“Old Hickory,” a local correspondent from Ferrellsburg in Lincoln County, West Virginia, offered the following items, which the Lincoln Republican printed on Thursday, March 14, 1912:

The Monitor has accused God Almighty of being partial toward the County Road Engineer; Democrats who have contracts on the roads of “voting right” and a “Hill Billy” lawyer with an “operatic voice” of writing an article signed “Duval” “Sweet Magnolia of Savanah!” We knew the Engineer was on the Lord’s side, but never dreamed of the good Lord being partial. Well, who comes next?

Chapman Adkins, of Big Hart, was here on business Saturday.

Jerry Lambert was here bidding on the roads Saturday.

Miss Velva Dial is contemplating attending school at Hamlin this spring.
