Briituud his daughter Miss Sallie | were shopping in the city last week. Mr. li. L. Jones, wife and daughter, Miss Lilian were shopping In Abbeville last Wednesday. Mr. Will Lesley is clerking for II. M. Had-) don <fc Co. Miss Rebecca Cater was quite ill last | week, but is now better. Quite a number of young ladies and gentlemen enjoyed an evening parly at Mrs. Barks-! dale's last Thursday evening. Some of our sidewalks on the public square are a disgrace to our town. Stranges aud citizens alike, grumblers aud And it at least uu- { comfortable walking. Our city fathers should remedy this public nuisance. We pay '( tax enought to give us good sidewalks, at | least. Thlssubject has been brought to the . notice of the council by more parties than , this scribe, nod it is high time they were giv- < log it tbeir atteuslon. , our Legislators leave this morning for ' Columbia. ( Messrs. Wm. and Capers Riley, of Mt. Carmel were in town last Friday. Tbe notes and accounts belonging to the , late firm of W. R.-Powell were sola in the j town ol Mt. Carmel last Saturday aud went , fr?r a Rnntr j Misses. Mamie and Bessie Marry were vlsll- ( ing friends In the Valley towu last week. "Al" worshipped In town of Mt. Carmel last | Sabbath and heard the last sermon for this ] conference year, preached by the pastor, Rev. | Berry, on the relations existing between pas- | tor and people?It wasapiaiu matter of fact | sermon, good advice for all. ' < Zoah came out as she always does on the ( home run, all right, puying up every dollar to the pastor. 1 Our Methodist preachejs are off to Ander- | son attending the General Conference. Abbe' vllle station as usual carries up a cleam sheet < paying In full every assessment, Is a member of any church responsible for ] what he promises to pay his preacher? II i bo, does he think It right to neglect it and thereby cause the board of stewards to make i up out of their individual pockets all defl i clencles. Let each member who is In arrears j with his quarterage ask themselves this ques- j tlon. We say the membership have no right | to put this burden on the stewards. < The Savannah Valley railroad Is now running on the best schedule it ever had. Running through from Anderson to Augusta and returning the same day, givfng about four ] hours In Augusta. Mr. Carmel bas trlppled this winter any pre vIoub shipments of cotton. They have also Bhipped about 15 cars of cotton seed. > There are more pretty babies in Abbeville j than any town of Its size In the State. i After a pleasant visit to friends and rela- i tives In MeCormlck Lilian hits returned to ; her home, and we look for ber'peucll points" in the uext Issue, Mr. J. W. Morruh's old homestead Is now | the orAttlest In the Valiev town. I Mr. A. M. Moscly, Miss Bessie Fox and Miss Ida Miller worshipped in tiie Presbyterian church Id Abbeville last Sunday night, and I were shopping In town Monday. Mr. J. W. Boyd and Dr. Curl ton were In 1 town lust Monday. Judging from the number of pretty young i ladles from Ml. Carmel and the beautifuldresses and hats with orange blossoms which they are buying in our town, we imagine we hear I the chiming of merry marriage oelis In the near future. We noticed In Mt. Carmel over 100 bales of cotton piled up in front of one of her merchants doors. This to us looked like business. Look out for the stars and stripes floating so merrily over J. M. Lawsou's store. i The Misses M< Cants will open the Miller Hotel about the first of December. M. i Lively Dots From a Live Town. Dub West, S. C.. Nov. 25,1890. Indian Summer. Late cotton Is short. The price of corn is high for this season of the year. Col. Power and MaJ. Vance drove the bride and groom to the depot behind the iron grays. Mr. P. C. DuPre went to Columbia last Mon day. It Is thought that some 500 bales of cotton will be ginned at the two gins this season. We hearof more nuptial knots to be tied 1 before many full moons. It is reported that Mr. Joel Smith led the I supscrlption at Abbeville for Erskme's new building with $1501 This is royal. We notice that the fly Is In rye sown about town. What about the oats aud other grain ? Mr. Geo. C. Hodges sends that bis suusorip- 1 5ion for Ersklne new building from Qreen- I wood. We hope others will follow. Abbe- i vllle has set a good example. Mrs. Bonner informed us last week tbnt the . health of the young ladles had never been better. There was not u single young lady complalntag. Col. McKlsnIck the aftlable gentleman and able staff reporter of the Mews and Courier was taking In Due Went last week, in coin* pany with Mr. Thomas Scott, of the Thorn- i well Orphanage. We looked through the col- * lege grounds and Society Libraries. Mr. Mc- I Klssiek was taking notes for the use of the c News and Courier. Mr. Morrow ran up from Verdery to see his people hereon Sunday. He will tnove In per son the middle of December. MIks Janie Wldemau will attend next week the silver wedding of Capt. and Mrs. J. E. Bradley on Long Cane. Mrs. McCaw, of Chester is visiting her mother Mrs. Anna Brice. < Dr. A. E. Miller, of Washington, D. C., was married on last Thursday to Mies Mary Banes now of Washington, family of Pennsylvania. < Dr. Pitzer performed the ceremony, Dr. Miller and his bride look a tripe to Norfork, Va. We extend (he hearty congratulations of Due West to our young menus. Mrs. Mary J. Wylle, of Chester county, ha* t been visiting her two daughters at the Female Cellege. She came over on last Weduesdoy. i Mr. J. Steel Brlce and Mrs. Cardwell, of Chester county, have been ou u visit to friends and kindred here. . Mrs. James, of Alabana, joined the A. R., church ou last Sabbath by certificate. A beautiful monument has been erected over the grave o f Mrs. Julia <3rler In the A. | It. Cemetery of this place. Mr. Thos. Scott, of the Thornwell Orphanage , made a plea for that Institution In the Bap- < tist church on last Wednesday night. After the talk a number of persons went up of their own accord and gave contributions. It is , expected that the Orphanage will be remeinb red on Thanksgiving Da;. The hearts of our people are touched by the generosity shown by Abbeville in contributing to the new college building. 81.500 for A b- | beville village to this cause, leads us to say well done, good friends ! In the future let us be closer friends. When we go to dedi- I catethenew college building? we will give you all a kind affectionate ic>viialion to be present. We say now, come one, come nil! Mr. Thos. Miller Is lending a helping hand In the A. R. printing otlloe. Dr. J. J. Darlington, of Washington. D. C? ' sendsasplendidargumenttotheA.il. Presbyterian in favor of Ersklne present location. The argument Is exhaustive and as Senator Brown was fond of saying, "he backs his , judgment wlih ills money," lie intlmats that if the college remains he will give an additional 8500, making Si,000 in all. Dr. ; Darlington is a worthy sou of old Erskinc. Our people were much grieved at the loss of the Yorkvllle Enquirer. This noble paper Is on ties, it is a loss to the Slate. We grieve with Capt. Grlsf. Ills tu-art was wrapped up in the Enquirer and he had Just occasion to he proud of it. We are glad it is to rise from the ashes. One of .he most pleasant occasions that has occurred here In months was the marriage on last Thursday evening, in the village church of Rev. J. P. Knox, of Virginia, and Miss Loudle Brice, of Due West. The church had been neatly decorated. Tne gentlemen came up one aisle anu ladles up another, proceeded by the ushers, Messrs. White and McDIIl. The beautiful bride enme In leaning upon the arm of her handsome brother, Mr. J. S. Urlee, of the Yorkvllle Bar. The ministers. Dr. W. L. Presely and Rev. W. W. Orr, accompained by the groom came in from the ante room. The groom and bride stepped upon the hearthrug?white and wreathed around with flowers?aad there faced each other. Dr. W. L. Pressley then began ihe beautiful ceremouy. At its concluson Kev. W. W. Orr made a most touching prayer and the solemn service wus ended. Revs. L>. G. Phillips, Jr., H. B. Blakely, T. W. Sloan and Mr. J. 8. Brice were groommen. Misses Susie Lee, Sallle Kennedy, L'.zzie Miller and Annie Brice were the maids of honor. The bride left immed- i lately on the north bound train. ?. S. G.

DavlR, wbom you will reaiember as passing out with theclass of'77, Is now making a name as a physician In thecltyofNew York, as I have had occasion several times recently to observe from the metropolitan papei's. lie is, among other things Inspector of Contagious Diseases ou the Staff' of the New York City Hoard of Health ; and Is identified with tho leading medical associations of the city. I wrote to him a day or twoasjo, aud I have a letter from him this morn<ngas follows: New York City, November 21, lS'JO. My dear Johnson:?\ ours of yesterday re?n.i nmed I tun erentlv astonished I at what you tell me. That ail attempt is being made to remove Ersklne College from Due West I can scarcely believe. And tbitt my good friend John Chalmers is an active supporter of such an enterprise leads me to exclaim, "Et tu, Brute! Ersklne College away from Due West is not Erskine College. Iftbeypesire to have a college at Kock Hill, or any other town, let them build it; but that they shall transfer Ersklne College from Due West to another place should not, aud, I trust, will never, be permitted. If Ersklne College does not nourish and prosper at Due West it would not prosper lu any town in the State. It is located in the most noted county in the State, where memories of Calhoun, McDuflie, the Wardlaws, Hemphills, Presleys, Griers, and a host of others, *re sweet to the lover of the State. May the name of Erskino never be stolen from Due West, and from Abbeville County, to be placed upon a college In any other towu." In writing to Dr. Grler a few days ago, I quoted from a letter I had received from John Miller, of Birmingham, Alabama. I do not know what our friends who are advocating a change mean by " more progressive alumni of the last twenty or twenty-flve rears"; but if they mean those who have liad the largest observation of "progressive towns" and the greatest experience with the varied life of the cities, I warrant the statement that that number would unhesitatingly reject any proposition that contemplated the removal of Ersklne College aud declare their unfaltering allegiance to the old landmantra it Mr nurllnirlon SftVS at the close ufa letter written to one of the advocates of a change: "I must confess that, to me, a college located at,Rock Hill, or at Chester, orat Charlotte, lu the year of our Lord 1890, called Ersklne. would seem little If any at all more than any uther college which might adopt that name. But old Ersnlne College at Due West' with Its old campus, every foot of which tsassoclaled with old friends and early days, and the very atmosphere of which is redolent with sacred memories, has a place in my heart second to few if any others; and I should feel as though another of the cherished objects we value in life bad faded out, If lis old place should be abandoned to disuse and Jeeay." Very truly yours, J. ALTHEUS JOHNSON. Washington, D. C., Nov. 1C, 1890. Rev. W. M. Grler, D. D., Due West, South Carolina. Mr dear Doctor": I hope the alarm which seems to have fallen on Due West ibout the removal of th?? college is without lust cause. Surely those who have control of the matter will not, under the circumstances, think seriously of a change of location. Why, Ersklne College would not be Erskine auywhere but at Due West, which Is interwoven with it and a part of it. Though pretentious lialls might be erected at some other place nud the name "Ersklne" inscribed upon them, ihey would be utterly wanting lu the local traditions and associations which bind together the members of a common fraternity, and which constitute, more than anything else, the " espritde corps " of an institution. To make a change would be to blot i>ut the traditions of tne past and to desecrate ' Lhe history half a century, the most priceless possessions of the institution ; and to call the creation 'Ersklne' would be the merest mockery. " Erskine", indeed, It might be In name: but Ersklne without its heart, without its soul, and devoid of its treasures. And what is the occasion for a change? The loyalty of Due West to thp church of the fathers who laid the foundations of Ersklne Is -- ** V. r? ??/-* <iAnot)l?(a/l li or an av. SUULl IW n IU UUYV vuuobibuvvu uwi uu v?ample? a living opponent, Indeed?of the doctrines they preached and precepts they practiced. Her people are distinguished for a charity and a hospitality which are bounded only by the limits of opportunity ; the moral atmosphere of the community Is such aa envelopes no other place In all this country; Indeed, the town and Its people are little more than the growth and the outcome of the Institutions In their midst, thus securing the utmost harmony of effect and adaption of purpose; and yet It Is proposed that thecollege shall be torn from Its setting; and, why, because forsooth some Ostrogoth offers money for that which Is priceless In value and which must perish in the selling. My dear sir, you must excuse me, but I can hardly restrain my Indignation when I think of the proposition to remove Ersklne College. Is there nothing safe from the vandalism of <o!d ? I write simply as an alumnus who takes an Interest and who has a pride In his Alma Mater; and I know I am not alone in the feelings I entertain. One of the engineers of the removal scheme wrote to Mr. Darlington a Tew days ago for his opinion on the subject, ind received for answer that the scheme ivas an outrage. Very truly your*, J. ALTHEUS JOHNSON. ?? Notice.
