after the funeral scrviccs. conducted in ti.c
Methodist church. sho was laid to rest in
Long Cane ccmetefy. there to await the resurection
ofllieJtisU tfhe was one ol the saints
of earth?innocent, amiable, womanly, and
tleeply plotix. She united with tnc Methodist
Church in early life, and truly did she "adorn
ttic doctrine of her Saviour In all things.''
A* she IIveil, she died, and no doubt I
like Mr. Wesley the founder of her. Church, (
*he realized, during the last moment of
her life. "The best of all is, God Is with j
me." Rev. Mr. Prltcliard and family have
the sympathy of the entire community in
their sore bereavement. May the Father ofi

Dnn't Walt Till tlie I.nst .Moment.
Some of our highly esteemed correspond-1
rnis wait until Tuesday evening to forward)
their favors to the Prext and Banner, and tills
sometimes accounts for their non-appearance I
next morning. There is always at every

and we sometimes find It Impossible to set up ;
nil that we wish to put In the paper. The rel>ort
of theoitleers why had been Appointed!
tocxamiue into tne treatirteilt ttf coslvicts
came Tuesday evgniiig. This was a long piece j
which we could not omil, and the setting tin
of whieli necessitated Ihe leaving out of otl\-j

ents would forwurd their letters by Mouday's
wall.

A Oood Farmer.
Capt. W. A. Moore, who is one of the rich
men of this county, made his money since;
the war by farming. Besides making money i
lie has not neglected ihe education of hls|
children, nearly all of whom have graduated
?t some of our Colleges. As a farmer the
i.,.c rtMv (.(.mils mid his cxnei'leiiee I
and observalions on farming may bo relied
on. Tlic Oitlon Phint,m Marion, has tin more
practical correspondent than "W. A. M," Ami
when he lays down a proposition. It may be
accepted as a laet, and It it was not against
our rule to copy articles that Are written by
our own people for papers at a distance, wo
should copy some or Ills articles that have recently
appeared In the O'ttou 1'ianU

slructivc sermon in the Baptist church Sunday
lrom the text: "O that iny ways were directed

lesson lrom the text by showing DaVlil to
be a man of sound reason, Jarge experience,
Kiut a broad culture, and withal a man after
(>od's own heart; and how reasonable it was
for us to imitate him by precept and example,
by adopt!ng t he words of the text. The
speaker went oil to show that wo were creatures
of imitation, and how prone we were
to exert all our mind und will-power to speak
and act like authors and statesmen tuoro
modern and far below D^vid'n standard. After
we have discovered our own sinfulness by
a self examination, lie impressed upon his
hearers the Importance of doing as David
did, looking to a power without to be healed,
and showed the tolly of appealing to our
corrupt natures, the fountain head of sin, for
the cleasitig of any sin within us.
Dr. W.T. Weir who lives near Clinton In
Laurens county has a very peculiar case under

The case is a little son of his about three
yearn ok), and is one of the uWicttd that deserves
tho sympathies of all people, lie has
had one leg broken four times, tho other,
three; one arm twice broken, the oilier three
times. Has had his co'lar bone tractured and
many severe bruises about II : head, toes and
fingers, incident to a child learning to walk.
Some physicians argue that his bones arc too
soft, others that they are too hard. One peculiarity
is tnat the little fellow is able to
walk without the aid of crutches, in about
two weeks after the bones have been set,
while ordinarily It takes fractures months
to knit together. Quite recently lie had both
legs in splints at the same time, The Doctor
would like to have the opinion of any physician
who may happen to read this notice,
wliii the hope that some relief may be found
for this little butlerer. "S."

namely. Messrs. Wordlaw, White, Barnwell

interest of a bank, to bo located at Abbeville.
Our citizens, having heard that they were
coming, called a meeting and gave them a
hearty welcome. All admit that it would be
a great convenience to have a bank at some
point nearer than Newberry and Anderson.
Many times, checks cannot bo used In our
town at all, The merchants may not need
them and there Is no other source to have
them cashed from. There'ought to be Id each
county a money center and depository. The
dividends a bank may pay is not its only
good?that Is an advantage only to t he stock
owner. The tacililies for trade, a place to borrow
in distress must all be Included In its advantages.

Abbeville, S. C.f
tyAS THE REST PATENT TIRH. ATVJTl
JUSTER that has ever been used in Abvlllo.
It tightens the loose tiros of wheels by
a new process whicjj swells the rim of the
Wheel to any tightness desired, and is held
to by meatus of wnshurs placed on the end of
the spokes. The machine works perfectly,
and can be used on any wheel. In half hour
all the wheels any vehicle may be tightened,
without taking them off the axle-trees. It 1
certainly the best milchlnoof the kind, and
the work is dblll'at a reduced price,and In a
belter manner than by any other machine.
