LIFE AT LISBON.
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.
