at Peters Greek

Mr.. Editor: We will give you few
dots from this side Of the county.
The holidays passed Off very quietly in
this section, there being very little evi-
dence of drinking, in fact, the least we
have ever seen at Christmas time.
The Christmas tree at Peters Creek
school house passed off very nicely. The
children did their part well and their
teacher, Miss Wilkes of Fairfield county,
saw to it that each one of her pupils re-
cevcd present from the Christmas
tree. Several of the good people from
Dacusville were in attendance.
The writer had the pleasure of attend
ing the fish and oyster supper given by
the Dacusvile camp w. O. w. one even
ing during the holidays, and tell you,
those 'Dacusvile choppers" will have a
fellow enjoy himself when among them.
We hope we may get to attend more lust
such suppcrs n the future.
Miss Christine Edcns is spendinp n
few days with her uncle, j. Nj. Turner,
OF DacuSVillc, this week.
Annie the little five year old daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. l.. s. Edcns, who has
been quite sick, is convalcscing now.
Mamie May, the youngest daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. +. r. Edcns, is quite
sick at this writing.
Best wishes to you, Mr.. Editor, with
your office force and all your readers in

the loss of a dear one, were sad and to
my imagination since heart has been
broken and SO many earthly jewels borne
away by death, the yulc- tide season held
no great charm for such, but may heav-
Ell heal the broken spirit and may the
ensuing New Year bring blessings and
gladness to all
