The rarm and The Farmer By William R. Sanborn
A friendly bunch of farm neighbors' and members of the Odd Fellows lodge! at Jacksonburg made a day of it last week. They devoted the day to gath-1 ering corn for Will Brooks, a sick I neighbor, and there were so manv vol-! unteers to.- the task that when the1 evening shadows, fell the corn was all in crib and numerous chores all done. Mr. Brooks says he surely appreeH atcs ihe kindness of his neighbors and 1 is more than grateful for the assist-' anre so cheerfully rendered. Some of, the neighbor women visited the; Brooks' home that day and helped to serve a nice dinner to all in the party.; Our correspondent at Jacksonburr; I 'has kindly supplied us with the names' of the men who participated in this: neighborly act. Included in the listi we find the names of Isaac Brooks j and John Jarrett, father and father-in-law of the sick man, each of them! veterans who have passed their! eightieth milestones, but who are still! pretty active for their years. The! ladies who helped in the preparation! and serving of the bounteous farm'; dinner, were: Mrs. James Underwood.' Mrs. Spencer Get hers and daughter.! Hest?r. and Mrs. Joseph Brooks. Volunteer Corn Gatherers. After reading the list of names of the men who put in the day on the Brooks place, you will conclude thar the ladies had a busy time of it. Among those present we find the bes ! know n farmers in the Jacksonburg disi old Weidau. Park Sourbeer. Rufus Kinsinger, Frank Jacobs, John Jarrett and Isaac Brooks. !
