The Georgia Enterprise July 4, 1889
~Mr. E. L. Jarman will spend the summer at Scotland, Ga.

~Mr. W. A. Norton is recovering from a serious spell of sickness.

~Mr. N. C. Lee has a fine looking crop on his Norton place, between town and 
Cedar Shoals.

~Judge John P. Harris is proving himself a public benefactor by encouraging the 
culture of grass and the saving of hay.

~Mr. P. W. Warren says he had cotton blooms on June 20th, and now has many 
bolls in his 100 acre patch near town.

~Elder Jno. F. Almand, of Conyers, preached an interesting sermon at Holly 
Spring Primitive Baptist church Sunday last.

~U. S. Marshal Nelms has resigned but will hold his office until October. 
Wonder who will be the Deputy Marshal down this way?

~Mr. Wm. Johnson was jolted out of his wagon Sunday and the wheels passed over 
his body, bruising him slightly but not hurting him seriously. He will drive a 
little slower hereafter.

~Mr. R. C. Cook, of Wyatt district and one of the most progressive farmers and 
merchants in the county, tells us that crops are not looking well up his way.

~Miss Annie Purifoy, a cultured and charming young lady from Monticello, has 
been on a visit to Covington as the welcome guest of Miss Loudie and Lottie 
Hendrick.

~The election of Col. Capers Dickson, as an alumni director of Emory college, 
was a deserved compliment to a most worthy gentleman. Col. Dickson loves old 
Emory with a devotion that knows no change and will do all in his power to 
promote its every interest.

~Messrs. T. C. Swann and E. P. Carr expect to leave for the Paris Exposition on 
Saturday next. They intend to visit many points of interest in the old world 
during their 40 days absence from home and loved ones here. We wish them a 
healthy happy time abroad and a safe return to dear old Covington.
