JVE. WTLLIINrGrHAM, Manager. ROUND ABOUT IN BARTOW. Various Happenings in the Sever al Neighborhoods Noted Carefully and Tersely for Courant American Rea<lerg by Our Übiq uitous Reporters. MeCSUIKE’S CKO* SING. Mr. I*. V. Hollingshead who has been so seriously ill, we are glad to say is able to be up. Mi'. McGuire’s addition to his residence is nearing completion; then look out — at the windows, Mrs. Georgia Dobbs was up to see her parents. Mr and Mrs. Jefferson last Tuesday. It was our good fortune on last Sat urday to be one of a select few who at tended the fourteenth birthday dinner of Miss Addie Chitwood at. her father's residence in Emerson. To say that all enjoyed themselves to their utmost capacity gives no idea of the sumptuous banquent and pleasure of the occasion, May she live to celebrate many birth days provided we are present to enjoy the good eating. A certain young lady in our vicinity received a note from her fellow that baffled the “school master.” The fellow had to be sent for, to decipher it. Sowing wheat is now the order of the day with us. Cotton picking about over, Sonic late pickers will have to be gone over again, Our reading club will meet at Mr. C. S. Park’s residence in Parkdale next Fri day night, Mome, Ai>A IKSYILLK. Mr. Jno. Martin, now of Chattanooga, has been to see us. The many friends of our young M. D., J. P Bowdoin, will be pleased to know the evidence of his prosperity in the At lanta Medical College, by his election in that institute to thechair of valedictorian for the fall session. Mi*s. Sarah Veach, who has been the guest of St. Louis for the summer, spends some time with her sister, Mrs. J. M, Veach. The railroad authorities have lengthen ed the platform of the depot, neglecting the interior, which commands the atten tion of those without any taste, as being in a bad way and is anything but a card for the Kennesaw Route. As good an almanac for the approach ing Xmas is to see our good friend (who is deprived of his eyesight) at George Heeds store, who has a full stock of every thing nice. Besides the latest imported fireworks, some that will blow an “es teemed contemporary” into the Kingdom come, and then solace him with a box of Angel food which the said lteed sells. tVho does not remember Mr. A. T. Liv ington? our good friend who use and to as sociate among us, now numbered among the dead. Mr. Livingston left us last year, moving among his relatives in Western North Carolina where he thought thechangemight benefit a constitutional disease, but this latitude had no effect upon his system. He gradually grew worse, suffering agonies until death re lieved him at 4 o’clock, Oct. 6th, being in his 70th year. We bow in recognition over the loss of our reverend friend, who childlike in disposition, moved among us in a quiet way and left us rrith naught against him. Adairsville offers a flower that we may place it upon the resting place of this gentleman and patriotic citizen as our testimony of respect and reverence. We don’t know whether this immediate section is blest with a musical talent or not,-but our town,is blowing her own horn without any other’s mouthpiece. Our mayorfrom the highest pinnacle gave a certain signal, and such a meeting at the town hall was never seen before. This gathering of brains and money was to see what this burg could do towards in ducing the el. (t. Ryals school to stop rightjhere. At this meeting stock bidding went uncontrolled, generosity knew no bounds until $6,,500 was down in black and white, then the lateness of the; hour prevented a futherance. The bal ance will be made up this week. Besides this cash subscription, we give as much hind as the school wishes, dirt that would t fertilize any other soil outside of here. We are more than anxious to have the Ityals school, and with its co-operation promise our full support. At the last meeting of our citizens, the following committee were appointed to confer with the officers of the Middle Cherokee Asso ciation which meets at Calhoun, Ga., Oct. 20th: Col. Jno. W. Gray, Rev. M. I*. (Jain Messrs. E, B. Earle, I). B. Mull, Dr. J. \V. Bradley, J AI. Given, B. F. Bibb, J, P. Dyar, R. D. Combs and T. |E. McCalluui. Redman. EMERSON. Mrs. Bodwell is visiting friends in Marietta, H. V. Jones is quite sick, hope he will soon be convalescing. The Emerson hotel will be opened on next Friday by Air. Markham, of Talla poosa. Miss Ella Barber left last Monday for her home in Milwaukee. She made many friends while with us, and we hope to have her return again and become one of our citizens. Capt. Byers has returned from a visit to Columbus, 0. He reports that quite a number of Ohians contemplate visiting our section at an early date. The maleable iron plant will commence vvorh this week. Mrs. J. I’. Stegall will leave this week on a visit t>ofriends and relatives in East Tennessee. Capt. John Chatelin is on a visit to his home in Indiana. Several young men and young ladies of your town spent Sunday afternoon at Mr. J. P. Stegalls, Sigma. cash Station. Rev, Mr. White preached here Sunday evening to a good congregation. His sermon was a good one, certainly. Text: John 3:6. One of the very best sermons that we ever heard was the oue that Bro. White preached at Cassville Sunday morning. His subject was the develop ment of Christian character, and it was undoubtedly the best sermon on that subject that we ever listened to. We shall all be very glad if Bro. White is re turned to Kingston circuit. Rev. 11. F. Taylor filled his appoint ment at Cohutta, Whitfield county, Sun day. Gus Quillian visited relatives at Cass Sunday. Lee Garwood was here also. Rev. J, M. White spent Friday at Mr. Quillian’s. Last Thursday night your correspon dent, in company with a select crowd, went ’possum hunting. It would not take the dogs long to “tree,” but they would generally be a quarter of a mile from us. The fun would be supreme when the crowd started off in a go-as you please race for the dogs down an almost perpendicular descent, sometimes it being several hundred yards to the foot of a hill. Charley Wheeler, and probably one other, were the only ones who maintained then-equilibrium. ‘‘Col.” Quillian would get astraddle a sapling and go straight down into the darkness below-, balancing himself with his short legs. Others would tumble over logs, ride bushes, pick themselves up in brush heaps, and then finally get there all the same. We spent the night in the busi ness and canglit five opossums. I can truthfully say that Charley Wheeler’s dog is the best ’possum dog in this com munity; that we all enjoyed ourselves immensely; that we all had “invites” but one poor fellow, and he “guessed it was an oversight.” Miss Carrie Hoss is spending the week in Cartersville. Mis. Wilson, who has been spending some time with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. \V. X. McKelvy, has returned to Chat tanooga. I was at Cassville, as usual, Sunday aud thought I would spot “Sam Sly” and give him a fraternal shake of the hand; but everybody I accosted seqmed to know nothing about him. It seemed as if there were others who were equally as anxious as I to locate him; and after a number had done their level best searching diligently he couldn’t be “spotted.” Curiosity is on tiptoe, and several Gassvillians have told me that there wasn’t a single person in town that could tell anything whatever about him, and they asked me to earnestly urge him to disclose himself, and let au anxious populace know who he is. “Sam,” you can’t hold out at this long; we are bound to have you; we are going R.W.

CASSVILLE. Pretty weather this week and crops are being gathered fast. Bro, White filled his appointment here Sunday, and preached a grand sermon to a large congregation. Four new members were received into the church after preaching. The ' the sacrament of the Lord’s supper was administered. Rev. Mr. Allday and lady are at Dr. Griffin’s. The doctor’s father, from Gor don county, has been with him for sev eral weeks. Miss Lena Brookshire visited relatives here during the past, week. We have two Sunday Schools at Cass ville. Roth are in good condition. We wish them both success. We won't say which one is graced by our presence each Sunday morning. A number of our boys are dead in love with their sweethearts. Eugene loves a certain girl so hard that lie even looks love. There will be singing at the Baptist church Sunday evening. “Sara Sly” will be there, 1). V. Our prayer meeting is well attended, but not as well as it should be. Come (flit and hear good talks from Brethren Myers, Cliuun, Crawford and others. And then there’s the singing; it is one of the most enjoyablefeaiures. We think it necessary to make a few personal remarks. The question you hear in Cassville every day is, “Who is ‘Sam Sly?’ ” He is talked about around the fire side in the family circle, in the stores and shops he is the topie of con versation; crowds congregate on the street corners and “cuss” and discuss him, but all in vain; the more inquiries there are the deeper the mystery gets. I cau enlighten the anxious ones this much: “Sam Sly” is a human being. His father and mother were named Adam and Eve. “Redmond” has the gaudy style, Rut “Jackie” isn’t to blame; “Sam Sly” has no style at all, Rut he “gets there” just the same. Sam Sia, H A.JLL’S MILL* Pretty cold weather for baptizing, but IJev. C. E. Sugart put one under Sun day, after which he preached to a good congregation. The farmers are busy picking their* fleecy staple and turning land. We are sorry to say that Mrs. Ed wards had a stroke of paralysis last week, but is some better at this wFting. We hope for her a speedy recovery. Dame Rumor has it that we will have two marriages this winter. I am told that there are splendid indications of one especially, vii: The girl’s father has been borrowing a quilting frame to have a quilting, and the young mail’s brother was seen a few days ago driving up the geese to be picked, and there are other indications, but this is enough to con vince us. Your reporter had the pleasure of at tending a party at Mr. Beasley’s Friday night, gotten up by Misses Emma and Kate, as the first anniversary^of their father's marriage. We had a most de lightful time after we got there, but got lost on the way and wound around some time before finding our way out. Preaching next Sunday evening at three o’clock by Rev. J. M. White. Joe Barrett is doing splendid busi ness this fall ginning. Bon Bail. EORGIA—BARTOW COUNTY.—OR VIT dinary’s office, October 29th, 1888, At an election held in and for the 851 st district, G.
