MRS. HAMMON has a number of beautiful coverlets, spun and woven with her own hands, and although they are over 50 years old and have been much in use, are as clean and nice as when they were new. Mr. and Mrs. Hammon delight in extending the hospitality of their well-appointed home to their old-time friends.
