December 7, 1893 A number of teachers in town Saturday. We regret to learn of the illness of Mrs. I. A. Hickman Profs Pevey and Robertson of Hebron spent Sunday in town. Matters of greater importance crowd out the local news this week. Prof. Green of Silver Creek passed through town last week to and from a visit to Brookhaven. We regret to lose Mr. G. H. Fox and family from our midst, who moved back to their place on the river last week. Mr. H. C. Smith and famil have married into the residence recently vacated by Mr. Fox. Always glad to have such valuable additions to our town. Supervisor Jones directs us to say that he will begin the inspection of the public roads in this Beat on the 15th inst., and overseers whose road are not in good by that time will positively be reported. Senatobia, Miss., Nove. 28, 1892, Having used Dr. Tichenor's Antiseptic on a cold cut by barb wire, I can heartily recommend it as an excellent rememdy for such cases. P. M. B. Wait, Sheriff The editor of the Press enjoyed a delightful visit to the charming little city of Silver Creek last Thursday, and took in Prof. Green's Thanksgiving concert that evening. We regret that our limited space will not allow such a notice of the exercises as we wold like to give, but suffice it to say, the occasion was quite an enjoyable one, considering that no time at all had been given to rehersal. To Capt. J. J. Denson are we especially indebted for courtesies, which gentleman was so kind as to furnish us conveyance to and from Silver Creek.

"Old Winter" has appeared once again in full force, and a cosy fireside is highly appreciated by one and all. Messrs A. J. Dale and W. W. Buckley made a flying visit to the Crescent City. They report a royal time. Will says that Dolph wore his girl's photograph and his railroad ticket on his hat while in the city. Mr. A. C. Buckley of Monticello was shaking hands with a host of friends at preaching yesterday. We are glad to have you with us, old boy, come again. D. M. Stringer, one of the oldest citizens of our community, went hunting the other day for the first time in twenty years. Though his locks are fleecy, he can still see to shoot his rifle. He killed a hawk measuring four feet from tip to tip of wings. In his entrails he fond a ground rattle snake fifteen inches in length. Is there any man of his age who can beat this?
