If a few public spirited people would get together and induce a few factories to locate here and build where some of the ravines are, it would be the best thing that could happen.

A large factory with basement and all could be put up at a very reasonable cost, and it would add thousands of dollars to the general appearance of the town. Sam JUDAH, the hack driver from this city to Oolitic, had quite an experience Wednesday evening and probably saved the life of an aged lady.

The lady got out to fix it, and in some manner got tangled in the harness and lines and was down under the horse's feet unable to get up or extricate herself.
