In a Sad Condition.

Last Thursday morning Mr.. Josh
Wright, an old and well known citizen,
took his gun and started off squirrel
hunting. He did not return at night
and his wife became alarmed and sent
to look for him. Nothing could be
seen or heard of him and the search
was kept up during the next day. Still
no tidings of his whereabouts could be
learned. Saturday afternoon he was
found in the woods at a spot within
200 yards of which one Of the search
ing party had been the day before.
He was paralyzed On one side from his
head down and was in an utterly help
less condition. Two days and nights
he had been lying on the damp ground
while the weather was disagreeably
chilly to one who was able to walk
about. He was taken home and Drs.
Cheatham were summoned to his bed
side. He was speeches. and from the
effects of the paralytic stroke, together
with hunger and lying out on the
! ground exposed to the cold and damp
his condition was a very sad and pitia-
BILE one. At this writing he is improv-
ing somewhat, but the case is Of that
| character that but little can be said o.
what the final result may be.

Henderson will have fine opportu-

persons are expected to be here and
our Baptist friends are endeavoring to
find homes for all the visitors during
their stay in our midst. Half the num-
Der will be provided for by the men,
bership of the Baptist congregation
and places are wanting for the remain
ing $50. Let our citizens throw their
doors open and welcome the visitors to
their homes. And this we know will
be done. There are no more hospita-
BILE people in the world than those of
Henderson, and all that is needed to
find homes for any sort of visiting body
is to let the fact be known that homes
are needed. There will be visitors
here from every part of the State, and
we have no fears as to the favorable
opinions that may be formed about our
place and people. Let us welcome
them right royalty.
