Cross Roads, June 12-
Spencer Ward of Galveston is visiting his people
of Cross Roads.
"Grandpa" McCulloch, who is seriously
ill is reported no better at this writing.
The Baptist people of Cross Roads had a good dinner and these
good Baptist ladies gave "Uncle" Dick a plate and asked
me to help myself. It makes me feel like I was with my own
people. Many from out of town attended the meeting Saturday. When
I went up in town Amos Odell gave me a cigar and
I was making this smoke fly on each side of my beard and the town
boys said: "Uncle Dick an officer is a hunting you" and
then I collapsed.
O. M. Kinabrew said they had cotton blooms on
his farm.
B. Welch and W. D. Thornton are
hauling their Irish potatoes. Thornton and Jim Whitman
trucked two loads to Athens and my son, B. Welch brought
"Uncle" Dick potatoes that will weigh a pound each.
Deputy Sheriff Jepson of Athens had business in
Cross Roads Saturday.

of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels."-Proverbs
