AS we have seen nothing from our
"Corner" for some weeks past, MIR.
Editor, and being DESTROYS OF seeing
occasional mention of happenings
which are daily taking place around
lis, we take the liberty of writing what
has been done and what is being done
among us.
Christmas found us ready and wait
ing, and since Monday night parties,
sociables, etc., have been the order OF
the day.
Mr.. Luther Z. Bowie, one OF our
most popular young men, ON last We'd
nesday night led to hymen's altar one
Of "Mohawk's" most charming young

Rev. II. G. Fennel. of Lowndesville.
On the following day the bridal party
drove to the residence of Mr.. A. S.
Bowie, brother of Mr.. l.. E. Bowie,
where a sumptuous feastawaited them.
After the bridal party had arrived and
congratulations had been extended to
the happy bride and groom by few
invited guests who were present, word
passed around that the feast was III
waiting, and all they that were hidden
to come. Soon the guests were assem-
bled around the festal board, where for
one hour they partook of the good
things provided by the genial host and
hostess. Mr.. Bowie is to be congratu-
lated in his selection of a companion.
and we join his many friends in eX-
tending congratulations and wishing
them Il long, prosperous and unciouded
journey through life.

The bear which has been agitating
the minds of q good many people in
this section, especially the negroes,
was killed recently near Starr. There
are reports to the effect that one or two
bears, or possibly more, are still rowing
about among us at will.
Theyear 1898 is numbered with the
past, and new year is upon us. Let
us each and every one resolve to make
more use of 's9 than we have of old '98,
and not allow the time to idly slip
away from our grasp. May we see the
mistakes made in 'S8 and avoid them in
's9. May we every day seek to be up
and doing, and upon the first of the
year resolve to take the best advantage
of our time, talents and opportunities.
