The Lexington Dispatch G. M. HARM AN. Editor and Publisher. LEXINGTON. S. C.. WEDNESDAY. APRIL *4. 1901. "Scraps of History." To the Editor of the Dispatch: It is not the purpose of the writer to attempt at this time any extended k notice of the Indian tribes which once peopled the county in which onr people are now liviDg so happily and so prosperously. Two hundred years ago'Jobn Liwsod, the surveyor and historian, visited the Congaree tribe on the river of that name aDd was much pleased with their appearance. He declares "these are a very comely sort of Indian?, there a beiDg a strange difference between the proportions aDd the beauty of these heathens; the women being as haDdsnmo fta mntf T 'nora maf tpitVial ? ww ? jl. uu t c ijli y b there b^iDg several fine figured bruDettes amoDgst them. The lassies stick not upon band loDg, for they marry when very young, as at twelve or fourteen years of age." The Edistos and the Saludas likewise had their homes and hunting grounds here, while from time to time the forests, so familiar to us now, resounded with the hideous warwboop. Their first conflict with the whites in our county was In 171*2 when Col. Moore assembled bis forces on the Congaree and defeated a band of their warriors. In 1759 aDd 1760 this section was on the frontier and the Indians, under instructions of the French commanders, were guilty of outrages and atrocities unknown to civilized waifare, and tbo settlers here were forced to abaodou their homes and seek refuge temporarily in Charleston, Orangeburg, Punsburg on the Savannah and elsewhere. The first white men came-to Lexington in 1737 ami settled along the Congaree river. They came from Switzerland and Germany, and there were among them names which are still known and honored; notably the Geigers, Kinslers, and Levers. ** Later, from 1740 to 1750, an excellent class of immigrants came from the Rhine and from the banks of the Elbe and the Oder. The purpose of this paper is to show the beginning of the religious organizations in the section now known as Lexington. The first minister who ever preacbod here was tho It" v. Coristian Tbeus of the German Reform Church. He begau his work in 1730, just two years after the arrival ; of the earliest settlers, and continued | to labor successfully till his death in ! 1789, a period of fifty years. Jle | passed through great trials and dan- 1 gers aDd was often persecuted for j righteousness sake, but continued j steadfast in the faith and accomplished most excellent results. His earnest piety has never been doubted and he was manifestly a man of stroDg intellect and of a fair degree of culture. He was born in Switzerland early in the Eighteenth century and died near its close and was buried near Lis home and the scenes of his 1 labors, about eight miles from Columbia on the "StateHoad." ^ Some years after his death the Hon. Abram Geiger erected a tablet j at his grave which has this inscription: "This stone points cut where the remains of the Rev. Chiistain Theus lie." Testimonials to his high : character -also appear. The evidence i _ ii j i /% i i i is conclusive mat tne nrsc cnurcn constituted in the county was St John's German Reform Church which came into existence under the iabors of Mr. Theus in 1744 probably. It was located near where Thorn's creek crosses the old State Road about eight and one-half miles from Columbia; though the church was constructed about a half century before the city was laid out. This church i is no longer in existence and has per- j haps been extinct for more than one j hundred years. It is believed that the building was destroyed during the Revolutionary War. As early as 17o0 there were said to be twohundred aodeighty persons ; here of the Lutheran faith and they were trying thus early to have one of their ministets located among them ! It is Dot clear, however, that they succeeded iu securing church privileges uDtil some ten or fifteen years later. | About 17(>5 the Itev. Lewis Hoch- j heimer came to the Cougaree settle- j ments aDd organized the Salem or j Sandy Run Lutheran church, aud ; constructed a church on the banks of i rivor roVioro I a oaKl/im<in(o ! v* * uvi v tug ovtucuicuio nvi^ about 3 miles from where the Sandy j Run church now stands. The health ; of the people where they first settled was not good aDd they were forced to build their residences iu the sandhills and the church was moved some years later. There is some doubt us to the uninterrupted existeuceof this church. It is told that it was so nearly extinct iu 1811 that a rcorgao- . ization was necessary. If there was continued existence, this is the old- , est church in the countv. as it ante " I dates aDj other church now existing about two years.

Lewis Hochheimer was the second minister who labored here; and the first Lutheran minister. The Rev. J. N Mvrtin was between the Broad and Saluda rivers as eaily as 1787 and was the first minister to reside there. Ia 1781 there were fifteen churches incorporated in the State &Dd among them, the follov7ing in Lexington county appear in the order here named: "Salem, cn Sandy Hun; Mt. Zion, 011 Twelve Mile Creek; Bethel, on High IIill Creek; St. Peter's, on Eighteen Mile Creek; and Wateree, on Wateree Creek. Z on, St. Peter's and Bethel formed a pastorate more -ban ooe hundred years ago. St. Mich ad (Blue Church) was constituted in 1S14. St. Stephen's (Lexiocton C. H,) Nazareth and Piatt Springs about 1830: St. Andrew's in 1835; St. David's 1845; Macedonia in 1849. Salem, on Hollow Creek, was probably constituted before the close of the Eighteenth century. The earlier ministers of the Lutheran Courch were Lewis Hcchheimer, 1755-1774; J. N. Martin, 17G7; F A Wather*. 1787: F. J. Wallem, 1788; J. G. Bamberg, 1798; C. C Bernhardt, 1790 1809; J. U.

The dales above given refer to the years when these Christian pioneers were in active work, without reference to tbe time of their birth or death. The splendid record, tbe great achievements aud the high character of these heroic soldiers of tbe crosR entitle them to a far more extended notice than can be given here. These names are embalmed in the hearts of the people, and honored on the records of their Church. The Lutheran Theological Seminary was established in 18.TJ and located at Lexington 0. II, in 18o'l, aud was in successful operation there for raaDy years.

Wine of Cardui establishes a painless and natural menstrual flow. When once this important function is started right, a healthy life will usually follow.
