HENLEY, Tex. Dec. 2s, 1888.
Christmas came, and no did the heavy
rain, which has put the roads almost i'm.
psssable again. The long talkeed Of Christ
mas tree was put up at O. o. Reeds, super.
lnteudent of Sunday. school. Rev. ]. w.
MeCsrty gave a short lecture. The tree
was we'll arranged and well filled with
Christmas presents for tho Sunday school
children. The children were all there;
their parents were there; their friends and
neighbors were all there; 10 fact everybody
claimed to DO present. Santa Claus made
his appearance with his long white beard
and red eyes. Everything seemed to be
moving IN grand style. But bark! About
this time we began to hear loud and bois.
ferrous talking, and we soon found to our
sorrow that in addition to everybody else
the Devil was there, also. In the shape Of 0
wine Jug and the wine bibber. The pro-
ceedings from that on cannot be described
by your humble correspondent. for my con.
tempt for such is so intense that can't
give it justice. Suffice 1t to say that Justice
Crows mill is going to try to grind out
justice to them tomorrow. Hope they may
get it.
On Christmas night there was sociable
ut MIR. Il. ID. Watson's, which passed off
to the satisfaction of all, none of the wine
bibbers being present.
