On Monday last Messrs. Edward
Heard, T. D. Gninn, E. O. Lee and
our editor bagged 43 partridges, leav¬
ing town after 8 o’clock in the morn¬
ing. That is good hunting.
Rev. Dr, James L. Pierce and wife
so well known in this community,
have moved to Dallas, Texas, to live
with their son, Col. Foster Pierce,
who is practicing law and doing well
in that city.
A pleasant party came off at Mr.
N, C. Lee’s Brick Pillar place nil Fri¬
day evening last His charming
daughter’s, Misses Maud and Claude,
were instrumental in getting up the
party and did all in their power to
make the occasion enjoyable. Quite
a number of young people from town
were in attendance and all report hav¬
ing had a most excellent time.
There will be a supper at the resi¬
dence of Mrs. E. IX Dyer Friday
evening, Nov. 29, for the benefit of
the Presbyterian church. Supper,
from 7 to 11 p. m. Everybody cor¬
dially invited. We hope the people
of this community will patronize this
supper liberally, for our Presbyterian
friends are always generous in their
patronage to every worthy object.—
Be sure to attend.
Our friend, Dr. W. J. Higgins, oi
Fayetteville, Tenn., sends us a paper
giving an account of a “corn contest”
in his county. Mr. Brit Dillingham
bad 10 years of corn that weighed
161bs and 10 ounces. 280 ears of this
corn weighed 402 pounds and «2
ounces. Thus it is that less than 50
ears of this corn would make a bush¬
el, allowing 701bs to the bushel. There
were 28 entries aud all exhibited fine
corn.
Rev W. H. LaPrade is attending
the annual North Georgia Methodist
Conference which convenes in Cedar
town to-day. Whether he will be re
turned to this charge next year or not
is hard to tell, for quite a number of
influential and wealthy churches are
very anxious to secure his services.
However, we are almost certain that
he will be sent to this place again.—
As a pulpit orator and earnest worker
he is the peer of any divine in the
Methodist ministry.
We will pay a cash reward of 35
cents for any information which will
lead to the discovery of the hard¬
hearted w retch who come to ourghan
ty one cold night last week, during
the absence of our better-half, and
sung this song:
“I’d rather be a bachelor,
Thnn be a married man,
Because I do just as I please,
The married as they can.
For when a man doth marry,
His freedom he must loose,
Give up his all ami then submit
To do as his wife may choose.”
Messrs. Thompson & Farmer are
ready to store and insure cotton at 25
cts. per bale, and make flattering ad
vances on every pound. They have
plenty of money and are not only
willing, but are anxious, to do all in
their power for the farmers of Middle
Georgia Both are experienced cot
ton and business men and take pleas
ure in filling orders for goods and sup
plies at prices heretofore unheard of
in this city. Call and see them at
their store and warehouse, opposite
the depot, also read their advertise¬
ment in this paper.
