For lime 60 to D. W. Hardee, the Hus-
tier.
Zone of the Finest"
Mr.. Sol. G. Satterwhite, of Gillburg,
called US up over the telephone Satur-
day and asked US to be on the lookout
for his wagon when it reached town,
saying he had sent US a specimen oc
the watermelons he grows. Judge our
surprise and pleasure when we found it
81 pound ''fellow''-as large around
as an ink barrel. 1t was in fine con.
dltion, sweet and juicy-in fact we
never ate finer one. That it was en-
joyed and appreciated to the fullest de-
gree friend Satterwnite would not have
to be assured could he have seen the
respectful consideration paid the dis
tlngulshed guest for the time being by
our numerous and melon-loving
household. If evidence had been
needed that Mr.. Satterwhite is a cap
ltal farmer as we'll as good merchant
and an active and energetic politician
this would be sufficient.
GauZe Vests. Nice and cheap.

Hardee will treat you kindly, and his
prices are SO fascinating, you will pur-
chase, thereby saving money for the fam
lily.

Resolutions Adopted BY Henderson
PRESBYTERIAN Church.
At congregational meeting of the
Henderson Presbyterian Church, held
Sunday morning, Aug. 9th, 1896, the
following resolutions were adopted:
WHEREAS, Rev. w. d. Morton, d. d.,
our beloved pastor for the past five
wears, has been called to the Evanvelistic
work in the Synod of Mississippi, and
has requested our church to unite in ask
ing Albemarle Presbytery to dissolve the
pastoral relation between him and the
Henderson church; and
WHEREAS. We have agreed to said re-
quest,
Resolved, LIST, That we feel very thank
full for the work done under Gods provi-
dence by DR.. Morton, as our pastor dur
his stay among us, both in the pulpit
and among our people. That while we
believe that he is specially gifted and
fitted for the Evangelistic work, as is
shown by the great success that has al
ways followed his work in this line, we
part with him with many regrets and
| are satisfied that it will be very hard for
us to fill his place in our work.
Resolved End, That we wish DR.. Morton
| even greater success in his new field OF
usefulness and pray Gods richest bless
| ing upon him and his family wherever
| God in His providence may cast their lot
