The weather was pleas ant, not too sold for comfort, and those who spent the day out hunting had a delightful day for their sport. On Main street the stores were all closed, and the bank and the postoffice also, and the dispensary being closed as well the town was as quiet and peaceful as if it had been Sunday. In several churches special thanksgiving services were held and in almost every home the day was observed by family gatherings and feasting. It is not often that the holiday is kept as generally as it was Thursday, and the clerks and most of the busi ness men ejoyed the day thoroughly. The graded schools, white and colored, were closed and the operatives of the cotton mill had holiday. The Appetite of a Goat.
