Rheumatism.
More than nine out of eVe -y ten
cases of rheumatism are simply rheu
matism of the muscles, due to cold or
damp, or chronic rheumatism. Tn
such cases no internal treatment is
required. The free application of
Chamberlain’s Liniment is all that is
needed, and it is certain to give
quick relief. Give it at trial and see
for yourself how quickly it relieves
the pain and soreness. The medicines
usually given internally for rheuma
tism are poisonous or very strong
medicines. They are worse than use
les in cases of chronic and muscular
rheumatism. For sale by Summer

SEMINOLE
Mr. Huckaby died last Monday
and was buried at the Johnson
burying ground.
Mrs. Julia McCoy, formerly of
this place but who has been liv
ing near Euharlee, Ga., for the
last nine or ten years, died about
three weeks ago. She was about
72 years old and was the widow
of Frank McCoy, who died many
years ago. She had a hard time
raising her family, but she suc
ceeded and gave her three daugh
ters a fair education. Alary
Broom, the oldest and the wife
of J. F. Broom, now lives near
Euharlee. Janie, who is now de
ceased, married M. C. T. Mathis.
Florence, the youngest, married
a Baptist minister. The Rev.T.
Scott Johnston was a brother of
Mrs. McCoy, also J. P. Johnston,
both of whom move d from here
several years ago to Texas and
are both dead. Scott Johnston
was a brave and good soldier in
the 39th Ga. Regt. Co. 11.
The writer was in Summerville
last Saturday at an annual meet
ing of our eahip. Most of the
old soldiers are now getting a
pension. All will soon get one
who are not worth over fifteen
hundred dollars. 1 think all
should have a pension, not hav
ing any property clause in it. A
few more years will end all our
days here. And there will not
Jte any more old ex-confederate
soldiers here 1 expect that
Chattooga county furnished 800
or 1,000 soldiers for the war be
tween the states and I think
there were 25 or 30 present at
our meeting. Thirty nine have
paid their dues but I will venture
to say there are not more than
450 now living out of all that
left our country for the war.
There were five, I believe, of my
old Co. present, John 11. White.
John B. Clark, C. W. Crumby,
Ren Murdock and myself, though
there are several in Texas and oth
er places. I will name three
names who are entitled to pen
sions that have never received
any, Mrs. John W. Rutledge, Mrs.
Sarah Yancy and Mr. A. Drake.
There may be more that I do not
know of in our district. Mrs. C.
P. Clowdis has already applied
for a pension, but for some cause
the claim has never been allowed.
It looks like she would be enti
tled to draw a pension.
1 will say that all who feel in
terested will meet at the John
ston grave yard on the sth Sat
urday in May, the 29th, for the
purpose of cleaning off the
grounds of the cemetery. Bring
sufficient tools to do the work
with.
We are very wet here and but
little planted so far, corn and
cotton. Most of the cotton crop
this year will be planted in May.
We use to think May too late for
cotton, but we have learned that
it does about as well planted in
May tte in April. So with our
late planting and Texas so dry
that cotton will not come up, it
looks like the crop will be short.
If they could have some of the
rain in Texas that we are having
in Georgia and us a little of their
dry, sun shiny days we all might
make more. But I guess we will
make more than enough any way
to cut the price down. Though
eotton is advatfeing a little in
prices since it is nearly .all out
of the farmers hands. Well the
farmer has a hard time and hard
work, yet all must come from the.
farmer; if we succeed all others
who do not farm arc successful
and if we fail to make it all
other avocations fail. So it
seems to me that all should work
for the interests of the one main
thing, for all, and that is the faro
ers . G. A. RAGLAND.

THE SUMMERVILLE NEWS, T
DRY VALLEY
Editor News:—-
1 It was my pleasure to spend a
day recently at the pleasant and
hospitable home of Mr. and Mrs.
Thomas R.' Knox, of Broomtown
‘ valley, litre prosperity greets
your view on every side. A large
and commodious house, a broad
expanse of fertile land, on which
green fields of wheat and oats ar
’ seen in the distance. Mr. Knox
■ himself does not plant a seed of
■ eotton, but tievotes himself to
grain, grass and stock raising.
‘ His tenants raise some cotton. He
has one field of twenty a‘res in
■ grass. In this field can be seeig;
• a large herd of cattle of the Dura
I ham variety, several herd of fine
• mules and horses, colts, and val
-1 liable mares. He recently retus
> ed two hundred and fifteen dol
‘ lars for one young mule. He has
1 one old mare, nearly thirty years
1 old. This mare lias raised him
1 about twenty-eight hundred dol
lars worth of stock. She is now
‘ feeble. She is kept in a pasture
' to herself, through which flows
- the crystal waters of Teloga
1 creek. Mr. Knox has retired
’ this mare to private life. He is
1 trying to make her last days her
1 best days, for the great service
‘ she has rendered him. H e does
1 not allow her to be worked, rid
den or driven and when she dies
1 he said he was going to have her
’ buried and a tombstone placed
1 at her grave.
1 Mr. Knox’s hogs are of the
Bill more-Berkshire kind. He
■ has one large male and when fu 1 -
ly grown will easily weigh eight
hundred pounds. He sells his
’ pigs at ten dollars each. Mr.
1 Knox is now preparing to go ex
tensively into sheep husbandry.
To give you an idea Low this
rich, deep, red mulatto land sell;
■ in Broomtown valley, .Mr. Knox
has been offered one thousand
dollars for one twenty acre field.
Mr. Knox’s residence stands
not f'r from old Teloga spring.
This spring of clear, cold water
makes a creek itself and was nam
ed after the famous old Indian
Chief, Teloga, who lived in a
house about one hundred yards
west of the Knox residence,
which has long since disappeared.
' t hies Teloga was killed between
his home and Lafayette. When
this country was in its primeval
forest the road which was made
by th’ Indians was said to run
on an air line from the spring on
the Napiei farm, in Walker coun
ty, right by Teloga’s house to
the Samuel 11. Knox residence,
■ in Broomtown valley, near Menlo
The last traces of the Indians
that once lived in our country
are almost lost in oblivion and
1 only live in history. The names
1 of some of our creeks, rivers and
' mountains carry their names.
Coosa, Coosawattee, Connasauga,
Oostanaula, Etowah and many
others throughout the state. Tay
lor’s ridge was named after an
old Chief named Dick Taylor,
Dick’s ridge, in West Armuehee,
was named for his given name.
How many of your readers
know that’ our worthy citizen,
Capt. John W. Rivers, was the
first white boy born in Chattoo
ga county. Also that Mrs. R. A.
Patrick of Dirttown valley was
the first white girl born in this
county. Both are now living and
are crowned with many years of
honest industry.

Now and then you can here some
one say something about who will
be the man for congress. There
is no use of beginning so early,
we people over here aim to send

body get in that notion. He is a
good, competent man. We have
tried him for solicitor and tor
judge and know that he has fill
ed these offices to complete sat
isfaction. So let us send him to
congress where he will have a
chance to show his ability to do
good for all the people.
