I had the pleasure of meeting
your veteran correspondent J. L.
S. last Monday morning. To say
that I was glad to meet him would
but feebly express the facts in the
case. His hair like mine is white
by the frosts of so many winters
and as I stood and chatted with
1 him, I realized the fact that cares
1 had made so many channels in our
faces that it would take an expert
j to find out how handsome we once
were.
Died yesterday evening at his
home at Loekhart, Mr. .T. G. Bailey.
Mr. Bailey was 74 years old last December.
He had been in declining
health for some months, but was
able to do his ordinary duties. As
it looked favorable for frost he covered
bis beans and returned to the
house.
' He went to the bucket for a drink

totter and caught him. lie never
spoke after that. The attack was
after !? i>. in. and he died ahout X
on the same evening.
Mr. Bailey was liorn and raised (

* An interesting Letter from
Jack, the Farmer.
: \ JoNEsvii.i.i-:, April 10. ?\Vol 1 these
* are gay times as well as sad. It j
seems like the young folks enjoy .
. themselves so much and get younger. ,
That makes me wish 1 was young ,
again. Sometimes I get to grumb^
j ling because 1 can't stand a hand j
,{ now like I used to, but Mrs. .Jack j
, says you can't make old folks out
I of young ones, and said she enjoyed ]
going about and having a big time ']
with young folks, and if she bad r
her time to go over she would have tj
it again, and of course I dried up, v
and didn't say any more. ?
Spring is upon us and we are
gardening right along. We have v
got four old hens setting on fifteen j,
eggs a piece, and you know that w
means fried chickens soon, but sure t,l
that is a long time to wait, hut wo tj
have got enough old stock to feed a
the preacher on for a while yet. ()j
Mrs. Jack never gives herself much
_ l ?
vuiiiHjrii aiKiut tne preacher's din- ^
nor when she has an old hen in the a(
coop and a good cake of hotter in
the dairy, but you know preachers OJ
like a little sugar in their coffee p,
too. ec
1 was in Union a few days ago
and was handed a petition calling th
an election in this county for liquor
or no liquor, submitting the ques- (.j,
tion to the voters of Union county. yC
1 am glad the people arc getting ft(,
tired of the dispensary, and the 1
sooner we break it up the lietter. I*)
I hope every man will sign the petition
and then go to the polls and \vj
vote in the interest of our mothers, (;n
wives, and children and the inter- y,,
ust of the whole country.
W'e had a cotton convention at wc
loncsville Saturday, with a repre- j cov
icntative from every section of the suf
mship. All reports were good
r people up here mean business
J we mean to stand to the rack,
Ider or no fodder. You know .
mo of our noble Ixjc and Jack1
men were Jonesvillians that
kkI to tlie rack where there _
is no fodder at all. We don't |"
jan by this that we can do it all,
t we can do our part. 1 don't
ink wo should confine ourselves
the cotton question altogether,
i should talk over our farming
tercsts generally, and lie of some
lp to one another in every possie
way.
If you know a l>etter way to plant
>rn than your neighbor don't liesate
to tell it. We never know H
hat we can do for others until we
yWe
were to have Judge J. M.
reer with us last meeting to give
s a lecture on our county life iniiranee
association, but for some
eason he did not come. I suppose
ie will Ik4 with us at our next nieettig
which will be the last Saturday
n this month at three o'clock,
'onie out gentlemen and take a life
>olicy, it will cost you but very lit?
le and you will always feel safer by
laving it. The cost is so little cv ry
one can afford to take a policy
11 this company. I believe it to lie
he best way we can protect our
amilics after we are gone. You
enow it can't be long before the
most of us will have to leave our
loved ones and now is the time to
prepare for then- fortunes.
1 went to the quarterly meeting
lit Bogansville last Wednesday, and
glad to toll you Jack made a better
show than he did before, although
it was not enough to brag on. It
did me good to meet those hospitable
friendly, truly and good people
they surely made Jack feel like
he was among friends, and that
dinner you know, I enjoyed it. 1
ate so much I got lazy. The preacher
said he was in no fix to preach
after eating so much dinner, but I
tell you his breakfast did not better
him a bit, he certainly delivered a
good sermon, which every one enjoyed
very much. His subject l>cing
"Jesus thou son of the living
God, what have I to do with thee."
Mrs. Jack, children and myself
drove over to our friend's that
tempted mo so with the potatoes
some time ago. She said she had
a jar of good sausage she had put
away for us, but it had spoilt, you
know that hurt my feelings. Although
her potatoes and sausage
