Dots from Trenton.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
King Cotton is appearing in our fields. We will have to get our sacks ready for battle or he will get the start of us.
Miss Sallie, the charming daughter of Mr. and Mrs. T. G. Smith of Trenton, are visiting relatives in Lexington county. We wish Miss Sallie a pleasant trip.
The Death Angel has visited the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Isaac, and has taken away their infant son. We all sympathize with them in their sad bereavement.
Not very many people from Trenton went over to Augusta last Saturday on the excursion on account of the rain. Those who went report a jolly good time.
The prospects for corn and peas are very good—in fact the yield will be the largest for years, which makes the farmer smile. As for cotton there will be enough made, I predict.
