Prof. W. L. Gilbert opened school at this place last Monday with 33 pupils.

Considering the inclemency of the weather

we think 33 is a good opening. Mr Arthur Stinchcomb and wife

have moved from their former home in Shakerag to the place where Mr Berry  lived near Fayetteville. We are glad to have

them as neighbors again.

 

The Adams Comedy Company, a traveling troop, headed by Capt. C. L. Adams, of the Texas Rangers, CSA, aged

76, and who carries a cross of honor as a UCV is in town for a performance tonight at institute hall. He was Capt. of the Texas rangers at the age of 34, and served through the Confederate War. He is now active and remarkably stout for a man  76 years old.

 

Dr G. W. Walls says that his father is growing weaker every day.
