RIDLEYS AT HOT SPRINGS
Hot Springs, Ark., June 12.—Dear Ga
zette nnd readers—While away from home
some 700 miles, of course I am thinking
of my old friends in Tifton and Tift
county, many of whom asked me to
write them and if permitted would like
to use your valuable columns.
We left Tifton Sunday night, June 9, on
the Seminole and arrived at Hot Springs;
Tuesday night, June 11. Owing to onej
wreck and one washout we were delayed
some 12 hours. My wife stood the trip
very well ami took her first bath June 12. j
We nrc stopping nt the Ohio House, own
ed nnd operated by I)r. W. G. Bailey and
his good lady. I will never be able to
words sufficient to express gratitude;
for her kindness. ;
Arkansas is a wonderful state, especial-1
ly Hot Springs. The city lies between 1
two mountains whose beauty is indes-j
cribable. Tbe waters of the springs are
hot sure enough. There are people here
from Maine to Mexico,, in all conditions,
taking baths for their various maladies.
Every train brings more. We find peo
ple of all nationalities here—German,
French, Canadinas, Indians, Italians,etc.
Our trip has been a very agreeable one.
We feel under many obligations to our
many friends at home for kindness shown,
especially Mr. W. Burch, who carried us
to Tifton.
The scenery on the way here is very
interesting, the which I will tell the folks
about in the next 3 or 4 weeks, if they
would like to hear about it
