Williams Creek Letter .

DEAR CoURIER-Not l.aving heard any
thing from this district for some time,
| thought would write few lines in
connection with our glorious climate.
must say that we have good climate.
Since we have been here we have paid
for our home, l60 acres OF good land, ,
which was all brush and timber a good
many years ago. | was one Of big
family when we settled here. We all
went to work, big, little, old and young
and we had to economize in order to live,
but we did. We paid for our place and
also accumulated property 80 we got to
be good livers with plenty TO live on.
years to show others that those that
have no homes can do as we have done.
Times are better now for poor man
than they were when my father settled
on this creek. My father was a German,
q close calculator. When he died be
left his family in good circumstances,
with a good banking account. This was
all brought about by hard labor and
good management.
As look around aud see so many
men Of families that are depending OH
days labor for support, they had better
seek homes and quit talking Of hard
times and lay up something for their
old age and Increase the tax roll. As it
is now few taxpayers have TO stand
the burden Of the taxes.
We have on this creek some good
farmers that are farmers, then we have
others that don't seem TO care, just so
they exist. Perhaps | am a little hard
on the settlers on this creek, but il
others had worked as our family has
done, we would be paying thousands Of
dollars in taxes where now il is only
hundreds.
We have had an open winter so far
but there has been a good deal Of water
for the miners.
Being German, have not done
justice to our own creek but il this is
published in the COURIER | will write
again.

THANKSGIVING.

Thanksgiving Day was heartily OBJ
served in Brookhaven. For the first
time in its history, so far as we know,
business houses were all closed and
things generally appeared gratefully
at rest. The union services at the
Baptist church we're attended by a con-
gregation beyond the seating capacity
of the audience room. Rev. M. l.. Bur-
ton preached a sermon that has been
pronounced an ideal one for such an
occasion. The song service, with Mrs.
Hobbs as organist, was participated in
by Mrs. w. w. Henderson, Mrs. j. H.
Willoughby, Miss Jeanette Mikell,
Miss Bonita Purser and Messrs. Rags
dale, Penn, Green, Dennis and Dickey.
A collection was taken for the orphan
ages at Jackson, Columbus and Water
Valley, amounting to SAL 40. Five dol
lars was also contributed by the Sun
beams to the Baptist Orphanage.
We believe the assembling together
of our people last Thursday was an ex-
preston of gratitude befitting the day
appointed by our President and our
Governor as day of thanksgiving to
the Giver of every gift; and believe,
too, that our people are the better for
having given themselves up for the
brief time allotted to serious contem-
plation and communion with the Di-
vinity that shapes our lives. We hope
the day will be as religiously observed
through years to come as upon the
Thanksgiving Day of the first year of
this new century, last Thursday.
