NE1oHBoRHooD NOTES.
Happenings Reported by Our Special
Correspondents.
SANDY RIDGE, STOKES COUNTY.

SANDY RIDGE, Feb. 2.-Stock law is
still the theme in our little village.
There are three petitions being car
lied round for the repeal Of the law.
1t is claimed that the election was il
legal, as there were only nineteen
days notice given, thirty days being
the legal time. 1t is thought that the
law will be repealed, as some of the
most influential men are doing all in
their power against it. If it takes as
much to fence the township as it is
Thought. it will be the best for the
majority of the people.
We are to have IL new Hard SHELF
Baptist church, at Buffalo, mile or
/ two from our village. The contract
is out and the orders are that it must
be completed by the Association, the
third Sunday in May They expect
to put up a convenient and commo-
diou, building on the old stand.
Some of the most substantial farmers
are pushing it ahead, so we have no
fears of its not being completed in
time. All the readers of The SENTI-
MEL are cordially invited to attend
the opening services at the Associa
ton.
A sad accident occurred few miles
from here few days ago.
Mr.. Fletcher Cardwell, of Madison,
died suddenly at Mr.. Thomas Mar
tins. He was addicted to the use Of
strong drink and had been drinking
deeply for some days. He sent off
and got some new whisky and drank
it and in a few hours was dead. 1t is
thought that the whiskey was adul
terated and poisoned him.
Mr.. Minter, a Campbellite minister,
opens series of meetings here to-
morrow. The meetings will continue
for several days.
The outlook for the present wheat
crop is not good. Wheat is scarce
and is bringing a good price now and
advancing.
