"Hoot Owl" Shares News from Flat, Jan. 25, 1924

Flat News

We have been having a lot of rain and some cold snaps of late.

The measles are raging in this section, and the changeable weather doesn’t suit very well.

Mr. Walter Morga has quit work on the Winding Stair Road and is now employed driving Mr. T.J. Trammell’s mule team.

Mr. Marvin Cochran and some other boys helped Mr. Dill Owenby fight a fire one night last week.

Uncle Coon Cochran started to alight form his horse the other day, when his foot hung in the stirrup and e could not remove himself until several of his friends came to his aid. If his horse had been scary, he would probably have been seriously hurt.

Mr. Grady May has completely recovered from his injuries received from J.F. Wilson’s horse.

From page 2 of The Franklin Press, Jan. 25, 1924. Column by “Hoot Owl.”
