H!STORY OF FAIRFIELD COUNTY
WRITTEN BY FORMER CITIZEN
(Continued from second page)
Means, .1. B. -McCall, P. E. Pearson,
Jacob Feaster, Samuel M. Stafford.
Per' aps every one of these have been
stricken from the "roll of living
men!"
The venerable Col. William Mc
Creight is remehnbered by many. as
his long and exemplary life was pro
longed to within a few years of the
late war. When the feebleness of
age prevented him from the activities
of outward life, he lived his younger
days over again and employed his
quiet lh-urs in writing down the his
tory of Mount Zion Institute and of
the Presbyterian church which sprung
from it.
There are settlements in different
parts of our country, the history of
which would be ineresting to the pres
ent generation if carefully written,
s-ch as Ridgeway, Feasterville, Long
town, Monticello. Rocky Mount. Con
r.ected with the last is a striking page
of history almost unknown to the
present generation. The beamiful
scerry of that rpg'on and its fine
wator-power very early attracte(d at
tention and the Unite-i States gov
ernment started an establishment
there on a large scale. General
Dearborn, secretary of war under
Washington, visited the place and laid
the cornerstone of the building. An
engineer from Europe was sent to di
rect the works and the visitor who
walks over.the deserted grounds sees
nothing to remind him that under a
group of trees on the hillside rests
the remains of this accomplished man.
When the government determined to
have military schools this place was
mentioned as one of those from
which a selection must be made.
Among the curious yet baffling "ifs"
of history remains the unanswered
question if congress had founded a
West Point in upper South Carolina
what would have been the effect on
her history financially, socially. po
litically? The location of this Unit
ed States establishment on the water
is strictly within the limits of Ches
ter county, but we have ventured to
mRention it here.
Th, province of South Caroina as
divided into seven preincts in 1769.
'7'he precinct of Camden included this
and several neighboring counties. In
1785 the Drecinet was divided into
seven districts. one of which with the
same booundaries has remained to
this day as Fairfield. This name first
appears in the act of 1785, which di
vided Camden precinct. Judge
O'Neale inclines to the opinion that
Newberry took its name from an ex
pression of some delighted settler
who described its beautiful hills as
being beautiful as "new berry." If
this is plausible, then Richland may
have a similar origin. Our county
may have been suggested by the
co'inty of that name in Connecticut.
Lying in the finest belt of cotton land
this district soon became preeminent
ly the cotton planting region. Per-.
hans in no district in the South has
this great staple been cultivated with
mor, energy and success. Gov. Sea..
* brook, in his memoir on cotton, says
- the first .cotton gin to run by water
who settled on Mill creek, in th, sou
thern part of the county. The cotton
gins made in Winnsboro have long
* had a fhne reputation through the
* State. The old plantation system
- was worked with energy and zeal by
- the fathers whose children now must
show these traits in a different con
dition of affairs. But w0 may safely
predict that if the same industry and
economy are disulayed now they will
not fail to secure a full measure of
* success. It is to be regrettedl that
the geolog'cal sarvey of Fairfield was
never made. The lameontod Uebh
passnd hurriedly through it when sur
veying neighboring districts, but had
not reached it when his work was
ended.

RECOMMENDS CHAMBER
LAIN'S TABLETS.
"Chamberlain's Tablets have been
used by my husband and myself off
and on for the past five years. When
my husband goes away from home
he always takes a bottle of them
ilong with him. Whenever I have
that heavy feeling after eating or
feel dull and played out, I take one
or two of Chamberlain's Tablets
and they fix me up fine," writes Mrs.
Newton Vreeland, Minoa, N. Y. Take
these tablets when troubled with
constipation or indigestion and they
will do you good.

HEALTH AND BEAUTY.
By Caroline Gray.
Few Drink Enough Water.
How much water do you drink?
Enough, you will say. I know a
prominent woman who has always
been billious. I preached the gospel
of drinking water-lots of it-to her
until I was ready to give up, but her
skin only grew more sallow. Final
ly she broke down and was taken to
the springs for treatment. When
she returned, in two months, I had
the surprise of my life at her clear
skin and healthy eyes. When I asked
what had worked the miracle, she
answered with one word, "Water
There was no mysterious expen
sive treatment, just the drinking of
many gallons of hot spring water,
with a salty sulphur flavor. But it
was worth m,-n times the cost of
trip for this woman to learn, for the
first time in her life, how to drink
water. For that was years ago and
she has kept up her heaith better
than ever by drinking plain well wa
ter, not spring water. but drinking
it as if she were staying at the
springs at an expense of five dollars
a day plus railway fare. This means
the drinking of one or two quarrs of
water as hot as can be swallowed
slowly, with comfort, on arising in
the morning. For those who have
acquired the taste for salty spring
water, a pinch of sait in the glass
will help make the hot water go
down. Others, troubled with weak
liver or constipation, add a few drops
of lemon juice. Do not make lemo.
nade, or sweeten, just squeeze in a
few drops for the sour flavor. For
myself. I eat an orange with my two
tall glasses of water and have an
appetite like a harvest hand, from
breakfast to supper.
This works like a broom , to sweep
the alimentary canal of the accumu
lations from the day previous. It
prevents auto intoxication, which is
the absorption by the system of waste
matter from the bowels where it has
lodged instead of passing off. it
acts as a tonic and an appetizer,
giving the digestive system some
thing to do on arising. And as im
portant as anything else, it starts
the flow of saliva and digestive
juices, without which normal diges
tion and appetite are absolutely im
possible. Consistent followers of
this idea are but little troubled by
colds, as colds always shun a clean
system. To be sure, colds come from
drafts and exposure and many other
causes, but many times the draft
would not start a cold unless there
was an aggravated condition inter
nally, such as is prevented by keep
ing the system clean with water. In
fact, the idea is called the internal
bath.
During the, balance of the day
drink cool or cold water, but never
ice-cold. You should dispose of an
other ~.art or more, and drink it at
frequent intervals, not so much at a
time, as it is not so easy to drink
cool water in quantity as it is hot
wa-er. This may seem strange, as
I hav~e known many to' try hot water
a few times and give it up because
"it didn't taste good." But thous
ands cf men and women learned the
benefits resulting from the practice
even before prohibition became gen
eral, and the idea is steadily gain
ing ground.-Household Guest.
