Mrs. Hawkins’ Birthday
Mrs. C.J. Hawkins celebrated her 89th birthday Sunday. Mrs. Hawkins is said to be the oldest resident of the city. She has held her membership in the First Baptist church of this city for a long number of years and during the services Sunday especial reference was made to her strong loyalty to this institution. Her granddaughter, Mrs. Will Morrow of Marshall, rendered a solo during the service.
