Mr. E. E. England, Brutlmr of our
towiim.imii, Dr. W. G. Epgland, has
been in town for several days tin*
representative of tho Grangers Life
and Health Imuniuro Company, an
advertisement of which is in this pa
per. Mr.‘Engl ml belongs to tho
head department of the Company at
Mobile, Ala., and came up for the
purpose of paying the policy of tho
lamented Miss Flora Mclvor, who
died in this town about Chri -t,mas,and
was insured in this company. Tho
policy has been paid by Mr. England,
showing tho promptness and relia
bility of this company. Mr. Eng
land is a genial gentleman and we
hope he’ll visit our town again soon.
Tuekduy night last, was ono memo-
ruble to all who participated in tho
moonlight pic-nic at the residence of
Mr. J. O. Waddell. Although, it as
sumed the name given above, it might
have been more properly called tho
“star-light pic-nic, for Luna seeming
ly not so anxious to shed her brilliant
rays upon the merry opowd, was slow
to make her appearance attovu tno
Eastern borrison. Consequently we
were compelled to be content with
tho lesser lights, which
‘•On the world in beauty fell,’’
imparling to each and every one feel
ings of admiration and delight.
Two by two the number continued
to increase up to the hour of ten,
when couples could be soon in almost
every direction; some sitting, some
standing, and others following the
meandering paths, leading around
the beds of fragrant flowers, from
whence, occasionally a Tfisd was pluck
ed by a pair oi lilly white hands, and
pinned to the lapel of “a fellah’s’
coat, with such a sweet smile, as
would at once lead one to believe that
she would fain quote the words of
ono of our ‘b’hoyK,‘ “now won’t you
love me a leetle drap.”
At, or near the hour of twelve sup
per was announced,and by our smiling
host we were conducted to the table
which wus laden with tho most tempt
ing viands. Mr. Allen was called ou
for a blessing, after which, everybody
“sailed in,” and those “wittles” began
to disappear. About one or two o’clock
the crowd began to break up, every
body going home well contented with
their nights pleasure, and the air was
ringing with praises and thunks to
our kind host and hostess.
TO THE PUBLIC.
A Card From Win. Meeks.
Polk Co., Jail, May 3rd 1877.
1 cannot leave your midst without

ciE<* tin stern mandates » f tho law.
To all who have been kind enough
to treat mo kindly and humanely I
extend them them thanks. I leave you
