"BELOW THE SURFACE" One day last week, so it is said, three boys at Blossburg, named Jesse JACKSON, Ross TURNER, and Chester LYNN, stole from the check office a check amounting to over $100. It is further said that they tried to make use of the check at the store of Mr. TURNER, where they were detected and the matter reported to the office. Later, it is said the mother of Jesse JACKSON, fearing detection, destroyed the check in the fire. No arrests were made so far as could be learned, and it is understood that settlement is pending between the parents of the boys and the company.

DUGAN has been seriously ill and has been confined to her bed for about a week, and hope she will soon recover. "DEATH OF MRS. MINOR" As the forms of Herald closed last Friday night the rumor came that Mrs. J. W. MINOR, who had been in such critical condition for several days was much improved and would recover. Before morning, however, death came to the relief of the sufferer. The funeral services were held at the family residence in Ensley on Tuesday at 12 o'clock by her pastor, REV. J. V. DICKINSON, assisted by Rev. M. M. WOOD, and Rev. B. D. GRAY from Birmingham. The remains were interred at Woodlawn cemetery. The Funeral services were delayed that her brothers, the Messrs. ROBINSON could reach here from Toledo, Ohio. and that a brother of Mr. MINOR, Mr. J. D. MINOR, of Grand Rapids, Michigan might also be in attendance. Mrs. MINOR was one of the best known lades of Jefferson County, , full of good works--one of that noble type of womanhood that is a benediction to meet. ******* Hope this helps someone jabtillery@home.com

The photographer came down Thursday and made the second attempt to get a likeness of a group of No. 6 boys, but as Mike TRAVIS and " Uncle Sam" were in the lot, we doubt if he will be able to develop the negative this time. L. B. HARVILL spoiled the first one. Marvin TAYLOR, the handsome tally boss at No. 6, Miss TRAVIS, check weighman, and "conductor" HARVILL are free, independent and unlimited candidates for matrimony. ***** Hope this helps someone or is just interesting "news" from 1899. jabtillery@home.com
