(From the file of July 15, 1898)
A beautiful catalogue of the
State Normal and Industrial college
at Greensboro has found its way to
our table. This institution seems to
be in a thoroughly prosperous condi
tion with 625 students receiving in
struction during the past year.
Among Brevard students we notice
Misses Chester and Lizzie B. Bell.
A little child of Silas McCrary of
Cedar Mountain had its arm broken
by a fall last Saturday. The new tele
phone line demonstrated its useful
ness on this occasion, as a mess-ge
to Dr. King saved the little I uw
some hours of suffering.
Mrs. Reuben- Ballard, who has
been quite seriously ill at her home
near Rocky Hill, is re.) .'led much
improved. Dr. M. M. King is in at
tendance.
Last week everybody was certain
the crops would all be burned up and
destroyed by drouth; this week they
are equally certain that everything
will be di owned out and destroyed.
The fact is Transylvania county has
never had a famine caused by a crop
failure and these who borrow trouble
on this account will have it to pay
back without interest. A disposition j
to find fault with the weather seems
to be inherent in some people.
Mrs. Knowles and Miss Gertrude
Knowles of Atlanta, who lost their
lives on the ill-fated French steam
ship Bourgone, were the wife and
daughter of a brother of W. H.
Knowles of Tampa, Fla., who is stop
ping with his family at Lynhurst, the
beautiful h>Jmo ef Hon. Thos. S.
Wood. It would seem impossible that
any irony of fate could connect Bre
vard, 400 miles from the sea and on
top of a mountain, with this horrible
disaster in any way.
A prominent wedding occurred
last Thursday, July 8, 1898, when
Misss Nettie Loftis and Charles B.
Heaver were united in marriage by
Rev. J. L. Wicker. A. T. Cooper acted
us best man and Miss Nina Beaver
as maid of honor. The day wil1 long
be remembered by many of our citi
zens for various reasons, the main
one heing that it rained and the
waters of Nicholson creek spread
over the bottom lands, forming a
barrier which separated the waiting
guests and impatient bride from the
principal actor in the drama the
groom. The time set fer the wedding
was 8 p. m. but the creek became im
passable and it was 9:30 before the
presence of the groom relieved the
anxiety of the bride and invited
gue-ts. But “All’s well that ends
well,” and the delayed ceremony was
happily consumated in due time. Mr.
Denver i- the storekeeper and gauger
at Cooper’s Laurel Valley distillery.
He is thif soil of W. M. Denver, Lsq.,
of Asheville, and he has made many
friends during his sojourn among us.
Miss Loftis has been reared among
, ur peopde. and fov a year or mole
has beep, an ornament to Brevard
soeietv. Among the invited guests at
the wedding the following were pres
ent to take part in the enjoyment of
the occasion: Major Wm. K. Bne?e
and daughter Bessie; Robert; T. W.
and Van Whitmire with their wives;
Mrs. Dr. Horton, Mrs. W. 1’. Whit
