 While at their post of duty, at about II:3o o'clock a. m, crowd, among others were noticed the fol- lowing: A, J. Tullos and wife, Mrs. Pearson, Mrs. Rhodes and daughter, Robt. pinson, Caleb Boullion, Robt Banks, Henry Boullion, F. E. Wooley, G. T. Petty, T. F. Honsiiiger, Mrs. Moore and J. B. Smith came to the school house and after march ing around to the beautiful strains of music, formed themselves into "a procession and escorted the school about one forth mile distant to the home of T. F. Honsinger, where to the qualification of all, a table had been previously prepared which was loaded down with the luXuries of life. The school was given possession. The teacher ar ranged his students at the table in the order of their size beginning with the smallest. After dinner was over, the school was escorted back to its accustomed place.
 To say that this kindness and hospitality was appreciated by the students is but putring it ill feeble terms, judging from the way they seemed to enjoy themselves. On the part of your humble scribe, words have not the power to ex- press his appreciation.
