Rain and cold weather was the
order of the day, though rather
late in the season, the early part
of this week. It was feared the
fruit crop was somewhat injured,
but men of experience with fruit
say it was not far enough advan-
ed to be killed.
Owing to the recent rains and
fresh working, the roads of this
section are in a deplora'ble condi
tion and some of them are difficult
to travel. The overseers of the
roads differ somewhat in opinion
as to the amount o’f labor to be
used on the roads. Some are ap
plying it to the extent of the law,
and say they will work the entire
fifteen days, while others deem it
unnecessary and will not work
more than is absolutely neces
sary.
The County Commissioners have
granted a public road from Hous
er’s mill by Mr. R. S. Wool folk’s
and on by Mrs. Bassett’s place
which, when completed, will fur
nish a nearer and straighter route
from Byron to the mill, Mr. A.
J. Houser has charge of the road
and will have it in traveling order
for the people of that section by
time the wheat crop isharvested.
Mr. D. J. Walker’s wagons
loaded with seed cotton passed
through the village last week to
Mr. G. F. Doles’ ginnery, where
he finished ginning his crop of
cotton made last year, His crop
must have been immense by its
taking him this late to finish.
One or more of our f tuners have
planted corn, but if it had been
up Tuesday morning, March 18,
it would have fared bad.
One of the most enjoyable so
cial events connected with the
history of our village, was a party
given in honor of the young peo
ple of this vicinity at the resi
dence of Mr. and Mrs. James T.
Hancock Wednesday night, March
19th. It being a bright moon
light night and the weather pleas
ant, the company began to assem
ble early and by half-past eight
o’clock, the party was completed,
each anticipating the pleasure in
tervening between then and the
time for their departure. The
guests were Misses Caroline John
son, Maryanne White, Murrie
Russell, Pauline Tabor, Mamie
Rooks and Kate Johnson; Messrs.
S.W, and A. W. Tabor, J. A.
Rooks, J. W. Preston, J. P.
Heard, Leonard Rooks and Carl
Sledge; Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Ault-
man and Masters Claud and G-us
Smith, Willie Merritt and Virgil
Rooks. The party amused them
selves with music, (violin^and
harp) quadrills, tete-a-tetes and
jokes until the clock proclaimed
the hour of midnight, when the
guests began making preparations
for departure, each affiriming
that it was one of the most enjoy
able occasions of the season, and
hoping to meet again soon on a
similar occasion.
We regrtt to say that the con
dition of Mrs. J. H. Howard is
not yet much improved, and she
is still suffering from a long and
severe illness.
Mrs. W. A McLemore has been
seriously ill for the past few
weeks, but we have been informed
that she is some better, and her
recovery is very much hoped for.
Mr. Ed Stalneckerjhad the mis
fortune to lose a mule a few days
ago.
Mr. Joe P. Heard, one of the
R. F. D. mail carriers, had the
misfortune by accident to get his
buggy broken Friday, while deliv

The Thursday Afternoon Oluh.
We had such a delightful time
when our club met with Mrs. H.
T. Gilbert, on the afternoon of
the 6th inst., that it should have
been told of long ago. But good
tilings keep well, and so memory
will play us no tricks in recalling
the happenings of that afternoon,
though recounting them is quite
another thing. Our charming
hostess, as she moved among her
guests; reminded us as she left our
side of Longfellow’s beautiful
lines, “When she had passed, it
seemed like the ceasing of exquis
ite music,” to which her graceful
assistants, Misses Annie Holle-
man, Mary and Martha Killen,
lent a charming acconipaniameut.
