wheat and oats were threshed and cut
down. while fruit on trees were knocked
Oft, and garden vegetables demolished.
The damage done is distressing and MANY
tenants whose cotton was destroyed, have
thrown up the sponge quit work and
gone off to hunt day work some where else.

The pretty pony belonging to little Miss
Katie Anderson, daughter of Mr.. S: A.
Anderson, was billed by negro boy, Tom
Wellington, last Monday afternoon. The
pony was coming home from pasture al
| College Hill and had in playful manner
| scampered ahead Of the other stock. The
negro boy, standing idly on the roadside
picked up rock, and through pure ma
liciousness, threw it at the pony, striking
it between the eyes, crushing its skull L
dropped dead as if shot. Miss Katis
priced her pony very much and is in tear;
over her loss.
