Greene County herald. (Leakesville, Miss.) 1898-current, 1908-10-23

God intended that there should
be one day each week as an e5-
pecial day for the culture of home
ties. A day when the father
would be home from work, and
the children home from school,
and the mother have less of ire
household care, when all could put
on their best clothes, sing their
sweetest songs, aud enjoy a day of
love. The Sabbath should never
be made a day of labor in the
home. The work of each home
shuold be so arranged that it can
be done almost entirely in Xix days
and as evenly as possible in each
day. "Six days shalt thou labor
and do all thy work.
The baking and cooking can be
done on Saturday, and Sunday can
be made almost entirely day for
warming over the prepared be-
fore. We fear MAN, good house
wives make seriougs mistake in
giving too much time to Sunday
cooking. Others perhaps are equal
ly in error by overworking on Sat

Now comes the paragraph laden
with figures and facts. The stock
holders and directors, so our infor-
nations says, are not only of the
best people in the county, but are
nearly all.taxpayers and residents of
the county, qualified electors, even
polltax payers. The larger or
pretty near all of the stock being
owned at home makes it closer to
the interests of this people. Some
changes in the ownership of sew
eral fairly large blocks of stock
lately have made this more true.
These owners and officials have the
welfare of Greene County and its
people at heart. The capital and
surplus is about $3.50 It has
always paid Unexpectedly large div
idends, showing over 10 per cent
during this panicky year, and has
for its situation outclassed any
bank in the state for the amount
of deposits continuously carried.
The official personnel was named in
our previous article.

AN ANCIENT LEGAL DOCUMENT.

The document exhibited here be-
low, is a governmental permit is
sued to John j. McInnis, the great
grandfather of John j. McInnis, of
Leakesville Miss, when the former
was leaving Georgia early in the
SOS as an immigrant to the Miss
issippi Territory. This paper was
put into our hand recently by the
living John. and is in a fair state
of preservation considering its age.
Outside of some severances on the
paper in the folds and a slight yell
lowing, it shows but little effect
of the long years wear. Capt. j..
F. MCLEAN, has had it in possess
ion for number of years and tur-
ned it over to the present John to
be shown to US. The date it was
issued, the reader will notice is
1911, the year before the Second
War with England or the War of
1872. And the same year that
Greene County was organized. And
six years before Mississippi was adj

bad treatment of these friendly
Indians by occasional white adven-
turers had emphasized the necessity
for q settler with good intents to
come equipped with such documents
to commend them to the good
graces of the Indians who suffered
them to pass through, and served
them with their crude ferries and
lodging places. Presumably McInnis
came straight on through to what
that year became Greene County
soil, under its organization into
county of the territory of Mississ-
ippi.. We are informed that he set
tied and built the place now known
as the Jepsy Clark homestead. No
tice that McInnis had some negro
slaves along.
Another point worthy Of snctice
from this letter is that it reveals
that the State Capital of Georgia
was at Milledgeville when it was
written.
