FROM FAR
AWAY CANADA

Many people OF Audrain coun-
ty remember j. h. (Dick) Shell,
who moved from here to Canada
few years ago. Mr.. Shell was
reared to manhood on a farm
three miles northwest of Mexico.
The farm now is composed of l6O
acres and is owned by Alfred
Cox. j. h. Shell was the son of
the late Judge James Shell, and
Inc married Miss Lulu McCune Of
Pike county, who was the daugh-
ter Of the late Judge Guy Me
Cune. A brother of Mrs. Shell,
John S. McCune, now resides at
Laddonia, and two other brothers,
Judge G. McCune and VIM. Nc
Cune, live at Vandalia.
In connection with the above
the following from the Laddonia
Herald will be of interest. Miss
Leila Shell, who is mentioned, is
the daughter Of j, Il. Shell:
Mrs. Field Akrdge received "A
letter from Miss Leila Shell of
Tofeld Alta, Canada, last week in
which she says: "We are having
ideal weather. The town where |
am teaching is going to the front.
They have struck natural gas, and
real estate is advancing rapidly.
| am now getting $3.50 for ten
months school. Have added
another teacher to this school. We
had fine crops this year. There Is
quite a bit of threshing to do yet.
| don't go home very often as |
am 200 miles from my parents.
Father still thinks Canada a great
place. Richard Shell, my brother,
has been batching this year. He
is getting to te qoite an expert
housekeeper. Guy Shell is also
patching. Mack Shell and his
wife are about 5 or miles from
us. They built a new home in the
spring"

Stopped one day at st. Louis.
Took in the town, Forest Park,
Union Market, and all over the

scrapers, then to a big picture

dimes in box. AT 8 80 that even

Flyer for Nashville. Tenn. Stop
ped a half day and took in the
sights. This place is growing fast
and is a good town. From here
we went TO Chattanooga This
place is now nearly $4,000. Here
we of course had to take the trip
up Lookout Mountain, where my
esteemed friend, VIM. Frazier,
who lives on North Clark street
at Mexico, claims he scaled this
mountain, which seems almost
impossible. lie did it though
when the bullets were falling
thick all around him. There are
thousands of graves of Southern
and Northern soldiers side by
side, with small white slabs at
each, to tell who they were, and
there were nearly three times as
many Union soldiers killed as
there were Of the Southern. A
Colonel of the Southern army rold
me that they killed more Union
soldiers there than the Rebels had
IN their army. He said he was
now glad the war ended as it did
and that they were now all for the
Union i'll the South.
From Chattanooga we went to
Atlanta, Georgia, and stopped
there a short time. This is a big
city and has some splendid build
lngs. Here are thousands of sol
dicrs buried, but each side has
separate places of burial.
Our next stop was at Waycross,
Georgia. ! was not impressed

Is good business done here but
every line Of business seems to be
overdone. There are all kinds of
people here, but the Dagos seem
to predominate in all kinds of
business. The weather was very
cold and it showed on us all the
way from Nashville to Waycross
and then it rained from there to
Jacksonville. From Waycross to
jacksonville there is no soil and
! would not give a section of land
in Audrain county for an entire
county. A man from Illinois
bought farm of 100 acres east of
Waycross and he put it out in
various stuff, but it rained all the
season. When it stopped raining,
the cut worms had eaten up all
the crop. He then left his Iarm
ard returned to Illinois.
jacksonville had street car
strike last month and they say
that it made times dull for a
while. The sheriff and Mayor

kept the people quiet.
Northern people are now com
ing in every day, but most of
them go further souIh-to Miami
Palm Beach and the Indian River
Country, where the finest oranges
IN the world are grown. Others
go to Orlando, Leesburg, Kissum-
