THREE STORE BUILDINGS SOLD.
Judge A T Roane q Big Real Eestate
Purchaser.

On Tuesday of this week, Judge
A. +. Roane bought three store
buildings from Mrs. Cora Griffis. One
of them is the building now occupied
by H. K. Barwick and the other two
are the buildings occupied by w. C..
Welker as a barber shop and by ].
H. Roach as an electric shoe repair
shop. 1t is understood that the price
was $15,000.00.
Judge Roane, though seventy five
years of age is one of the most Wig
orous and active men in Grenada.
He moves at rapid gait at anything
he goes at. Ordinarily a man who
has seen as many summers as the
Judge would not be expected to be
giving much consideration to real
estate deals. In this connection, if
the philosophy of the late Capt. j. J.
Slack is to be credited, Judge Roane's
venture may be taken as a sure sign
that all business affairs of Grenada
are to be looking way upward. Mr..
Slack said that whenever Judge Roane
bought property he had some intui-
tion about it and everybody else
would then be looking for deals. The
is rather significant

GRENADA TRUST AND
BANKING COMPANY
Hold Annual Meeting-One Of Most
Prosperous Since Organization
Deposits Over $4OO, 200. .00-22% 20
Dividend Declared.


The regular annual meeting of the
stockholders of the Grenada Trust &
Banking Company was held on Thurs
day, Jany. 8th, 1920. The reports
submitted showed the Bank had had
a remarkable growth during the past
year, and to have been the most
prosperous year since its organiza-
ton in 1908. The report of the
President showed net profit Of
4O@o on the capital stock. Of this
amount 22%o dividend was ordered
paid and the balance passed to the
surplus account.
This Bank has been one of the
most successful organizations in the
State and has made quite record,
having paid to the shareholders
2049s on their holdings and built up
a large surplus account of 100000;
the last sale of stock that was made
being three for one. The reports
showed the deposits of the Bank to
have increased more than 100000
during the past year.
The directors have been most faith
full, they having had regular meet
ing each month with more than a
quorum present at each meeting, and
besides the check of the Directors
the report of the President showed
the Banks affairs had been audited
by two different State Bank Examin-
ers without a criticism or correction
from either.
H. j. Ray was reelected Presi
dent, Cowles Horton Vice President

REV. ]. w. LEE TENDERS
HIS RESIGNATION

1t is understood that Rev. ]. w.
Lee rendered his resignation last Sun
day to the congregation of the Cen
trail Baptist church. Mr.. Lee has
served that church faithfully; indeed
he was its first and only pastor. His
splendid personality and stalwart
christian character have meant much
to that church, and the community as
a whole will regret that the severing
of his pastoral relations will likely
mean that he will be in Grenada only
infrequently- Mr.. Lee moved from
Grenada to Batesville about six years
ago and is also serving the church in
that town. He has world of per-
sonal friends in Grenada.

J. M. WINDHAM PASSES
TO THE BEYOND

Mr.. j. M. Windham died Tuesday
night at his home in Grenada at s
o'clock after short illness. Bright's
disease was the immediate cause OF
his death. He was about 65 years
of age.
Mr.. Windham was born in Alabama
but came with his parents to Missis-
sippi when quite child and was rear.
ed some few miles south of Grenada
in Carroll County( but had been a
Grenada resident for thirty-five years
or more. He was a man of remarka-
BILE industry and had attained fair
success as business man. As bust
ness factor, he was a natural boost
er and was aggressive about all his
undertakings. He had been worth
great deal to the business life of
Grenada and many have credited him
with being Invaluable to Grenada as
past few years.
Jim Windham lived according to the
best lights before him. When once
he determined on a line of duty, it
was difficult indeed to swerve him.
He met his duty to his friends, his
neighobrs, his church and the State
in a manner to commend him to all
thoughtful citizens. His children, ir:
whose training his devoted wife who
survives him greatly aided, is the
very best evidence Of the character
of the man and of the life he en-
deavored to live. He was kind, con-
siderate, clever and obliging to one
and all. When it came to moral is
sues and those questions SO often
highly important in the affairs of
his own community, he could always
be counted on to get on the side with
the best and most forward looking
citizens.
The church Of his choice received
his most loyal and Jealous support.
He was long superintendent Of the
Sunday School at the Central Baptist
church in Grenada and at the time
of his death was treasurer and will
be greatly missed in the activities Of
the congregation of that church. As
a husband, he was devoted and kind;
as a father, he was thoughtful and
The funeral services were conduct
ed from the residence Wednesday af-
ternoon by Rev. j. w. Lee, pastor of
The Central Baptist church, whom he
dearly loved. Mr.. Lee paid beauti-
full tribute to the life of the deceased.
[nterment was had in Odd Fellows
cemetery.
Mr.. Windham is survived by his
wife, one son and three daughters.

GRENADA CITIZEN ENTERS
WHOLESALE FIRM
e. L. Bass One Of Main Stockholders
In Big Shoe Firm.

Mr.. E. l.. Bass, one Of Grenada
most substantial and most popular
citizens, has only recently o., become
one of the largest stockholders in the
Lund-Mauldin Shoe Co. of St. Louis
handlers exclusively of mems shoes
This concern, while organized only
about four or five years ago, has al.
ready established a trade second to
only a few of the oldest and largest
wholesale shoe stores in St. Louis
Mr.. Mauldin is himself a Mississippi
an and was for a number of years
a travelling salesman that made this
territory.
Mr.. Bass is an experienced travel
ing salesman. For long while, or up
until this year, he has represented in
this territory, the large dry goods
concern of Rice-Stix and the records
show him to have been one of their
most successful statesmen. He goes
with this shoe firm armed with all of
his experience and his record already
made is an introduction to the conf
dence of the best business firms of
this section and it is no extravaganza
to predict that Mr.. Bass sales as a
representative of the Lund-M -Mauldin
Shoe Co. will greatly exceed the ex-
ceptional record he made with the
Rice-Stix Dry Goods Co. The Lund-
Mauldin Shoe is one Of the very best
shoes on the market and is made to
appeal to the tastes of those who
want not only one Of the very best
fitting and handsomest shoes but a
shoe for service as well. There is
perhaps no firm that ever opened in
st. Louis whose shoes have attained
such a popularity in SO short while
as this one.
Mr.. Bass is not only to be con-
graduated but this wholesale shoe
store should congratulate itself that
it was able to make him a member of
the firm.

Mr.. J. C Wilson, Mr.. w. B. Hoffa
and several others are the leaders in
organizing $4,000 brick plant in
Grenada. The stock has all been
practically subscribed and it is un-
derstood that the organization will be
completed about March /. The pro-
moters are enthusiastic over the pro-
ject. Grenada has ideal soil for max
ing brick. A number Of tests have
recently been made and the advices
are that no locality excels this one
in the right sort of soil. With Gre
nada's location and the high price of
lumber, it would seem that every brick
that can be made will readily be
sold. Lumber prices make it certain
that the public must turn to using
brick more in all structures.

At meeting of the officers and
directors of the Grenada Trust and

ier. The Sentinel congratulates the
Bank on its good judgment and also
tongratulates Mr.. huntington. He
started almost on the ground floor
with the Bank and has, by devotion
to his duty and by efficiency and
faithfulness, received this deserved
promotion. He is a very dependable
young man in all matters and The
Sentinel will be surprised il he does
not make q big business success. He
comes of an excellent parents.
