[Too LATE FOR LAST WEEK.
F. M. Ferguson, of Poplar
Plains, was here last week. He
was accompanied home by Miss
Nettie Patrick.
The infant child of Mr.. and
Mrs. 7. G. Hamilton died the
18th inst. Recently the child
was taken to Louisville for treat
ment of it's mouth and lived only
a short time after reaching home
with it. To the grief stricken
parents we invite them to the
language of Jesus for comfort,
Suffer little children and for
bid them not to come unto me,
for of such is the kingdom Of
Heaven"
Now that the election is over
we hope that the defeated can
didates and their friends will be
content with their portion at the
present time. You should bear
in mind that it is easy for men
to dig their own political graves.
Your time might be next, so re-
member the old adage which is
worthy of all acceptation: In
union there is strength, in divis-
ion, weakness. Get on the band
wagon and march with us to vic
tory.
We feel proud of the noble
work the grand jury is doing
and believe they understand
their job as we'll as any jury
Morgan county ever had. May
the good work continue until
each violator will be brought tc
speedy justice.
