CHURCHvILLE, March 24.-The old
saying is being proved true: "Winter
fingers in the lap of Spring." She hest
tates SO long to take her departure, that she
reminds us of beau taking his leave of

Wilson to Man Jordan and John Lewis
Smith. Wilson then sold the land he got

Cease, 80 there seems to be good deal of
trading in real estate. Mr.. j. W. Burton
sold the property he had in jennings Gap
to Harvey Taliaferro.
