He was a native of the Brown Creek section of v^nion county, but moved to this^oc tion from the mountains V* North Carolina about 18 yeatl( ago, ii : I The schedules on the C. & L. are not the best at present, owing to the rush of the guano jf season and the poor condition ot the roadbed. For some time there has been more business than the road could handle, and the rough weather and the heavy traffic has played liavoc with the roadbed in many places, so that the trains are now required to travel' slowly in many places. The white clay roadbed about the Cato siding below Ruby is i 1 very unsatis factory condition, and two or three smnll wrufUs lmvi> nr?o?irr- i ed there lately, but little damage Iras been done. A rather novel plan for raising the funds for the expenses of h the church is in vogue at Union p HTTl church in the western part f, of the county. The members have cotton patches and give all p the cotton raised on the particu- \ lar patch dedicated to the Lord's work. As the cotton is gathered t< it is weighed and carried to the T preacher, Rev. R. W. Cato, who has it ginned, sells it and credits each one with his part of the proceeds. He says this plan works admirably, and that no ? trouble is expcriencedfin raising the necessary funds. Some more S of the churches might do well to si try this plan. Some who would \ hot pay more than a dollar or j two under the old plan pay as' high as fifteen, said Mr. Cato.
