Mr. Henry W. Parham an aged
citizen of Mallory died on Saturday,
June the 4th, at hiB home. Mr. Parham's
occupation was farming, and
he followed his calling with energy
and skill, and was known to be
among the beat farnrers of this section,
as well as a high toned christian
gentleman. At his next birthday
Mr. Parham would have been 79
years old. He was sick only about
two weeks. He leaves a. widow and
two sons, W. W. and A. L. Parham,

where he had a son buried some
years ago.
On Friday morning a little girl
had some business at one of the
banks here in town. When she arrived
at the bank and found it closed,
asked a gentleman who stood near
why the bank was not open. He answered
her by telling her that a
Mr. Davis had died and that the bank
was closed on account of his death.
She went back to her home somewhat
sad and told the sad news to her
family and her friends whom she met
during the day, and by the time that
the ladies gathered for the meeting
ai the Library, which was the D. A.
R. the question was being frequently
asked, "I wonder which Mr. Davis it
was that has recently died and for
which the banks are closed? One lady
after thinking, spoke out and said,
"Why it was our beloved "Jeff Davis,"
who died about fifty years ago,
and this is his birthday."

NOTICE TO FORMER SOLDIERS
OF DILLON COUNTY
Every former soldier living in J
Dillon County is urged to have *
his DIcharge Certificate recorded In

book that is large enough to have
a copy of every ex-soldier's discharge
recorded and we the Dillon Post of
The American Legion urge every man
in this county to have this done at
| once.. Although this may not mean '
anything to you ex-service men now
but the day might come when some
of your people will want some record
to show that you fought in the
World's War (such as drawing a
pension) and If your discharge is recorded
there will be no doubt that
you were one of the boys.
This source of record was adopted
at the last regular meeting of Dillon
Post No. 32, The American Legion
and we want every man to cooperate
with us and help us have these discharges
recorderd.
