itselftO the many having resOrted
there during the past few weeks.
Among the prominent and regular WIS.,
itors to the spring we may mention the
following gentlemen and their families,
viz: Rev. j. :. Coleman, G.. l.. Field, Il.
+. Graves, Josh Lewis, j. ID. HOlbrOoks,
David Rogers also Miss Minnie Eden,
Benny Fields and 50 many others that
space will not admit of our mentioning.
The water is pronounced by competent
judges equal in every respect To that of
the White Sulphur Springs of this
county, while the facilities as To Local
ton and convenience of parties attend
ing from distance might he easily
rendereddecided superior. WewOuld
recommend any enterprising company
seeking a reliable investment to take
hold of these springs. Come and see
