?Christmas was very quietly spent
in Winnsboro. It was a cold, freezing,

they could be with their Christmas

they usually tuke possession of the

DEATH OF MBS. TH08. M. Z.TLB6.
We are sorry to hear of the death of
Mrs. Thotnas M. Lyles, who died on
Saturday nigUt after a short illness.
Mrs. Lyles was the "youngest daughter
of Col. Austin F. Peay, who represented
Fairfield Couuty for many years
in the State Senate. Sfce was three or
four years younger than her venerable
husband, who is now about 87 years
of age. Of her father's family there
were Martha Black, Sarah Myers,
Nicholas A. Pe&y, who was also Senator
from Fairfield County and the
wealthiest planter of the: county when
he died ju?t before the war, Mary Polnitz,
and last, Eliza, wife of Thos. M.
Lyles. It is enough to say that she
was uHsnmassed as a wife in her aifec- 1
tion to her husband and her family,
and in her skill us % man iger of a large
household, and a devoted Christian.
wimrsbobo as a cattle market.
Wiansboro ia rapidly becoming a
very prominent c&ttle market. Abont i
1000 head of cattle are now on this ;
market. Moat of theui came from the i
conuty, though a great many are
hrnncht from N>whprrv. TTnlon. York. 1
Chester and Lancaster. This is an
encouraging 6ign. It is said to be a
profitable business. Those farmers
who have more land than they- can
cultivate would do well to use the
surplus for pasturing cattle. We
heard a gentleman suggest a short
time ago, thai the farmer who would
tart with a good many cattle and
plant an acrc of cotton for each cow
k?pt would in a few years have a mo3t
successful cotton farm, to say nothing
of his stock farm. The cotton would
furnish feed for Jhis eattle, enrich his
land, and the lint cotton could be regarded
as a perquisite. A systematic
working of this plan would doubtless
prove satisfactory.

OUR CARRIER'S ADDRESS.
Ross Brown has been the carrier of
the Tri-Weekly News and Herald
daring the past year. His Christmas
address was written by a lady in town,
arid wfi thinlr fhaf, if is rmnnnalif crnnrl.
We reproduce it below:
While the lazy bois are sleep,
And all tba shutters down,
In and out, and out and iu,
I'm all around the town;
Scudding through the summer rain,
Plodding through the sleet,
Any day and every day,
The Carrier boy you'll meet.
When your breakfast coffee'a hot,
Ihe paper's at yoar plate,
Alway* brimming fall of news,
And always up to date.
When you take your hat and cane,
To santer down the street,
You never are the least surprised,
No matter who you meet.
At the busy, crowded store,
When ere a bargain's found,
We write it with our blackest ink,
And mark it round and round.
When your wife comes out to trade,
She knows just where to go,
To hay the freshest goods, at cost,
Baca'use I told her so.
Nodding, at the office door,]
When all my chores are done,
Wondering how the pond'rous press,
And grea- big wheelscare run.
Counting all the lagging hours,
urag^iug au,
It seems to me a whole, long year
"Would never, never go.
Stop! What'* that? the rockets boom;
Hnrrahl 'tis Christmas day;
Clear the track, I'm ont and goneGentlemen,
where's my pay?
Hoxuehold Gods.
The ancient Greeks believed that the
Penates were the gods who attended
to the welfare and prosperity of the
family. They were worshipped as
household god3 in every home. The
household God of to-day is Dr. King's
New Discovery. For consumption,
coughs, eolds and for all ^affections of
Throat, Chest and Lungs it is invaluable.

of a century and is guaranteed to cure,

A LETTER OF INTEREST.

Location of Mobley's Meeting House.
Descended from Tories, He Recognizes

in their Convictions?An
Interesting Story about
how Wade Hampton, of
the Involution, got
Lauds in Fairfield.
Mr. Editor: I write this to verify Mr.
A. S. Douglass' location of the "Mobley
Meeting House." He has given
very plainly the location. Many have
baen the times when I have passed and
been at the place while fox hunting
with the late "Dr." "Riah" Wright
and "General" J. D. Coleman aud
others. Has no one a Mills Atlas of

father had one I think though think he
cat oat the map of Fairfield Connty
and gave it to a party of Wheeler's
men. My brother, J. C. Feasor, of
Buckhead, S. C., has the map. Yon
might learn from him. The bluff or
precipice on (he east was quite precipitous
which rendered it difficult of
ascent or descent. Of the particulars
of (he fight I know very little, but I
remember very well that the Mobleya
of that day, of whom I am a lineal
descendant through ray grandmother,
Drucilla Mobley, were noa-combat
ants. They were Dtmkards, a kind of
Quakers, and wore their beards long.
I believe it was part of their religions
faith or custom to so wear their beard.
It was through their pcacefnl disposition
or to their fears that Wade Hampton,
on one of his forays against the
Loyalists or Tories, obtained all of
that valuable tract of lacd afterwards
owned by Dr. David H. Means, known
as "Hampton," and the Poplar Ridge
and Lyles Field, owned by Dr. Means.
They were gathered at their meeftog
house for worship and he came upon
thein and charged them with being
Tories a::d that they were assembled
for unlawfn! purposes, bat told them
if they would give me lanas mention
above that he would not arrest or
punish any of them.
My old friend Major T. W. "Woodward
has asked for testimony from all
who kr.ew anything at all from either
Bide." Well, I know very little, as will
be seen from what I have written. I
am descended from vrhat was then
called the Tories through my giandmother
Mobley, and I am not at all
ashamed to say so here. The Mobleys
were among the first settlers of Fairfield
and have always held a high pesi
tion socially and otherwise. In fact
they are among Fairfield's best citizens.
A word about Fort Wagoner or
Wagner. It was situated on Beaver
Creek, on land that has been in possession
of the Feaster family for more
than one hundred years, now belonging
to the estate of T. D. Feasier,
lately deceased. Wagoner was a
bloocl re I five of the Mobleys and was
a Whig. There was a few years ago
distinct .narks of the old fort. It was

says. I neither deny or affirm. I
am pleased to see the interest being
taken in these old historical events.
Daring my nine years sojourn here I
have never lost interest in my dear old ,
native State. May God bless her and
the many true and tried friends I left
there. I hare been solicited more
than once during your late, heated,
political canvasses to write what I
know about "Tom" Woodward. If
the Major, my old friend, does not
object, and you would care to publish
it, now that the excitement ha3 to
some extent subsided, I will write a
i short sketch of what I know of that
true friend and noble citizen. We
have nearly always differed in our
opinions, but I hope have never lost
our respect for each other.
