A native of Mar~ ion County, S. C. The second son and third child of Thomas and Rebecca (Gasquie) Fore. Educated in the common schools of Marion County?reared and trained as a farmer, which ' he made the occupation of his life. _ His home and farm were his ~ universe, and there everything * was well ordered and precise. His barn and smoke-house were _ never empty, and he was not annoyed by collecting agents. At the commencement of the _. Confederate War he enlisted in the 23rd S. C Regiment w wnere he rendered faithful ser11 vice to the close of hostilities. He was twice married: First to Miss Mary L. Kirvin to whom was born six children, only three of whom survive, to wit: Thomas a E. Donnela and Mary Jane, all of whom are worthy members of so- 1 cicty in their native county, and all parents of families. The sec>? ond marriage was with Mrs. Heng rietta (Lane) Brigman, to whom r_ was born four children, of whom three survive to wit: Joe V., Nina and Rebecca. Joe V. and Rebecca are married but Miss v Nina remains single, being the youngest of the children. The ie wif pre-deceased the husband by lC only a few years hauing been ie paralyzed prior to her death. The oldest brother of H. J. Fore?-Elly Fore?in early life went to Alabama to make his 2" home, and although it is known >y that he raised a family there, lit a tie is known little here concerning ,n them. ' The second in family, Elizabeth Ann, became the wife of the late ICo. E. T. Stackhouse, and was the mother of several sons of ul prominence in Marion County. M The next younger brother, 00 Thomas, went west and died je there. Daniel died in a Yankie ,e prison during the Confederate war. Rebecca Jane became the wife of Dr. W. W. Hamilton, a prominent and worthy citizen of iat the town of Marion, and a surhe vivor of the Confederate War (in is. which none rendered more faithse ful service); and the mother of 3 Di. Thomas W. Hamilton now beginning his career in the home of his parents and ancestors. Rebecca Jane is now the only surviving member of this interon esting family in Marion County, :ts who (it may be parenthetically stated) has largely performed the part of a mother as well as a noble sister to the other brothers and sisters and also to the widowed father. It was at her home that J. H. Fore always sought comfort and rest during the declining ig days, and it was there he went to in receive the last kind offices of ,t earthly friends; there to her aged father lingered and died; there a 3y younger sister, Miss Eugenia, at made her home for many years, _ i i J : i - ? * " ai aim uuiiuk a lung ana painiui 111[X) ness was nursed until the time of )n her death; there a younger brother Willis Fore, was borne when r- crushed by a moving railroad a train, and received the comforting: is care of this gentle sympathizing sister until he breathed his last; and it was the children Ed.

' " t' j * HIGtlFILL K06ERTS Wednesday afternoon at five o'clock at Mt. Andrew Church, one of the most beautiful weddings of the season took place, when Miss Sallie Willis Highfill, plighted her troth to Mr. E. Roland Roberts. The Church was never more beautiful, it having been darkened and lighted by candles. The decorations were ivey and goldenrod, banked with ferns and palms. The ushers, Messrs. F. M. Page and J. H. Stackhouse, marched slowly down the aisles and took their positions. Under the arch H, first came Rev. W. B. Baker followed by Mrs. Jas. Berry, who gracefully presided at the piano.

Then came the flower girls, little Misses Agnes Stackhouse and Penelope Berry, followed by the bride leaning on the arm of the dame of honor, Mrs. Ida Whyte of Greensboro, N. C., who was dressed in white batiste trimmed in babv Irish. The charming little bride never looked lovelier than she did in her soft white bridal robe of messaline with duchesse lace and veil with lillies of the vallev and carried a shower bouquet of biide's roses and forgetmenots. Her only ornament was a beautiful pearl brooch, the gift of the groom. She was met at the altai by the groom, leaning on the arrr. of the best man, Mr. Marvin Roberts of Columbia.
