In response to an invitation Mr. J V. Sarratt and a Ledger representa tive spent Wednesday on Broad river amid Cherokee’s iron mines with Col. John Logan Black. Mr. Sarratt called for The Ledger man about 8 o’clock in the morning, and shortly after his faithful animal was drawing the two down Cherokee avenue towards the river. Nothing worthy of special mention transpired enroute, and al« most ths first aiona nf life t greet- ed the travelers after leaving the old road for the new one that led to the new ferry was the friendly greeting given the visitors by Joe Rice, the colonel’s man-of-all-work. Joe was buaiJy engaged in building a corduroy across a boggy place. He discon tinued his work long enough to get in his skiff fetid row across the aiver for the flat and take us over. The drive to,44ie colonel’s habitation Is, about a quarter aftef reaching the other side of the river. Ifr. Sarratt “hallged” and was answered with, a warm greeting from withfjt. The colonel came to the door. afid'at be came be remarked: “I ha some people to visit ma your are the'.first gen . -had .to sail iu two wee did net-win ua by his, 'habitation is ,apd commands a.good Hero Iron Phosphor u# O.ttfl “ By the same Conceni rai • r% r.*- ducH.i by H Brsd^ird.

By way of parenthe sis the Colonel remarked that the next time we called he would give us “hell-fired” hash, but Mr Harrstt says he thinks the Colonel got mixed and gave us the latter dish on this occasion. At ahy rate it was so hot that there were indications that Joe had lost the pepper box in the pot and failed to find it, and^t- 8- did not get cooled off until yesterday morning. But it was good, neverthe less, and we hope to be able to eat “deviled” hash with the Colonel again. Let the reader make no mis take and think that “dfevlfed” fcash was all we had to eat, for the balance of the menu was of the “warm mem ber” variety and there was an abun dance of It. After dinner we were taken over the place and shown the iron ore mines. VVe brought a num ber of fine specimens home with us, and if there is a skeptic on the sub ject of valuable iron ore in.
