they will take up their permanent residence
at their new home, Wild Goose Farm
above town. The Improvements tina
have been under way for the past year OF
more-since Mr.. Jarrett bought the place
from Mr.. r. D. Shepherd-have been al
most completed, though much yet remain:
to be done before the estate is what Mr.
Jarrett designs it to be. The mansion
house has been entirely remodeled and
modern comforts and conveniences have
been installed, making it delightful res
idence that yet retains the old-fashioned
charm of country homestead. Comfort
and utility and beauty have been wisely
blended, and few dwellings in the county
will be more attractive and desirable. II
is Mr.. Jarrett's intention to thoroughly
improve the estate and in time breed fan
cy stock and grow choice fruit, making
OF il ultimately model estate. Wehope
that he and his charming wife may find
our community all that they desire and
wish as home and that their surround
ings may be entirely congenial. They
have already won the sincerest esteem oil
those of our people who have met them,
and in mutual regard we trust that the
home of their adoption shall be a most
happy one.
