N EWSAND HERALD WINNSBORO, S. C. J. FRANK FOOSHE1 Editor and Proprietor. P UBL18HED WEELY TIMs, m ADV.NC$ : Ote Year................$15 aix Months........................ -75 Wednesday, November 28, 1906. Thanksgiving tomorrow and all places of business closed. Thanksgiving is a -ime for giv ing thanks. There is no better way of giving thanks than bylbelping others. 1'bere are no others more deserving of help than the orphans. The contributions that are being asked for the various orphanages of the state should be forthcoming. Times are never too hard for helping on the good work of making for better citi zens in the coming years. That is the work of the orphanages and in this work there should be the hearty co-operation of the people throughout the State. If there are any in this section who think that the crops have not been such this year as to make this a time of Thanksgiving, they should re member that even with them the crops are far better than they are with their neighbors not a hun dred miles away in their own State. Then too, things are nev er so bad that they might not be worse and this of itself should be the occasion of thanksgiving to everyone, in whose heart is em bedded gratitude to the giver of every good and perfect gift :or every blessing that comes to them. It was not our good fortune to have more than a passing ac quaintance with Paul M. Brice, who passed away at the home of his father here last Wednesday morning. His close editorial work necessitated his being con tinuously at his post, and so he was best known to those whose work was along with him in Columbia, where most of his work was done. We never heard him spoken of in any other way than of the deepest appreciation on the part of those who knlew him best. We regret that we did not have the privilege of com4ing under the spell of his own re markable personality, especially since we know from his coJlaborers what a brother he was to them. The tributes< that have been paid him by his newspaper friends throughout the State have been of the very highest order and it is an honor to the town of Winnsboro to have produced one who by his personal character has won such a strong coterie o f friends among . his newspaper workers and who has stood for such high journalism in his long career as a newspaper man. His friends testify that there was nothing little in him and this statement is most forcibly sustain ed by his editorial writings and 'in all his correspondence. Im partiality and fairness were the key notes to .his success in his chosen field. 'Moze; te had a pen -- from which flowed the purest of English and there was a charm about his style that was exceed ingly taking'and attractive. No editor in South Carolina write better English and had a more fascinating way of putting what he had to say than the late editor of the Columbia Record. That he possessed physical courage in the highest and largest measure is most fully attested in t h e heroic fight that he put up for life and the way he continued to work despite the fact that he knew the end was so rapidly approaching. A less heroic man would have given up long since. Death took a true hero when it claimed Paul Brice. JenkinsyIiHe Jotting. Mrs. Joseph McMeekin h a s been visiting her daughter, Mrs. G. W.

Brice. Paul McDonald Brice dieI at 2 o'clock Wednesday morning at the home of his father, Mr. J. A. Brice. He was cut down in the prime of his life, being only 42 years old. Paul Brice was bo n February 14, 1864, at this pla ce. He was the son of James A. Bice and Josephine McDonald a n d received his early education at Mt. Zion Institute. After com pleting the course there he went to Erskine College, Due WEst, S. C., for four years, graduating with high honors. He then took a two-years post-graduate con se at Johns Hopkins in Baltimoi e. After completing his education he taught in the. Laurel St eet School at Columbia and after wards in Mt. Zion Institute. He gave up school teaching and be gan his chosen profession With The News and Herald, then undeir the editorship of Mr. J. Q. Davis. After several years with The News and Herald he went t o Columbia in 1888 and accepted n position with the Columbia Record and, after a success:ul career with them, went to Charles ton in the capacity of reporter nu The Charleston World. In 1891 he went to Savannah and was a reporter on the Morning News. In 1894 he returned to Columbia and was telegraph editor of The Columbia Register. In 1898, he accepted a position with t h e Daily Record and was afterwards promoted to editor of that paper which position he held almost until his death. Only a few days before his death he returned to his old home here to die. He had been told by his physicians that his death was a matter of only a few days. On last Tues day morning, after exhibiti'g heroic courage in all his intense suffering, his "spirit passed over the river and rested in the shade of the trees." The funeral services' were held at the A. R. P., church Thursday morning - in the presence of a large concourse of sorrowing friends. Rev. C. E. McDonald conducted the funeral services, which were simple, and without eulogizing, as were the wishes of the deceased. The remains were laid to rest in the A. R. P. ceme tery beside those of his mother. Paul Brice was one of the many men sent out from Winnsboro who have risen high in the world, and he was not by far the least. As a newspaper man he ranked among the first in South Carolina. As a citizen he was a criterion. Pluck and honesty were the main supports in his make-up. Many beautiful flowers were p laced on his grave by those who knew him but to love him. As Mr. Louis A. Beaty of the Savan nah News and an old colleague of Paul's voice the sentiments of all his friends when he said, "God will rest his soul as that of a honest man, without fear and without reproach. The pall-bearers from Winnsboro were: Honorary, T. K. Elliott, T. H. Ketchin, A. S. Douglass, W. H. Flenniken, J. E. Williams, . Q. Davis. Active: H. E. Ketchin, W. A. Beaty, J. S. Cath cart, W. D.

It seems that Will was be tween two of the wheels one of which had thrown its belt. In attempting to put the belt on without stopping the machinery a set screw on the other wheel caught the coat of the unforttan ate negro and began whirling him around at a rapid rate. All of his clothing with the exception of the leather wrist bands which failed to keep their traditional power of warding off harm from the wearer. The flesh was torn off his left arm and one of his legs was broken. While the man is in a precarioas condition ye', it is not thought that his injuries will prove fatal. STRAYED.

Kodl flyspepsia CuPeO Sion's New Pastor. When it was learned at Man aing that Rev. M. J. Holladay had accepted a call to Sion church at Winnsboro, the follow ing resolutions were adopted: Whereas our pastor, Rev. J. M. Holladay, has been called to another field, which call after prayerful consideration, he has seen fit to accept; and whereas he has requested this church to unite with him in a request to Harmony Presbytery to dissolve the pastorial relation: Now, therefore be it Resolved, 1. That it is with sincere regret that we feel com pelled to accept this resignation and unite with our pastor in a request to Presbytery to dissolve the pastorial relation. - 2. That we desire to hereby express our deep appreciation for the earnest and faithful labors of our pastor for the upbuilding of our church, and the advancement of our Master's cause in this community since his connection } with our church, and especially for his untiring efforts whichl made possible the' erection of this building, its completion be ing a monument to his zeal and fidelity in our behalf. .3. That we pray God's richest blessing upon the work of our pastor and his family in his new fielch C. R. HARvi\, Moderator. A. I. BARRoN, Clerk. Fortune Park Heights. The Fairfield Land Company has been granted a charter. Its capital stock is $5,000, divided into 50 sharses of $100 each. Its officers are Jno. H. McMaster, president; L. E. Owens, vice president; J. Frank Fooshe, secretary and treasurer. As stabed last week this company has bought all the land in the north ern part of the town, lying be tween the Park and Vandrhorst street, which is to be extended. This land has been surveyed by Mr. H. H. White of Rock Hill and laid off into lots. There are 25 lots containing one half acre or more. Vanderhorst street will be extended. A street will be opened by the Park and another street will connecti these two streets. This is a beautiful pro prty and its opening will give a great impetus to the building of homes in* Winnsboro.' There is a large force of hands at work now opening these streets and putting the lots in good shape. The promotern of this suburban property will spend a consider able sum ou the same before they put it upon the market. A big auction sale will be arranged for. at an early date and the terms upon which these lots will be sold will be so easy that it will be so that any one can buy a lot. The property will bear t Ih e name Fortune Park Heights, be cause of its nearness to the Park and its high location with fine drainage, which makes it a beauti ful location and insures the .best possible sanitation. The north ern part of the town is a most desirable residence section and it is pretty certain that most of the buildings in Winnsboro for the next few years will have to be in this section. This is an opportunity to buy a lot here.
