A pleilSant entertainment was given at
the Thornton Honse last Monday bight,
but owning to its not being generally
known, together with the foul weather
ft was not very largely attended.
J. J. Beck anti wife visited Edison
Wednesday. The Judge did not tell us
the occasion of the visit, but we have no
doubt but that the good people of the
Fourth caused their vist a pleasant one.
A certain “Pet” of Morgan went visit¬
ing recently; the Monitor followed as
per request, the receipt of which was
duly xecogmzed—and that’s all.
Some people cuss because their name
will occasionally appear in the local
paper, but a greater number “cuss” be¬
cause they are overlooked. No country
editor is infallible.

companied by Mr. J. S. Cowart of Ar¬
lington. He Insisted that all his cases
be postponed, but failed to convince the
Court that a continuance was necessary,
Court adjourned at *2 o’clock p. m. for
the term.
Leary
Of to-day is somewhat different from the
Leary of seven years ago.
I am a constant reader of the Monitor
and, with but one exception, have seen
nothing from our sister town. Thinking
this not exA‘otly fair I paid Leary a visit
Saturday to see what was up.
For years I have had good friends iu
Leary, and I certainly enjoyed meetiug
a few of them again.
The town has imprCYed wonderfully
since my last visit.
Capt. P. E. Boyd, Leary’s best friend,
gave me a hearty hand-shake, a friendly
pat on the shoulder and kindly told me
the Monitor had a friend in him. Clever
Keel, Drs. Griffin and Terry, A. J.
Dixon and a score of other good-hearted
gentlemen gave me encouragement to
hustle. Thanks, gentlemen; I know the
paper appreciates your kindness, and if
you will help a little it will pull for
L ea ry’s interests first, last and always.
Mr. A. J. Dixon was elected a member
of the town cOim’cil, last Friday, to fill
the vacancy caused by the resignation of
Dr. Terry. Mr. Dixon told me that the
boys elected him against his wishes, but
reckoned he would serve. The council
will meet on the first Monday in March
and elect a marshal, wno will receive a
salary of $300 per year.
I left at 10 o’clock a. m., and the mer¬
chants were then busy. Leary is doing
a good business and prospering in every
way. The town has the best wishes of
Fitzdoodle,
Mittford Iii Line.
Mr. Editor : Believing that you
would like a few dots from Millford,
Baker, county, I will try to keep e
Monitor posted.
Millford is situated on the banks of the
Itchawaynotcbaway (swamp of deer)
cr ek on a high hill, perfectly healthy
and always stirring.
Mr. Raburn owns a fine mill in town,
and ready at any time to accommodate
bis customers; and if you strike him at
the right time you will get a mess of as
fine fish as G’eCi'giA waters afford. He ik
also J, P. for the district, and will dis¬
pense ju^'ie to all who may be in need
of that article.
^Clever Ben Askew is the leading mer¬
chant, always ready to help the town and
himself.
The post office is kept by oiie 'of CM
Baker's intelligent daughters, Miss Cora
Adams. She is obling to all, and, I am
glad to say, a fast friend of your paper.
On our streets this week I noticed
Capt, B. E. Russell, who makes his
home part of the time here, and Will
help a friend when he can; alsoJudgb
Wilburn, who will, at all times, shake
hands with everyone, both friend^ and
foe, and bid them God speed—a true
hearted Christian gentleman.
When you Visit Millford ask for either
Spurlin or Jones. They are doing a
nice business here, ready alid willing to
make you feel at home while in town.
I learn that the first quarterly meet¬
ing of the Leary circuit will meet at
Millford next Saturday. All who attend
will meet with a hearty welcome and be
nicely entertained.

May God bless the ministers and the
press.
Mr. Hefirjf Turner of the Edison dis¬
trict paid Morgan a short visit last Mon¬
