Monday marked the first shipment of cotton from the
Herring-Barnard gin at Doby Springs when four loads of the
staple all ready for the mills left here for the rail read. These
wagons had on them 11230 pounds of as fine cotton as ever grew
in this country and the boys have already sold for a good figure.
Just the price received we were unable to astertain and the only
price we heard mentioned was $1250. for the shipment.
It is a good showing for the boys any way as they have
been buying all the cotton that was offered and have never turned
away a single pound nor asked a person to hold their cotton on
account of the money panic. '
the gin people here were buying office Monday and said that they

Thursday while .setting to
thresh cain for Joe Gibson fire
dropped from the engine in
some way and set fire to
grass. The wind carried
head fire a litte to one side the
stacks. Cal Fleming who was
running the edgine made a quick
run to get the seperator. Both
Cal and the fire seemed to have
the same object in view and met
at the statk, Cal and the engine
between the stack with the fire
lapping down over the top. The
boyS fastened a cable to the sep-
erator and Cal got away with the
machine. Results :-seven hun-
dred bushel of cain seed gone,
seperator and engine badly blis-
tered, Fleming minus a shirt
plus a number of bums and a
blistered ear—Altogether it was
a lively "time—So far as we have
learned no other serious damage
was done.
