J MEMORIAL EXERCISES. Carlisle Myrick is Remembered by the Folks at Home. The Memorial exercises held at the Kingstree Baptist church here Sunday evening in honor of the memory of Carlisle Myrick was one of the most impressive services ever held in this town. The church was patriotically decorated for the occasion, several huge American flags being conspicious in the decorations. The church was thronged with people to pay their last tribute to a young man, universally esteemed in this, his k home and community; who in answer V to his country's call had died the j ? iv r?n fnroten snil. And b UCillU Ui a> iiciu vu iv v>0" while his body is buried "Somewhere ^ in France" still his memory is held m sacred and dear by those who knew W him best and among whom he labored. The services were, opened with prayer by Rev. G. T. Harmon, who prayed earnestly for all the young men who have been called by their duty to go to a foreign land to fight for the principles, of right and justice. "Beautiful Isle of Somewhere," was sung by the choir, after which ^ the evening offering, which was given to the Red Cross, was taken up. Rev. E. A. McDowell, pastor of the church, stated that the exercises held would have been appropriate . even under ordinary circumstances, but were made doubly so since the young man, true^o his convictions had answered the call of duty and had given ud his life on the altar of sacrifice for what he conceived to be the right. Mr. S. J. Deery, chairman of the committee, then read a set of resolutions which had been prepared, after which he made a few remarks paying tribute to the deceased as a worthy member of the churchi'and faithful to its Sunday-school. Mr. W. |a E. Jenkinson, for whom Carlisle Mygf rick clerked before going to the col^ ors, was introduced, and Mr. Jenkinson paid a high tribute to the worthiness of the young man as a straightforward, honest, honorable employee, true to every trust. " Gen. Robert E. Lee had said: "Duty is the sublimest word in the English language" and "Carlisle Myrick," the speaker said, "knew what this meant and measured up to its highesffctandard." .Mr. M. A. Shuler, the next speaker, paid a loving tribute to the memory ? - of a young man whose example-'other \ young men could well emulate. Mr. Laurence H. McCullough told .of Carlisle Myricfcs measuring up .to. etery duty in his Sunday-school and t?at he was one of the young men who could always be depended upon to measure up to every requirement of duty. Mr. A. C. Hinds recalled the young man of an honest eye, open countenance, a pleasant face, a quick and steady step and he was proud that ^Carlisle Myrick would be numbered among the heroes of Kingstree. I Rev. G. T. Harmon then made a * short address in which he stated Carlisle Myrick had died a hero's death because he had died in the path of j, duty ?bd the world honored a man V- who thus received his final summons, ) and that the world drew the sweet mantle of pity over those who were caught by the last summons away from the path of duty. The Baptist church then voted to adopt the resolutions prepared by the committee. This being done Rev. G. . T. Harmon made the motion that the resolutions be adopted by the community, which was done by a rising . vote. Resolutions of Respect. Whereas: It is an undeniable fact, that we are all created by God, * who created all things for some good and noble end; and whereas, God made man after his own image and all being of one flesh are therefore, brothers^ and should have as our paramount aim to serve Him, who hath made us and gave Himself for us, so we in like manner should each and all of us give ourselves to Him and to our country as servants thereof. And. Whereas, God, who never errs, saw fit to rid our brother, Carlisle Myrick, from the horrors of war, first said: "Son, give me thine heart," to which call he boldly answered: "I give my all to Thee." And when the world's freedom lay in jeopardy, and r' the long roll of his country ^vas sounded, he sprang to arms and to his country's call to do or to die for his If own dear native land, fully realizing, B that the path of duty, that he was I entering held in an unknown and unw tried land, far away from kindred and | fond associates. And, I Whereas, He, who has this courage ' and honesty of purpose to come bravely out from the world to bear the cross, of his Savior and enlist in the service of his Master, and is also imbued with the same high and lofty aims to serve his country, his native land and people for the uplift of humanity is a christian patriot indeed. ^ And, whereas, God, who gives and who takes away, whose wisdom none can doubt, has seen fit on the eve of bloody strife, to exchange our brother's service for a peaceful sleep: Therefore be it resolved: 1. That we do bow in meek and humble sub mission to the will of Him who doeth ail things well; ' 2. That in Carlisle Myrick's death, the Kingstree Baptist church has lost a faithful and useful mem RUSSIANS AGREE. Fearing Further Onerous Demands Delegates A crept Treaty. Petrograd, Saturday, March 2.? In the fear that argument would result in even more onerous terms, the Russian delegation at Brest-Litovsk has accepted all the German peace conditions and is about to sign an agreement, according to a tplpo-mm from the dplecates received today at the Smolny Institute. The demands already have been increased, they reported. The message, which was addressed to Premier Lenine and Foreign Minister Trotzky, follows: "As we anticipated, deliberations on a treaty of peace are absolutely useless and could only make things worse in comparison with the ultimatum of February 21. ' They might even assume the character of leading to the presentation of another ultimatum. ."In view of this fact and in consequence of the German's refusal to cease military action until peace is signed, we have resolved to sign the treaty without discussing its contents and leave after we have attached our signatures. We, therefore, have re quested a train, expecting to sign today and leave afterwards. "The most serious feature of the new demands compared with those of February 21 is the following: "To detach the regions of Karaband, Kars and Batoum from Russian territory on the pretext of the right of people to self-determination." v The new territorial claims upon Russia are apparently advanced in the interest of Turkey. Batoum, a strongly fortified seaport on the Black Sea coast, in Trans-Caucasia, about 20 miles north of the border of Turkish Armenia, was one of the cities ceded to Russia by Turkey after the Turko-Russian war of IS 7778. Kars, also in Trans-Caucasia, 105 miles northeast of Erzeroum in Turkish Armenia, has been in dispute between the Turks and the Russians for nearly a century and finally was ceded to Russia at the same time as was Batoum. The other re gion jnentioned probably is that of Karabagh, Trans-Caucasia, lying to the east of the Kars region and north of the Persian border. Prudent.
