1t is an ill wind that blows no
one any good, and last week it
played hide and seek with the mail,
and after the mail carrier had
passed we found the wind had
blown our items down the road, so
didn't get there in time last week.
The Il ird was Mrs. Mills, who
died February IS on the Harpole

the Pleasant Hill Cemetery. The
deceased was a sister to Mr.. Kyle

of our friend and neighbor, Mr.
J. 7. Anderson, who dep ,rted this
life on the night of February 9.
We have known and associated
with him from his youth to man
hood and have been with him IN
his affection. We found him to be
true and devoted Christian. He
bore his suffering with great pa
tience. He was a member of the
c. p. Church at Pleasant Hill.
We we're shocked last Monday
over the sad accident which befell

by his step-brother, Ernest Cullom.
The little fellow was deaf, but IN
telligeut and attractive. They
started from the front porch to the
back yard to shoot some birds.
Ernest went through the house and
James around it. Ernest was
standing with his gun aimed when
James reached the back corner and
before he knew what he was doing
he had shot his little step. brother,
James, the ball lodging in the alb

time. James was about 7 years of
