Byrd-Recker Company
 To Put On Lot Sale

Within the next two weeks the
 Byrd Rocker Reality Company of St. Louis, will hold big sale of
 beautiful building lots in Marianna.
 Through T. P. Foster, we'll known real estate agent, the Byrd Rocker Company has purchased the six acre tract of land in Southeast Mari anna, known as the Dupuy tract, owned by the school district. The board of directors of the school dis trict bought the property more than a year ago intending to use it as a site for new high school Later the board bought the Hutton prop erty on Pearl street, hence it's de- cision to dispose of the Dupuy prop erty. The new owners are reputa- ble and reliable real estate men who make speciality of sub-divid- ing city property and conducting auction sales. They are now en- gagged in grading the lots and beau tifying them and within the next week they will be ready for public inspection. The company has a large display announcement in this issue of the Courier-Index and next week another announcement will appear giving the data of the auc- tion sale. There will be twenty nice large lots made of the tract. That section of Marianna is rapidly becoming a most desirable resi- dence section. New homes by D. P. Hilton, Angus Mahan and D, s. Hummer are now being erected on the Robertson Addition near the Dupuy tract. The new owners of the Dupuy property have purchased a strip of land from Senator J. T. so as to make all their lots uniform in size.

Must Number Houses
 For Free DeliUerH

Postmaster Claude J. Cetter states the authorities are ready to inau- gurate free delivery of mail service Tn Maranna as soon as the people here comply with the requirements demanded by the postoffice depart ment, chief among which is the numbering of the houses and the installation of boxes or receptacles into which the carrier may deposite the mail. It was the intention of the department to begin this serv- ice about March I, but so little in terest has been manifested by the people in the matter of numbering their homes and installing the re- ceptacles that the department has been forced to delay, temporarily, the delivery system. Under the rules of the department at least 85 per cent of the houses must be numbered before the delivery sytem may be started. If the people of Marianna really want the city de- livery they will have to get busy.

PiW Roller Pulled

Paul Revere of revolutionary fame
 nay have done a handsome eques-
 .rian feat when he spurred his
 ,aithfuI nag through the primeval
 orests of old New England and
 summoned the honest yoemenry to lrms to throw off the galling yoke ,f British oppression, and during
 nore recent times the late lament sd Teddy Roosevelt gained more han local fame as a rider in the rough of untamed steeds, but it re- mained for Dr. NJ. McLendon, a sturdy Scot of characteristic deter imitation, to pull a revised version of the Revere and Roosevelt feats by the employment of Fordson farm lizzie to carry the "balm of Gilead' to the afflicted. Doc had call-- an urgent call--to a patient near Soudan, in the bottoms eight miles east of Marianna. He had travel ed that alleged wet weather road several days before in his roadster and had to call on all the neighbor- ing mules to drag him through the mud. He baked at starting with an ordinary horse-drawn vehicle be- cause he knew there were holes deep enough and large enough to bury his entire caravan beyond the hope of immediate resurrection. In his delomma Geo. Hays, the tract or expert of the St. Francis Motor Company, suggested the trip be made in or on Fordson tractor the one the company has in stock for demonstration purposes. A. c. Rauscher, the manager of the com pany, agreed to the suggestion. He felt sure the Fordson would prove a real mud demon-and it did. Hays did the driving and Doc sat on the gas tank-and they went to Docs patient. They hardly look ed like humans when they arrived, but the saccor was none the less effective. When they returned they stood their togs up in a corner of the garage to dry, debating wheth- CT or not they would be made de- fendants in damage suit for the removal of enough rich soil at pres ent prices of real estate to consti- ute charge of grand larceny.

Col. John J. Hughes, nestor of Haynes, one of the wealthiest and most prominent citizens of Lee county, died at his home in Haynes last Sunday morning of Bright's disease. Up to sixty or ninety days ago Col. Hughes appeared in splen- did physical condition, though mem bers of his family and intimate friends knew he was suffering from an incurable malady. He went to Hot Springs in the hope that he would get relief, but his condition became so alarmingly worse that he returned to Haynes to spend his last days. Col. Hughes would have been sixty one years of age on Thursday, March IS, 1920. He was born and reared near Haynes and spent all his life in that communi- ty and town. For nearly half a century he had been the dominant figure in the affairs of Haynes and Union township. Though he had never sought public office, he was recognized as power in political matters and his support and influ- ence was always sought by those seeking the votes of the people in Union township. As a public spirit ed citizen, always working, always contributing literally of his means to all movements calculated to ad- vance the interests of his commu- nity and his county, Col. Hughes stood without a peer. By his in- dustry, his wonderful business abil- ity and his keen insight into human nature he carved for himself name and fortune that crown the eff forts of few men. He was a most lovable, congenial and affable man. His home was noted for it's hospi- tality He was a prince of fine fellows, a royal entertainer and a man of wonderfully attractive per sonality To know him was to love him. He had strong convictions, unswerving fealty to an ideal and
 to his friends. He bore himself like Chesterfield. He was as coura- geous as lion and embodied all S~>~~~~<~~~~~-~>>~~~>~<~ ~~~~S~~>~~~~~~->~>~~>
