"May, you goosel 1t was in
June, and the trees had been in
leaf for weeks, and mothers hol-
| lyhocks were in blossom in the
front yard. Do you remember
the schoolteacher who used to
want to walk home with me from
church and the compliment he
paid me that day?"

est flower of all. Ha, Hal
What was his name? Summers?"
"Oh, no! How forgetful you
are! That was the name of the
young lawyer from Nashville l
threw over because liked you
better"
You'd better have married
him. He made big fortune
they say
ridiculous! He wasn't as
tall as | am by half an inch and
as conceited as sin. Most any
girl would have preferred you,
even if we did have to live in a
| log cabin at first.o
THAT was as neat a log cabin
as there was in the county, if |
did build it myself" said the
bishop proudly.
Eyes, and, Simon, don't you
know that l sometimes think it
was a great mistake for us to
come to Utah at all. We could
have been good Mormons there
just as WE'LL"
The conversation was reaching
a point the bishop always
lodged. He rose, stretched his
arms, yawned and said:
"Well, we can go back there
some time and see the folks
when we get rich. It's late.
We must go to bed. I've a big
days work tomorrow"
During the next two or three
months the bishop and his coun-
sellers were often seen together,
but they seemed to make no
Roadway in their efforts to get
the bishop to take another wife.
One day he received letter
from Brigham Young requesting
him to call and talk over matters
Of Importance at the earliest
moment when he could make it
convenient to visit Salt Lake
City. Betsy seemed strangel,
averse to his making the trip
but after many delays he went
He was closeted with Brother
Brigham for several hours, and
when he returned to his home in
the broad valley by the lake he
was strangely silent and medi.
tative for several days. Betsy
asked no questions, but seemed
to be expecting something to
happen, and it did.
One morning as the family
was gathered about the break
fast table and the bishop had
asked q blessing he leaned back
in his chair and said solemnly:
"Wife, last night | had a rev.
citation from the Lord"
"Indeed !"
eyes. An angel appeared to
me in vision and foretold the
future and gave me a message to
the living"
"What is it?" asked Betsy
meekly.
''It was-ahsm-revealed to
me by the angel that | had not
been walking as | should before
the people: that l had been
guilty of q sinful neglect of du'
ties in the past. twas revealed
to me that | should take Jane
Edwards to the endowment
house next week and have hel
sealed to me through eternity
The Lord hath spoken. BLESSED
be the name of the Lord"
1.-THE children all looked at
Betsy, expecting an outburst
but none came. She calmly
poured the coffee, carved the
loaf and presided at the table as
though nothing had occurred
The bishop was surprised and
apprehensive, but as the day
passed and no signs of trouble
appeared he recovered his seren.
ity and felt thankful that af
fairs were moving along so nice

they are both clcyating and refining.
Plant in the fall bed of mixed tulips
for your early spring blossoms. Would
recommend preparing your bed well
and plant deep, say inches below the
surface; they will last for years. After
they are done blooming do not disturb
the bulbs, but plant the bed In some
good annual, like yerbenas, vincas,
coliss, or other plants you may choose.
Plant n few cannas and dahlias, and
by saving the bulbs over winter like
you do your potatoes you will always
have supply. A few vines about the
house oftcntmes keep out the sun in
the heat OF summer, We have moon

killing Of Will Ogiltree.


On Saturday evening, while sitting in
a wagon in front of his yard gate near
Ivy, a village just across the Alabama
line and about nine miles southeast of
this place, Mr. Will Ogiltree was shot
by a young man named Lee Cherry.
The wounded man died before be could
be carried into the house. It is stated
that Cherry, after the shooting, crossed
the line into Mississippi and up to this
time he has not been apprehended.
From what we can learn the killing
was the result of a threat on the part
OF Ogiltree, some weeks ago; to whip
Cherry for improper illusions to a lady
member of his (~Ogiltree'e) family. The
matter had been dropped, however,
until the day of the tragedy, and the
crime has every appearance of a DELHI
crate, premeditated, cold blooded a
der. 1t is to be hoped the assassin will
be caught and punished.
Win Ogiltree was we'll known here.
having a few years ago conducted the
Lee House. Those who have had bust
ness relations with him inform us that
he was a peaceable, inofensive citizen,
who paid his debts. His death is to be
regretted.
