Come lrom the City of Colleges, High Education ami / Morals. Mr. R. E. Brownleo and hie son, Ollie Brownlee, and Mr. Agnew Stevenson, came | down from Due "West last Monday when | all oT our people whose privilege It was to j meet them, were glad to .see our streets , some of the best men of the city of col- j leges. The tyoung gentlemen are handsome 1 specimens of true manhood. We have not begun to charge this up to them on ac count of their not being married, but we will keep tab on them hereafter. Of Mr. Brownlee we have a little story I which proves the erroneousness of the' idea that poor boys, or young men if you j better like the latter classification, should j not marry. When Mr. R. C. Browlee j started out in life he had not a dollar. But j he hudja brave heart and steady hand. For two years he was salesman or book- j 1 1.. ? 1 1 iLA ..J ? m 1.1 A. 1.1 Kt'uptjr in ti siure. At uno tJiiu ui tuiib uiuw i he told his sweetheart that he had in this j world's goods only the savings of somel two years' work. Making an honest con-: fession of both his financial condition and the yearning of his heart, he submitted his fate to the best beloved girl on earth and told her if she would take him, that he was anxious to marry her, but being of a mercenary mind, and recognizing the true manhood in an honest heart, his proposition was accepted. Miss Kitty Bonne r, ^daughter of the late Rev. 1.1. Bonner, D. D.iand young Robert C. Brown lee were then married. A number of chil dren have camo to them to bless and to make happy the hearts of the poor boy moneyless girl. Mr. Brownlee, we believe is now not only one of the best men in the town, but as he is perhaps the richest man in Due West. In his history, any idea that worthy young people should have money before, their marriage is set at naught.] ,i,7.. ,..v..v1rr;li _i,.ii..nx loii-yi on Bnv G( u )F COURSE, ere It Is: of the improver money.
