Col. Knox Livingston has appeared be.
fore the good people Of Marlboro County
in rev? role. AT The Last term OF the
COURT Of General Sessions no successfully
defended Pharaoh Jacobs on tho charge Of
assault with intent to kill, and obtained
the very just verdict Of tsnot guilty. AS
q result, and in order to show his gratitude,
and being possessed Of the idea that nc
one elae in the County can do anything
quite as well as Ool. livingston, when Mr..
jacobs desired to take unto himself bet.
ter half, none other would he have to per-
form the ceremony than Col. LiyiEgaton
himself. Hence, on the afternoon Of Tues
day, tho 9th inst, up to che door of Liv-
ingston s. Waits Olfice came driving bug
giles laden with the happy couple and their
friends und relatives. Col Livingston per-
formed his new duties with inimitable
grace and dignity, and in this case il. mny
be truly said that s;,'all went merry as q
wedding bell.'' The conducting parties
were Pharaoh Jacobs md biisa Martha
Cope, daughter OF Mr. Thomas Cope, nll
Of this county.

THE YEAR 1903.

The new year has dawned-now for
new resolutions and laying plans for an
other crop. Those farmers who practic
ed close economy in the purchase OF the
fertilizers used, and raised plenty OF
corn for home use and fair supply Of
bacon, feel easy and are independent OF
the conditions which confront some, now
will they profit by the experience OF last
year and adopt the same plan for 1903 ?
We hope so. and not only plant heavily
OF corn. but remember big crop of
pork. Mr.. G. s. Mccall purposes this
year to raise 1900 pounds OF pork to each
plow run. II all our farmers would try
to do this, we shall have plenty OF home
supplies in Marlboro next tall.
