Rev. Mr. Hammett preached at A'
ingdon Creek church to a large ar
orderly congregation. His subje
was "Tho Exceeding Joy of the R
deemed," and his text, Acts 15:
together with 31st verse. This w<
our first time to hear him since t
has been serving that people, and v
were very much impressed with hit
as a man and minister. The secoc
Sabbath in August was the time s<
to begin the protracted meeting i
that place.
The weather still continues warn
and we arc needing rain. Cotton
faring very well. Corn too, look
well Where it has received ita neeea
sary work.
We regret to hear of the sicknei
reported on "Tho Ridge," and v
deeply sympathize with our old com
rade and friend, II. S. Porter an
his family in the loss of a wife an
mother.
A few cases of sickness are sea
tcred over this county, but none <
them are serious that wo know of.
The telephone line will soon t
com plot ed to Sarratt's, and we tru
it will run on to Union or to Gaffhc
to give us an outlet on this side <
the river.
Arrangements havo about bee
completed by which the mail froi
Union to this placo will be startc
regularly. Congressman Finley hi
taken the matter in hand, and wi
give it such recommendation as tl
interest of his constituents this sir!
of the rivet demand. This has bee
a great Inconvenience to our Nort
Pacolet people. While those Sout
of the river have fared much bette
The regular summer meeting wi
begin at Salem on the night of ft
30th inst., and continues perhaps
week.
The farmers on both sides of Pac<
let river have suffered greatly by th
floods. So much so that they at
practically ruined by it. Thousam
of acres of land will be unfit for agr
cultural use for the next generatioi
at least.
We arc needing bridges at bot
Skull Shoals and Grindall Shoal
and hope the counties of Union an
Cherokee will see their way to r
place them soon.

f
Very appropriately, the "Souther
' Field." in its midsummer issue, admoi
i ishes its Northern readers to "go Sout
for the summer," thus submitting
geographical amendment to a well knoa
1 admonition. So many Northern peop
have built "winter" homes for then
j selves which have since been devoted t
i summer home purposes that tire "Field
? does not lack support foi the assertic
' that the summer is the best of all set
[ sons for Northern and Western peop!
i whether tourists or prospectors, to vis
r the southern country.
High altitudes, frech breezes from tl
1 Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexio
and other equalizing factors make tl
l South equally desirable as a placet
i wliner ana summer resiaence. ^
f The Field, as usual, devotes a larj
amount of space to pointing out the ai
rloultural and business advantages pn
sen ted by the great country tributary \
