SHERIFF TO BE ELECTED.

1t will be news to most Of
DeSoto county people to hear that
we must elect a sheriff this year
Sheriff Freeman was elected for a
four years term and received his
four years commission, but one Of
his bondsmen having failed after
the sixty days had expired after
election, in which the bond could
be made all the governor could
legally do was to appoint Mr..
Freeman sheriff until he could be
elected over again. Therefore Mr..
Freeman will be a candidate this
year He has made an excellent
record and so far as we know will
have no opposition.

For the benefit of a number OF
the editors of the state who are
much exercised over the suppo-
sitiOn that DeSoto's sheriff has had
to erect and tear down three
gallows that were not used tor
Cooper we give this information.
There has been but one gallows
erected and it still stands a menace
to evil doors. So far as we know,
except for the first cost of putting
it up, the only expense that has
been wasted is the invitation cards
100 of them, issued by Sheriff
Fielder to the first hanging, which
didn't come off. And although
those holding invitations may have
felt defrauded, they were not
really out anything The printer
got pay for the cards and as the
cost was not excessive probably
The sheriff has gotten over his loss
by this time.
Our present sheriff, Mr. Freeman,
10 far as we know has been at no
rouble except arranging the moose,
nd we can almost swear that he |
i'd the untying act thankfully.
Friends don't waste your
on us. Save it for those
Tho need it.

General Cheatham had just told us
pretty d. badly whipped. .
As soon as preparations could
be made we marched out in line
with bowed heads, stacked arms
and answered to the last roll call
as survivors of the army of Tenn
essee. This was one Of the saddest
duties l was ever called ON to per.
form, or rather a mixture of low
aud sorrow, JOY at the idea of re.
turning to our homes, sorrow at
the loss of hundreds and thousands
OF lives and lost cause. a cause
that the southern people conscien.
tiously believed to be Just. al
though ! have long since left that
10 ADLER heads than my own to
decide. l am proud today of the
title A Confederate Veteran. -
From l07 privates when we left
the state only eight on the day Of
surrender was left to represent
Company E 5rd Florida Regiment.
The curtain now drops. War |
Times are closed. If we have
'een the humble means of enabling
my to pass pleasantly a few leisure
iours or to take real side split
