Mullet is Back Again at TOkeena.

DEAR INTELL1aENcER: AS have been
absent for some time will now let the
many readers hear from this burg.
Everything is lively; the people all show
happiness and content on their faces. II
seems the night and storms causing dark
ness have passed away and bright sunny
day has arrived, invigorating the poor
farming class filling them with joy and
gladness which brings about peace OF mind
and happiness. Blessed be the day OF
such. The cotton is most all gathered and
large per cent. marketed. or course. q
shorter crop than common is fact already
known, but the advance In price more
than makes up for that. The corn crop is
bountiful, and the way 1t is being shucked
and cribbed is astonishing. Good old corn
shuckings, where hog and hominy abounds,
is the place to have fun, where We find a
host of old men and young, and occasion
your scribe feel young again to be among
such.
The health of this community is the very
best.
The new glnnery erected by Messrs.
Prichard & Lemmona, Is doing thriving
business.
Mr.. Charley Phillips hss bought Mr..
MoLemmons' house and lot at this place,
lust in front of Mr.. W. 8. Prichard, and
will move to it.
Mr.. Sullivan's new dwelling is nearing
completion. It is dandy.
Mr.. Joe McCleskey will soon move into
his commodious and handsome building,
which Is just completed.
Mr.. Charley Sullivan left for Greenville
few DAYS ago, where be is staying with
his grandfather.
Mr. Oscar Sullivan speaks of attending
the business college in Nashville, Tenn,
In few weeks.
The 4th Sunday, October 9th, was day
to be long remembered by the many peo-
pie Of this and adjoining communities. A
nicely arranged program was rendered,
making up the Children's Missionary Day.
The forenoon was taken up with music,
recitations and addresses. Prof. N. B..
Brissie, of Greenville, being present. and
with the assistance of our good friend, Mr..
w. N. Bruce, of Townyille, entertained the
audience with pleasant and charming
music A collection WAS then taken,
amounting to $l4 60, af'er which dinner
was served upon the grounds, which
was enjoyed by all. Cross Roads Church
is noted for we'll filled baskets, and plenty
of little missionary beggars, for little
country church. After dinner the crowd
returned to the church. where Rev: j. f.
Singleton preached forcible and able ser
mon, from the 4th verse, 5th chapter OF
Isaiah, after which he administered the
ordinances Of the Lords Supper. Every,
thing being q success, the people departed
with glad hearts.
The members of Cross Roads Church
unanimously called Rev. j. F. Singleton
as their pastor for another year. We think
they are wise 10 their choice, for Rev.
Singleton did more good than any other
pastor has done for the upbuilding of the
church, and all seem to love him more and
more. He has consented to serve them as
pastor another year.
Mr.. John Cain. who had the misfortune
of getting his hand badly cut up while
working in the Oakway gin recently, la
improving at this writing.
Mr.. J. s. Isbell and family will move to
Piedmont soon.
Hello, "Mr. Ned Needle" of Brushy
Creek. Wake up. We like to hear from
you often. Keep on the look out for this
scribe Will be In Piedmont between this
and Christmas, and be may call around the
Brushy Creek section for "Mr. Needle" !"
Here is one true report on young MAJ
of this up country: MIR. - and bis daugh'
ter went to meeting one night recently.
Her father told her not to let any boy &C.
company her home without his consent,
and 10, as they started home, Mr.. L. over
takes and asked Miss - for her company
home. She informs him of her fathers
charge. He turns to Mr.. - and says,
"may-may-I see your daughter-daughter-
homer He being 30 impressed with
young Mr.. L g feelings regarding the case
consented. Ifyou want to see Mr.. L. dis
appear, ask him if he ever said anything to
father about going home with girl and
be will hit the grit.
Success to the INTELLIaENCER.
