He said he had 46 grand children and 37gfeat grand children. Rev. NeSmith has been a minister of the gospel 41 years and as. long as health and physical strength would permit was an ac tive Missionary Baptist preacher going and serving many of the churches in his county, Lawrence; as well as in Colbert and Franklin. He makes an average of reading 28 chapters of the Bible now each week and is a regu lar attendant at Sunday school each Sunday morning.

Does he miss it? He is urged by his supposed friends to be a good fellow to spend his money, to have a good time. If he should analyze the motives of the men who urge him to be a good fellow he would find that they are profiting by his own folly, that he is spending their money for their enjoyment. A good fellow is a good thing. The postmaster at Hawthorn has found out this truth. B.e had five cents lft.

Now let him depend upon the people who helped him spend the $3,000 in poamg as a good fellow and see what they wilt givo himr The good fellow is in jail.
