Pinecliff Dots.
August 4th, '04.
Here I am again, but not with
much news.
The Sunday School was rained
out Sunday p. m.
Mr. Walter Blount, of Tampa,
Fla., came up Tuesday to visit
relatives at Pinecliff.
Mr. B. R. Collins, of Bain
bridge, Ga., and Mr. Rufus Beck,
of Cami'la, are visiting friends
and relatives in this section this
week, and are enjoying fishing.
Mr. Editor, in Pinecliff Dots
last week the types made us say
that it was Mt. instead of Mrs.
Tom Kirbo that died.
Aunt Jane has read letters where
the writer would say something
perhaps to hurt someone’s feel¬
ings, and when next they would
write they would make apologies
for it. Aunt Jane doesn’t do any¬
thing like that. In the first place
she is not going to write anything
to hurt anyone’s feelings, if she
knows it, but if she does, all she
has to say is that the offended
must only grunt and endure it.
How did you readers like the
piece, “Gems of Thought, from
the Home Circle column of the
Sparta Ishmaelite?” I think|t is
a grand piece. The writer must
have known something of life,
don’t you think?
The above was intended for
last week’s issue.—Ed.
August 9th, ’04.
