jeff Eley, one of the few old
time darkies left in this county,
died last Friday. "Uncle jeff" as
he was generally called, claimed
that he was 100 years old. He
came to Benton County from Mid
die Tennessee with the family of
William Bartlett "way back before
de war" and from the best inform
alton we can get, he was the only
darby in this county who bought
his freedom in the days of slavery.
Uncle Jeff was always as polite as
Chesterfield to old and young,
and when it come to barbecuing,
he was past grand master at the
art and for fifty years, perhaps, a
barbecue in Benton County was
not considered a success by white
or black unless Uncle jeff had full
charge in preparing the meats.
Notwithstanding his extreme old
age, he was until quite recently
active and industrious, and he pos
sessed fund of information con-
corning men and events of several
generations ago.

One Of the very jolliest evening ex.
ursions to the Ca'cLasaw Lake was
g Nei last Wedna,cI.' In honDr of the
visiting guest OF Mrs \. LowcHstcin,
Miss Henrietta Heldinsfelder of Mem
b1 3, Tennessee. The tally.ho was sr-
cured. and a jolly good ride It was.
EVERYBODY was In picnic humor and
even the horses did their best.
The ride was pleasant, but what
shall be said Of the bountiful repast
served up in Mallory's best style-all
was in waiting for their arrival-and
the fields had been robbed of their
daisies and placed gracefully about
over the table. while great Jars Of
brown-eyed Susans smiled at each
guest from some secluded nook. Each
member Of the party has solemnly
pledged the other never to disclose
just how much was left on the once
crowded table.
