ElseW here we publish a card from Mrs.
Frances Hardin Hess, whose address is
Katonah, n. Y. It ought to be of interest
TO a great many persons in Tazewel
county and Southwest Virginia. Mrs,
Hess Is a very cultured lady. She is the
granddaughter of the late Judge John Crab
tree Price, who was one of the most dis
tinguished jurists of the State of Missouri
His mother was daughter of William amt
Nancy Cecil, who lived and died on the
Clinch where the residence of Mr.. o. E.
Hopkins now stands. We trust that some
of the descendants of the Cecils OF
Wittens have copy of Bckley's history
and that they will forward it to Mrs. Hess,
with the assurance that she will preserve
and return it.
Ladies Come in and see our new skirts,
Tailor made, and coats. New styles coming
in every week.

The monument to the Confederate
Soldier of Tazewell County" is now in
position on the front of the court house
square. 1t is a pretty but modest piece of
work and is very true to life in appear
ance. There was some little difference of
opinion as to where the monument should
be located, but since it has been erected
all agree that the location is an admirable |
one. Col. II. c. Anderson took up the mat
ter of raising the funds to buy the monu
ment only few months ago, and in
very short while he'd sufficient money |
subscribe to pay all necessary expenses.
The money is now in hand and a check /
las been sent to the company which de-
signed and constructed the monument.
COL Anderson deserves great credit for the
energetic work he did, and all the people
will be glad to have such a handsome
nemento of the brave soldiers of Taze-
well on the court house square.
If you are not buying your goods from
The Big Store the chances are that you are
not getting the pest your money will buy.
