Actual Circulation 1200 Copies. To Our Patrons. 'Since the middle of July my health has been such as to render me utterly unable to keep up the regular publica¬ tion of The Jimplecute, much to my regret and finan¬ cial loss. However, I now feel safe in promising the patrons of the paper that it will appear regularly hereafter and I earnestly trust; that each of you will look upon the sus¬ pension the last two months from a liberal standpoint, and that this unavoidable discrep¬ ancy has in no way impaired your loyal support and gener¬ ous interest in our efforts to furnish the people of Murray county a clean sheet filled with live local news and pure reading matter at all times. Respectfully, J. C. Heartjsell. In Memoriam. On the 14th day of August, the patient spirit of Mrs. Julia E. Jones bade farewell to its frail tenement of clay and took its flight to the abode of the Father who gave it. For more than half a century she had been upon a be 1 of afflic¬ tion but, with the comforts possible to give by a thought¬ ful husband and. iindulgent friends, she bore the racking pains and tormenting incon¬ veniences of enforced confine ment with the philosophy of a stoic and the fortitude of the true Christian that she was. When the casket was borne from the hearse to its narrow place in the cemetery on the hill not one of the large throng of sorrowing friends present but dropped a tear of genuine pity for the gray-haired con¬ sort weeping at her bier, A FRIEND. Many personal items have been crowded out of this issue by the court proceedings. HERE’S SOMETHING WORTH READING. Prepared Especially for the Jimplecute’s Appreciated Friends. At a conference of the Bap¬ tist church membership here Sunday Rev. J. P. Stokes was chosen to serve that denofni nation as pastor for next year. At their regular meeting here Roads Tuesday the Board of and Revenues levied a tax of 45 cents pei $100 for county and 10 cents per $100 for road purposes. These amounts combined with the State tax make a net levy of $1.10 per $100. Drs. Gordon and McAffee . came over from Dalton last Thursday and met in consul¬ tation with Dr. J. B. Hughes in the case of J. L. McHan’s young son, who is suffering from blood poison, or some similar complaint. They cut an incision in his abdomen from which a large quantity of pus was taken, and the pa¬ tient is apparently ranch im¬ proved since the operation To my customers : 1 have moved into the store vacated by the posoffice and, having increased my stock, am better prepared to serve you than ever.
