Editor Pre.ii and Banner: ? \17 P D ? In h i u ro nl a tr\ I v f o" In fViA last Press and Manner says that only two real-? ly slaned the curd which I had published in. llie Press and Banner. I went to only six,, viz: W. K. Morrison. J. A. Stevenson, W. E. Bruce, R. H. Cochran, C. A. Botts and J. J. Botts and every one signed it with his own hand, and I would like for it to be understood Hint I did not forge a name as "\V. E. R." claims that I did. The above named signers will also send jv Ciird for publication denying the assertion of "W. E. E." They signed the card without hesitation. With this we dismiss further, discussion on the subject as the school Is now In a veryflourishing condition, and W. E. R," after all, did not do much harm, if any. *>' >?; Very respectfully, DIXIE. They Signed the Paper. Editor Press and Banner: j. In the Inst issue ot your valuable paper, we And "\V. E. R's" cheeky reply to "Dixie's"article in the issue of the Abbeoille Messenger of the 1 It-h inst., and in that, reply we find the following bold assertions, which is the ofely paragraph in all that wonderful article that, we propose to notice, in any shape or foriu^ and we would not even notice this, were it not for the tact that we desire to set "Dixie" in bis true and proper light before the public. The following Is the paragraph to which we refer: .? . . "I met one tof.tlie gentlemen who?e name was affixed to the card, and he told me of his own accora, mat, ne aia not sign me earn, nor was any paper presented to hi in 6>r i)ls signature. He was simply asked did lie mean day reflection on the teacher, and answered verbally In the ,negatlv;?. Tiie. c&rd appeared with this gentleman's feiijnfrture. I have heard that t tie other names, with the exception of two signers, werp obtained In the same manner. This reduces the variable and eccentric crowil to h lonely pair. Perhaps 'Dixie'can tell who got up tnis wonderful card." Yes, "Dixie" can tell all about this "wonderful card" which has so astounded the civile ized world, and called down the withering epithets of one "W. E. R." on the head ,qf ono of America's purest and noblest young clti* zens, "Dixie, whose character -'Is above and bevond suspicion," and who would not, wo , believe, knowingly, perpetrate a fraud, or a wrong upon any human being living, for all the combined wealth of Abbeville county, with all of "W.

But behold! there are more people besides "pixie" that have a faint knowledge of this marvelous card, and how the "variable and eccentric signers" got their signatures affixed thereto. We whose names ore hereunto Bubscrlhed.'wieh ft distinctly Understood by,. * W. E. R" and the small balance of mankind; t?at we, and each of us, for ourselves and by our. own hacds, without any mpntal reservation,fear, favor or affection, and without fee or hope of reward, did subscribe, sign and affix our names to that miraculous card, and tnat "Dixie" did not sign for a single Individual whose name appeared theret >, notwlthstandr ing "\V.

Come again and we promise you a delightful time. . . j . . Our depot azent tells us he has shipped this season from here nearly 1,500 hales, of cotton. We hope as soon as our local freight^ on cotton are reduced, by another season to ship double this amount.

The Nor(f(Hse. BY WILL M. CAHLET0X. We worked through Spring and 'Winter,' throuiil! Summer and through Fall, But the mortgage worked the hardest and the steadiest of all; It worked on nights and Sundays, It worked each holiday, .. It settled down among us and never went away. Whatever we kept from It seemed almost a theft; I It watched us every minute, and ruled us ngiiL ?iuu ifn. Th?- rust nnd bllsjht were with us sometimes and *ometimes jiQf; . The dai lc-browed, scowling mortgage was fort ever on the spot. The wi*avil and the cut-worro, tliey went as well as came; The mortgage stayed forever, eating hearty all the same. It nailed up every window, stood guard at every door, And happiness and sunshine made tlieir home with us up more. Till with faillns; crops and sickness we got stalled upon the grade, And iliere came a dark day on us when tiia interest wasn't paid; And there came a sharp foreclosure and tho farm was cheaply sold. . The children ielt and scattered, when they hardly yet were grown; My wife she pined aud perished, an' I found my*elf nfntfe. What she died of was a "mystery," the doctors never knew; But I knew she died of mortgage?Just as well as I waut?d to. If to trace a hidden sorrow were within a doctor's art. They'd ha' found a mortgage lying oii that wowan's broken heart. Worm or beetle, drouth or tempest, on a farmer's laud may fill, But for a first-class ruination, trust a mortgage 'gainst them all.
