0 Esq. 10. Wilson will open school
i Monday at Elkridge church.
Miss Maggie Hudson of Mar
: shall county is visiting Mrs. J. B.
Mccall this week.
Mrs. Nancy Evans, mother of
the very numerous Evans family,
aged 80 years, got seriously scalded
Thursday by kettle of water fall
ing off the fire. Her feet and ankles
were very painfully scalded. She is
remarkably hale for her years. 1t
is said she yet knits a sock day.
| Mr.. Jas. Wilson has very pain
| full rising on his hand known as
Whitlow, which often do not get
well in a year. II
Miss Ruth Blackburn of Co
lumbia arrived Tuesday and took
charge Of the music class in the
Academy. She is reputed to be
very excellent teacher and we well
come her to Lynnville as an acquisi-
ton to society.
/ Miss Ella Farmer opened the |
spring term of her school with 20
students in attendance.
Mrs. DR.. Walker is visiting her
sister, Mrs. DR.. White, in Pulaski
this week.
Rev. Mr.. Groves of Fayetteville
preached Sunday at the Presby-
terrain church at Buford's. They
think of calling him to fill the
vacancy this year at that church.
The Presbyterian churches at Blu
ford's and l4ynnville are both vacant
now. This would certainly offer a
good field for some able minister
and we wouldmuch like to see these
pulpits filed every Sunday.
DIR. Humphreys of Wilson coun-
ty came down Saturday to take
charge Of the practice left vacant
by the death of the lamented DR..
Monroe Hudson near Griffis' store.
Esq. j. NJ. Shields has been in
poor health for two or three weeks. !
We hope he may soon recover and
be long spared to us for an ex- :
ample of upright life.
Esq. r. S. Montgomery, our {
worthy postmaster, who has been !
paralysed badly for year and who |
has attended to his various duties +
despite his great affection, that
would have stopped thousands of i
younger men and laid them up, was c
taken worse last week and is under q
We hope he too may {
soon be up and out again. u
--Thos. E. Smith of Bethel was b
IN the neighborhood the past week Fl
and spent two nights with his friend,
w. II. West. He is an energetic r
,aw-mill man. !,
Some documents came through r,
,he mail this week addressed to
Smith d Tate. No such firm was f.
known, but Prof. Smith says it is
Charles Smith d Brown Tate and !.
hat it is a counting firm. If so, =
hey will make strong team and y
will keep business brisk in the =,
line. Who says now our " "
own amt ahead2 At other places = =
The boys go at it sly; here they y
boldly go into counting on business y
principles. =;
Notice of a nice party at T. w,
Evans last Monday night was
handed me for publication with a Il
list of ladies in attendance. The =
ladies' were handsome and intelIi= :
gent, as those who are acquainted y
with the following names will testi-
Fy: Misses Matte Kersey, Mamie Y
Cannon, Fannie Dodson, Lena :
Story, Susie Cannon, Mamie West, ?
Susie Gilbreath, Lizzie Brown, Mary Il
Dodson, Georgia Williamson, Mag
gle Bray and Ella West.
In justice to the editor of the
CITIZEN I desire to state that he
published all of the articles in full
written IN response to Prognosti-
Gator. u
If once an Indian eats salt with II
you he will never either do you y
public or private injury. His sense h
IF gratitude and honor is too strong s.
'or that; but often it is otherwise a
with the paleface. "Ino & Uno"
lor DON'T Know would be better) g
asst week went out of their way to o
strike at Lynnville with a poor h
scurrilous slur about ''great proph- b
ct" etc. The whole thing is too
puerile to repeat, but 1 want to say b
that the gentlemen mistake the mis- "
sion. of a correspondent. 1t is to ]
build up our neighborhoods and do s.
all the good we can, and never try to
pull down nor make any invidious r
nor express envy or I
jealousy at the success of any other i
community. LYNN. h
