harvest. Try it and see what the re-
suits will be.
A very pleasant and unique enter
talnment was given on Thursday eve
ming last at the residence of DR.. and
Mrs. }. II. Tucker, by their daughter
Miss Lila, in honor of her guests Misses
Wise and Urquhart. There were a
goodly number of young people present,
an excellent spread had been prepared,
and the evening was passed in a man
ner that will long be remembered by
those who attended, as one of the most
enjoyable that has occurred in Hen
derson this summer.
The Presbyterian Sunday-school will
make an excursion into the country.
by private cOnvcyanccs, and have their
annual pic mic tomorrow. They will
go to D. Y. Cooper's farm, where I'M
der the outrageous boughs of the
stately oaks the little folks can enjoy
a pleasant outing. There is an expan-
sive grove and adjacent woods, but no
pond or creek to keep anxious parents
in suspense lest their young hopeful
should get drowned OF splash in the
water and spoil his Sunday clothes.
Last week we mentioned the serious
illness of Mr.. and Mrs. Hugh H.
Workman, of typhoid fever. Their
infant daughter Florence Edenia, con-
tracted the fever soon after the mother
and father were stricken down, and
her condition gradually grew worse
until yesterday morning when she died,
aged four months and one week. The
little body was buried at the home Mr..
f. w. Workman, near town, at 5
O'Clock in the afternoon, taking place
from the residence of Mr.. George
Houghtaling.
The excursion run by Messrs. Free.
land & Ferrell from Durham to Nor
folk last Thursday, was we'll patron
lied. They carried large crowd down
to the Twin-cities by the sea, and every.
thing possible was done by the mana
gers for the comfort and pleasure of
the eXcursionists. The only complaint
we have heard was that there were not
coaches enough to accommodate the
large number of people, causing them
to be too much crowded. But this we
suppose was not the fault of the gentle.
men in charge of the train.
