Hedgecoxe - west of Allen along present-day Hedgcoxe Road
(McKinney) Daily Courier Gazette, September 13, 1912
Hedgecoxe.
We found W. H. Knight busy looking after his registered Poland Chinas, and they are beauties. His big ad in the Daily Courier-Gazette and the Weekly Democrat-Gazette are bringing results. parties in the market for that class of hogs had better at quickly because his offerings won't last long.
Away back in 1910 B. H. Bryant and Miss Minnie Hutcherson decided to get married and that settled it. A little boy of one month old the stork dropped on them is a "thing of beauty and joy forever." Mrs. Bryant was on the alert for a good paper and the Democrat-Gazette possessed the features that made it attractive. We thank Mrs. Bryant for her subscription and feel assured that she will appreciate the weekly visits of the big and popular newspaper.
Capt. J. S. Dowell of McKinney, was in the community looking after his large farming interests. His smile was of the genuine sort and no fake. Crops are big out there and the captain's "smile that won't come off" is an indication of big rents.
R. L. Love is an industrious young man who lives with his parents and assists his father, R. W. Love, to cultivate the John Hedgcoxe farm of two hundred acres which they have been doing for the last six years. We take this occasion to thank him for his check to pay for one year's freight on the Democrat-Gazette and we'll take pleasure in writing up your wedding, Roy.
Twelve years ago F. M. Kirby had Miss Hattie Payne were made one, and only two children call Frank "daddy." He is a Tennesseean while Mrs. Kirby is a native of the state noted for its pretty women, fast horses and - blue grass. For a dollar we promised to send them the Old reliable, the Democrat-Gazette, for one year.
J. B. and Mrs. McCandless married nearly twenty-eight years ago and eight children keep things going some. One girl of eighteen summers, Miss Virgie, is blind and has been ever since one year old. she is quite proficient in music and to hear her perform on the organ or piano is a treat. On the 17th instant, she will leave for Austin, where, on the day following, she will re-enter for the seventh time, the State Institution for the Blind. We thank Mrs. McCandless for subscription to the Democrat-Gazette.
J. H. Craig has been reading the Democrat-Gazette for one month, but says its the kind of paper he's been looking for.
J. T. Crowder is another man who succeeded in winning a good woman for a wife. That was in 1894 and before she knew much about him. Five children gather around the family table three times a day for meals but his big crops of corn, cotton and wheat will keep meal in the bar'l and spare a dollar to pay for the Democrat-Gazette one year and 75 cents for the Dallas News, or both papers one year for $1.75.
H. C. and C. C. Green two worthy young men are to be commended for their splendid judgement for subscribing for the best paper published in Collin county, the Democrat-Gazette.
Hes Dunn, native of Tennessee but came to Texas in 1891, and settled near Wylie. Lives with his brother Ellis, on the Killis Quisenberry farm and together are cultivating one hundred acres of land, 60 in cotton and 40 acres in corn. We are glad to enroll Mr. Dunn on our list of readers and he'll find in the Democrat-Gazette, all the local news and much of the general news.
R. D. Robbins is sure enough a native Texan but for reasons best known to himself, his father immigrated to Arkansas where, for a number of years, Dick, as his friends call him, remained, and it was there he found a pretty girl and he was so persistent that she could not give him the shake. After his marriage he returned to Texas and at the end of four years went back to Rackensack, where Mrs. Robbins died. In due time he married for the second time and tried his fortune for two years in Oklahoma. Six years ago he came back to his native heath and is now farming because it pays. Nearly 300 acres are groaning with the weight of big crops and he wants another good paper for himself and family to read and we had the time and inclination to send him the biggest and newsiest paper published in Collin county, the Democrat-Gazette.
