Daily Courier Gazette,
January 22, 1912
Personal mention of People
You Know by Our Field Man.
A. H. Hartline
of Red Oak, Ellis county has recently located near Renner, this county. We
are glad to furnish him a first-class paper, and there is no better medium
than the Democrat-Gazette for disseminating news, county and local and the
dollar turned over to us will prove to be one of the best investments he
never made.
R. L. Farrell
lives in the Cotton Wood community and has been reading the Democrat-Gazette
for ten years or more. Was married in 1902 to Miss Dicie Whisenant, daughter
of the late Mrs. Lura B. Whisenant, whose demise occurred at her home near
Parker one month ago. Three children are the fruits of this union. Miss
Beulah Whisenant, sister to Mrs. Farrell, makes her home with them since the
death of her mother. With a clean bank check, he renewed his subscription
which we appreciate.
T. L. Moore a
young and prosperous farmer of Lebanon renews for the Democrat-Gazette and
Dallas News at our clubbing rate of $1.75 for both papers one year. Good
friends make us happy.
T. E. Hogge
lives half a mile west of the Stinson school house. His realty in Collin
county consists of one hundred acres of black dirt, and mighty black at
that, with improvements much better than usually found on our farms; another
tract of eighty acres in Hall county and one mile north of Lake View, he
considers on of the best farms in that section. In 1893, life by himself was
a dull proposition and when he made love-signs to Miss Beulah Wallis she was
eating bonbons and chocolates from a persistent rival. Eudathan couldn't
sleep soundly but realized that if he didn't get busy the other fellow
would, and the quickest way was too slow, requesting the parson to press the
button. Five children, all boys, the youngest making his advent six weeks
ago. The Democrat-Gazette has been going to the Hogge home for several years
but it was quite natural for us to use our knife on a scalp that is so fresh
from the west. The dollar will push his figures way up in '14.
R. L. Howard
passes himself for a young man but it is a well known fact that he has lived
near Harrington Chapel forty-five years, and then some, but he is such a
good friend that we won't state his exact age. He married Miss Dora Angel
who is a cousin of Mrs. Tom W. Perkins and the Senator has no truer friends
than they. Mr. Howard's subscription goes back to the time when, over twenty
years ago, Senator Perkins was editor and publisher of the Wylie Rustler.
Thanks for the dollar on renewal.
FOREST GROVE.
J. H. Scroggins,
principally reared in this community, ten years ago was fortunate in winning
the heart and hand of Miss Fannie Dodd and the family has since been
augmented by the advent of three boys. On the public highway and in the
presence of G. F. Kirby our scalping knife removed the thin spot from the
top of his head and our fee in such cases in only one dollar. Fifty-two
applications of the Democrat-Gazette is guaranteed to cure with nothing
refunded if the balm proves "faky."
