She leaves children and grand children who will ever cherish her memory. At one time the Coleman estate owned about one-half the property of the town.

Besides, at this opportunity, any point arising in one's course of duty needing light could obtain the solicitor's consideration and advice, thus giving all the benefit of the experiences of the several. These meetings might produce a spirit of interest in a zeilous performance which would develope a better administration of the laws.

Alliancemen in that community are live and progressive, and they thought it would be pleasant ana prontauie to meet together, 111 a social way; review the past, and gain further information and instruction for the future, and that these ends ; might be accomplished they invited several prominent Alliance brethren to address them on the occasion. However, knowing that the physical , wants of man must be supplied as well : as the mental, they dccided to have : a good "Xmas barbecue dinner," as abo\ier^ted^Xatux^. seemed to smile "on their efforts, the day dawinitlg^bright and beautiful, while it was cool enough to be pleasant and enjoyable. All present seemed to realize the old adage? "At Xmas play and make good clioer ForXmas comes but once a year." About two hundred and fifty white people were present, including men, women and childdren; and also a considerable number of the "brother in black/' I think all present were highly pleased with the dinner that was spread. The barbecued meat and hash were good and abundant, and there was also a plentiful supply of the delicacies that arc necessary to make a complete "layout." And then, there was hot coffee, and syllabul as extras, and I would indeed be recreant to my trust if 1 should fail to mention this fact after having indulged so freely. After the whites had partaken of the feast to their satisfaction t he "Drotners in black" were invited to take a hand, which they did with alacrity and V'thont much formality.
