and some of his Holmes county Gus

of, and some of his Holmes county Gus
toners told him of this spring, recon-
mended it's water and he came to test
it. He says there were no buildings or
other improvements then where the
Springs buildings stand today, and the
main spring was small hole about
the size of water-bucket scooped out
in the ground. The only settler living
close by at the time was Mr.. Sproles,
who had farm and lived an the top of
the hill few hundred yards from the
spring, toward Durant, where he also
ran a small country store. This Mr..
Sproles was the father of Rev. H. F.
Sproles, late of Jackson, but now To-
Gated at Vicksburg, who is personally
known to a great many of THE LEADERS
readers, and here this noted Baptist
preacher was born and reared. Mr..
Rhodes further relates that during this
first visit of his, Mr.. Money and wife,
from Carroll county, came with car
riage, wagons and retinue of servants
in regular old-fashioned ante-bellum
style, and camped in tents among the
trees near the spring, where the shady
lawn is now located. This Mr.. Money
was the father of Mississippi's present
senior u. S. Senator, who had not then
seen the light of day.
Yesterday Mr.. Rhodes reached his
S4th birthday. Some of the lady guests
who found it out in advance had hap
py surprise for him by preparing some
handsome cakes and decorating his ia
BILE at the noon meal with lovely flow
ers and ferns. Dr. KERN was engaged
to deliver little address appropriate
to the occasion, and it was very pleas
ant affair." Mr.. Rhodes, who is hale
and hearty old gentleman, is bache-
lor, and one of the lady guests "a hand
some widow of 40-told me there is a
very pretty and pathetic love story
connected with his life, dating away
back to the time when he came to Mis-
sissippi as young man from South
DuG uOW Suc ~ ouo
do not know.
The Springs are kept by Mr.. Henry
Barger. He is an ex-Confederate
soldier and looks like Kentucky
Colonel, though he is not usually call
ed Colonel" AS host he is ever at
tentive and obliging to the last degree,
and if he is not genuine Christian
gentleman as well as a good landlord,
he has all of his guests badly fooled.
Mr. Barger is assisted in the office by
Mr.. Cole, a gentleman whose clever
and obliging disposition is only excen-
ed by his handsome personal appear
ance and popularity with the ladies.
