 The lamented Col. Bullock.
 Reference is made above to the lament ed and Confederate soldier, Col E. c. Bullock, in whose honor this county was named The name deserves more than a passing notice. He was elected colonel of the Eighteenth Alabama infantry upon it's organization in 1861, and was just 36 years of age At the head of his command he hastened to the front at Pensacola and Mobile. At the latter | place he contracted fever and died before | he had time to meet the real enemy. Gen. Alpheus Baker used to speak of Colonel Bullock as "the beloved and the matchless,' and regarding him used the expression: What a splendid future was forbidden to be realized by Fate s harsh mandate in his untimely fall"
 Colonel Bullock is said to have been a man of infinite wit, and that he often emitted flashes of the happy faculty | Ex-Senator Pugh once said that he slept in camp with Bullock "in the honey-moon' of the war. and that one night he (Pugh) was awakened by Col | onel Bullock who said: "You have pulled the blanket on your side and pushed me off the mattress"
 "I did not know it." said Pugh. Why didn't you speak?"
 "If I didn't speak, said Bullock, Tt wasn't because I didn't have the floor While Bullock county people are proud of this section and love the peace, quiet and home-life they lead, always hopeful and ambitious, they express much inter | est in Birmingham and the great iron, coal and manufacturing district of which | 1t Is the center, and rejoice In every movement to bring the people of all sec | tions of the state in close touch and l sympathy.
 Truck gardening has received some att tention in this section, but the industry is as yet only in it's infancy. Bullock county farmers have made a splendid sugar cane crop this year.
 Stock raising is proving profitable in l this part of the state since farmers have turned their attention to the grasses.
 J. w. Hendricks, who for years con ducted Talladega Springs and hotel, has leased the New Josephine hotel here ano is giving his guests his usual hearty welcome. His patronage is excellent likewise his service.
 Union Springs occupies a central posi- tion forty miles from Montgomery, forty miles from Eufaula, fifty-six miles iron Columbus and thirty miles from Troy.
 This city is healthful and a delightful place for homes.
