Mrs. Cynthia Presson is in very
feeble health, and her condition
was no better yesterday.
Elder J. w. Waters of Licking
ton came over yesterday and will
spend a few days with us.
Through an oversight we failed
to mention last week the "Old
Maids Convention" at the semi
nary. 1t was good from start to
finish, and created no end of fun
and amusement. The tamborine
drill by the young ladies was very
creditable. The evening was spent
so pleasantly that it is more than
likely the entertainment will be
repeated at an early date.
The anti-saloon people have been
very active the past week and they
have had some able speakers here
to assist in arousing the christian
people of Camden to vote out the
whisky. Capt. S. W. Hawkins of
Huntingdon, Rev. Alonzo Nunnery
Of Jackson, Hon. Joseph e. Jones
of Dresden, Rev. [. M. Penick of
Martin, DR.. Landreth of Nashville
and Elder A. P. johnson of Colum-
bia have been here this week, and
DR.. J. NJ. Carter of Lexington will
speak here tonight. The invitation
is extended to everybody to so and
hear Dr. Carter.
A Women's Christian Temper
ance Union was organized here
Sunday afternoon by Miss Love
Hawkins and others of Hunting
