PLEASANT GROVE.

Special 10 the Ne7US
AS I arose this morning and looked
out through hole 215x6 feet, the first
thing / saw was that the earth was
covered with snow, which made me
think | had better lookout for more
wood to keep out the cold winds of
winter as the cold winds do not suit
my old clothes which are all patches.
James Privett and Walter Rogers
called on Calvin E. Hancock Friday to
get a tire set on wagon wheel.
Nell Webb was here Saturday to get
some mule shoes set which were not
larger than a goat S foot. I doubt him
using them on anything larger than a
goat.
VIM Colston came with a mule to
have iron nailed on his feet.
Lucrecia Smith, whose home is at
Calvin E. Hancock S, went to Kimbal
Saturday to spend few days with
friends.
H H. Torbett and wife returned
home Thursday from Bridgeport where
they had gone on Christmas to the
bedside of Mrs. D. D. Rogers. | wish
to extend my sympathy to the bereav-
ed husband and children Mother has
gone children, but the resurrection
morning will find her. Be prepared to
meet her over there.
G. H. Quarles and family passed by
here this morning in the snow and
mud. / would like to know what took
them out this cold day.
Nov, as | have given all the news
that / can think of, | will turn my at
tention to wild Bill and wish to
say to the editors that | am not mad
but in perfect good humor., and l
think she is also wild Bill" starts
out by saying that Hardscrabble is
not as smart as he thinks he is and |
agree to that. Now, do not wish to
accuse "Wild Bill of being a drunk
ard, murderer, or an idolatsr, or of
witchcraft, but she will see by turning
to Gal. and the last word in the Goth
verse that she did wrong when she told
that big tdrnip story. The next place
she referred me to is Matt. 81 ii and
that suits my case o a ''T'' for she has
jumped on me with both feet and has
reviled me and said all manner of evil
things against me falsely, so you see l
am the one to get the blessing. She
has referred me to Matt 7: 1,2 verses
and says | have no right to judge her.
l have read it as she requested and
find l have right to pass judgement.
Matt. Z: 49, 90 will reveal to her that
by their fruits l am to know them and
want to know whether it was a good
tree or an evil one that brought out
the turnip story. The Lord says that
good tree cannot bring forth evil
fruit, so she can judge which tree she
belongs to- He further says Every
evil tree is to be cut down and cast
into the fire. wild Bill was brag-
ging a while back about being baptiz-
ed and / wish to call her attention to
Matt. 81 IA, IS and ask her how she is
letting her light shine for this is one
of the means to bring into the church
people who are degraded and to show
them that there is something better
for them. wild Bill complained
at me for being fuss raiser and | will
say the Lord was the first to reprOve
sin and all the apostles after Him and
the Lord called some people hypocrits
and vipers because they did not obey
the bible, so you see | am not so bad
after all
Wishing the editors a Happy New
Year and that prosperity will attend
their efforts. ! will ring off
Hardscrabble.
