GEORGE WRIGHT IPSTEOPATH Successor to Dr. Tebeau PatteVon Building r " OLD TIMERS " (By Patsy O'Brien) "My heart's in the Highlands where- ever I go. Farewell to the Highlands, farewell to the North, The birthplace cf valour, the country of worth; Wherever I wander, wherever I rove, The hills of the Highlands forever I love. farewell to the mountains high cov er'd with snow; Farewell to the straths and the green valleys below ; Farewell to the forests and wild-hanging woods; Farewell to the torrents and loue pouring floods. "My heart's in the Highlands, where ever I go. Robert Burns. As the "fount of eternal youth' wooed Ponce de Leon to the new world, so the price and quantity of land has wooed many a Britisher to merica. The possesion of land is a consuming passion with "Old Eng land's" sons. They think in hundreds of acres while the American laughs at his brother's eccentricities and is con tent with enough ground to bury him. When we stop to think of it we are no longer astonished at finding so many Scotch names through these mountains, where but in the mountains would the "canny Scotchman" feel at home? It needs but very little scrat ching of the surface to bring forth many interesting tales of these imi grants. Among the old aettiers that have come and gon -we fm l in toe group of Scotch names MacLaughli.: as the first. In 1845 Mr. MacLaughliM came from Cleveland, Ohio, 'Jowa thro afci the valleys of the Allo&hanv Mountains, over the Great Smokies, until on the southern slope with the Blue Ridge towering on all sides he came to a halt. It is said the great brawny Scotchman wept like a baby when he uluuuu ami tll vvl, luv x.uilxx a.u the blue of the mountains merging into the blue of the sky. "Ah, he is reported' to have said, "they are jusi likp the braw hielands of bonnie , stand. We have the precise idiom ; we Scotland. . say : 'May I peak to my mother-in- He stayed and the place that is ,aw before j w-n dQ thig thln&.. That now owned by Mrs. Seigling was his SOunded rather like a joke to the trans home. Fashioned after the Scottish lator, but it wasn't, for in that land of castles it resembled the homes of the strange taboos, one of the unpardon feudal lords in the "old countrie." It able sins is for a man to open his Hp? . , . , to his wife's mother. Boston Trans- is much changed and modernized, now, cripk With Mr. McLaughlin came Mrs. i Jgaird a true Scotch woman. She hv-1 ed for a time in the little house on Main street on the property of the! Pine Grove Lodge, later came Mr. Baird, who bought a place near where Osceola Inn stands today. . Mrs. Baird's last years were spent with a nephew Mr. JOhn Waddel on the Wi:- low road, she was well known ana j loved in this community and mourn ea by many -when she died. One Scotchman in a place will act as a magnet, and so we are not sur prised to find that in 1858 . another Scotchman, by the name of Connell, came to this valley straight from Stir ling Scotland, which is at the head of the Firth of Forth not very far from Glasgow. Mr. Connell became the manager of Mr. Mlneuz beautiful place called Brooklands, and twelve years later brought out his fiance and thus established himself here. A few years later he left Brooklands and went up the Davidson River but in 1889 he came back and bought the Singleton place known as Hillside where he lived until his feeble health necessitated a change of life, when he went to live with one of his sons. Mra. Connell is still living a delightful little Scotch lady who loves these mountains as she did the mountaiaa of her childhood home. C The next few years rolled by with out any more additions to the little Colony, but in 1871 Mr. Finnily came out with his thirteen children anc bought a thousand acres on the Wil low road. On the place stands the ruins of the double log cabin where he lived, and before the door stand two Laburnum trees which he brought with him from Scotland. On the side of the mountain .where a rushing stream tumbles headlong into .the val ley below stands an old mill; moss covers the roof and hangs in long ropes from the wheel. It is dark un der the pines and the desolate place holds an air of mystery. Some of his children still live on parts of he big ilace, but the gruff hard-featured old Scotchman has long been gathered to his forefathers.' About the same time that Mr. Fin nily came out, the call of the land sounded in The ears of a Mr. Cal houn, and he packed his belongings and came out to the new world. His place adjoined Mr. Finnily's and the j two Scotchmen sDent much time to-f gether over their cups telling tales of' many years, as his health failed ana I was forced to retire to ."bonnie Scot- land.'? . , " - The ' siren next sounded 'to Mrs. Dorothy Morris, a wealthy Scotch wi dow whose home was in Cleveland. She with her parents, Squire Price and his wife, came down. Mrs. Mor ris bdushf in 1S75 the to beautiful estates known as Piedmont and Beau mont on the Littla River Road. The big stone house of Piedmont with its back against the mountain commands a wonderful view while the winding drive slips in and out of the wooas. The place was built by Mr. C. C. Pinkney and is now owned by Mrs. H. I. Middleton who has improved it a creat deal. The quaint old house of Beaumont has seen troublesome days. Many refugees were harbored there during the war, and a Mr. Johnston was killed at dinner by bush whackers. But gay and happy folks have since danced through the wide doors and Scotch lads and lasses have watched the great logs burning in the huge firelaces. The spiral stairs, the odd little windows, and the tiny court in the center of the house are remin iscent of the times when the house was built. It is picturesque if not convenient. When Mrs. Morris own- td Beaumont it was a rugged place, and great gnarled trunks of trees ob structed the view of the mountains. Mrs. Frank Haynes who owns it now has changed the Scottish atmosphere that brooded over the place and made it the finest show place here with its formal paths and sunken Italian Gar dens. Mrs. Barrows on the Clear Creek road is a niece of Mrs. Morris, but the rest now live in Cleveland. A few of the descendants of these Scots still live in the neighborhood but th? old folks have all gone, some back to the "bonnie" fatherland but most of them lie in the land of their adoption. They were hard working souls and left no monument but their well tilled acres behind them. I Married Men. Read This. A translator of the BiWe into tne New Guinea tongue wanted a proper idiom for the phrase, "Far be it from me to do this thing." He consulted a Iculueu v"u icyueu, Uuu- Editor's Joke. A budding author sent a humor ous paragraph to the editor of a daily paper. Not finding it printed within a reasonable time or hearing from the editorial department, he wrote to in quire about it. "I sent you a joke about ten days hgo. I have heard nothing respecting its safe receipt and should be glad" to hear whether you have seen it." The editor's reply was as follows: "Your joke arrived safe ly, but upto the present we' have not seen It. ADMINISTRATORS NOTICE Having qualified! as administrator of the estate oi J. T.
