the entire community has been
shocked and saddened by the sudden

curred at an early hour Tuesday morn
ing. Mr. Millard had been apparent
ly well as usual on Monday, and work
ed out in the hot sun until very warm
fcnd very tirod, a circumstance which
perhaps hastened the end. He re
tired at the usual hour, and slept
until after three, when he awakened
Mrs. Millard, and asked for some sim
ple remedies to alleviate a feeling of
, pain and nausea, and while she was
ministering to him, he slipped sudden
ly away, life here ended and eterni
ty begun. While Mr. Millard's resi
dence here has hardly been long
enough to give him rank among the
; pioneers, it has been long enough to
! gather around him and his house
hold a large and ever increasing cir
j cle of devoted friends, all of whom
' sympathize deeply with Mrs. Millard
in the great sorrow that has fallen
: upon her and her children. In ad
dition to his devoted wife, three
daughters, Mrs. K. L. Butterfield of

Some Baseball.
! Yes, we had another game of ball
on Saturday, and with Federal Poinc.
When that bunch of six footers ar
rived it made our boys look like mid
gets We expected a trouncing; it
gave us the Charley Horse, cold and
creepy-like up our backs. The Fed
eral Point players seemed to be of
the same opinion, as they went to one
of the stores and got the largest sack
they could find and said they were
going to take the game home in it.
In the very first inning it looked as
if they would do so, for they scored
three times. But it takes nine inn
ings to complete a game, and some
times more. Our Florahome boys
are noted for dying game, and this
was no exception. Their nerve be
gan to return and they began to play
ball. We tied the score in the fourth
inning and got two to the good in
the fifth, which place we held until
the ninth, when Federal Point tied
the game. In the first half of the
tenth the visitors failed to score, and
our boys came across with the winn
ing run. There was joy in Flora
home, the dumps were traveling to
ward Federal Point. McGraff or
Florahome made a two-base hit
which was good for three runs, and
Haines also did some good work. Du
pont and Tenny were the Federal
Point battery, and Forsyth, Odell and
Haines were the same for Florahome.
Our next game will be with Putnam
Hall tomorrow, Saturday, the 27th.,
and on the Fourth of July we will
play the same club again at Grandin,
where they are planning a big picnic.
The ball boys gave an ice cream sup
per and dance in the evening and ev
ery one seemed to have a good time.
Mr. and Mrs. Fred Hubner made a
business trip to Gainesville on Thurs
day. G. C. Hardy and L. II. Bell were in
Putnam Hall on Wednesday.
Farmers are busy disposing of
