A Series of Lectures.

Some interesting lectures will be
delivered at the Shelton Opera
House in Waxahaehie beginning on
the 18th day of June, 1905. by Capt.
". d. Robinson.
Capt. Robinson has been knew to
the older settlers of Ellis county for
more than thirty years and he needs
no recommendation to those who
know him. He is a speaker that al
ways interests his hearers. He had
the misfortune of difficulty with a
man concerning family affairs and
the man was killed and Capt. Robin
son was sent to the pdhitentiary for
a term of years. and however just
the law nsght have been administer
ed there are but few of his former
friends who believe that he was in
any way blamable in the matter as
he was acting in the defense and hon
or of his family.
People who are fortunate enough
to attend the lectures as above mem
toned will serve two noble purposes.
viz. Fsrist. they will gain iEforma-
tion along some lines of which the
general public knows but little. and
second viii assist a man who has
been a prominent citizen of Texas
for forty years and has lived without
reproach Attend the lecture and
be assured that you will get full
worth OF YOUR money.
