this will he an interesting session Of
fiscal court We have several impor-
tant measures to consider, among
them being the 500, 900 bond issue
and we will have to decide at this
term of court whether we will let the
people vote on it or not. This bond
issue is for gravel roads and is one Of
Road Supervisor Bert Johnson's ideas.
1 think it an excellent one and think
the bond issue will go through all
right"
Besides a great number Of minor
matters to consider, the board will
have to elect IA county physician.
There are two applicants for this office
Drs. Johnston Bass, and J. ". Pend
ley.
A poor farm keeper will not have 20

this work. Nothing will be done rel
alive to the other matters until this
work is finished.

Death Of Miss Lille Abbott.

On last Saturday afternoon, July 10,
about @ O'Clock p. M, Miss Lille Abbott,
eldest daughter of Rev, and Mrs. Wilburn
Abbott, died at her home on Conneross,
after brief illness from typhoid fever.
She was in the 26th year of her age and
had been for number of years q con-
sistent member of the Baptist church.
Her life was spent in tho service of
others. Always kind and thoughtful,
she was interested in the comfort and
welfare of those about her, and TO
know her was to love her. From early
childhood she evinced q remarkable
degree of love for church work and q
degree of interest in the welfare of others
that is seldom witnessed in one so young.
He whole life was that of gentle
Christian and the impress of her infiu-
ence for good will be felt by many IN
years to como. On Sunday afternoon at
O'clock her remains wore laid to rest
in the Conneross Baptist cemetery in the
presence of large concourse of sorrow
ing friends. The services were con-
Quoted by Rev. j. NJ. Mcclure. j. w.

sided at distance, arrived here in time
to pay the last sad tribute to the de-
ceased at the grave. To the bereayed
parents, brothers and sisters of the de-
ceased we extend our sincere sympathy
in their hour of sorrow.

Painful Accident Id Little Boy.

Monday afternoon, while driving a
double team to large lumber wagon,
James Angel, 10 years old, son of Mr..
and Mrs. Chas. j.. Angel, of Walhalla,
fell from the wagon and was run over by
one of the rear wheels, which crossed
his body midway between the chest and
stomach. The wagon was heavily loaded
carrying about l 200 feet of green lum-
ber, and it seems almost miracle that
the little fellow was not crushed to in
stant death. Not even rib was broken,
however, and aside from mashed and
broken thumb, caused by tho wheel
striking it as it came to the ground from
his body, there are no apparent serious
injuries. Tuesday morning Jim was
able to be up and about the house and is
getting along nicely, though suffering
considerably from severe bruises. His
physician anticipates no serious effects
and hopes to see his patient fully re-
covered in short time. Jim is pleas
antly remembered as one of the brightest
of the many bright little follows who
took active part in the graded school
exercises at the close of the last session.
There was universal sorrow on learning
of his accident, and sincere expressions
of hope for his recovery from. many who
have noticed him specially for his bright
ness and amability when among his
