Judge Yocum's term of office as county
Judge of Alexander. When next the county
court opens the newly elected judge will

and mos, talented musicians were present
and they filed the grand parlors Of the
magnificent residence with melody which
would have aroused the envey even of the
Greek oidess of song The entertainment
WAS inaugurated and managed by the
ladies OF the Episcopal church with their
usual brilliant success 10 such matters II
