Rose has been in correspondence with parties in Wyoming who desired to come south. Mr. Rose has sent them much information about Cumberland county. Several months ago he received a letter from them saying that if they could dispose of their holdings 10 Wyoming that they would come to Cumberland county. They are now on Qeir way here, quite a colony Mr. Rose thinks. The following letter was received this morning: r t Gehring, Neb., Nov. 23. A. Hose.

Nimocks received a telegram his morning from Lawrence, Mississippi, announcing the death in that city at 5 A. M. of his brother, Dr. F. B. Nimocks. Mr. Nimocks will leave this afternoon to attend the funeral. The deceased, who was in his forty seventh year, had been ill for a long time and his death was not unexpected. Dr. Nimocks, though not a resident of Fayetteville, had often visited here and has many friends in the com munity who will grieve to learn of his death. The deceased leaves two daugh ters who once lived in Fayetteville, and are pleasantly remembered, Misses Addie and Carrie Nimocks. Court Notes. The case of Bryant Wright against the Southern Express Company was given to the jury Wednesday evening. They were out all night, butiyesterday morning they had reached a decision. They found in favor of the complainant giving him $25 damages. The suit was for $1,000. The case of Smith against Brady for slander was called this morning, but on account of the illness of the defendant the case was postponed. The case of Jno. Hatwood against the city of Fayetteville will probably come up tomorrow. Hatwood is suing the city for seventy dollars paid in taxes to the city for a number of years, whereas it has lately been discovered that his property was not in the city at all. The city's defense will be that Hatwood, though not actually living within the city limits, yet has voted and enjoyed the privileges of a citizen. The whole case is merely a ques tion cf law, the fact that he has not been a resident of Fayetteville being admitted. A new survey was taken of the city limits and Hatwood s property was found to be ten feet from the town line. Thankssirluff Iar Services. There were no Thanksgiving seivices at the Baptist church, but at the regular prayer meeting service last night a collection amounting to $8.80 was taken up for the Thomasville Orphanage. At the Presbyterian church yesterday a tremendous congregation heard an excel lent sermon by the pastor, Rev. A. J. Mc Kelwav. The collection for the Orphans' Home amounted to $52, besides $100 raised for a new building at the Home. Appropriate Thanksgiving Day services wore held at the Methodist church yester day, and the congregation contributed $25 to the Oxford Orphanage. Rev. Dr. Nash preached a sermon which delighted his congregation. Thanksgiving Day at St. John's Church was observed with great spirit and enthu 5iam vesterdav. The chancel was beau tif ullv decorated and adorned with flowers, autumn leaves, fruit and vegetables. The mass of coloring was exquisitely and strik ingly beautiful; the music was splendid, and the sermon was from the text: "Every good and perfect gift cometh down from the Father." and was after the Rev. Rec tor's best style. The Holy Communion was celebrated and a large number of communicants received. After service a bountiful dinner was served in the school room. Over one hun dred persons were given a substantial meal, and then there was enough left over to distribute to each one present a good supply to take to their own homes, which was done to their great delight. The collection was for the Thompson orphanage in Charlotte and amounted to $50. Fox Hunt. A number of young ladies and gentle men started out fox hunting at G o'clock yesterday morning and returned at noon bringing a brush, having had a most excit ing chase. Jno. Oehiltree Dead. Jno. Ochiltree, a very old and most worthy colored man, died in this city at 8 o'clock this morning. He was the faithful sexton of the Presbyterian Church for nearly forty years, and for the past three or four years (since his health began to fail) has been sexton emeritus. Peace to this good old man's ashes. Fine Sport Yesterday. Messrs. Leighton Huske, J. C. Thomson and Bailey Evans carried off the Cumber land hunting honors yesterday. They bag ged 47 partridges and numerous other small game. They report that just as the sun was setting they got in the midst of what seemed to be a field literally alive with quail. A conservative estimate they say of the number would be 500. They think that it would have required a wagon to have brought the game home if dark ness had not overtaken them. Messrs. R. W. Bidgood, Alex. Campbell, E. L. and H. M. Pemberton carried off the Fayetteville honors abroad. They went up the road in a private car. Messrs. E. L. and H. M. Pemberton got off at Goldston and hunted in that vicinity, together bag ging sixty birds. Messrs. Bidgood and Campbell hunted in the neighborhood of Siler City and bagged thirty. Ninety par tridges is a splendid total for four guns. A number of other sportmen report good shooting and altogether it is safe to say that between four and five hundred par tridges were brought home by Fayetteville sportsmen yesterday. There were several squirrel hunts but from all accounts the squirrels made them selves scarce. People and Their Movements. Mr. Jack Gaster attended the foot ball game at Richmond yesterday. Miss Maggie Rose, of the Red Springs Institute, is spending a few days at home. Miss Alice Green, or Wilmington, who has been visiting Miss Kate Alderman on Russell street returned home Wednesday evening. Dr. McDufiie, accompanied by Mr. Nash Bunting, left last night for Baltimore to consult physicians there. We hope that whon he returns it will be with renewed health. Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Bidgood went ' to Richmond Wednesday night to spend the Thanksgiving holidays. Misses Kate Fairley, Kate Underwood, Maggie McNeill and May William? spent Thanksgiving with Miss Janie Fairley at Manchester. Last evening a number of young ladies and gentlemen were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Walter L. Holt on Haymount at one of the most delightful entertainments of the season.
