ANDREWS.

Andrews, Oct. 13.-Meeting still GO
ing on at Union Grove, with large
crowds in attendance.
The public schools will all close in
our district this week, except the one
taught by Mr.. Wallace Hardison, who
will continue one week longer because
he had to suspend week recently, on
account of 80 many cases Of diptheria
near. All of our teachers have given
entire satisfaction, and patrons and
pupils regret that they can not continue.
Mr.. Ezell's clover huller is in our
midst.
One of the convicts escaped from the
road guards here last Tuesday, and has
not been captured yet. He was "a trus-
ty," and yet it seems that he was not to
be trusted. Work is progressing nicely
on the new pike, although they have
few hands. The crusher is to be
brought out tomorrow, we learn.
Last Wednesday while the family of
Mr.. John Moore was away from home,
their house and all the contents were
destroyed by fire. OF course they do
not know how it caught Mr.. Overton
was called out with his hounds, but
could strike no trail. The house was
the property of Mr.. Charley Jones. No
insurance on anything. The nighbors
have contributed very literally to their
necessities.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jim Huckaby were
called upon to give up one of their
precious little jewels last Monday, Oct.
5. Little Sackie was the pet of the
household, and was at the interesting
age of three years. Her death was more
shocking from the fact that she was
only sick about twenty-four hours, and
her suffering very severe, as she had
diptheria. Another one of their chill
dren has the same disease now, but in
mild form.
Mr.. Jim Carrigan and Miss Rebecca
Childrey were quietly married at the
residence of Rev. II. A. Gray last Satur-
day morning at half after nine o'clock.
They were nicely entertained by Mr..
and Mrs. Rob. Chilurey, with an excel
lent dinner the same day. They will re-
side near Blue Springs. Though they
waited late in life to take this important
step, we trust they will be all the more
happy.
Mrs. Davis is still at the bedside of
her daughter, Mrs. Dooley, who we
learn, is in a critical condition.
Mr.. N. A. Nicholson is now quite
sick.
Mr.. John Atkeisson, wife and babe
are all "chilling."
