I.ynnville.
By LYNDA.

For ten years, week by week /
have given the public the happen
ings in this community. Without
fear or favor have given the facts
as they occurred and as saw or
heard them. Many mistakes and
errors have crept into them as into
everything human and now after
reviewing these ten years can
lay my hand on my heart and say
that no word has ever in all these
long ten years been written in NAL
ice toward any one. There may
have been errors OF the head but
none of the heart,
For few weeks past LYNDA has
kindly relieved me and will con-
tinue to write. / have written the
stock notes and will continue to
give her my assistance and occa-
sIonally to write as in this case
when she ls away. She will as
the pencil of ready writer.
While speaking of correspon-
dents allow me to commend the
suggestion of one of your quill
drivers that The CITIZEN corps
meet some where ia cool shady
grove in May and have a rousing
time. Oh how | would like to
meet "Jeems ami Table leg" and
your old lang sayne correspondents
with these new issues "Sweet later
Tim Twiggers" and 'Peck's bad
boy" and the host Of young and
rising geniuses that write for the
beloved old CITIZEN. BY all means
have the correspondents Congress.
| am no slickler Tor time or place
tut count me 10 anywhere or any
time for the congress What say

Death from u human standpoint
has no admirers but TO lie chris, :
ian some deaths are as but the
opening of the full corn, OF such
was the death of Joseph Briggs and
wife They died Thursday night
in few hours of each other of
pneumonia. He Sc, she SO. They
had been married 81 years and
leave great number OF decend-
ents who are among our best citi-
zens. They were inferred in one
grave Friday evening 10 their fam
lily grave yard after appropriate
services conducted by Revs. Maloy
Bridges and Groves. The whole
community turned out to pay their
tribute to their worth. Paul never
put any virture in his long oata-
iogue that these people did not
possess in large degree. They
professed and possessed religion
in their early youth and were bright
and shining lights. They were
among the writer's warmest friends.
