AN OLD SLAVE DEAD
Sulphur Rock, Mch. 3. — On
February 28 passed away another
of those men, whose existence and
transportation to this country as
early as 1609, caused the bloodiest
tragedy the world has ever wit
nessed, the Civil War. Jack Mer
riwether was this slave’s name.
“Uncle Jack,’’ his common name
among all who knew him, was
born March 1, 1816. He spent
nearly ail his life in Independence
county, being owned first, as a
slave, by McGuire. Afterwards he
j was sold to Bill Meriwether a well
known citizen of this county. He
was the property of the last men
tioned till the Emancipation.
Uncle Jack was strong, robust,
jubilant andbest of all fair-minded.
It was interesting, (as the writer
i has experienced,) to hear him tell
| stories, and true ones, of those
horrible days known to us as the
“Reconstruction Period.”
Just a few more years and we
can hear no longer the deeds done
by these black men who so val
iantly protected some of our fath
ers and mothers.

WILL TOM QUIT, TOO?
And now comes the Hon. Tom
1 Campbell, of Pochahontas, and
says he wants to occupy the seat
now held by Billy Oldfield in Con
gress. After looking over the
field, Mr. Campbell will probably
come to the same conclusion as
did Judge Lankford and Judge
Humphries, gracefully withdraw
from the contest. — White County

DON’T BORROW SORROW
FROM TOMORROW
When the sun is bright,
And the skies are blue,
And the day looks glad,
As the days oft do,
And the birds sing with a charm,
Don’t shadow the light
That shines in view,
Grow gloomy and sad,
As some often do
In'fear of a coming storm.
Some fear the rain,
That never will fall,
And look for troubles,
That never will call,
Theythink they will call,tomorrow, j
They look with spirits
Both sore and sad.
They trouble with trouble
They never have had,
And out of it build their sorrow.
Be glad for the good,
That comes your way,
Be glad for the sun,
That shines today,
And makes the old earth warm.
Don’t dread the cloud,
That may rise tomorrow,
Dread is the road,
That leads to sorrow.
Hope, gives the world its charm.
Hope and the world looks bright,
Dread and the world looks blue,
Hope and your heart grows light,
Dread and the world dreads you.
Dope, there’s a God above you,
His promise is broad and true,
Hope and the world will loveyou,
And heaven will swing in view.
— J. L. Brown.
