A FINE PROSPECT.
The fruit crop of this county
is now well assured. It is hard
ly probable that we will have
any weather after thii that will
affect the crop. Peaches, ap
pies, cherries, pears and black
berries are abundant, and the
people should take steps to save
this fruit. We have felt (or
two years the loss of these im
portant crops, ami should begin
to prepare in advance to pre
serve them.
A canuiug factory would cer
tainly pay well. Nice fruits
can be preserved thut fiud an
extensive market for the next
twelve mouths.

THE EXPOSITION.
Messrs. L. M. Brand, J.M.
Jacobs and Oscar • Brown re
turned from Nashville Saturday
and are enthusiastic over the
centennial.
They went with the excursion
provided by the Seaboard Air
Line,which very liberally agreed
to take a delegation from each
town on the road to Nashville.
Mr. John T. Patrick, the in
dusttia! agent of the road, seems
to be a very live, energetic man,
and is devoting lus whole time
to improving the towns, en
couraging the furmcrs and beau
tifying the depots along the
line. His efforts have been
quite successful thus fur in
waking up the citizens along
the line, and he has* other
schemes which he will present
to the people.
Ile is very anxious that every
town should have a park, ar
ranged for tho convenience of
the 1 citizens and strangers who
may visit them from time to
time. lie thinks this will aid
in iuduciug immigration and
the influx of capital.
We will nreseut absolutely
free a new iM/i bieyolo (either
ladies’or gents’ wheel) in ex
change for a favor we wish at
tended to in Lawrencevitle, al
so another for attending to same
in adjoining townships. No
agency or solliug business. We
prefer those acquainted with
many young people now study

IMPROVING OUR TOWN
It is proposed that, we get up
an Improvement Club in Law
rencevillo for the • purpose of
beautifying our public grounds
fixing up a park for pubi c
amusements and such otic r
work as may be suggested from
time to time in which all oi r
citizens are interested.
This club is to be compose,!
of all of our citizens who own
real estate and who are inter
ested in enhancing its value.
A small contribution from
each of ten cents a we- k ju
diciously expended would add
much to the value of property
by making the town a desirable
place for strangers to visit and
invest. Nobody would miss the
small amount contributed ui d
yet we would have a good work
ing fund all the year around

Editor Herald: Will y< u
please print this for me, that
the people may know that the
report that J. T. O. Beard start
ed against me is false ?
As will be remembered, over
six years ago I had the misfort
une to get my hand shot wlii'e
cleaning a gun. J.T.O Ben’d
has become offended at on, ni ri
said that I was drunk ui-O i|.-il
was the cause of my hand b»*i g
shot. I say every word is false
I never had a drop of w hisky or
wine in me, neither did I have
any on my place. lie knows 1
was not drunk, but is saying
this us lie is mad with me
While there are other reports
he is using, I prefer to have
them investigated in a differ* ut
way from this
Here is what Dr. M. Richard
son of Norcross says es to the
condition I was in. Hire are
also affidavits from other Chris
tian gentlemen, and mine of
them are related to any of my
family.
Now. in conclusion, wh.it
kind of a spirit prompts a man
to say such things about any
one, when he knows it is not
true ?
Here are the affidavits from
some of my neighbors; please
print all of them.
Yours respectfully,
E. W. Flowers
| Accompanying this commu

which state that they sa.vAir.
Flowers in a short time utter lie
was shot, 'and that he was 11 -* f
drunk nor do they think he w: s
drinking at all. All the ullidu
vits, except ihat- of Dr. Ri h

Mr. Beard make tho charge re
ferred to above, and tlmt they
have known Mr. Flowers u num

Vants know what bus become
ot me and why I haven’t sent
the bachelors. We have two
reasons tor not sending tlnfhi.
in the first place, the Meudow
people requested us not to dump
*etu off on them. Said they
were standing around there as
thick an old slumps in an old
field, and of about as much sor
vice; and in aocoprf place the
rail toad company refuted t<>
haul them. 1 received your
rags Bro. Meadow but did not
make pants of them, they were
too badly worn for anything.
It is true I found a pair of old
home-made copperas breeches
that I have made a scare-cron
out of, and if I only had the
sender of those breeches }o put
them on, I would have the best
scare-crow in all this w ide, wide
world in my judgement. In or
der that Bro. Me adow may have
full value for his rags, 1 will
tend him an old setting hen and
some clucking dumplings guar
anteed to set well on his stom
ach.

some pot-hook plants, good va

For fear the Meadow corres
