The Gazette of Clinton repiib- i
libber what The News had to say t
about a Lancat-ter child, little
Frances Williams, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. I). Keece Williams, a
winning the prize at the recent t
baby show in Clinton, and com- t
ments thereon as tollows : )
"Huh! You're way oil", Bro. v
News. Why, the aioresaid prize I
baby is after ali at least hdf-aCliuton
baby?its fair and winsome
mama being a Clinton girl, o
therefore Clint* n lias a ri?lit, u
under the Federal constitution, s
to lay claim to the charm and hits 0
in this simply blue-ribboned ber d
own. In the Book ol Genesis we a
are told that Cain, "wearv" ol d
looking at the homely daughters v
of Lancaster, went over into the
land of Clinton to take unto him
self a wife Air. Williams, the 1
wise lather ol this prize-winning j;
baby, confiding in Mr. Cain's t
good judgment, followed suit and, h
ol course, found, not in Lancas- j
ter, mark you, hut in Clinton, t
far from the borders of Nod, one t
of the "sweetest and handsomest t
of women."
We heartily endorse, esteemed
contemporary all that you say t
about the charming mother, and e
while little Miss Frances is sweet s
enough tor all?both Lancaster 1
and Clinton?as Schley said ol
the glory ol America's victory a
over the Spanish lleet?still, in t
the interest of unbiased lustory, r
it must be recorded that the
lovely child is the "living image''
ot her fond lather, who is himself {
a line Lancaster product, so to j
apeak. c
But say, where did you get r
your bible ? If it tells you that n
Mr. Cain or mis'er anybody else a
ever saw* any "homely daughters
ol Lancaster", our advice to you (
is to lose no time in swapping it off j
