DEATH OF 3. 3. McWHITE

Summerfield, Fla, June %, 1911.
Special to the Ocala Banner:
Out of respect to the late Mr.. B. B.
McWhite, who died Thursday at 1910
a. m, from an attack of paralysis,
which came upon him last Wednesday
evening, there will be no moving pic
ture show or dance here this evening.
Mr.. McWhite has been a resident of
Symmetrical for the past six years,
and was one of our leading merchants.
He was prominent in church circles.
and recently donated lot to the Bap-
fist congregation, upon which is now
in course of construction Baptist
church building.
Some time ago. while on visit to
Tampa, he was run down by an auto
mobile and was made a cripple for
life, and this accident is without
doubt the cause of his untimely death
Mr. McWhite leaves a widow and
three children, Bryan, Mary and Meta.

Mr.. Freero, who wanted hammock
land, and selected 80 acres just east
of town, has six acres cleared. This
land was very hard to clear, being
heavily timbered, and when you con-
slider the short time Mr.. Freero has
been there, having arrived on the 18th
of April, and the fact that he only had
one man to help him, he surely has
made a fine showing. He will plant
it to cowpeas as the first crop.
Mr.. w. H. Worden has the larger
part of his ten acres in 1929 plow-
ed, and will have it fenced and in fine
condition for a fall crop.
Mr.. C. F. Clapper has taken the con-
tract for the new ditch along the
south side of section 1888, and will
commence work at once. The ditch
will extend west one mile into Sec
ton 10, and will relieve all this sec
ton of all the surplus water that
might come during the rainy season.
The ditch along the south sides of
sections So, Sc, II and % is working
perfectly. This was demonstrated
when we had our recent heavy rain.
The ditch empties into Hill Creek,
which carries the water into the Ok
lawaha river.
Mr.. A. Robertson has taken the con-
tract to dig ditch in section 26-12-23,
and it is expected that this ditch will
relieve all the territory in this vicin-
ity. The company has done quite a
lot of ditching so far, and this work
will be pushed, where needed, as rap
idly as possible.
Mr.. Otis C. Scarborough has bought
the Moore and Swain interest in the
grocery store of Moore, Cook and
Swain, and the style of the new firm
is Scarborough and Cook. Mr. Stan
brough informs us that business is
picking up and feels very much elated
and expects to build up fine bust
ness. Success to the new firm.
The county has the hard road be-
tween Fort Mccoy and Eureka sur
veyed, and expect to start the grading
at once. The road will run east and
west along the section lines south of
sections II, Z and s. When complet-
ed this road will make a vast i'm
provement and be a big help to ev-
eryone living along and near this
highway, as well as those who enjoy
visiting the Oklawaha river at Eu-
reka.
