Mr. Roy LEE fell off the tipple,
yesterday afternoon, that is under construction, a distance of 20 feet receiving a bad cut
on the top of his head, which necessitated several stitches. Dr. COMBS was
the attending physician.
Miss Ada HARRIS, stenographer, came down from Bluefield this afternoon to
recuperate. She has been working both day and night. Will spend a few days with her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Milton HARRIS.
Mrs. M.J. STURGILL visited Mrs. Albert MAXWELL in Bluefield Sunday and
Monday. Mrs. MAXWELL continues ill.
Mrs. W. B. STEELE and daughter, Miss Uva, visited her mother, Mrs. J. Marion MCGUIRE
and family at Cedar Bluff Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. C.T. FIELDS and baby, Mary Virginia,
were also guests.
Mr. N.O. GILLESPIE spent the week end with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. John GILLESPIE,
at Witten's Mills. Newt, who is a great "run-about", motored in the right
direction that time, and his machine, from her honker quoted in loud clarion tones,
through the stillness of the mountains: "Honor thy father and mother."
Messrs. Charles and Tom ROBINETT, of Waverly, Ohio who were
called home on account of the serious illness of their sister, Mrs.
William CALDWELL, arrived too late to see
her alive, she having passed away four hours previous.
Mr. Grover Cleveland SHAMBLIN, Chief of Police of this place, went to Richlands
today. The Chief is good at extracting the dough of criminals, so everybody had better
look sharp. R.M. SPARKS went to Richlands this afternoon.
Mr. Aaron RUSSELL, of Indian, was a business visitor here yesterday. He's looking
well, about as fat as a chicken's forehead.
W. B. STEELE is shearing sheep this week: R.K. GILLESPIE and George HURT
sheared last week, each has a large flock. D.C. LOWE, road supervisor, was the guest of W.B. STEELE Saturday.
