DR., Bosworth was at Shiloh last Sum
day and gave US a very interesting talk.
His address was replete with good advice,
directed principally to the young. 1t
was the Doctors first visit to this section,
and he made many friends, who would
be delighted to have him repeat it.
Children's Day will be celebrated ut Ru.
hannah next Saturday. The efficient
Superintendent, Mr.. Joe. G. Winter, Is
leaving nothing unturned to make the
day an enjoyable one.. Prof. Willis will
lead the music, which, to say the least,
insures success for that part OF the
program.
The health Of our community is very
good 80 far as we know. A son Of Mr..
], II. Brock has been quite sick with
fever, but is convalescent.
Our crops are needing rain, especially
corn. The grass has about all been kill
ed and if we are blessed with good sea-
sons from now on bountiful harvest
will be realized. The best crops Of cotton
that we have noticed are those Of Messrs.
D. T. Thompson and Baylis Cooley. The
latter named gentleman seems to be
making quite success with his convict
labor. His farm is managed with excel
lent Judgment, and if no providential
disaster comes is bound to succeed.
A tenant house on Mr.. e. j. Earle's
place was burned last Saturday. 1t was
occupied by negro, and all that ne had
WAS lost, himself and wife being In the
field at work at the time. We learn that
one of the small children, who was left
to take care of the house, set it on fire by
chasing bug around with q lighted
splinter.
Miss Ida Carter died at Dallas, Ga,
about the Goth of June from measles.
She was the eldest daughter of Mr.. &. W.
Carter, who recently moved from TINS
section to the above named place., Miss
Ida was about Is years OF age and was a
most excellent young lady, the pride OF
church at Shiloh about two years ago and
exemplified the true christian in her
every dey life. It is hard in such cases
for: us frail creatures to bow to the will OF
Him who doeth all things well, but the
time is coming when the veil will be
removed and then we shall know as we
are known.
The pastor, Bro. Thornton, was accom-
panied last Saturday and Sunday to
Shiloh by Rev. J. r. W. Vernon, who is
we'll known to many of the readers Of the
INTELLIaENcER. He preached Oh Satur-
day and Sunday, and though getting
quite frail, retains to remarkable degree
his vigor and perseverance OF bygone
years.
Prof. Willis will teach singing school
at Shiloh ten days, commencing next
Monday, the 18th inst.
An effort will be made soon TO get an
eight or tan months school IN this neigh
borhood. Some Of our friends are awake
to the fact that school to do any good
must continue for at least eight months;
We trust their efforts may be crowned
with success. AS the twig is bent 30 the
tree will grow. We are responsible, or
will be held 80, for the future of this
country, and If our children are not I'M
pressed and taught while young, depior-
able state Of affairs will exist ere long.
Miss Berta Holland recently spent some
time at Lavonia, Ga, with relatives and
friends.
Miss Minnie Burriss, of your city, has
returned after spending some time in our
community with friends.
Miss Kate Flemming lately visited her
grand fathers family In Oconee County.
Miss Ada Flemming has returned after
several days sojourn in the city of An
derson, as the guest Col. Rucker.
