Granger Grist.
From the Times.
Mr. Tom Puckett and Miss Evie
Davis, who live a few miles east
of Granger were married one day
last week.
Mr. and Mrs. Mark Tones made
a short visit to Mrs. Jones' broth-
er, Dr. John Threadgill of Okla-
homa City, this week. Mr. Jones
says the winter is too cold for him
up there.
We hear of considerable im-
provement being made in resi-
dences in Granger at this time,
and several new ones are to be
erected soon.
It is reported that a member of
the railroad commission will be in
Granger in the near future to in
vestigate and report back to the
commission the condition at this
place regarding a depot.' All
Granger wants in this matter is
plain justice.
Minnie, the i6 month old baby
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. A.
Fletcher who live a few miles east
of Granger died very suddenly
Tuesday night of convulsions and
the remains were buried in the
Granger cemetery Wednesday.
Mr. A. C. Storrs, father of out
Mr. A. W, Storrs, died at his
home in Mart, Texas, on Wed
nesday of last week, from pneu-
monia. Mr. Storrs spent the
Christmas week here with his son,
and it was our pleasure to meet
lum, He was a man full of years,
probably past the three score and
ten mile post, and impressed us as
being a true gentleman and a
worthy citizen.
In Fayette county they are hav-
ing trouble over tho negro prob-

neoTo tenants to throw up their
contracts with land owners and

better terms than they got in
Texas. The land owners are get-
ting together and making it hot
for the agents, One of the agents
appealed to the governor i'or pro-
tection, and the rherlfC was in-
structed to protect him. The
sheriff offered him a room in' jail
but found a 45-calibro pistol on
him, and charged him S40 for
carrying concealed weapons. He
I then concluded he didn't want
the room and vent home.
