The Crutchfields have long been

and southern gallantry still exists. She
came from Columbia, 8. c., and there
she married young Crutchfield IA

There has never been a better dressed
young matron in all the south than
young Mrs. Crutchfield. She had

She offered $40, which the proprie-

he asked her name and hotel, and next
morning she received the following
letter:
