quaint you with some of the doings here.
Health is moderately good, still there
is some sickness in our neighborhvod
Mr.. Billie Garrison has been quite sick
for some days past, but is now able to he

his attack of bilious fever.
Mr.. John McKee,, son of William Nc
Rec of this place, has just returned from
the west. He reports crops as being ex"
ira fine in the country that he has beer
over.
r. W. Carlson has not started his mill
yet, aud will not until corn gets sufi-
cienily hard to feed. The lumber outlook
has been rather gloomy for mill-men for
some time past, but they. like the rest OF
US, look forward and hope fo- better
times and more encouraging prices.
We have = very good school being
taught here by Mr.. Charles J. Wright, OF
Troy, Tenn. Mr.. Wright is young N an

girls by catching their shadows.
The prospect for q boantiful corn crop
was never more promising than at pres
ent. The farmers ore happy and have
smiles all over their faces. No fears Of
famine this year. A smiling Providsnce
has blessed the people Of this section with
splendid crops at time when they would
be the most appreciated, for a failure in
the crops this year would have been a
failure of the whole country.
