DA ItKIXGTON, W. NEWS
Well, here I corne again to give
you folks the news from our good
hitlc town. We have some snow
now, about two inches. It has
cleared off and is real cold at
night, but the days are pretty;
It won't be long before we will
be going back to logging and that
is what we want, we soon get tired
of doing nothing. I guess we will
be seeing some new Tarheels com
ing out this way this spring. They
always do as there are so many
good jobs when all the camps start
up in the spring. And from the
way it looks now it will be a good
year.
In spite of the winter weather,
there is lots of building being done. .
Burline Ashe will soon have a nice
home here in town finished. Alvin
Clayton is also building a nice
home, where he and Mrs. Clayton
will live when it is finished.
Alvin Clayton and Miss Geral
dine Wilbert were married Satur
day, January 10 at the Darrington
Baptist church with Rev. William
Breedlove officiating.
Mrs. Delia Larson of Seattle,
Wash, was maid of honor and Ro
bert Clayton served as his brother's
best man.
They left for a wedding trip to
Bellingham, Wash., Spokane, Wash,
and Vancouver, British Columbia.
This is the last one of the G. W.
Clayton's children to be married ?
five daughters and two sons.
I have just heard that Charley
Walker lost his home and every
thing, he had by fire.
All tjie old friends are getting
along fine and' I will be writing *
again soon. . ?
