Hattie. eldest daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
E. P. Earle, died at Andersonville on last
Monday morning, at half-past 9 o'clock,
aged 8 years. She took suddenly i'll on
Saturday night, and suffered intense pain
until the Angel Of Death came to her
relief Monday morning. She was a
sweet. alniable girl, and her sudden
death is a sad blow to her devoted parents,
who have many sympathizers in their
sore bereavement. Her remains were in.

Mr.. Albert Bowie, of Corner Township,
made this year, with one mule, fifteen
bales of cotton, averaging 470 pounds to
the bale. Also. one hundred and twenty
five bushels of corn, forty bushels of
wheat and nearly enough oats to feed his
mule next year. This is hard to beat, and
goes to show that It is as easy to make a
living in: Anderson County as in Texas or
anywhere else. if you go about it in the
right way. We will remark that Mr..
Bowie is single man, and would advise
some of our girls to take his case into
consideration before leap year expires.
