Times Correspondence. t Sam'l Boyd, who has been bedfast for t\\^o months or more, 1 has got able to be about some. ' The little child of Dave Gibson is no better, and is yet a great sufferer. Lay-bye time has come and the I straw-hat boys can now lay in , the shade, eat his melons, drink his cider and will thank no one to be his pa. We think the cotton crop is doing fairly well, but the worms are ruining corn, we learn, and it is needing rain Daaiy. |' Dave Gibson and Bill Epps j have quite a fine dog they are raising between them. We don't i know the pedigree of this dog all ) the way through, but we think \ one half is poodle and the other t half is just plain dog, and while < he is (piite a Small dog the two t gentlemen have all the dog they j want in Bull Towser. ' We went down to Fort Mill one ' day recently and halted in front of Ardrey's drug store, having > some business there. We hadn't , been there but a few moments I when a policeman came to us and ' said we had been theie the full . ten minutes all the time there i we were allowed?and were or- j dered to move on. Well, as the 1 nigger said, "We always try to>) ! pervide by the law," and so we i geed old Mack over and halted in front of Kimbrell Co.'s, and were preparing to rest and take a smoke, when here comes the same bluecoat. Meeting me on that side he slopped over against me and for fear of further orders. I hawed old Mack over on the other side, finished my smoke i and then moved off homeward. Well, now, we have known Fort I Mill since it was "colted" sixtyodd years ago and we are won- : dering if the streets are getting too slippery or the jrr^und too holy for us to stand on more than ten minutes at one time. But, then, we \\iill try to 4,pervide by the law." Splinter. Gold Hill, July l'J. A o? TALK IS CHEAP and is alright in its place, but it won't run the furnace nor bake bread.
