Fellow Citizens of Gibson county:
Having settled and paid off all liabili>
ties on account of being Trustee of
your county, do not feel satisfied,
nor do | think it would be right to re-
tire without word of thanks to those
that so kindly supported me for six
years and by their suffrage elevated
me to one of the most responsible and
honorable places of trust in your gift,
and gave me the opportunity to make
for myself living during the time, and
little home, the basis of future sup
port. Comparatively unknown, un-
tried, poor and almost helplessly Grip
pied, | came before you, you gave as
assistance in my time of great need
and my heart swells with gratitude
to the people of Gibson county for
their confidence and prolonged sup
port, and grateful remembrance
will ever fill my bosom for the many
kind favors l have received at their
hands. l endeavored faithfully to
discharge every duty resting upon me,
nor violate nor betraY any trust re-
posed in me. The above certificate
and receipt shows that l have paid
off and discharged my every financial
obligation and returned the office
you gave me back to you with clear
receipt and no arrears; and now fell
low citizens and friends who so gen
erously supported and lady friends
who ever SO kindly encouraged me. l
try to discharge another and binding
obligation, that of returning to you
my thanks and my grateful feelings
for all you have done for me. Please
accept this testimonial of my appreci-
alton of your kindness and rest as
sured that the warmest feelings of
gratitude for all that have received
at your hands will ever fill my heart.
Respectfully,

MONTEZUMA.
Editor Exchange:

Editor Exchange:
AS your paper is welcome visi-
tol to me, | will write a short letter
and you may insert it or deposit it in
the waste basket, as you see proper.
l have found that Montezuma is quite
a pleasant little village; the people
are very moral, sociable and generous
hearted. The Jackson District High
School is located here, under the
charge of Rev. B. F. Blackman and
Prof. Z. r. Williams. Our school is
in fourishing condition and increas-
ing every week. We have two soci.
cites in school. The Literary society
have an exercise one Friday night
aud the Paine Polemic society the
next Friday night. We have five
boys from near Milan, viz: Luther
Mathis, 10. Mathis, Jim Barham,
Banks McKelvy and T. L. Adams.
| think this is one of the best places
for young men who desire to engage
in literary pursuit in the state. There
is not any intoxicating liquors sold in
the county, and very seldom hear an
oath sworn. We have preaching
twice month by our pastor, Rev. B.
F. Blackman, class meeting twice a
month and prayer meeting Wednes
day nights, also young mems pray
er meeting Saturday night. There
are several young men studying theol-
ogy, preparing for the ministry.
Farmers are busy preparing for the
new crops. The frost did not do any
damage to the fruit crop in this Sec
ton. The fields and forests are green,
and the "croakers" in the neighbor.
ing ponds declare that spring has come
and is going. Hoping that this epis>
tie from "school boy will not be
criticised, but placed in rather Sc.
cluded corner, with many good
wishes for the Exchange, / remain
very respectfully. B. M.
