Putnam Paragraphs

The negro that did the cutting in the little affray on Mr. T.W. Harvey’s
place a few days ago has, we learn, sought a healthier location. The negro
cut, since being sewed up by Mr. P.S. Stevens, is doing well.

Valter Stevens will teach here the present year. Valter was always a sharp
boy, and we do not doubt his success.

Jim Stokes’ promotion it seems will make it necessary to employ a boy and
buy a horn. Jim is one of the “cleverest fellows in the world” and we are
proud of his promotion.

We did not get the last issue of the Patriot, but notice that other papers
say that it reflects much credit on one of the best edited papers in the
state.

Will Stevens will attend school at Columbus.

W.B. Collum has returned from a visit to friends in Dooly County.

We learn there will be no school at Hopewell this year.

Mr. Williams’ mill dam has been rebuilt.

The farmers alliance of Schley County have elected P.W. Bridgers as county
agent.

Labor remains scarce, and hands continue going to the railroad.
