La Grippe is prevailing in this neigh
borhood. No malady ever had a more
appropriate name. All of its subiects
can testify to this fact who have passed
through its trying ordeals.
Mr.. d. Meade, Jr., is housed with a
painful attack Of erysipelas. We are
pleased to report HIS condition more fav-
orable.
On account OF the uncomfortable con-
dition Of the house there was no preach
ing in Meade Memorial Church on Sun
day, much to the regret of those assem-
bled.
Much disappointment was experienced
by the young ladies Of this charge. who
had planned q visit to the Epworth
League at Wildwood. when they learned
of the sickness of the minister. Rev. ]
ID. Haley. OF course the suggestion. that
the knowledge of this contemplated visit
is the cause of the young preachers in
disposition, is unfounded and untrue.
A feast of "wld Turkey" was the
good fortune of several gentlemen at the
hospitable home of Mr.. Frank Kenner-
ly's on New Years day Doubt as to
whether It was wild or tame turkey lin
gered for some time In the mind of one
OF the honored guests. judging by the
amount of "sampling" he bestowed on
the bird.

The harness came unfsstened and the

jump out of the buggy. He was sntan-

fortunately he was so wrapped In the
robes that he escaped unhurt. The horse
became excited and ran Into another

The horse was caught before any further

Marshall Burns TO Miss Lena lie Fevre
Porter. The ushers were Messrs. John

Mr.. Burns is one of our thriftiest farm
ers, owning and estate of over 400 acres
and raising on an average 1000 bushels
of wheat and corn in proportion. The
writer recently visited his homestead and
was sadly reminded that he was in need
OF a helpmate, and II required no one to
tell that the efficient hand of his mother
Mrs Burns, was no longer supervising
the household. The brides father, Mr.
Levi N. Porter, has a magnificent home
stead just across the pike, and is one of
Jetferson's most successful farmers and
president of the Citizens Bank at
ChaTlestown: The bride was the recipi-
emit of many handsome and useful pres.
ents.

PREPARING FOR THE REUNION

the Dallas People to Make the
ssss. xssH's ahgl II As@s Assa sesss, Z Sss'& s"''
Bonhsm, Texas, Nov. rs. 1901.
EDITOR TIAEs-The last time /
wrote you the subject matter con-
tained in the communication related
TO the trip to the. Confederate Re
union at Memphis. The first sub
ject in this will relate to the approach.
ing reunion to be held at Dallas in
the spring and I trust all may say
may be of interest to the readers.
First | will state that the dases
for holding the re9Iioa have been
decided upon as April %, %, "a and
25, 1902. The headquarters will,
in all probability, be at the State
Fair Grounds in the city of Dallas.
All the committees have been ap-
pointed and are ready for active
work. Ofcourse tho principle thing
to do is to raise sufficient money to
pay all th. expenses of the entertain
ment of the Confederate soldiere and
their frieSS,. po4sidersblc money
PAS been raised SO far. The Texas
State Fair aud Dallas Exposition
management donated one half the
gate receipts of the opening day of
the Fair iS September sowafa the
snteltsipment Of the Confedsrates.
One means Of raiaiRg funds for the
cause will he tho sale of souvenir Lee
buttons which represents lone star
with a picture Of Gen'l Lee upon
them, and the ssle Of Winnie Davis
MedallioDs. etc. Another source of
furds will be by subscription in Dal.
las and possibly ct other paipta, and
still another, | an alMost sure, will
h. . eanIrIbntion by all "r nearly all
Confederate camps in the State. The
idea Of many Of the Confederate
soldiers is to impress those from
other States with the fact that Dallas
alone did not invite the reunion to
TEXAS but tho invitation came from
