Settin' Round.

Summer days in our town just mer-
~ whirl
Ev'ry chap on buggy rides that can
get girl;
Picnics all around the lots, strawb'ry
festival
Keeps folks up till ten o'clock, at
Grand Army Hall
Summer days in our town-then may
be found
Mostly down to Dascombes store, just
a-settin' round.
When it's fall in our town, then there s
work an fun
Days for huskin' corn, an days when
you want your gun;
Squirrels suff rim to be shot, cider to
be made
Coons a-runnin up tree, of the dog
afraid;
When it's fall in our town, me an my
old hound
Pass our time at Daseombe's store, just
a-settin' round.
Winter nights in our town, well, they
aren't so slow
Listen to the cutters squeakin' DER the
snow
Choir practice some nights, singin'
schools an such,
Words fetched out at spellin bees I'll
to beat the Dutch
Winter night in our town, say where
ever bound,
Look for me at Dascmbe's store, jest a
settin' round.
Gentle spring in our town makes a fel
low feel
Trout brooks calm him to come
with rod an reel;
Garden must be planted, too, scare
crow not forgot;
Thinkin O the things to do, whew
Pm gettin' hot
Gentle spring in our town sh don
make a sound
Most asleep at Dascombe's store, jus
a-settin round.

SequaChee's Vote.

The election passed off very quietly
in Sequachee. Carmack had the lead
here, 90 to 3, although Patterson men,
especially republican Patterson men,
freely predicted that when it came to
a vote that others would show up.
Some two months ago a canvass show
ed only four of the persuasion in the
place, and one was converted since
then, so trio was left. Carmack men
were considerably aroused prior to the
opening of the polls by the report that
a Patterson man would challenge the
right to vote of number of them, and
also demand that they promise to stand
by the nominee. This, however, was
not done, no questions whatever be-
ing asked, one voter only being sworn
as to his residence. The election was
conducted by Craig Rollins, officer;
Sam Sherman and Standifer Bennett,
clerks; J. S. Deakins, John Hender-
son, W. S. Wilson, judges. Twenty
six votes were cast
For governor :-Carmack, %; Patter-
son, g.
