DR.. w. A. Mailing passed
through Southside Wednesday and
informed us that Mrs. John Catron,
who has been very sick with typhoid
fever, was improving and her tenn
perature normal.
AS we were returning home Sun
day afternoon, we passed the beau
tiful home OF Mr.. Walker Pickard,
and had the pleasure of looking at
his fine herd OF cattle, which num-
bered 50 or 90, and it was a beauti-
full sight to behold them grazing in
a fine pasture. Walker certainly
is hustler and knows how to make
the dollar.

that home there is another bright

say, 20 death, where is tiny sting;
0 grave, where is thy victory!
Our grand picnic has come and

loyable days I ever spent. While
we did not have very large crowd
we had a pleasant time and met
several OF the correspondents, and
each and every one wore a pleasant

very sorry all could not be there,
and will say to those who failed to
be on hand, you certainly missed

shown to us that day and will never
