Invariably In advance.
It has been a trying time on
babies, old men, and potatoes.
We see that the Rome Courier has
been sold by “Bob L. Pickard.”
It is a bad time of the year to
fall out with a place. No chance
to shale its dual off your feet.
We regret to learn that Mrs. J.
Mercer Shaw died of pneumonia on
Thursday Jan., 27.
John Jackson has put the finish
ing touches on an excellent fence
just East of our sanctum.
If the clergymen of the different
denominations will send in their
regular and occasional appointments
we shall be glad to publish them.
On the econd Sabbath of Janu
ary, Mr. A. C. Camp was invited by
Chattooga church to supply the
pulpit for the balance of the year.
We learn that John Campbell
and J. T. Love will start a distillery
near the Cooper Gap in the Lower
Cove. They don’t propose to run
by moonshine.
Since the mail has been placed
in colored hands, it has been coming
through promptly and regularly.
It got wet on one occasion. That
they should guard against.
The 6mi’ing time for landlords is
coming. This has no allusion what
ever to the wet and dry facilities of
the town, but it does mean that a
little courting is going to he done.
There is no livelier, wittier paper
gotten up on Georgia soil than the
Atlanta Phonograph. We are glad
to see that it has blossomed into a
daily. May it continue to bloom.
We are glad to be able to number
Logan among the correspondents of
the Messenger. He needs no intro
duction to its readers. You will
always find him pleasant and
always entertaining.
The side walks in the upper end
of town, until you get half a mile
from the Court House, are under
the care of the marshal. They
are free to all who are willing to
pay a dollar for riding on them.
The Hamilton House, of Chatta
nooga, comes to the front this week
See its card. We have stopped
there, and found the officials of the
house clever, accommodating and
reasonable in their charges. Try
it.
Mr. Jacob Green, formerly of
Walker, now of Dade, spent Friday
night in town. He was on his way
home from Walton, where he had
been with a drove of mules. He
is level headed, and good company.
We glad to say that he is on our
muster roll.
We are sorry that Gus McCutchen
has found this a thorny world. The
next time he has anything to do
with a Locust stick of wood, he
will say:
“Take her up tenderly,
Lift lier with care.”
He is better, and— wiser.
Fines are still the ordpr of the
day. The other evening Mr. Mae.
paid his respects to the representa
tive of the government in the per
son of the mail rider. The same
old story—sidewalk business. But
we hope that fines will be reduced
to such a fine point, that there won’t
be any fines.
We are glad to be able to say
that Mr. L R McWhorter has gained
his case against the W. & A. rail
road. It was tried last week and
the jury found a verdict of 85,000
for the plaintiff. The defendant
was about to move for a new trial,
which it was believed would be
granted, and the case was compro
mised for 83,500. His recovery from
the injuries received is remarkable,
but Lem is a sound man in more
sen bps than one. Messrs. Phelan &
Goree engineered the case success
fully through.
We wish to call attention to the
fact that in the School Commission
er’s report in our issue of January
20th, the mistake was made in the
Rock Spring District, of giving to
Mr. John L. Hunt the amount re
ceived by Miss C. A. Rosser, 567.51.
Mr. Hunt received 818.34. ihe
name of Miss Bettie Edwards, who
received 827.20, was omi‘ted and
Cane Creek District was taken up
bodily and tacked on to Crawfish,
which was very bad treatment. Give
us a little time to learn to spell that
pleasant, but hard word—duty.
We have changed Mr. James T.
Harrison’s address from Crawfish
Spring to Waldron Ark. He may
not understand knitting, hul when
it comes to handling yarns-ho is at
home. May he prosper.
- tm
We hope that all needing pencil ;
trees will give Mr. John Jones a ’
call. He is clever, understands his i
business, guarantees his varieties
true to name, and offers them
much lower than tho northern nur
series. See card.
With this week, the old reliable
Rome Tri Weekly Courier becomes
multiplied and changed into a
daily. It is in the best of business |
hands, and speaks well for the pros- :
perity of Rome. The Captain is a
good judge oi the business pulse, and j
as he is satisfied that a daily is j
demanded, he is ready to meet the !
want. And Harris, if he can’t he j
called Sorrell Top, may justly be
named the Admirable.
We sincerely hope that the Hon. i
Grand and Traverse Juries of our j
county will forgive us for making I
them in our last two issues a thing
of the past, when they are such an
important part of the very near fu
ture. Due allowance should be
made for the unusual condition es j
the atmosphere. To show you how i
careful others have to be, Col. W. j
Glenn, who has heretofore been j
willing to risk the slippery clay, j
has had a snug little platlorm put
at the bottom of his steps, so that
no matter how unsteady a man’s
knees may he, he can land in safety
Married; Sunday Jan., SOtii at j
the residence of tho brides’ father, j
Mr. Lecil Day, by the Rev. J. C. i
Camp, Thos Allman of Chattooga to I
Miss Emma Day. It looks as ifj
mother Shipton’s prophecy that j
the world would come to an end j
in 1881 was about to come true, j
There is only one more Day left. |
Some small artillery had been im- j
ported from Chattanooga to be used j
in honor of the occasion. But in
stead of being brass pieces they j
were made of tin. They were used j
between midnight and day, and :
with effect, for a ’possum was found j
dead oi. the field, labeled “For the 1
Groom.” After the battle, the ar- j
tillery men instead of being saluted
as heroes were told that dry catile I
would have to go to the mountain
and eat grass, for shucks had ployed j
out.
Obituary.
To the memory of Mrs. Mary
Shaw, wifo of J. M. Shaw. She
departed this life January 27th,
after an illness of nearly two weeks:
(pneumonia), aged 49 years, S mos.
and 10 days. Mrs. Shaw’s entire
life has been that of morality, but
in the year 1866, she made a pro
fession of the religion of Jesus.
Since that time, she has borne the
image of her Master, trying to com
fort those around her and lead them
the Lamb of God, that takelh
away the sin of the world. She
was a devoted companion and an
affectionate mother. She was kind
to all around her, and those who
knew her best loved her most,
leaving many friends and loved
ones to mourn her loss. She has
gone to take her abode with the re
deemed that have gone before. May
the same hand that lias guided her
through this life and across the
Jordan of death, guide her beioved
husband, and her affectionate
children to the shore of eternal
happiness. Written by her pastor.
During the cold snap we spent
a night and part of a day in Sum
merville. It gave us a cold recep
tion; but that was Ihe fault of the
night and not of the people. It
was on Thursday when frozen bed
quilts and other cold luxuries were
the order of the day; when the j
Ihermometer was showing us what
12 from nothing means. We found 1
it a live little town. It is the busi
ness center of one of the best coun
ties in the State, a county pop dated
by a liberal, progressive, energetic
people. That reliable enumerator
Wtn. Moore gave us the population
of the town as 337. We bad the
pleasure of meeting two of its old
stagers in a business sense. Cnpt.
J. S. Cleghorn and Mr. Thompson
Hiles now of Rome. Betwen them
they haye sold vibout two hundred
buggies und wagons.
There have been many improve
ments within the last year and
many are proposed for the present.
On Main street, Dr. Calhoun has
added a verandah to his house. Mr
G. J. Moyers has built a most com
fortable residece. Mr. J. W. I’itts
a store, Mr. Hiles the saloon oc
cupied by Capt. W. D. Kellett
Mr. John A. Starling the store
where Mr. Smith (urns out harness, j
and a little back of the street the j
Town Council have put tip a build- j
ing where free lodging and hard
fare are given to stray guests. At

CORRESPONDENCE.
WALKER com
Rock Spring,— Quite a change
since our last writing; the weather
| has been line for a few days.
Farmers are beginning to "do
I about” lively. I dont remember
j of ever seeing less done at Ibis time
j of tho year towards a ciop.
Several Farmers near hero did
Well raising cotton last year, and
ihe “cotton fever” is higher this
year than last. There will ho a
i great deal planted this season,
j Cnattanooga is now a cotton
I market, which will be a great con
venience to us. Several hales have
] passed lately going there.
Our “county seat” is certainly
on the rise, as it seems to wai t
! evey body to “plum” the track,
j Hurrah! for La Fayette. Do away
| with your whiskey and let us all
ido right. Two young men passed
here last week from La Fayette
“reefing'to and fro.”
The health our community very
good except colds, quite a number
j of them.
A Miss Loyd over at Mr. Loyd’s.
Wash Meeks was in “our burg”
| last week. His arm that was broke
some time ago is improving slowly;
he sends the Messenger to his
son in Arkansas.
Our townsman, J. Deck and
family were grieved to hear of the
death of Mrs. Stevens, better
j known in our section as Stiss Addie
! Anderson, of I’.ialo Kansas, who
! visited them and other relatives in
j North Georgia three yearsago.
Tolerable.
Duck Creek.— A common ex
i pression is “how much the Mes
j sender is improved,” and the many
| subscribers at this place seem to
j welcome it into the home circle,
j not only as a visitor that is highly
j appreciated for its social entertain
; ment, but as one noted for its knowl
| edge and intelligence.
We were mistaken two weeks
! ago when we said there were four
| new organs in Wilson. There are
j only three, but we have two pianos
and a well organized string band,
i so you see we are well enough off
as to music. Dr. Underwood and
Mr. Hammond have new organs
f just over in Chattooga.
Mr. J. S. Jackson’s team ran
away with him Friday evening
while on his way home from Trion
Factory, but did no damage.
S. P. Tomlinson has a good live
ly school at Henry Spring School
House—twenty students in atten
dance.
We see a good many tenant
houses building, and we think a
large Grop ot cotton will be planted
this season.
We like the Messenger, and
think that every citizen of Walker
should support it on account of its
merits. Roscius.
Fricks Gap, January 30tn—Rev.
Wm. Shaw is still very ailing.; le
had a severe pain at liis heart last
week, and can’t talk muclPyet. His
brother, Mercer Shaw lost his wife
last Thursday. She left ten childern,
six of them grown and four small
ones to grieve and look and listen
for her voice and footsteps. But
alas! they will never more know a
mother’s love.
Mr. Jas Graham lias landed in
our settlement from Texas. He is
going to make Georgia his home.
Mr. E. W. Phillips’s school closed
out with souio good specimens of
penmanship and fancy music.

CHATTOOGA COUNTY.
Summerville, Ga. —News is as
’ scarce here as fiddlers are in the
; better country. Nothing has trans
pired worthy of report since my
last communication to you.
Our town is rather on a boom
just now, several new buildings
going up and a number of others
i to be commsnced soon, both dwell
; ings and business houses. I think
| our village will continue in growth
until it reaches the magnitude of a
city yet, from present indications.
W*» have an abundance of unoccu
pied space, and all we like is capi
tal, population, and more dwell
ings. We need a rail road too, but
I presume such a thing is hardly
pr bably just now.
The weather has been very cold
and disagreeable, and the roads
fearfully bad.
the mails on the different routs
have been detained frequently on
nceount of swolen streams; hence,
our communication with-the out
side world has been limited. Some
cotton in tide country, yet to he
picked, owing to had weather.
I notice with pleasure your suc
cess in getting up a lively paper, 1
think the paper is quite entertain
