Will C Curd

Feb. 17, 1874

Married.  At the residence of W.S. Shepperd, in Somerset, on the evening of 

the 10th inst., by the Rev. J.N. Current, Mr. Thomas J. Vickery to Miss 

Mattie Castle.  We offer friend Tom our hand of gratulation and may this 

union of true hearts continue to prove an earthly blessing which will 

ultimately lead the devoted husband and wife to that beautiful and happy home 

eternal in the Heavens.



Died.  At his residence, two and a half miles South of Somerset, on the 

evening of the 9th inst., of Consumption, Thomas Smith, in the thirty-fifth 

year of his age.  The deceased was a devoted member of the Baptist Church and 

bore his prolonged illness with calmness and resignation.  He leaves a wife 

and three small children who have the sympathies of many friends in this 

their sad bereavement.



Steamers on the Cumberland.  The Eddyville and other boats are now making 

regular trips from Nashville up the Cumberland, one of these landing at Point 

Isabel, in our county, every week.  Many of the supplies needed by our 

railroad contractors will be shipped via Nashville up the river to the Point.
