J*" \ FRANKLINTON PERSONS ENTER TAIN SID flOLDEN WITH O'POS SI'M CHASE ON MASON STREET I Little did Sid Holden dream of the j entertainment before him when he Journeyed from Loulsburg over to Franklinton on Wednesday night to see something of city life. No train was passing and the enter- I tainment committee, composed of Fred i Morris, Chief Strother and Hugh Mc-i Ghee, were at a loss as to entertaining the visitor when suddenly their prob lem was solved. A majestic o'possum stalked down the streets of our busy metropolis and rounded the corner at Mrs. M. C. Henley's Btore. Disregarding all laws as to hunt ing possum out of season, the enter tainers and their guest gave chase. The fun lasted for several minutes un til Mr. Holden, as befits an honor guest, caught the varmint and put him in Robert's chicken coop. Now, it would seem proper tha^the prize should have gone to the guest, particularly. Inasmuch as he had made the capture. Perhaps It was Intend ed that such should be the case. Rut the hosts reckoned without George Harrow, a Franklinton merchant, who as soon as all was quiet made a raid on the coop and carried the o'possum home. ? Mr. Harrow claims that he was aided and abeted by one, Tommy Joyner, and that the 'possum kept him up with his noise anyhow. And he Is looking forward to a fine meal. But he reckons without Chief Btroth er who said yesterday that as soon as his friend, Mr. Barrow, had the creature good and fat and In nice con dition that he was going to serve claim and delivery papers on him. It Is not yot known where Mr. Hol den comes in. ? Franklinton News. A anccMsful man always rung thlDga, he never walks them.
