days-as indeed he has been for some
time. He is making up his report as
referee in the case ofthe Raleigh Paper

matters pressing on him gives him a
hand full.
MIR. Henry M. Cannon, of Rich
mond for some years popular citizen
OF Henderson, where he was engaged
III the leaf tobacco business, came out
this week to visit friends and enjoy

1t will be gratifying to the many
trIo do Of <hnk
DR.. Il. &. Debnam, to know that he is
recovering from his recent severe i'll
ness. His condition was such as to
cause his friends serious apprehension
for awhile. 1t is the hope of all that
Dr. Debnam may soon be restored to
health again, for Henderson does not
contain a better citizen.
DR.. Willis Lewis, who has been con-
fined to his room for some time, has
been gradually growing weaker
since Sunday. His atfliction is due
mainly to a general break down of the
old age, accompanied by partial paral-

and surely tie sands of life are run
ming out and his family realize that the
end cannot be prolonged far at best.

learn that his wife is fully restored to
health again.
