IF Won will allow me little space
in your 'snewsy'' News, | will try to
pencil few of the happenings OF oui
quiet little community. We have
some little "fnssing' and some little
disturbances in our community, Dat
nothing serious results, so you see
there is no real harm done, so we
can boast of having a very quiet set-
Element
Health in this settlement is unusual
IL good, there being only one or two
cases of sickness requiring the atten-
tion of the doctors. Mrs. w. ID.
Griffith is in a very critical condition,
and it is feared by many that she VIII
never recover. Her case seems to bar
fie the skill of all our best physicians.
All the doctors of Whitwell have
treatNd her and failed. Then Drs La
CIV and Turner, of Jasper, have tried
their best remedies and failed and Dr.
Thompson was called and he has fail
ed to give her permanent relief, and
now DR.. Shelton is treating her case,
and it seems that their efforts are all
in vain, We do hope that relief will
be obtained and she will be soon re-
stored to health again.

crossing very satisfactory with their

is interfering with their progress some
as it prevents Will Griffith, who is at
