In the death of Mr. 11. 11. Holmes,
which occurred several weeks since
Bartow county lost one of her best
citizens. Mr. Holmes has been a
resident of Cassville community
for about forty years and was liked
by every one who knew him. He
was a consistent member of the
Presbyterian church and lived a
life that tells us that he is in heaven.
The writer knew him personally
for fourteen years and always found
him to be an honest, upright Chris
tian gentlemen in all the walks of
life. He left a wife, a large number

Horseback riding is becoming a
popular pastime with our young
ladies. Two of our bewitching
damsels started to church a couple
of weeks since, riding horse( ?)back.
They were in somewhat of a
hurry and one of them did not
buckle the “belt” securely, and
before they had proceeded very far
the saddle was overbalanced and
down she came, but was active
enough to light on her feet. Her
companion thought that the fault
was witli the rider and not the sad
dle; so they exchanged horses (?).
In a short while they both had met
the same fate. They are courage
ous as well as pretty and have been
riding siuce and we are glad to
know that the “belt” was O. K. this
time.
The cotton crop is short in this
