After silence Of two weeks, | will
again try TO write up Fairmount's
happenings.
All has been quiet, nothing very
startling having occurred
The storm, which has done so much
damage in nearby places did not reach
us. 1t passed along the foot Of Wald-
ems ridge, about six or seven miles
from here, doing considerable damage
starting at some point near the Suck,
it followed the ridge to where the An
derson road starts up the mountain,
and then went across Hamilton valley.
Many dwelling houses, barns and 9TH
er buildings lying in its pathway were
blown to pieces The Mountain Creek
school building was complete wreck.
Several persons were hurt but not ia
tally. But this might be called
estate news as the papers all over
the country have been full of storm
news for sometime. see in the last
issue of the News that Sequachee val
ley was sufferer as we'll as this part
of the country. We certainly sympa-
thize with all those who were living
in the section where the storm did
the worst damage From what we
have seen, it must have been "ter-
ror" while it lasted.

With the following lines from tn
Jestors' sermon | will close:
"Let no man halloo he is safe til
he is through the wood: He who vii
not when he may must tarry when h
should; He who laughs at crooke
men, must needs walk very straight
Oh, he who has won a name may Ii
a-bed till eight Make haste to pun
chase house and land, be very slow t
wed; True coral needs no painter
brush, nor need be daubed with red.
