noble English family, who, although born in Virginia, inherited the rank and fortune of a baronet. He was exceedingly fond of good hunting and beautiful women, and as both of these tastes were gratified at Mount Airy, he spent great deal of his time there At least, although he had been proof against the wdles of women, the dashing young Englishman fell deeply in love with pretty Betty Tayloe, capri cious young daughter of the house, whom he had watched develop from girlhood into an irresistible maiden of eighteen. The two were betrothed, it is said, but the girl was high-spirited and her lover was ex- acting. The result was that they quar- reled frequently and often bitterly. These various misunderstanding were always peacefully adjusted by the aid of the fam fly, but at last the end came. Something happened which Betty would not forgive. In vain did the family interfere, for naught did her lover plead with mute lips and ashy face, for his heart was greatly involved, but she was obdurate. At last, under the stress of her disapproval, Sir Jennings fell desperately i'll and died, there at Mount Airy, without having received one word of forgiveness from the relentless mistress of his fancy. To this day, it is said the through the halls of the mansion, seeking a reconciliation with the capricious Betty whom he hopes to meet there.

Betty Taylor, Virginia Belle
 And Beauty of the Past

Under the title, "Romances of Southern Homes,' Mrs. Thaddeus Horton tells the following romantic incident in the October number of the Ladies' Home Journal. It will be read with much interest, since Mount Airy is the ancestral home of Mrs Albert T. Henley of Birmingham;
 Mount Airy, the ancestral home of the Tayloe family, on the Rappahannock, Rich mond County, Virginia, is as fine an exam pie of the home and surroundings of Vir- ginia country gentleman of a century ago as can be found in America. This great estate of four thousand acres has never passed out of the hands of the original family. It was built in 175S by Col. John 1ayloe, and, with Its wings, contains about twenty-five rooms. On one side there are terraced grounds, on the other is noble park and the Rappahannock river flows serenely through its green fields, still un- der perfect cultivation.
 Mount Airy like most Virginia homes, has been celebrated from its earliest days for the most graceful and open-handed hos pitality. Its owners have always been lov- CTS of the turf, and the old race track is still kept up and often used. Some of the rooms are hung with curious old Eng fish plates of the racing favorites of other days, many of which are of great value to collectors.
 Sir Nicolas Baker, an English diplomat, who visited Mount Airy in May, 1927, has left in his memoirs an account of his stay there. He was especially taken with the horses and with the brilliancy and beauty of the women.
 Among the gay gentlemen who visited Mount Airy in the happy past was one Sir Jennings Bicksmith, the descendant of a

LAUDERDALE COUNTY
 FAIR IN FULL BLAST
Splendid Exhibits and Good Races Promised -Boy Meets With Serious Accident
 -Fhe Wheeler Rifles.

Florence, October 11.-(Special )-The seventh annual fair of Lauderdale County opened yesterday under very suspicious cir cumstances. The exhibits are the finest in the history of the fair. The races promise to be very hotly contested, as there are some very fast horses here from a distance. A carload of race horses came in yester- day from Columbia, Tenn, and will go from here to Atlanta after the fair, as they are making a circuit of southern fairs The free-for-all road race today, half mile, best two in three, was won by Dr. Van Dykes Ally, in a spirited contest. This was the only event of the day as the first day is spent in entering exhibits and getting things under way. The city officials notified the management that no gambling devices would be allowed on the grounds that con- flicted with the State stautes, and this will shut out the usual crowd of fakrs that in- fest county fairs. The management also de- cided to cut out the coochee-coochee dance in the vaudeville tent shows on the grounds, as the public sentiment in the city was very strong against it.
 An S-year-old son of John Goodman of Bainbridge, this county, had his foot near ly severed by jumping off a table on broken fruit jar. The child's life was saved by wrapping the wound tightly with a. cloth after filling the wound with wood ashes and soot till doctor could be sum- moned. The little fellow had a narrow es- cape from bleeding to death.
 Thomas Harlan of this city claims to have sold twenty acres of phosphate land at Mt. Pleasant Tenn, to the Berlin Phosphate Company for $10,0OO. He bought the land last year at small price, it being con sidered worth very little for farming pur- poses.
 The Wheeler Rifles held an election or commissioned officers last night to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of First Lieutenant Frantz. Lieut. J. B. Gullette was promoted to fill the vacancy and Hal Ray was elected second lieutenant The Wheeler Rifles is in a prosperous condition, and the members of the county are work ing with a view of making 1t one of the crack drilled companies in the Third Regi- ment. Early in the nineties the Rifles held the regimental flag for three successive years as the best drilled company in the Third.
