Mrs. Mamie
ALEXANDER had one nigh of closing exercises of her music class, the other suspended. The exercises last Thursday evening, were given by Misses Helen
FUDGE and Nannie LESLIE, senior members of Mrs. ALEXANDER'S class. There was a large crowd of Tazewell's best people, and the young ladies acquitted themselves well, showing careful training and much proficiency in their studies. Mrs.
ALEXANDER has been teaching in Tazewell for five years and needs no commendation. She is a faithful, conscientious and successful teacher, and lady of most excellent Christian character. She will continue her class during the summer, commencing about June 1st. Those desiring to avail themselves of this opportunity should see Mrs.
ALEXANDER at once and arrange to begin at the beginning. In the exercises Tuesday night, Mr. W.H.
ALDERSON, violinist, and Miss Edith WHITMAN, vocalist, added greatly to the enjoyment of the
occasion.
On last Friday the 5-year-old son of John BURTOR, who lives near North Tazewell, met with an accident, which resulted in his death on Saturday. The little fellow was with his father and older brother, who were preparing to drag a piece of cloddy ground. The horses became frightened, and by some means the heavy drag, weighing about 70 pounds, fell on the little boy, fracturing the skull. Drs.
CROCKETT and HALL did everything possible for the little sufferer, but he died on Saturday. Tommie was a bright little boy, and his sad death nearly broke the hearts of his parents, who have the sympathy of their neighbors.
