UEO. WILSON HILLS HIS WIFE.
Huticks Her In the Head With a Piece ol
Iron and then Tries to little the Body.
Thnew year starts out with a wile
murder in this county. We regret that
it becomes our duty to chronicle thi
killing.
On Wednesday morning of this week
ia No. 6 township George Wilson and
his wife woro walking down the public
road in 200 yards of their humble hotre
where their six children were. They
quarreled and George, who had a piece
of iron in his hand that he had carried
fron home, drew back and struck his
wife in the head and dragged her from
the road to the bushes and throw tYe
body in the ditch and went on. Tt.o
wife's mother, who saw the dIleulty,
got up soine persons and called in Dr.
W. 1). Sonn who lived near by and had
the body removed to the home of the
unfortunate woman where she died in
about three-quarters of an hour after
being struck without regaining con
sciousness.
The mother of the woman says they
were not quarroling when they left the
house.
They were living with Mr. J. R.
Hendrix and had just moved, being mn
der contract to work this year for him.
They say George is a negro who is not
very bright, bit his action in this case
looks like the whole thing was promed
itated.
Coroner Lindsay held an inquest
Wednesday afternoon and the verdict
was in accordance with-above fac s
Sheriff Biuford has requested the cor
oner always to notify him as soon as a
homicide is comnit.ted and not wait
until after the inquest. So on Wednes
day the sherif wta out after Wilson
before the coroner got there. But
Wilson after commit ting Lho deed and
leaving returned to Lonlhores, and he
had been arrested before the sheriff
arrived.
This is a good plan of Sheriff Buford.
It does not givt the criminal so much
time to get away.
Wilson is now in jil].

For a number of years, since we Ilave
been engaged in rubbing up thoughts
for the public, we have made it a rule
at the beginning of the new year to try
and introduce something that might be
of interest to the readers.
In the first place, we want to thank
our good lady friond for asking us to
give another one of our good new year
letters. Such words of compliment
are always highly esteemed by the
writer, but we always feel that they
are more flattering than wO deserve.
We never undertake to write * letter
of this kind but what creates thoughts
of sadness-to think another Christmas
has come and gone, which has turned
down one more leaf upon the p. ges of
our life, 305 more days never to be
Ived by an"one again. Yes, the light
of the old year has closed upon us with
all its sorrows, troubles, disappoint
ments, perplexities, joys, happiness and
pleasures.
'1he tst year, likn all ,thmrA, has
been one of varying scenes, with its
sunshine and its shadow. And so we
will find the years to come. It is
largely left with each individual to say
for himself whether the sunshine or
the shadow shall predominate in his
own life.
While we have mny thing8 to look
back upon the old year with sorrow
and regret, yet we should lift ul our
voices in thanksgiving and praise that'
while so many loving ones and smiling
faces whom we knew only one Christ
mas ago are now sharing the realities
of an unknown world to i, God has
been so merciful to us that we now
stand upon the borders of another new
year as living monuments of his crea
tion.
The beginning of a new year brings
to our minds an overwhelming sense ef
work to be done. There is somehow
concentrated into the first of the year,
a realization of the work of the whole
year. But we must strive to throw olT
the depression of so heavy a burden.
All the uncertainties, labors and poss1
blo perplexities and disasters of the
coming twelve months crowd on the
imagination and change the outlook
from one of hope and inspiration to one
of liscouragement and almost of do
spair. If we were called to face the
whole of a year at once, the strongest
of us would certainly fail. But as our
whole work is divided into fragments,
the weakest of us, if wo only have
courage, are able to carry tho whole
load.
Let our deeds of the past, year, be
them good or evil, God knows them all
and they are marked down agalkist us;
so let us look forward and forget those
things which aro behind us, and reach
forth to those thing6 which are before
-to press forward to t,o mark for the
prize of the high calling In Jesus
Christ.
Now let us all make a new step in the
blossed new year which stands beforc
us untouched, and be sure to lot a part
of that step be kindness. "Kind
words turnoth away. wrath, but griev
ouls wordls stirreth up anger.'" First
p)ractico kindness in your domestic life,
then it will conmc nat,ural with y'ou ini
your outer life. JIust t,hink what a t,ln
dency kindness has to unload a burden
In conclusion with these thoughts,
Mr. Editor and dear readers, I extend
to you all my best wishes as a new
year gift, and earnestly pray that
prosperity, peace, love and happiness
may redown upon our heads the com
ing new year. And let us take all
things with a view that we are only to
live one day at a time.

Trho Christmas holidays passed off
with remarkable quietude,no accident,s
of any kind that we have heard of,
Notwithstanding the depiressedl condli
t,ioni of the country, everybody seemned
to he in very gaood cheer. The little
folks were made hiappy by the uispal
visit of eld Santa Claus, which they at
ways look forward to with much de
light and joy. This Santa Claus' doc
trine we have always considerced to be
an erroneous one, hut, yet, it's an old
cust.om which has been p)racticed1 by
our old foroparonts for p)ast genera
tions, andl we keep It up in memory of
them.
1"or fear that we will slight, someone,
we wvill omit, the Christmas visiting.
Here goes for the changes made
among our wvhito peCople. Mr. John C.
Sligh mnoved from his p)laeo near the
old Galiman homestead to trie'Colony
communit,y. Mr. A. .J. Long mfov'ed
from his p)lace on liidgo roadl to the
factory at Nowherry. Mr. J1. H. Kib1
1cr moved from his p)lace to his son-in
law's, Mr. T1. L. 1H. Epps. Mr. W. W.
KIinard moved from Mr. J1. 11. Foellers'
pla1ce near Prosperity to Dr. JT. 11. Simnp
son's old Sligh place near Jinchman
t hapel. Mr. (1. S. Rikard moved from
Mr. Mark M ills' p)lace and now occu
pies the house with Mr. A. TI. P'iestor
that was vacat,ed by Mr. Kinard. We
have just learned that. Dr. D). II.
Wertz will mTove today from Slighm's
hack to his old1 honwrplaco in Jolly
Street section. T1hiis about compilletes
the moving among the whites through
this section, as far as we can draw to
our mind, and if I undertook to note all
the mnovinig that took place among the
negroes, it, would take about one side
of the paper.
Enook hee Kay, what kind of a lix Is
that you had your arm put In? .I don't
exactly remeuber, but it strikes mne
that you said something about having
it "oculated," and asked Chips to sizo
up the word. Qualibus, ampullis no
ejicias. Look here, old Bud, you have
I)ut 3me to a heap of trouble. I have
had to take down one of my little
b>ooks on you, and I'll bo dad-snapted if
I draw down my old big digester I'll
Literally tear you into flinders.
Its no us0 of telling the people that
we're having some hard frozen weather,
Lhey all know that. Notwithstanding
Uhristwas was a rough day to face the
weather, we in company with Mr. J. P.
Kinard wert over and enjoyed the day
with our old friend, Col. D. A. Rufl,
and his hospitable faintly. Almost
cverybody in the county knows Col.
RuIT, and a day's visit to his homo just
slmply neans a day's enjoyinent. If
iuir whole country was just filled with
such peopl ats Col. RuIT, Perry and
Ben IIalfatere, we would have better
times. Col. Rutff lives and boards at
1,he same place, and his pile of conI),
fodder, peas, bacon, plumpkins, pota
Loes, imolasses and all just such stuff
show that he's not only a farmer by
name. If all other farmers would di
versity their Crops ats Col. Hity, they
wouldn't be so iteli Interested iII the
repeal of the lion law.
Look here, Kay, I thought you told
mei0 that you were going to keep politics
outof the cott.un grower' organization.
My dear- SIr, it har1-dly got in'. exist
onco before they began to discuss politi
0al Ineasures. I will have a little more
to say about the matter in the fut re.
