F;Ilv Felix Disceurses On Va
sieus Topics.

Owing to the pressure of business
that has claimed my attention I have
faile d to communicate to your newsy
columns: however Billy and the
agreeable Felix family are we'll,
happy and cheerful, and enjoying the
blessings Of life hugely.
Generally speaking the health OF
our community is not favorable.
There are some cases OF fever, etc.
but under the sk;liful treatment OF
our popular physi. ian, we hope to
see them up again and at their post
o. duty at an early date.
Our town and community was re-
Gently thrown in deep mourning at
The death of that venerable, octo-
geninarian. Mr.. Hobart Spires. He
was slways at his post of duty, both
in church and State. He contracted
to carry the mail from CASTOR to
Oakvilla via cf Macedonia was award
ed him; this he faithfully did til
short while before his death. His
dear companion preceded him a
short while to the spirit land. He
raised a large family, some of which
are now in Florida. The funeral
services were conducted by J. B.
Sharpe. The bereaved family have
our sympathies in their sore afiiction.
His remains were laid beside those
of his companion to awake the resur-
lection morn.
Rain would be welcome visitor to
our parts.
Wheat is being harvested and the
yield is satisfactory considering the
dry weather.
There is one whose communica-
tions to these columns in past-by-
days have been more frequently in
print than of late. Can you guess
way, Mr.. Editor? Perhaps the Dis
patch Devil can tell by way of pa
renthesis. Billy will draw on his
imaginary powers and his predictive
faculties, as did ''Klondike'', bu,
know they will be more certain to be
fulfilled than was his, and give you
hint. Imagine one sitting with
hand to his face with a vacant stare
whose mind seems to be drawn away
in the land of cupid, where lives one
of the fair sex who has won his heart
and you may copjuer why. Ere the
close of the 19sh century with all
her wonderful achievements both on
land and Iwater, when December's
chilly winds or October's gentle
breezes shall be heard and felt, or
before the advancement of new
year, you'll hear the merry wedding
bells pealing forth in gentle tones OF
melody and scent the perfume of
orange blossoms ss periq1isites to that
gladsome tune when two hearts shall
beat as one. This will occur Ia or
near that lovely and beautifully stu,
ated little town known for it's Chris
tian entertainnent, generous hos
pitality and educational interest,
located on the c., G.. & A. R R
known by the local name OF Lees7ille.
Should Billy be so hono:ed to be on
that happy and eVertful occasion,
you may again hear from
Billy Felix.
