TAKING ON BALLAST.

The French bark Charles Gounod has
finished discharging 1890 tons of coal
at the Sorenson wharf and will haul
over to the Railway wharf to discharge
$50 tons the remainder of her cvargo.
She began yesterday to take in 400 tons
of stiffening and will load 800 tons adj
ditional ballast after she completes dis
charging her coal cargo. She will
probably go to the coast to load wheat
for home or else return to Newcastle
after another load of cal. The ship
Ernest Reyer has not started to dis
charge coal yet as the salvage claims
have not been adjusted in her case.

Old Times in Grenada County
INTRODUCTORY

About three years ago | spent much
time in gathering material for a his
tory OF Grenada county, which | in
tended to publish in book form. ]
visited many Of the old people, both
in Grenada and in the country, in
search of such information as they
could give me, and examined such old
papers and records as | could find, in
order to rescue from oblivion the facts
and incidents in the annals Of the
county. / could not, however, COM
plete this work for want OF time to
make a thorough research, but | sue
ceeded in securing much information
which l hope will be of interest to the
people of the county. This is given in
the following sketches. 1t will be
seen that some incidents are given in
full, while others equally important,
or more SO, are barely mentioned, or
left entirly out: this is because the
facts could not be secured, thus, many
of the names and deeds of the people
Of the past, who deserve honorable
mention, are left out Of the following
sketches, which l very much regret.

CHAPTER IL.
FIJI RIVAL TOWNS.

The present city Of Grenada is the
result of the union of two rival towns.
One Of these towns was situated on
the bank of the Yalobusha river and
known as Pittsburg. 1t was founded
by a company headed by Franklin E.
Plummer. The other town, adjoining
PittSburg on the east, was known as
Tullahoma, and was founded by a
company headed by Hiram G. Run
nels. Plummer and Runnels were
uncompromising political enemies,
and there was a bitter rivalry between
the two towns, similar to that exist
ing between their founders. 1t was an
inveterate antagonism which greatly
impeded the growth of both towns.
The original settlers of Pittsburg
were: John Smith, hotel keeper;
James Sims, merchant; Drs. Allen
Gillespie and - Douthet, phySi-
clans; G. d. Mitchell, teacher; M. H.
Melton, blacksmith, Ralph Coffman,
merchant; c. II. Grey, planter, and
jonathan Carl, miller.
The business firms of Pittsburg be-
fore the union of the two towns were:
James Sims, r. T. Briarly, Prior &
Howard, John Gibbs, Thomas F1ack
and II. Coffman & Co.
The original settlers OF Tullahoma
were: John Balfour, ferryman; Maj.
Jack Williams, hotel keeper; Joseph
Bullock, drayman: Larkin Cleveland,
merchant; Mrs Annie Parker, hotel
keeper; Mr.. Dubbage, baker; George
Morton, merchant; VIM. Marshall,
silyerSmith; David Robertson, town
marshal; Mr.. S. Smith, planter, and
Henry Lake, VIM. Lake and Levin
Lake, merchants.
Among the first mercantile firms Of
Tullahoma were: Larkin Cleveland:
Clark Dougan: Armour, Lake & Nor
ton: Ii. S. and w. Lake & Co.
Pittsburg being the larger town,
was in the ascendency. 1t had a news
paper and post office, which gave it a
great advantage over its rival. The
paper was published by John /. Ham
ilton, and was the first in this section.
The name OF this paper was 1.-THE
Bowie Knife, but the date when it
was established is unknown. 1t was
at an early day, however, for THE
Grenada Bulletin" is the name of a
paper published by the same editor in
1886.
While publishing his Bowie Knife"
Editor Hamilton became indebted to

THE PIONEERS AND THE INDIANS.


Much of the history of Grenada
county, especially that which pertains
to the settlement of the white man, is
yelled in obscurity. The county at
the time of the advent Of the pioneers
was in possession of the Choctaw In
dianS, the treaty ceding the lands in
which the county is embraced to the
United States was that of Dancing
Rabbit Creek. But it was sometime
before this treaty was made that the
white man settled in what is now Gre
NADIA and Grenada county. The red
men had not made their disappear
ance, but there were no serious trou.
bleS between the two races.
The pioneers of Grenada county
were mostly from Virginia, the Caro-
linaS, Tennessee and Georgia, and
they represented the best people of
the South. Some OF them came in
keel boats, but must Of them came
overland in wagons, bringing their
families, negroes, stock, household ef-
fects and farming implements. They
were a dauntleSS race of men with
souls to dare all the dangers and diff
ficultieS of frontier life, in conquer
ing the wilderness for the glorious
civilization that we today enjoy.
