Lisbon Nov. 28,1904. We are glad to be able to give the few dots from this place. We have made good crops and were ready to enjoy Thank giving day last Thursday. The crops are about .harvested and a lot of small grain has been sown, as high-priced wheat had demanded it. We think some of the many farmers have made up their minds to have their corn and meat houses at home and not depend on those in the West. That is the idea. Mrs. Milam is in Columbia at the bed side of her son who is very ill. We hope to hear that he is on the way to early re covery . Mrs. K. F. Teaguc. of Colum bia, is visiting relatives in this community. Miss Boyd, of Mountvllle, Is; visiting her aunts, Mrs. Milam and Mrs. Puller. Mr. and Mrs. G. T. Hollis, of Cross Keys, visited the families of J. N. Wright and J. T. A. Bal lew last week. Mr. Hollis is one of the successful farmers of that place, an upright, high toned Christian gentleman, and we are always pleased to have him and his interesting family in our midst. Mr. Tom Holmes is in St. Louis attending the World's Fair. Mrs. Charles Robertson of Alabama will visit her parents, Mr. and Mrs. T, S. Teague soon. Mr. John Teague has a job at that place and will return with his sister the first of next Jan uary to assume his duties. Mrs. W. P. Morris has been very unwell, but glad to say is much better at this time. We hope to see her up soon. Death of Mae Jennings Clinton, Nov. 29th.
