Nothing Spoils the
Holidays
The Christmas holidays passed off in Hendersonville with an
almost complete absence of disorder. A couple of Uncle Sam’s soldiers spending
the day here absorbed a trifle more than the prescribed quantity of “blockade”
and were allowed to cool off for an hour or two in the shady precincts of the
City Hall, and then went their way rejoicing, grateful that no severer penalty
had been exacted for their small celebration. One or two local celebrities,
white and colored, enriched the city treasury by small fines, but on the whole
it was probably the most orderly and undisturbed Holiday season Hendersonville
has yet achieved. For which thanks are rendered by all the good citizens, and
especially by the city authorities.
