TURIN.
The writer was engaged the greater
part of last week conducting the an
nual meeting at Pleasant Hill church,
in which he was assisted by Rev. Mitt
Jones, who did some good preaching.
Rev. Boza Williams preached a splen
did sermon on Saturday night of the
meeting. There were three additions
to the church. On Saturday of the
meeting the families of Roht. Connor
and John Neill held a reunion, having
with them a number of friends, who
greatly enjoyed the fine barbecued
meats and other palatables.
We spent Saturday at the annual
meeting at Ebenezer, and had the
pleasure of dining with Judge Harper
and his interesting family.
We deeply sympathize with Bro. John
L. Morris, of St. Charles, in the loss
of 'his beloved companion. We often
shared the hospitality of this worthy
couple, and know that a good wife and
mother has gone to her reward. May
God bless and comfort the stricken
family.
We learn that Mrs. R. II. Wood, of

ing is now in j rogress at the Metho
dist church, with Rev. Mr. Turner, of

The corn and cotton crops in this sec
tion are the poorest known in years.
Not enough corn will be made to last
until March, and if farmers fail to sow
extensively of small grain next fall
they will be in a bad plight another
year.
The system of road-working em
ployed in this county is not giving sat
isfaction to the tax-payers. Why put
all the work on one or two roads, and
neglect others?

Our Buggies are Better
When a man has made up his mind to buy a vehicle, he always likes
plenty to choose from. That’s human nature.
Our customers know the grade of work we handle, and when a stranger
comes in and says, “I want a buggy like you sold Mr. Sims,” we know the rest—
our work has advertised itself. Unless he had realized its superiority, he would
not have called.
