were addressed by Capt. Bruce in u
ten minutes speech, which was an
swercd appropriately by Mr.. Perry.

a. Card.

In entering the second year of
the real estate business, we are sor-
ry to state that it has fallen short
of what we expected. We have
worked under many discouraging
circumstances. While we have had
the encouragement of great many
of the best citizens in the county,
still we feel that we have not had
the hearty cooperation we should
have had from the public at large.
But, in spite of all discouragements
we have done good work for Boil
ivar and Hardeman County. Our
correspondence and literature de-
scriptive of the County have cover
ed all the northern states from
Maine to Oregon. We shall go on
doing the best possible with the
limited support received. We hope
yet to be great power in infuenc-
ing immigration and manufacturing
to this section. We are satisfied
from letters that we have received
that we will have large number OF
people here this fall and winter
looking for farms and for manufac
turing sites. Of course we would
like to receive the generous support
of the entire people of the county
and thereby be enabled to broader
the sphere of our usefulness; there
fore, while entering on our second
year, we solicit the cooperation O
all those who desire to build up tn,
country. Respectfully,

Death Of Col. NuckO11s.

Col. VIM. Nuckolls, an ole
and highly esteemed citizen
of Hardeman County, died al
his residence, one mile
northwest Of Bolivar, We'd
nesday, August II, 1897, Of
cancer of the mouth. His re-
mains were buried in the fam
lily graveyard Thursday.
The funeral service was con-
Quoted by Rev. G. c.. McDan-
iel, and attended by a large
crowd.
The death of Col. Nuckolls
removes one of our oldest
citizens. Had he lived until
the 18th of this month, he
would have reached the ripe
age of SO years. He was born
in Robertson County, Tenn,
August Is, 1904, and moved
to Hardeman in 1924. In
1852 he was united in mar
riage to Miss Zarilda Cotton,
who with four children-Mrs.
q. I. Ingram, Miss Bette
Nuckolls, Messrs. n. G.. and
L. A. Nuckolls-survives him.
Col. NuckOlls was man
ofsound judgement, powerful
physique, iron costitution, and
indomitable energy. BY econ
omy and attention to bus
mess, he amassed a fortune.
For many years he was sue
cessfully engaged in the saw
mill business. Later, and up
to the time of his death, he
followed agricultural pur-
suits. Less than one year
ago he superintendent and as.
sisted in the cultivation of
his farm. Col. Nuckolls was
a lifelong Democrat and new
er failed to vote. He despised
the latter day heresies. His
last visit to Bolivar was
