eagerly waiting for her return home.
1t is with regret we note the con-
tinued illness of Mrs. George M.

While in conversation with Mr.. S.

learned from him that he attended
school in Carrollton one session dur
ing the term of 1876, when Prof.
Bell was principal of the old Male and
Female Academy. While years have
passed Mr.. Nash remembered many
of the older citizens of the town and
/ inquired about those who he could
recall, among them still living, Dr.
S. H. Hill and Mr.. w. G. Robertson.

the training he received while attend

sible position which he later held.
