Texas*, Oct. 29, 1902. —We left Toccoa a few days ago, hasting to the bedside of a sick son at this place, and are glad to say that we found Henry some better and still improving slowly, under the skillful attention of able phy¬ sicians. He is surrounded with good neighbors who are lending a helping hand to him in his sickne 0 s Henry has a fine son one month old today 4 and a good little wife to help him fight life’s battles and make his home life comfortable and pleasant. Greenville is a splendid little city, and has many noble hearted people. It is surrounded with fine farm lands and th© farms are all equipped with the letest improved implements. Among the industries here are an oil mill, ice factory, iron foun¬ dry and other establishments, Two good banks and numbers of solid business houses’ water works, etc., all help to add to the property of the city. There are several fine church buildings, all of which are filled every Sunday—and one of the pulpits is occupied by a North Georgia boy,Elder Robert Jenkins, an old school mate of mine, We went to hear him preach Sunday. His text was from the 15th chapter of Joshua, nth vease. There are six hundred members in his church. At the close of the sermon we met a number of people from nearly all the old states, who now live in Greenville. The crop prospect in Texas are spotted. In some sections corn and cotton are fine and in a few miles it will take three or four acres to make a bale of cotton. They are not counting much on the top crop. The cotton in the Mississippi bot¬ toms seemed very fine when we passed through. At Birmingham the immense iron furnaces were melting the iron and running it into pig at a great rate. We also passed through Vicksburg, Miss., where the old soldiers fasted as did John in the wilderness. We hope to return in a few days to that grand little city of Toccoa, where rivers of sunshine and pleasure flow Yours truly, C. L. Mize. The presbyterians are preparing their church, putting on a new roof and re-painting the build ng. When completed it will be one of the pret tiest churches in the city. ou Know What You are Taking When yon take Grove’# Tasteless Chill Tome because the formula is plainly p rint- ed on every bottle showing that it is simnly I on and Quinine in a tasteless form.
