Last Thursday it was our pleas
ure to have visit from our venera-
bic friend, Col. Robert A. Thompson,
who has come to be quite a stranger
about the Court House since his re-
tirement from the practice of his
profession. The Colonel is looking
remarkably well and stated that he
IS now feeling better than he has for
some time. On the 18th of June he
celebrated his seth birthday, and
though Time has operated to take
away some of the elasticity Of step
and to pail upon the exhuberance
OF youth. the Colonel is by no means
'shelved." For one Of his age he is
still quite active. so much so, in
TACT, that but recently he has been
engaging in the art of horse swap
ping, he having replaced his old re-
liable steed (Which was about fifty
years his junior) Cor more jaunty
animal. 1t has not been long since
the Colonel informed us that his old
horse, with which he has parted, just
suited him. we are growing old
together" he said, "and never fear
a runaway accident, and my horse
VIII never be hurt with over-driv-
lnS.' But THE Yes ibule" or "No.
81, as his old steed was well known
about the Court House, aged faster
than the Colonel, and he has been
replaced by sleek little animal that
makes better showing and suits his
venerable master better, too. Col.
thompson seems to be growing
Young and there are hundreds upon
hundreds in Oconce and over the
state who will join with us in the
nope that Oconce's grand old man"
