LOST MOUNTAIN

After a lingering illness of several months, Mrs Mary P PICKENS died on the 26th
of January at the age of 79 years.  She bore her long suffering with a great
deal of patience, never seeming to complain of her affliction.  She was indeed a
christian woman and those who knew her can testify best as to her walk in life.
 She connected herself with the Presbyterian church early in life and lived a
devoted member.  She was one of the charter members of Midway church.  She
leaves four sons and four daughters and a host of grand-children to mourn her
death.  She was buried Saturday at Midway graveyard, Rev G T BOURNE conducting
the funeral service.  We deeply sympathize with the relatives in their sad
bereavement.

We regret to learn of the death of one of Upshaw's best citizens, Mr D D BABB. 
We extend our sympathy to the bereaved family.

Omer PICKENS' sickness proved to be a case of measles.

Mr Wheeler SHIPP, the mail carrier, came home with the measles one day last
week.  A good many had a chance to take them.  Guess we will have plenty of
measles now.

Miss Pearl BULLARD has pneumonia fever.

Miss Annie DUBOSE is here to spend two weeks.  We welcome her smiling face among
us.

J W ARNOLD is building a barn for Mr BAGWELL.

J M PICKENS of Sand Mountain, Ala., attended the burial of his mother here.
