The Georgia Enterprise July 4, 1889
~Capt. L. F. Stephenson has the finest field of bottom corn to be found in the 
county.

~Miss Estelle Thompson, a lovely and charming young lady, of Rocky Plains, 
spent last week with friends in Covington and Oxford.

~Mrs. H. H. Mabry, one of the best ladies in all this land, has been quite busy 
for several days canning berries and making jelly.

~Mr. John R. Thompson is not only a good farmer, fine ball player, crack wing 
shot, but now turns out to be the champion marble player of western Newton.

~Mr. W. B. Harvey has evidently recently discovered something very attractive 
down this way. This reminds up that Mr. Davis Harvey, of Monticello, also spent 
a day or two of last week in this section.

~Mr. J. S. Chestnut happened to a very serious accident a few days ago. While 
on his way to the field the animal he was riding became frightened and threw 
him and in the fall his foot became fastened in the plough gear. He was dragged 
for some distance before the horse could be stopped. He received painful 
bruises about the legs and back.
