vile is named in honor of Mr.. PeteI
Stevenson, the founder of the place, and
has the finest building in the town.
which has several more. Besides him
are Mr.. Nathan Williams, a dealer in
lumber and saw mill supplies, Mrs.
Walls, who keeps a general merchan-
disc store, and several parties of note
with whom we have no immediate ac-
quaintance. AS Union street north
divides Stevensonville from the river
line, there are few houses to the east of
Union street that may not, It is thought,
be included in the village. There are
two roads leading from Milton and con-
Hectiug with the village, both running
through it and going either to Ellendale
or 10 Drawbridge The Milton telephone
system stops at the east end Of the
town. The children of the place haYe

cal business engaged in by the citizens,
they being more of an agricultural
mind, and have their truck patches,
raising their own vegetables, hogs.
horses and other cattle. 1t is about i'm
possible for the writer to do justice in
his description of Stevensonville, on
account of the reticence of the inhabi-
tants, who have so often been imposed
uponi,by Insurance agents, sewing ma
chine agents and others, that they are :
naturally 10th to being questioned. Mr..
Stevenson, after whom we have named
the pretty place, has, however, been =.
quite communicative, and always an
swers any question Of information that =
we may have asked him. We often J
walk out on Sunday morning to enjoy :
the exuberance Of Nature and admire -
this growing little place, and these
walks, in summer or winter, autumn or e
spring, are enjoyed, as. there is always : :
something around the town to be en- =
joYed besides the society of the inhabi-
taMs. The people are generally at home
on these days, particularly Mr.. Steven -
son and Mrs. Williams. We should have -
mentioned that a few families of the -
colored race are citizens, but they are of -
the best quality, owning their properties !. !.
