B. TABOR , a worthy young man of Falls Mills, and his neighbor H. A. GREEN. Green is not what his name indicates, not withstanding he is not a subscriber to the News. We turn the gentleman over to Alex, who will labor with him, and keep general oversight over him. (W. B. Tabor-I am uncertain, however, Ballard Witten Tabor. I realize his initials would have been B. W. Tabor. However, I find no W. B. Tabor in 1900 or 1920 Tazewell Co., VA Census. I believe H. A. Green to have been Hugh A. Green as an article in the "Clinch Valley News’" of May 1, 1908, stated that Hugh Green and his son Fred, are on a visit to see relatives in Tennessee. I BELIEVE Alex was Alex Tabor. Alex Tabor was kidded so much, by the editor of the "Clinch Valley News" , and Alex did live in Falls Mills, VA).
