Beautiful Wedding at jonesv!IIe.

was a cold, raw day, and Monday
was rainy day, from early morn
till night big fires are comfortable.
All the fruit that has bloomed is
killed. Some of the apple trees are
just blooming and it is probable
that they may escape the cold. All
tender vegetables and trees are
killed.
Some cotton and corn has been
planted but the bulk of the crops
are yet to be planted. If Monday
had been good day nearly every
farmer in this country would have
been planting cotton seed, but they
are tied up for several days.
Early Tuesday morning a freight
got off the track ut the siding above
the tank, but it was soon pulled on
by another engine, and the track
repaired in few minutes, and all
went on as unusual.
Capt. r. w. Scott has commence
ed moving out his old storehouse to
make room for his new brick store.
Capt. Scott's old store house is one
of the old land marks of Jonesville,
having been built by J. H. Little
John and Company about the year
1877. 1t was a good store house for
that day, but it must give place to
a better one for the present day.
