Last Tuesday, while at Mrs. Gibson’s, near Newburg, we were shown a silk handkerchief that has a history., In 1822, two young-tnen, the Gilchrist brothers, were residing hi Scotland. In that year one of them emigrated to America and later on settlted in Deeatur county. Ind. Before leaving the old country he gave this handkerchief as a memento and keepsake to his brother, who later on settled in London, England. The one coming to America died 2>> years ago, leaving a widow and several children, among them Mrs, Joe Burney. Now, this handkerchief that landed here last Tuesday was the one that changed hands. 70 years ago. It now comes to the children as an heirloom and memento of their dead father.. It is made of the best of silk, and in size is one yard long and. three-fourths wide. The colors are orange and brown, and a&bright and new a* when first made., Messrs. Freeman Barker and Marion Stewart, assisted by sue or-two others who also like to see everything neat and in good repair, have been cleaning off; the Hawcreek graveyard this. week. We think it no more than, right for those who have relatives buried theae to pay; these gentlemen something, for what they have done. We have “chipped in” ourselves and want others to follow our. emtaplfli.
