In resHming the role of cores
pendent, allow me to tender my
grateful thanks to that erudite Greek
scholar, "Chester Dale" for the
fascinating way in which he used |
his famous, facetiOus faber for me. |
Had l such to command l would !
never trouble the public with my |
scribble. May the future Mrs. Dale
never charge Chester. May he be
the next Chester to occupy the
White House and may his dale
with milk and honey flow"
Mr.. and Mrs. Hanserd of Elk
mont visited Mrs. HIS father, Esq. |
J. NJ. Shields, during the closing
exercises of Prof Campbell's school.
Mrs. Hanserd was long our music
teacher, as Miss Weassie Shields, |
and last year she was induced to 90
to Alabama to take a desirable |
position as teacher. The result was
she was captured by the Hon.
county superintendent Of education
IN Limestone county. From what |
we know and hear we are sure she |
has fallen into good hands. 1t is
said we have now about twenty !
young ladies who want situations in
Alabama as teachers.
We sent up large and intelli-
gent delegation to the Nashville

sanction of everybody who is capable |
Of an intelligent opinion. The boys |
tell many good things that happened |
there in the run and jam of 5000 |
crowd. They tell how that our es-
teemed friend Col Mac. Alexander
was put up at a hotel where they
we're packed from cellar to garnet.
Col. a, as is his custom, arose early
and washed his face and failed to
find a towel. He called in stem
Lorian voice for a towel till he
walked up all the delegations from
Carter to Shelby, and just as a dozen
walters rushed in with towels he
finished wiping ON Owen Smiths
1uster. Col told them to 90 to
with their towels, he was from Big
creek wherelhalf the folk wiped on
shirts and he rather liked busters.
