“r. D S. Glenn Writes a
OBS
Newsg Letter.
(MNOLER WILL GARRY
The County of Wilcox. The
Gress Lumber Co.
Kramer, Ga., May 26 —Edit>-
or Courier: Having a little
leisure time at my coin maud, I
thought I would write a few lines
for your valuable paper from
this section of the state.
The weather is very dry down
here; we are needing rain bad
ly, crops are suffering and gar
den truck is burning up.
The Gress Lumber Co., is do
ing a large business at present
They are considerably behind
with orders and the mill is being
run to its full capacity.
The postmaster received a
postal card yesterday from Eng
land addressed to ‘‘Lord Beres
ford/’ on the .opposite side it
contained this short message :
“Are you still alive?” It was
not iigned but bore a mysterious
mark. a t the bottom it says:
* P. M., If he is not there please
forward to his last address. ”
Tie postmaster sent it to City
of Mexico, as that was the last
place he was heard from.
Col. and Mrs. G. V. Gress left
today for Atlanta, where they
will reside during the summer.
Mr. Morgan Gress is now lo
cated in New York. He is run
ning the office of the Duplex
Phonograph Co., of which Mr.
G. V. Gress is president.
War is all the talk down here
now. Politics is seldom men
tioned, but Col. Gaudier will
carry this (Wilcox) county by a
good majority.
Yours faithfully,
D, S. Glenn.

ly lost by other methods, so it can readily be seen what enormous
profits we will earn in the fabulously rich gold mines of the Klondike
