You are ad acquainted with onr quiet little place called Bayard and I will take the liberty to inform the much apprecia¬ ted Journal a few of its happenings. We are having a nice rain at present. Miss Maggie Ely, in 00 npany with her aunt, Mrs J H Lynch, left for Atlanta Thursday. Their many friends wish them a pleasant visit. Miss Ida Beach, of Kingsboro, was the guest of Miss Pattio McGregor Saturday night. Mules must be scarce near Hamilton,as Messrs Will Boyd and John Baldwin came to the singing both on one mule. A good way to save baggies, young men, but we don’t think you made any mashes—only on the mule. Our annual staging came off last Sun¬ day The day v:as spent qnite pleasants ly Ihere was a large congregation and dinner in abundance. Mrs A McLeroy has some of the oldest fabrics we ever heard of. She has a ta¬ ble that was made before nails were in vented. She also has a dress that was her mother’s great-grandmother’s, It is a good deal over two hundred years old. She will show tbem to any one wishing to see them. Tbey are quite a curiosity. There was a sad burial at Harmony ehurch cemetery the 17th. It was Mr. Taylor Ham’s little daughter, tged 15 montbp, of Columbus. We extend to the broken hearted family our heartfelt sym¬ pathy. There was a stranger called at^,Mr Jack Cordrid’s Monday. No telling how long the little thing will stay. Its visit is verj much appreciated by the family. I do not know wbat one of onr young ladies will do now. She did’nt have but one Sunday hat and she carelessly laid it on a chair. And a pet dog cache along, picked it up, oarried it out doors and tore it iuto pieces. Such is life in the piney woods. We hear that some of our Oataula friends had to whip thf’r children to keep them from going to onr nice exhibition at Olive Branch and then let them go to Thorn¬ ton’s. We reckon he is not aware that T’s was in the piney wooes, too. I hope these notes are not too piney woodsy to be pnblished; if so, I will not call again; if not, I will come again when needed.
