Some few people are predicting
cold winter. Mr.. Editor, I don't want
to cause any alarm in your town, but
there is a probability Of some OF your
inhabitants suffering for the lack Of
fire wood thiss winter Ten cotton
has made the negroes too rich to

Mr.. David Halfacre and Miss Nora
-Epting, both of this county, were
married last Sunday evening at the

tons to the young couple.
There is going to be considerable
moving among our white people OF
this section of which I will make mem

We are glad to note that Mr.. Brown
Franklin has about recovered from

We hope Our next legislature Will

cast in Our last years primary. 1t

electing men to office is very respon-

the work. Sam is more than hustler.
But say, hold on Mr.. Editor what

Synod? Wasn't it something like
this, that if he would kill the porkers
and blow the horn, we would go down
and help him take care of his pud-
dings, sausages and hoghead cheese.
He blew for me last Friday, accord

w. and one of the little ones, we turn
ed the head of orr pony in that direc-

found ourselves at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. Hipp. About the firsr word,
after good evening from Mr.. Hipp
was. where is Elbert Aull told him
that I was not authorized to make any
excuses for you, so can only say
that we enjoyed the puddings, sau-
sages and .hoghead cheese beyond ex-
preston. and also a general rurnina
ting over the past until late bed time.
Mr.. T1ipp has fine plantation, and
is making good money out Of his
