Convinced that few dots from this
neighborhood might interest some of
your readers, l will give your valua-
bic paper few items from this settle.
ment; such as can be gathered from
general observation.
The health of this section is inst as
good as could be wishcd-only few
colds, such as we usually hear of at
this season. Chills, fevers and pneu.
monia are not prevalent, although
many had thought the season would
be sickly one.
1t may not be amiss to say that cot
ton picking has commenced in ear
nest, and much of the staple will soon
be on the market. The farmers have
begun to sow tnrnips and other Fall
crops, and large yield is expected if
the season holds out as in the fore part
of the year.
Rev. Mr.. Robertson preached to a
congregation of about so last Sunday
at a church recently organized near
Indian Greek. The name given to
the church is "Kitchen Greek Church. y
His test was from the passage of the
scriptures which reads-"Ye are nv
friends if ye do Whatsoever command
YOU" He Interested his audience and
caused many Of them to think serious
ly of the future.
Sometime ago the planters here or

is expected much good will follow.
The Order is a secret one, and out.
slders are but little acquitted with its
inside workings.
Well, Mr.. Editor, I would like yonr
readers to know what pleasant place
we have to live in. 1t is somewhat a
rolling country. We have some fine
streams running through this part OF
the Parish-sncll as Bayon Flaggon,
Big Greek and Clear Creek, which, in
the summer months, abound with front
and perch, which affords excellen,
sport for fishermen. Strangers and
permanent home seekers will find it ia
their advantage to make this part OF
the country visit when on an inspec-
ting tour. They will he we'll treated,
finding clever people on every hand
who will bid them welcome. We
have two good schools, where order is
kept and the children are we'll taught
There is also a church near by, where
we enjoy sermon at least one Sun.
day in each month.
For fear my letter is growing toe
long and in consequence may find its
way in the waste basket, / will close
hy wishing the DEMOCRAT success
and long life. Yours,
MoNTAK.
