IT IS A NECESSITY. i irtlv after coming under its nt management, with a sin: lesire to promote the welfare I : -irosperity of our town and v. this newspaper advocated . > ig other enterprises the es*bing of a telephone exchange " ' 1 ^ ~4/\ O ? ! Ue DUllUing Ol mica iw ?iui- i : :>oints ol' the county. To the i of our ability we argued the . ial advantages of all parts ol 1 v county being in quick and' communication with one :.o*her and the manifold advani to be derived therefrom. .o-y one with whom we discuss!ie matter seemed to favor the ?ct and expressed a desire to i t carried out. liut like other ; u things, for want of someone! ike hold and pusn n 10 a ?ssful execution, the eii-j rise languished and relapsed > the dreamless slumber ol' in-1 '- Hit. . t last, however, we underUtod that the people of this v' ion are actively aroused ? t.ie necessity of a telephone , and are willing to put ..? r money in it. Khems, risville, Jay,Lake City, Scran-: 1;.. and oilier points have with | imendable enterprise demon- j ted the practicability of tele, *ne lines and are now, not only direct communication with another, but have extended ir connection to the net-work vires throughout the i'ee Dee ion. In getting the reports of last election was itrikinglv istrated the superiority of the . ephone system over the erode j 11 oid-fushioned methods of a] -gone generation. Where teleone lines existed the returns } .?ne in promptly and reliably, tile Ira in other points uot so fa: ed thoy were slow in coming, j r 1 actually in the second pri^ ry two boxes were not reported - time to be tabulated by the ex% . ritive committee on Thursday '. lowing the election! This is one ot many instances :at might be enumerated; but it idle to argue in favor of somehiug whose merits are admitted r.. a self-evident truth. As to the tactical utility ot the telephone, _____ : we believe there is no dispute. | Now it m up to those inte." ited , to organize a company, open books;1 of subscription and get the project j in working shape; and in the:. homely philosophy ot David Ilarum, ;*the sooner the quicker." ?

J Mr. James McClary Laid to Res) j .Sunday Afternoon. j | One by one, and with melan-. choly rapidity it seems, the old men of our county are passing, away. One of these venerable lathers, and withal an exemplary , citizen, a staunch member of the , Presbyterian church and gallant;,1 veteran ot the war for Southern 1i rights, was Mr. James McClary, whose death occuired on Saturday ( last. Mr. McChrv was about seventy* eight jears of age and all of his 1 iifa u ;?c snout in Williamsburg 11 ",v """ "1 ? - - - I , county, his home being a few | miles north of town. For the past; six months his health had been;' failing, and having exceeded the;, aliotted three-score and ten years, < his death was not unexpected. 1 The funeral services took place at >, the Williamsburg church on Sun- t day afternoon, whence the body!' was conveyed to its final resting-!1 place at the Willtamsburg ceme-ji tery. liev. James McDowell's j1 eulogy of the deceased was deeply pathetic and touched the hearts of j the large crowd in attendance. j, - Mr. McClary was a man of upright Christian character,a public-! spiritod citizen, all his interests being identified with his native , county.. .Besides a loving and i bereaved wile, he leaves six children to mourn the loss of a father, liis surviving children ' are, Mrs. William Walters and Mrs. M.S. Montgomery, and! Messrs. S. M., Cleburne, Herbert j and Jleyward McClary. A Card. We, the undersigned, take, pleasure in recommending to the ? people of Williamsburg county Mr. C. M. Williamson, ot Dur-:. lirgton county, as a man of good character?honest,industrious and 1 reliable?as well as an all around expert in tlio cultivation, curing and handling of tobacco. Mr. Williamson is one of the t? most successful tobacco men we ' have ever had in this community. : and one of the first to grow, cut i and cure tobacco on the stalk. ( Having a thorough personal ! knowledge of his capability, we i unhesitatingly recommend him to!' any one in need of his services. 1 .Respectfully, , 11. J. Williamson, * M. S. Buffkin, 1 (J. F.
