ave years ago he bought piece of land
IN oak Hill district, and with his ak

gone hand in hand together at the

more and more as they journeyed down
the stream of time. Mr.. Joiner never
held public Office. and never had any
desire to hold one. but even now he can
take his rifle and drive the cross as
often, or take his net and catch as
many fish, or take his agate and plumb
