REMINGTON ITEMS.

Rev, Combs, who has been occupying the pulpit"' of the Presbyterian church every alternate Sabbath for two ©r three months past, preached his f&iewell sermon to his congregation hist Sunday evening. Other interests and the condition of his health necessitated the step. Large quantities of ice more or less clear and dense have been stored by different parties, Geo. Ilcileg has placed 85 tons in his ice house. Denham & Broadie, Cheek & Rich, W. A. Traugh and possibly others have also made ample preparation for tempering the heat of next summer. The school meeting last Wednesday night was fairly well attended. A number of our prominent men are determined that the new school house shall materialize over the head of every opposition. So mote it be. Rev. E. B. Woodson filled Presiding Elder Smith’s apjxrintment at Mt. Ayr last Sunday. Sickness in Dr. Smith’s family prevented him from being present. It is thought that Dr. Wells the evangelist, will come to Remington and begin a series of meetings in the Presbyterian church, ifithiu the next two or three weeks. The Fantasma last Friday night moved-off like clock work. It was well attended and much enjoyed by all present. Mr. and Mrs. Larry Clowery liavo another daughter since Wednesday of last week. O. B. Me Intire, M. G. Traugh and others started for Alabama Tuesday morning.
