PATRIOTIC FAMILY,
Tlic I>oiiii>iI?Ih--Their N'olilc Kecori
mill tlieir Faithful Service to th
Conntry.
Abbeville County can Justly lay claim t
many scores of patriotic sons?uiany whof
allegiance and loyalty to their country's cam
bas been sealed with their life's blood.
In thl? respect she stands second touootht
county in the State.
Well might the noble mothers of this gran
old county look with pride upon their bra\
and chivalrous sous, and exclaim in the lar
guage of the Spartan mothers: "These ui
our jewels."
They have the happy satisfaction of knov
ing that not only are their persons, the!
honor and reputations zealously guarded an
protected ; but as well the honor and glory <
their country's flag by such true and loyi
sons, and these can never with impunity t
assailed while a true son of Abbeville remain
to defend the cause.
t. Let any laudable enterprise or movemec
be set on foot looking to the advancement c
the material Interest of the State, or promt
tlon of her honor or renown, and you will a
novo finri snns of Abbeville in the l'roc
ranks.
Among the long list of statesmen, jurisU
soldiers and patriots of which South Carolin
may well be proud, the sons of Abbevill
* County occupy most conspicuous places.
But while we bow with due and unfeigne
respect to the many worthy and gallant son
of this?our dear old county?at the sam
time with no desire or intention to make Ir
vldious or discriminating distinctions, w
are prompted to make mention of one famil
In particular whose members have contribui
ed no little to the good name and repntatio
of the upper portion of Abbeville Countj
This we are inclined to do because of the fac
that by long and intimate acquaintance wit
many of those connected therewith we knoi
whereof we speak, and feei that what w
shall have to say is nothing more than ths
to which they are justly due.
It Is of the Donnald lamily of which w
propose to speaK?a family to which mlgh
be aptly applied the distinguishing appelli
tlon : "A Patriotic Family.''
When the annals of Abbeville County ar
written, let it go down in history tbatMajo
u" "o|"? in thin countr
Jonn DOUUHIU, nuv
from the north of Island about the beginnln
of the present century, and settled in the vl
clnity of Donnaldsville, in this county, frou
whom the town of Donnalds takes its nainf
contributed his full quota of defenders of hi
country's cause, in that four of his sons am
more than double that number of his grant
sons wt nt promptly to the front either as so
diers in the Mexican War or in the late wa
between the States.
In 1846 when the United States became in
volved in wp.r with Mexico, two of his sonf
Robert and David Lewis Donnald, and th
only grandson which he had at that tlmec
sufficient age. John Donuald Hill, son of th
late William Hill, and brother of our presen
honored Judge of Probate, were among th
first to respond to the call for volunteers t
defend their country's flag.
The three went out as privates in Captaii
Marshall's company from this county, youn
buoyant and full of ongnt prospects, uu
alas! one of their number was destined neve
more to set foot upon his native soil. Johl
Donnald Hill, being but a mere stripling, th
hardships and privations of camp lire, th
long ana tedious marches, together with th
debilitating effects of a tropical climate proi
ed too much tor his tender years and the spii
It of this gallant youth passed out of its tent
mentof clay in the town of Jalappa, Mexic(
on the day of 1847, where lie was buried in
soldier's grave by comrades In arms, an
his dust now mingles with that of a torelg
land.
Robert and David Lewie Donnald both sui
vlved the war, and after the closeof hostilltle
returned to their father's home in this countj
David Lewis, while in service, was promo
ed from the rank to the position of Lieuter
autol his company, and was awarded a gol
medal by the State of South Carolina fc
meritorious conduct.
Robert's health was sb wrecked by hare'
nhiDK and exposure during that campaig
that he lived only a few years alter ms re
tarn home. So much then for the part take
by members of the Donnald family in th
war with Mexico.
The next call to duty in defense of thei
country's rights was that necessitated by th
late Civil war.
Among the first to offer their services t
their country in that memorable struggle wa
this same David Lewis Donnald, who bad b,
this time reached the age of- about fort,
years, and was in the enjoyment of a pleasaii
home surrounded by a devoted and lovin
wife, and a number of interesting children.
He went out as first lieutenant of Co. B, 2<
S. C. Rifles. Iu a short time he was promote
to captaincy of bis company, aud from tba
to Lieutenant Colonel of regiment, which pc
sition be held at the time of the surrendel
although for a great deal of the time he wa
In command of the regiment. He was thre
times severely wounded?once in the battl
around Richmond, again at the Wlldernes
and also at Deep Bottom below Richmond
From these wounds he never fully recovered
bat suffered more or less during the balanc
of his life, which terminated suddenly in 187
in the town oi wiiuamston, Auuernuu tuuu
ty. South Carolina.
Two other sons of Malor John Donnali
served In the late war?William and Johi
Donnald, Jr.,?the latter died in Virfjini
from the effect of a wound received li
battle.
Of the grandsons Df Major Donnald who at
ewered to the call of duty in their country'
peril, we would mention Judge R. E. Hill, J
L. Hill, lion. William E. Barmore, Georgf
Hugh and James Brownlee(the last three sa<
rlflcing their lives upon their country's altar
John Lewis Donnald, a noble and gallac
youth, the idol of ins father's heart, a genera
favorite also with his relatives and acqualni
ances.was cruelly and wantonly slain in cam
near Richmond by the hands of an unknow
murderer, in a momeut when he least e:
pected that harm was intended to him.
John Rosar Donnald. the oldest son of Job
Donnald, Jr., who died from the effect of
wound received in battle was also in sei
vice In the civil war. There may have bee
others whose names we can't now recall.
A more generous hearted, hospitable an
patriotic citizen than Major John Donnah
and one whose upright, pure and honorabl
loft o mnre luuMnir influence on th
community In which he lived would be bar
to find.
He was not only an honorable gentlemai
but an exemplary Christian, whose luminou
light radiated his walk in all his transaction
with his fellow-man. The writer of this r
calls with pleasure the many happy houi
spent beneath his hospitable roof at socii
and 'estal gatherings in the good old daj
of the past.
In conclusion, allow meto say that no ma
has given to this country more worthy di
scendants tiian Major John Dounald, an
while bis offsprings in the way of childrengrand
and great grand children?at this tlir
number perhnps hundreds, we have yet i
hear of one or them bringing reproach upo
their honored name. A Lady Friend.
BY THE EDITOR.
The Press and Banner publishes the abo\
article with pleasure. W e hope to have othf
articles on this and other families in tbe coui
ty. In order that any friend may supply tli
omissions In the above 6ketcb, we will hoi
the above In type for a reasonable time, ?
that all additions may be made, and whe
the record is more complete we may repn
duce the whole in one issue.
For Instance: Thts story notes chiefly tb
military record of theDonnald family, whicl
while being all that could be desired in thi
line, falls to mention the Important pa
thin furriilv hns anl.ed in the less excl
ing but none Ibe less trying scenes of dull
life.
John Donnald, the bead of tbe Donnal
family came from Ireland without mone;
but by Industry, frugality and excellent judi
ment, be accumulated a large fortune! H
was a good citizen In every way, and leut h
Influence for the moral and spiritual welfai
of bis neighbors.
"A Lady Friend" makes no mention <
Samuel Donnald, who was a son ot MhJc
John Donnald. Samuel Donnald was t<
many years a merchant at the cross road
He owned tbe land upon which the town <
Donnaldsvllle is now situated. The railroa
ran through his land, and the town w:
named by tbe railroad iu honor of Samu
DonnEdd?and not for his father, Major Job
*tt&nald.
Major John DonDald owned the Donna!
Mill on Turkey Creek, and we believe lhat 1
built It about seventy years ago. Tbe mi
was only a small part of his estate. He ba
large tracts of land, and when be died mau
negroes were on his land.
Except in an incidental way, no mention
made of William Hill. lie, like Major Doi
nald, left bis native land, Ireland, to seek
better home and greater liberty in Amerlci
He married a sister of John Donnald, am
during a long life be was a most useful clt
zen. For seventeen years he tilled the otlk
of Ordinary?the same as Probate Judg
wblob Is now held by his son, K. E. Illli?an
be was only removed by the Republicans 1
1868 or 18t>9, when all men of pronounced Den
ocratic principles were ousted. He was
friend to those who needed help, and the gei
eratlon which existed forty years ago nev<
bad a more faithful public servant. His soi
R. E. Hill, who now Alls the office of Probal
Judge, is held in high esteem by the peopl
Efficient, obliging and courteous to all, 1:
possesses many of tbe noble traits of his fatl
er, wblcb endeared him to this people in h
day and generation.
R. E. Cox, Trial Jusllce at Abbeville, is
grandson of William Hill. He is a man <
line ability and excellent judgment. Beic
studious in the law and quick in the disceri
ment of the merits of cases that ire brougl
before him, he is one ol the very btsi magi
tratesln the Stat% of South Carolina, and I
could sit oc the Circuit Bench with credit t
- tbe State. Like all|ihe Donnalds ano all tl;
Hills ot this stock, his integrity is of tl:
highest. A
William E. Barmore, a descendeniVof tl;
Donnald stock, was held in high esteem b
everybody. When stricken by the tliseai
which finally carried him off, he was a men
ber of the Legislature Irom this county.
It seems to uh that the Donnalds, the Hill
I
the Barmoresand the Dunns hail much to do
in establishing Greenville church.
I From Major Doumild down to bis most dis-j
tant relative, their influence has been lorj
.1 ! trood, and no family can show a belter rpcord j >
lor a hundred years. <
e For a century .John Dounald and hiRde-jl
scendents have been factors In all thatgoes to : i
make the history of a country. 1
In civil life they have acted well; in thei
o church they have exeicised a great influence, j;
ie and their bravery In hat tle.has shed lustre on
>e the arms of their couutry.
Let "Lady Friend," or some one else make i
;r the record complete.

These words often are used as a

they are ko full of meaning.
ii you ever think how human history
uld appear to ore unfamiliar with it,
t were to be represented in a kind
panorama? All its events previous
the birth and life of Jesus Hiribt
mid be seen to be preparatory for
im, and all its subsequent events to
shaped and colored by them. The
jrt period of life of Christ would
>m to be, as it was and is, and cen1,
pivotal period! of human history.
3e is gradually conquering the world
the might of love. Before his comj
the nations hod been prepared foi
although they knew it not, and
ice his ascension their preparation
b continued in a different manner foi
other and a different coming, which
11 reveal the superior closeness and
wer and beauty of his relation tc
in. He is coming in the spread of
lightenment, of the knowledge oi
;hteousness, of loyalty to Ood, anc1
consecrated service for one's feilow;n.
He is coming even by means o
irs and floods and pestilences anc
latever else turns human heart*
'ay from material things aud directf
sui toward uoci.
[t is faith in his coming?not at anj
,ted day or in acy manner to be fore
;u and particularly declared, but ir
e spirit and with power?which if
b inspiration of true missionary ser
je, whether in one's own home 01
mmunity, or in i;he remote regions o
rown land or abroad. Every daj
ing that coming nearer, although ii
ly not be a scenic display, com pre
nsive and dranjaiic, but only a re
lation to the hearts of his people oik
one. But whatever its form, its
?aning is the same.
We are to pray for it. We are t(
jor for it. But are we not also t<
surne that it has indeed begui

them in gentle chiding, so he often
