morrow,
Lately | have depended altogether
on my memory for items and | find
| sometimes forget them for awhile.
For instance, not long ago l found
the new mercantile firm of Vaughn
& Kyle at Plum Grove and ! feel
sure they will do a good business.
Rufe Jones of Rocket was in town
Saturday and showed me a statement
for about the biggest load of seed
cotton and the most money for IT |
have seen. He had 1885 pounds and
| it sold for S152.23. | know Rufe will
be able to renew when his time
shall have expired for he is making
half bale per acre. y. g. Anthony \.
lG. does not stand for no good but
! for Bud, farms near town, behaves
himself and 50 far as | know does
not NEEDLE with other peoples af-
! fairs. f. P. Killebrew, who lives on
| Midlothian 2, between Red Oak and
| Ovilla, raised some cotton but came
down into the cotton district to
work. Mrs Jennie Rains of Forreston
/ with her little son was shopping in
WaXahachie Saturday week, Mon
day morning b. B. and | started over
to the home of j. T. Carmichael on
Italy 8, but turned back. Mr.. Carmi-
chael is a fancier Of fine horses and
! has some beautiful specimens to his
credit. Mr.. Morton was rebuilding
where the house occupied by H. w.
/ Wilkins and family was recently des-
troyed by fire. On my way back to
/ Forreston ! met Mr.. and Mrs. J. T.
Rogers of Waxahachie Z, who were
on their way to visit Mrs. R par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. Jack bearing, on
the Sims farm. Dr. w. C. Nation of
Forreston, one of the leading physi-
tcians of Forreston, greeted me with
a renewal as l reached the city. At
ter dinner | started to see L. II. Mar
tin on Forreston /, but was about
three hundred yards behind him
and having left B. B. behind on aC-
count of the rough roads could not
overtake him ! found him in town
Saturday though and will probably
have no business with him for a
year Mr. and Mrs. Worsham, who
have been living on Forreston /
have moved to near Avalon on Italy
No. 2 Nestor b. Newton, an enter
prising, pushing druggist of Forces
ton was the first one whose name |
placed on my list and Tuesday morn
ing l got him for the third time.
How time does fly. w. b. Gains of
Forreston / was gathering his corn
which is light but it is better than
none S. s. jenkins and wife of Wax
ahachie were getting ready to
come to town TO have a tooth pulled
for one of their children. One of
their boys has had a long siege of
typhoid fever but is up and doing
we'll on Forreston / | found Mrs.
Pearson ILL., but l learn she is better,
I drove up to l. S. Pannell's on Wax
ahachie No in time to fill up on
good grub and give B. B. rest.
At Waxahachie l met d. II. Kyle
of Boyce Dr. High on Midlothian l
said he would like to get the seed of
one bale of cotton for all his farm
consisting of over 200 acres will
make. Nit Wa1dlaw of Milford l
was doing business in town and had
me send tho Enterprise to j. l.. West
IN the same route.
| failed to find j. l.. Rumsey at
home so | chased him into WaXa-
hachie where found him smiling
and accommodating | spent We'd
nesday, Thursday and most of Fri
day in town, so remember very little
that occurred other than that on
Thursday night | spent with Mr.. and
Mrs. r. B. Criddle. Mr.. Criddle
taught me most of the book learn
ing / got ard l fear spoiled a good
farmer by putting what | then
thought were big notions in my
head. However, if he made mistake
his intentions were good and ! hon,
or him as much as if l had been a
bowling success. MRS. Criddle fed
well for two years and was always
kind to me. May their days yet be
many and happy.
w. A. Renfro of Waxahachie 6
was in town one day last week. A
, F. Dahnke Ennis No. said he
would soon be up with his subscrip-
ton and renewed. V. r. Johnson OF
