very interesting from this.
On the 18th our community

heavy. J. D. Cottingham, g. Son

loss was heavy. Others were
damaged but not so heavy.
Crops are some what later
than common this year, but are
looking fairly we'll where the
hail missed.
We think The farmers are in
fine spirit over the prospect of
a good price for their cotton.
We always hope for better times
anyway.
