The latter part of last week
one or two citizens became very
boisterous in their denunciation
of the mayor, marshal and other
public men of our city and while
endulging in this railing the
mayor and his dogs started out
to capture the offenders. After
quite a lively chase one of the
belligerent parties was captured.
The mayor asked his name and
was told some fictitious name in
answer. As the mayor was “not
dressed up for company” he had
to let the “town crier” go with
the promise of appearing before
his highness the following morn
ing. The mayor if still looking
for him but as yet he hasn’t ar
rived.
Monday night the council of
McCrory met at the council room
at their regular meeting. The
old council wound up its unfin
ished business and a new council
was organized with the following
members, E. T. Wherry, Clayton
Hailey, C. W. McCrory and H. J.
Cariker, who were sworn in.
The following resignations were
tendered and accepted: W. N.
Simmons as marshal and A. D.
Stafford as alderman. A. D.
Stafford was then unanimously
chosen as the future marshal
and E. L. Hamilton was chosen
as alderman to take Stafford’s
place. The council then adjourn
ed subject to a call meeting by j
the mayor at which time che reg- j
ular committees will be appoint-!
ed.
Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Farris of
Munford, Tipton county, Tenn., j
came in Tuesday at noon and !
will spend some time visiting |
their relatives in our midst, j
Mr. and Mrs. Farris are the par- j
ents of Mrs. E. D. Marsh of Wi
ville. It was the pleasure of the !
writer to meet them while here i
and he was very favorably im
pressed with them as being jolly,
good natured people and
although quite advanced in age
their actions cause them to ap
pear much younger than they
really are. Mr. Farris said
when he arrived here he expect
ed to see little dried up folks but
the first two men he saw were
E. D. Marsh and our little broth
er E. C. and judging from those
two little fellows he came to the
conclusion that Woodruff county
must be a prettjr healthful place
after all.
