ITEMS FROM THE
TERRY COUNTY HERALD

The writer had quite a little con
versation with Uncle John Love
lady, Of Post, Texas, just before
train time Saturday. Uncle John
has quite a nice sheep ranch in this
county and comes up occasionally
10 look after this end Of his BUSH
ness. He is still hale and hearty,
despite his advanced age, and his
mind Is as clear as a bell. Uncle
John settled near where Justiceburg
now stands in 1874 when this whole
end Of Texas was a sure Wild West
proposition-a bowling wilderness,
indeed. He told as a story about
bunch Of the young sprouts Of
that day and himself on buffalo
hunt in those days, and about mid
afternoon one day, these young men,
especially one Of them became very
thirsty for water. He said they be-
gan TO hunt water, but the creek
seemed 10 be as dry as a bone, but
he told the boys that water must
not be far off as the Indian signs
were in evidence around there. Fin
ally, he said, ! found the water be-
tween two cottonwoods and hailed
the other fellows. Being asked If
there was enough water for the
horses, he replied: "NO, there was
scarcely enough for the men. He
said the young man that was so
thirsty stuck his whole face in the
water when he lay down 10 drink.
lie said It was only a seen. and af-
forded little water. The Indians
had dug out a small place with their
tOmahawSs.
Albert Curry Of Lynn county, was
over this week and reported that
they received good rains the early
part Of this week. and that he was
preparing 20 put in a crop. Albert
was employed by the Herald until
recently. when business took flight
TO some unknown cline that we do
not wish TO mention in these col
umns, but he has promised 60 be
with US again when the promised
Republican prosperity reaches US.
Albert is one Of the most moral and
Trustworthy boys we have ever had
dealing with, and we predict he
will make a par-excellent printer
some day.

came pretty near passing in his
check last Saturday night from
corn whiskey. He was
