Il
that had to get Hucklcberry move
and a persimmon shuttle. | gue's
you aan figure out what kind of a
move, and shuttle that is, if you can
not | will do so for you: It is q
move the other fellow puts on you
and if you don't move on with his
business why he is not long about
you out, and making you
come to the front or just move out.
Uncle Dan Murphy is still on deck.
He can be seen each day sitting on
an inverted goods box looking as
calm and serene as q summers day.
Uncle Dan is quite a favorite with
the boys as he always has a crowd
around him, and as be is a great mar
rator he always has goodly- crowd
of listeners; the boys love to hear
him relate his narratives, some of
them are wonderful and miraculous.
Uncle Dan has not been trumped as
yet by anyone, not even by travel
ing salesman, as h.. often sends them
off with a bug in their ear.
Mr.. c. HI. Drnnam, of Jonathan
was q visitor in the village the past
week. He is jolly good fellow and
when he laughs he just laughs all
over, come again Bro. Dunnam.
Our former villageman, W. c.
Smith, now of Atmore, Ala. was on
q visit. to his family the past week.
Bro. Smith, looked like he had just
stepped out of a band box. 1t is
none Of my business where he got
those clothes but | wish | had them.
Smith has been well taken care of
since he left the village, his looks
shows it.. | took him for a New York
Drummer, ! hope he will come again
soon.
Mr.. G. G. Burch was on q visit to
his family the past week. Burch
seems like very quiet sort of fell
low, but | think he means a heap,
for still waters run deep so | have
been told, and if l am not very care
ful Burch might make me run.
Mr.. B. E. Green was visitor in
the Gulf City on Saturday and re-
ports the city quite lively.
Cyclone J. w. Green blew into the
village on Wednesday Evening hav-
ing been blown away for few days
past Cyclone Jim is hustler, he
believes in the old adage THE early
bird always catches the worm" but
Mr.. Editor there is one thing | can
truthfully assert, Cyclone Jim is
trying to keep tie worms out of the
blown down timber he is interested
in il can see straight, and | think I
can, so his Cyclone business means
something. Success to Cyclone jim!
The Green Co. have installed a Saw
Mill plant in the village and it has
been chewing saw dust the past week
to beat the Band; the lum of the
Saw and the falling of manufactured
lumber from the same can be heard
throughout the entire day.
Mr.. B. E. Green is the manager of
the newly installed industry and this
means success to The Green Co. is
all can say.
The feecy staple has been pouring
out of the gin in the Village the past
week, enough to make q Cotton Bro
ker scratch his head and think How
is tricks?
Mr.. Editor we have the only Vii
lage on the road, come down and I
will prove it and it will do you good
to smell new saw drst and the aroma
of Spirits Turpentine, and you can
get the best grades of rosin to chaw
for Car and Nicely told me so.
Mr.. c. S. Montgomery has sold his
interest in the Naval Stores business
here and has left, but / hope that he
may have left some strong attrac-
tions behind that viii cause him to
return on visit to US in the near
future as Mont, is o good fellow and
we dislike to lose him entirely; adieu
Mont, for the time being.
Our Village was flooded with visi-
tors on Sunday. Divine Services
were held at the Baptist house of
worship conducted by Rev. G.. W.
Rainier; the Reverend gentleman de
livered an able and instructive dis
course and had large audience to
greet him.
Among the visitors your cores
pondent noticed the Misses Kittrell,
McLenden and Cowart, of Leaf, Miss
Pearl Greer, OF Perry and many
others too numerous to mention;
there we're quite number of Stays
as visitors also. Your Correspon-
dent does not take much stock in the
Stag population. Mr. Editor your
correspondent as he gazed upon the
bright and smiling faces of the Lady
visitors could hear his old gizzard go
pitter pat, do you blame him, DO you
don't for you know how it is yourself.
Your Correspondent has had so
many hospitalities showered upon
him of late, that if it does not soon
cease he will have to have his tailor
to take his measure 10 enlarge his
wearing apparel. On Sunday End.
