Country Correspondence from Locust, Nov. 25, 1924

Country Correspondence from Locust

The severe freeze stopped the supply of fresh vegetables from gardens. Green beans, squash, tomatoes and corn were still being grown by some gardeners, something which is rather out of the ordinary for the season.

Mrs. M.L. Green received the sad intelligence of the death of her young nephew, J.P.. the 8-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. James Stafford of Randolph county.

Friends of Rev. W.J. Russell will regret to learn that his little child is sick from pneumonia. However, at this time she shows signs of improvement.

Mrs. R.E. Hatley has returned from a week’s visit with her sister at Plyler.

A.J. Furr has been suffering from hiccoughs. He consulted physicians at a Charlotte hospital on two days for the trouble.

Mrs. Sophia Barbee is having a house built in Charlotte where she will move when it is completed.

Mr. and Mrs. L.D. Sperts spent last Sunday with friends in Badin.

Two of Mrs. A.H. Temple’s sisters, Mrs. Glenn of Sparta, Ill., and Mrs. Stewart of Kansas City, Mo., are on a visit here to Mr. and Mrs. Temple.

Rev. W.L. Walker, the new Presbyterian pastor, preached an interesting sermon at Beulah last Sunday.
