us Il short while. and, being a man of
strict Integrity and nprigltncsS, i i'll
ready enjoying u iinr trade.
Our Glnl"iy. >;,w-mill and cnrn-nill
are owned and controlled by Mr.. II. r..
w akriirld. and the large business that
he 'locs is owing 10 the fact that ne
'i"rS everything possible to please his
customers. Mr.. Wakefield R also our
Magistrate, and his constable, Mr.. W.
Is. Williams, is never known to 20 for
game without bringing it in.
Mr.. j. J.. Barnes, our black and
wood workman is from Liberty, S. G..
ne has only been here IL few weeks.
ahd, in coming to Scptms, we wish him
az! the success possible. and bsrrak
for hin, Il liberal patronage.
MIR. a. L. l'rcssly has lust purchased
talking machine from the G.. 4. Reed
Music House, and il is quite the centre
"f attraction. a nicklc in the slot and
Il wind up is all that is required to hear
It's chat. We also have one or two 9th :
rr talking machines in town, and the
greatest trouble is that without money
or without winding they talk, talk,
talk, ami it's very seldom they talk the
truth.
At one time we could boast of one of
the finest old bachelor classes that
could be found. but, alas one by one
they have fallen out till ut present we
have only two left to tell the tale. viz:
Mcssrs. y. y. Richardson and j. r..
Mnlllkln. We trust. however, that
these friends will vet conclude that the
way of the old bachelor is hard and will
follow in the footsteps of their prcd.
ressors by taking unto themselves n
sweet little wife that will make their
last days their happiest ones.
The few remaining old maids that we
lave are pretty and sweet to their age,
and they yet hope to see some young
man fall ut their feet and, with eyes
bcaming with devotion, hear them ex.
claim "tilOti farcst Of mortals."
We sometimes hear Of boys getting
"boOzy" and getting their hats mussed
nr, but we seldom hear of them getting
their buggies musscd. Walter and
LESS" can tell about it.
BY the way, AIr. i..:itnr, we were
about to forget to mention or widow
ers. Suffice it to say the crop is very
small but quite popular, generous
hearted and accommodating, and at
present they hold the position as chief
cook, bottlc-wnsher and night watch
man.
We are pretty smre' it is contrary to
law for amy nMe except the proper au-
thorities tn handle the United States
mail. Somebody had better look ont
"r they might hear something .drap.'
The Lebanon High School. under the
management of Prof. w. F.. Lott, as
sisted iy Miss Alice Wakefield, is in n
fl"nrishing condition. and ut present
there are something over one hundred
pupils enrolled.
Miss Birdie DuckwOrth. the amiable
and accomplished daughter of Dr.. j.
q. DuckwUrth. is again ns til" Green
vile Female College, taking another
course in music.
Trusting that this will escape the.
waste basket and wishing tie INTEL
LGENcER continued success, we are
