Joseph Low Tells of Some Interesting Scenes and Customs in Georgia—Forgotten Here
The following letter from Joseph Low. now at Yaldosta, Georgia, contains interesting information concerning scenes and customs of the turpentine belt of Georgia. The letter follows: "Yaldosta. Ga., Jan. 10. 1912. "Editor Greenfield Daily Reporter: "I am lonesome without your paper, and although we are often on the move, we wish you to send the paper to our present address for six weeks, unless otherwise advised. We came to Yaldosta. January 2d, to find it quite a nice-looking city I of perhaps 15,000 inhabitants, in the southern part of the state, and lo
cated between the Gulf of Mexico
quently. we have a damp air all the time, but have had an overdose for the last month, as it has rained at least two-thirds of the time. "They have splendid railroad facilities here—four roads and twen-ty-four trains out daily, and the people surely should be good from the looks of the many churches, four magnificent buildings and four smaller ones two large school buildings for ihe while children, and one for the colored children. The postofiice building is owned by the government, a large two-story steel brick and concrete structure, the finest building in the city. Only one street car line in the city, and 21 lines extend from the main part, of town, two miles out to Pine Park. Some connect with another short line that goes to the cotton and gin mills, which I hope to visit next week. "As we came down here from Thomasville, we passed through several turpentine camps. The orchards. as they are called, have not been opened yet this season. They will be more interesting when the sap begins to drip. They use oxen in these camps and also the lumber camps It reminds me of my boyhood days to see those teams. Another old-timer is the wray they
harness their horses. A collar,
hames, broad back-band, the trace chains, rope line outside, rope or strap on inside, fastened to each bridle bit. When a farmer is asked how largo a farm he is working he answers '4-horse or 10-horse' as the case may be, meaning 40 or 100 acres, as they count 10 acres to the horse here. Small mule teams sell from $400 to $450 and up cowrs, $60 to $100 timothy hay, $33 and cow pea hay, $30 per ton corn from 65 to 75c per bushel. I saw a load sell on the streets at 65 cents per bushel in the shuck, 75 lbs. to the bushel, and it was a very inferior quality at that. I consider this a highpriced place to live. There is much business going on. Three large brick buildings are going up, one a seven-story for hotel purposes, put up by the railroad company,, and several other smaller houses are under construction. "This climate failed to agree with Sadie, and she and Gladys left for Danville, 111., last Monday. Hoping this letter will be of some interest to my many friends, I will close. "Joseph Low." 209 Toombs St., Yaldosta, Ga.
Takes Traveling Position. Paul Jackson left Monday for Danville, 111., where he has taken a position as traveling salesman for the United States Oil Company. His territory is through Kentucky, Illinois and Michigan. Next Sunday he will stop off at Chicago and will attend the auto show.

here. I am one
of Old Hancock's boys and would like to hear from you people. I have been in Dakota two years and know something about the country. I came here and worked for Harry Banker in 1910. and I like the place fine, but would like to see some of my old friends like Mr. Rees and Mrs. Banker Bennett, and many more I could mention. Also Mr. and Mrs. Harry Banker, of Wilkinson. "Dakota is a pretty big state, and also a cold one just now. This is 10 p. m., and the thermometer is 44 belowr tonight. That is the coldest since I have been here, but we can keep warm just the same. I live four miles from town. We go to town three or four times a week, and it don't seem so cold, as it is a still dry cold that is not so bad as a damp cold. I haven't seen my old friend, Henry Reasoner this winter. He lives about twenty miles north of here. He has a fine farm and is making money. I don't go to Redfield very often. "Yours truly, "Joseph TilliSon, Jr."

David Mclntyre is Looking For Sherman Parker. W ho Passed Bad Paper, it is Claimed.
An account of a forgery from Gwynneville, in which the same name appears as the one given by the young man who attempted to pass a $12.50 check on Sanford Snodgrass here, was' published in Monday's Rushville Daily Republican. The story follows:
The Gwynneville community has on its hands a forgery incident that is out of the ordinary, the accused being Sherman Parker, age 21, ofj near Greenfield, who had been employed by Jesse and Leroy Dyer onl their farm south of town. Just now! Parker cannot be located. Last! week he appeared at the David Mclntyre store at Gwynneville and asked Mr. Mclntyre lo cash a small check for him. The cheek was in the sum of $1.50 and was made payable to Mr. Parker and signed by Jesse Dyer. Knowing Mr. Parker had worked for Mr. Dyer. Mr. Mclntyre did not hesitate to cash the check as the young man's excuse was that he did not wish to wait for the bank to open. Later, when the check was presented at the bank, it was found to bear Hie date of December 4. 1012. This discovery excited suspicion and Mr. Dyer was communicated with. He said he had not given any check to the young man and that it was very likely a forgery. Mr. Mclntyre has made diligent inquiry regarding the whereabouts of Parker, but has not been able to find him. It is said the offender is inclined to trickery and that Mr. Mclntyre will prosecute the case unless his loss is immediately made good.

A letter from J. Oscar Parkr-r. who went to Scott county. Kansas, a year ago to live, contains quite a lively rabbit story.

The people hunt at night as well as in the day time, watching around their alfalfa stacks and Mr. Parker says he has killed twenty-seven rabbits in one night, others killing even more. One hunting party went out and returned with 621 rabbits and the scalps of 239 more. The county commissioners paid the bounty on 00.000 rabbits for the quarter ending December 3lst. and for 10.000 for the preceding quarter. Mr. Parker says the thermometer has registered eighteen degrees below zero there.

BY DAVID S. GOODING
Interesting Xotes From His Diary of Year 1855—Recalls Early Scenes and Conditions.
Among some old books and papers purchased at the sale of personal property several years ago of the late David S. Gooding, was his diary of the year 1855. This diary concerns even is of fifty-six years ago, or "before the war" times, when now thriving cities in Indiana were but villages of scattered houses and possibly a tavern. The paragraph stories in this valuable diary make most interesting reading for all and will cause the older people to recall many scenes and incidents of long ago that they have probably forgotten for many years. Pages taken at random from this diary contain the following notes concerning Mr. Gooding: "January 1, 1855. David S. Gooding at Anderson. Opened Common Pleas Court at 10 o'clock a. m. "January 4. Left Anderson for home via Indianapolis lodged at Wright House, and bought 'Sedgwick on Damages' and U. S. Digest. 1853. $15. Came home in cars. "Thursday, January 11.

"Tuesday, Oct. 7. At home and voted Democratic. "Monday, Oct. 24. At Indianapolis stopped at Bates House. "Monday, Dec. 17. Met Judge Stephen A. Douglas, at Indianapolis. "Christmas, 1855. At home at my farm."
1
It is noticed that every Sunday during the year, no matter where he wras, Judge Gooding attended M. E. church and Sunday school.
These items from the year's history of Mr. Gooding shows him to have been a very busy man in the large affairs of life. Many of these items could be enlarged upon and would make a story w-ithin themselves. For instance, the old Seminary mentioned will be remembered by the older people, as standing on South Pennsylvania street in fact blocking what is now the roadway.
The farm he spoke of, where he spent Christmas was south of this city, and he lived there. Rev. Mr. Stabler, whom he heard at Anderson, is the father of Mrs. A. P. Conklin, and many years after the date named in the above item, was pastor of the M. E. church here, and his last years were spent with his son-in-law and daughter, in this city.
Mr. Gooding was 31 years old on
Saturday. January 20, 1855. and had he lived, his 88th birthday would have fallen on the same day of the week this year, or Saturday, January 20. 1912.
While many pictures of Mr. Gooding are owned in Greenfield, probably the best one. a painting, hangs in the office of John H. Binford. who was a close personal friend of the honored judge and politician. This picture was painted in 1871. Mr. Gooding posing in the building west of the courthouse where he had his itice quarters. It was painted when he was 47 years old, and everyone who sees it says it is the best likeness of Mr. Gooding they have ever seen. It was presented to Mr. Binford by Marshall Gooding, after the death of his father, and is prized very highly by Mr. Binford.
