his horse, died only about two years
ago.
1t was during This happy period
that John Howard Payne wrote his
immortal soug, "Homc Sweet
Homr,' and which will endrry
end he sung hy unborn millions 50
long 4, there is q home.
Miss Mary Harden died some
eight OF ten years ago, leaving all
Of her property and belongings to
her dev otcd friend and kinswoman
Miss Ef1ic Jackson, of Athens,
Georgia.
In the trunk of the deceased was
discovered package of loving let
ters among them the original manu-
script of "Home, Sweet Home" with
erasures and interlineations, Just as
the old melody was first penned.
A few days since I met a relative
OF Miss Jackson-and he told me
she sacrcdly preserved this memcn
to Of her kinSwoman's S first and only
love. and refused to part with il,
although large Sums had been Of
tered for this valuable relic and
which certainly ought to be held
beyond price.
While residing in Athens ! have
often seen Miss Mary Harden, but
at that time she was long passed
the meridian Of life, and there was
nothing either romantic or attrac-
tive about her. She always wore
all old black dress, rendered Esleek
with usage. But little did the
stranger know that there beat with
in the breast Of this old maid
heart as true, loving ands devoted
as ever animated human bosom
and that She was the first and only
love ot lm@ Of the most gifted AVID
sweetest pn..s and writer's Of The
SIHn, South.

the NJ. +. church had their picnic out
at the Munger farm about 9 miles
northwest of town. While the affair
was under the auspices of the Aid So
clety, the privilege of being active
members for one day was granted to
a number Of others.
About 7 o'clock in the morning one
could see people from every direction
hurrylng toward the church where the
start was to be made, a dinner basket
in one hand and sunbonnet in the
other.
The plan was for all to go together,
but as some we're fast and others slow
it failed to work.
The morning being extremely warm
made fast driving out of the question,
but the trip was kept from being mo-
notonous by singing songs, killing
mosquitoes. etc.
To say that we were cordially re-
ceived and well cared for on reaching
our destination would be to put it
mildly. Everything had been care
fully planned and went off smoothly:
there was not long face in the crowd.
and if anyone did not have a good
time there, he wouldn't have any,
where
About half past eleven the gentle
men of the crowd began making trips
to the kitchen window to see if dinner
was progressing, and in spite of the
fact that everything had to be tasted
before it was placed on the table, the
ladies succeeded in having dinner in
good season.
There were II people in all at the
table and each did themselves Justice,
the ride had wonderful sharpening
effect on the appetite, and many who
on ordinary occasions eat but little
surprised their friends very much
Of course many did not have time to
get their breakfast before starting.
In a crowd of friends and neighbors,
such as were found at Mrs. Mungers,
one sees aud feels the true fellowship
which belongs to those who live an
unselfish life.
A fine breeze springing up made the
afternoon on the galleries pass very
quickly.
A dispute among the ladies as to
who was the weightiest member, re-
suited in them all getting weighed.
1t was the intention originally to tell
the weight of each one, but it was
later thought eXpedient to give the
