Local notables and a sermon on marriage ethics in Madison
In Madison County on June 4 three plows and a single farm yielded sixty six cotton bales weighing over five hundred pounds each. W W Baldwin, clerk of the superior court and bank director, holds 1200 acres in Morgan county as an example of thrift. Dr. Madison C Peters in Baltimore urged women to seek independence and warned against loveless or mercenary marriages.
