ROLL OF COMPANY F, 14th REa
S. C. Volunteers Confederate Prov. Army
Prepared for Publication By W. Edgar Owens, Clinton, S. C.
EMitor, The Chronicle:
I enclose you a copy of the roll of Company F, 14th Respment, S. C. Vol
unteers of the Confederate Provisional army, which you promised some
time ago fo publish. This company was enrolled and organized at Langston
church, August 19, 1861. It has 142 names enrolled and, so far as I could
gather, only' four of them are still living. They are George M. Hanna, Cross
Hill, S. C.; Ellett W. Dendy, Greer, S. C.; Ben P. Templeton, Del Valle,
Travis County, Texas; and Mad P. Blakely, Gurdon, Clark County, Ark.
Some 30 or 40 yeai;|B ago the survivors or their children decided to have
an annual picnic and speaking day at Langston church on August 19, as an
anniversary of the company's organization and are still keeping that up. I
haven’t attended one in several years but expect to be present at the next
meeting.
I am the only living member of my father’s family of nine children. I
thought it would be very wise for me to get up this roll and 'have it pub
lished so the company’s children and grandchildren can keep it for the
benefit of .their posterity.
Clinton, S. C., July 27, 1929.
Yours sincerely,
W. EDGAR OWENS.

It has often been said of a good man
that, “His life was an open book.” I
believe it is generally accepted as a
very high compliment.
I read yesterday where a newspa
per writer said, “The man who de
clares his life to be an open book is a
half-brother to Ananias.” I have
heard many candidates for substantial
office honors say, “My record is an
open book; any man is welcome to
read it.”
More sober thought convinces me
that‘no man's record is fully spread
out for public scrutiny, neither should
it be. In every life there is something
to which -the general public has ab
solutely no right. A man’s official
record may be read by his supporters
be of record; but the spirit behind
or enemies alike, provided the same
be of record; but hte spirit behind
those official acts may be known by
no man.
Very few men have the time or in
clination to waste several days perus
ing a book that is wholly personal to
its author; a book lying open, on a
table may hawe a chapter or pages ex
posed to. view that are of no earthly
interest to nine readers out of ten;
the volume is of no more interest open
than it would be closed.
So, no man’s life is an open book,
whatever his Jiosition in society or in
life. It is proper to be so.
Men have fought and killed other
men over disputed views of existing
records. Seldom do two men hold the
very same view of a neighbor, a pub
lic servant, a nation beyond seas;
what does it matter that the “books”
are open?
My life is not an open book; neither
is yours. I do not invite inspection of
all my deeds by my fellows; I do not
wish to pry into things not my busi
ness; and, the world is neither worse
nor better, by our leaving each other’s
private affairs alone. There are a
great many extravagant things said
that would be quite as well passed
over in silence.
