Spring Hope Items
Mr. Luther Strickland, who has been in the employ of the
Quality Shop for quite a while, has resigned his position and has gone to
Zebulon to accept a similar position with the Flowers Clothing Co. We are very
sorry to give Mr. Strickland up, he was such a fine young man, but we hope that
he will decide to come back some later day. He is succeeded by Mr. Arthur
Marshbourn, formerly of Tampa, Florida, who is now on the job, and will be glad
to have his many friends in this community all to see him.
Mr. I.B. Gardner has begun work on his new brick stables. He
has the material and men on the job and hopes to have them in readiness for
business by fall. When completed these stalls will be among the best in town
and will have all the modern conveniences.
Mr. John Roberson has arrived home from the service and is
at his home in Stanhope. Mr. Roberson was 2nd Lieutenant in his
company and saw considerable service while over seas. His many friends and
relatives are glad to see him back and to know of the honor attained by him
while in service.
Burbon Murray, the 13-months-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Jafus
Murray who live near Gold Valley, died last Tuesday night of intestinal
trouble. The little fellow suffered intensely for three days before his death.
Interment took place in the cemetery at Gold Valley on Wednesday afternoon.
Mr. Ricks Edwards has resigned his position as carrier on
Route 2 from Spring Hope and Mr. J.R. Laughter has the route now. Mr. Edwards
was a good carrier and the many patrons on the route are sorry to give him up,
though they have a good man in Mr. Laughter, who needs no recommendation to
them. Mr. Edwards is now in the employ of Mr. W.G. Jones who is the contractor
of the Planters Mutual Warehouse Company.
