happiness, our thoughts dwelt wit
painful disquiet upon the struggle

The announcement here Saturday <
of the sudden death of Francis Ma*
I rion Mobley, which occurred at '
M Barnwell Friday night came as a ;
shock to his large circle of relatives i
r;and friends at this place and at Ker- t
jshaw. Mr. Mohlev's health had not
'been good for a number of years but
he sat up and conversed with his
family till 11 o'clock on the night of 1
j his death and remarked on the fact
that he was feeling much better than
r
for sometime past. Soon after he 1
letired his wife heard hint struggling
and upon investigation found him in
the grip of death.
i
.*n. .vniiiM-y was a son or tne late ,
0 Francis Brummett Mobley and his
second wife. Mrs. Jerfmiah Bailey
il Mohley, who still survives. He was |
horn in June, 1874. and was in hisj
43rd year at the time of his death.

1 I
e remained a faithful member. He was
married in 1901 to Miss Dorothy \
Blanton. who. with their three chil-'l

Dvches, who was assisted in the ser^
vices by the Rev. Mr. DuBose and the
, Rev. J. P. Tucker of Kershaw. In'torment
took place in the cemetery
at Kershaw. The large attendance
f at the funeral bore unmistaken testily
mony to the esteem in which the de
(j ceased was h?ld by a large circle of
, i friends and acquaintances. Besides'
r!his mother and immediate family,'
Mr. Mobley is survived by live broth-!,
ers and two sisters as follows: 11. P.,'

Van Wyck, Nov. 20.?A number of
gee
in Wyck people will attend the ^

too much trouble. This is the
oui
ong way to feel about it. We have
favored land and, we ought to feel
triotic enough to show, and tell to f
e world, what we can do and what
have in the way ot cultivated
ops and natural resources. Our
Ids and forests are full of exhibits
we just take the time to secure
em and place them where they can
seen and admired by many
oughtful spectators.
This is the way to advertise our
untry?to show what we have,
d tell others of the good things we
ve. We have many waste places
roughout our country, that need]
veloping and we need more brain i
d muscle to make these bloom as1
e rose, and by showing what we
ve and what we can do, may indue*
me one to cast his lot with us and
lp to make the happy change.
The new automobile road leading
to Van Wyck which Mr. Kester is
lishiug off with the "flood sufferb"
is attracting a good deal of at- u
ntion. Last Sunday a number of i
rs passed over this road and I
