On Sunday morning the beautiful summer like weather was changed by a fall of snow preceeded by rain the night before, calling overcoats and heavy wraps into services. Monday morning the mountains around town were white with snow and the air has felt raw every since ice forming in places. This morning the mill dam has considerable ice on it.
Lumber is being put in place to rebuild the Ransone livery stable which was burned a few weeks ago.
Maj. Anderson's admirable address at the unveiling of the Fincastle monument appeared in the last issue of the Buchanan Banner. It ought to be in the hands of and preserved by every lover of the lost cause - especially Virginians.
The health of our community is fairly good.
