Thirty Years Ago.

-
DR.. Edward S. Joynes. of South Caro-
lima College, Columbia. S. c.. was in
the city yesterday. He addressed the
pupils of Rollins Institute last night
on the subject, "Hollins in Olden
Times" The doctor was professor at
Hollins thirty years ago, and came
back to see the daughters of the girls
he used to tutor. He told quite an in
teresting story regarding Roanoke's
history, which Is as follows: In sthe
summer Of 1865. just after the close Of
the session at Hollins, he left there
riding broken down army horse on
his way to Pittsylvania county where
his family was located. Upon reach.
ing Big Lick. the present site OF Roam
oke, he found that the Big Lick sta.
ton had been bnrned, and he was COM
PEELED to leave the road quarter of
mile before he could find single hu-
man habitation at which he could OBJ
tain lnforma ton as to the direction in
which he was to travel. The doctor
says ne cannot help but marvel at the
wonderful transformation that has
taken place since then.

TAX RECEIVERS BOOKS.

We find the tax receivers books made
out neatly, and correctly kept. They
show the taxable property of the county
co be $2,580,593. Tax on professions,
$40; poll $3,084. We find a good deal
of property returned for less than it's
value and have assessed same as, in our
judgment, was right.
