Edwin Buker was recovering
from lung fever.
Mrs. L. Sperbeck received the sad intelligence of the
death of her sister at Spirit Lake, Iowa.
Acting City Marshal Dingley
resigned on Saturday and F.M. Carter was appointed.
Dave Shanks caught
nine coons, four on Monday and five on Tuesday.
Cheap John left Saturday
with his goods and chattels for Athens.
"Baby Mine" is the loving ditty
that Claude Carter sang himself to sleep with on the balmy evenings, and said to
one and all, "go 'way trouble, I'm all right.
George Ludington, thinking
they did not have anything to eat in Greenwood, and who was afraid he would get
hungry Saturday night, brought his lunch, in the shape of fried cakes strung
upon a string, with him, but when he saw the tables spread and groaning under
their mighty weight, he succumbed and gave the whole thing away. He presented
the friend cakes to Mrs. Henry Johnson as a memento, who thought seriously of
sending them to the World's Fair.
