On Sunday at the home of the
bride MI. B. Osborne was mar
ried to Miss Rosa Tyson, a popu-
lar belle Of Indianola. Mr.. Os-
borne has been in Tupelo for

job M. Stone Camp Confed-
crate Veterans of Tupelo is well
represented in Memphis at the
Reunion headed by commander,

The sponsor of the camp, Miss
Matte Bell Stone, with the mat
rons of honor, Mrs. G.. T. Mitchell

present and will take part in the
ceremonies in which the sponsors

Among the visitors to the re-
union is Capt. J. j. Rogers of
Tupelo, Miss. Capt. Rogers is
widely known throughout his
state and never misses an oppor-
tunity to visit the city. Speak

Capt Rogers met many of his:old
comrades who are now widely
scattered and his reunion was a
most pleasant one.
Appeal.
Among the former citizens of
Lee County who came from the
reunion to visit former friends
and relatives, we were pleased
to see our old time friend, Joe
Price. Mr.. Price served this
District as constable most accept
ably and is well remembered by
the people of the county. He
now resides in Texas and reports
that his section has been very
much in need of rain for some
time.
Mr.. and Mrs. M. E. Leake and
the children have returned from
Gunnerville, Ala, where they
were present at the Golden We'd
ding of Mr.. and Mrs. Hunter,
father and mother of Mrs. Leake.
Their entire family of ten child
rem, with a host of grandchildren
were there on this occasion. A re
markable factin connection with
the life of Mr.. and Mrs. Hunter
is that their entire family of ten
children survived and also that
none of them have been berett
in, the loss of a child.
The statement of the Bank of
Shannon made to the State Aud
itor June End, is found elsewhere
in our columns. This is the
youngest bank in the county and
Judging from it's report, the citi-
zens of Shannon are appreciat-
ing the service it affords the
community. Under the manage
ment of Mr.. Miller its line of de-
posts have increased and the
resources are ahead of this time
a year ago. The statement pub
lished shows that the institution
is managed conservatively and in
a business like way.
In the statement of the condi-
ton of the Farmers Bank &
Trust Co. as reported to the
State Auditor June 2, 1909, the
officers find several features
with which they may well call
attention. Their deposits are in
advance of those carried at this
season Of the year in any previ-
GUS year since the banks organ
ization. Their available assets
are fully ample to meet all the
| demands of the bank and show
that the institution continues its
safe and conservative course.

F, zier attended the exhibition CIV
en- by Mrs. Hardy at the Blue
Mountain Female College on
last Friday. Mrs. Hardy has
charge of the primary depart
ment beginning with the first
grade and including the fifth.
The exhibit was high class
work and proved Mrs. Hardy
to be one of the finest primary
teachers in the state. The
teachers from Tupelo were ex-
tended every courtesy by the co..
lege faculty and were delight ed
with the trip.
