Bandom Talk About How to Kill the Bibl
Societp.
After expressing; profound respect for thos
of our fellow-citizens who recently tools par
In the Interminable and ever recurring dif
cusslon of the time and place of meeting c
the Abbeville District Society, we hope to b
thanked for adding nothing to that tlresom
discussion, and we trust to be pardoned fo
whatever we may now say.
If we are not in error, the attendance 01
these annual meetings has been very muc!
reduced of late years, and especially so sine
the organization of the local auxiliary socle
ties, which send delegates to represent then:
Pious and zealous delegates,* or memben
while manifesting the greatest Interest in th
welfare and prosperity of the society seem t
be totally oblivious of the fact that they ar
sapping the life of the institution by thel
/ never ending discussion ol the time and plac
of meeting. Some of the propositions, if 1
were not a serious subject, are ludicrou
enough to make a horse laugh.
While some of the gentlemen are urgini
the adoption of a regulation to have the At
bevllle District Bible Society meet at Lowe
desvllle, or Troy, or Due West, or Mount Cai
mel, nobody has once suggested that tb
Lowndesvllle, or the Troy, or the Due Wesl
or the Mount Carmel societies meet at Abbe
vllle.
And nobody has suggested tbal the Abbe
ville District Bible Society should ride th
circuit and meet alternately at Anderson
Greenville. Laurens, Newberry, and Greei
wood. There Is Just as much sense and Jus
as much reason in having the Abbeville Dif
trlct Bible Society meet at the county cite
named as there Is in the proposition to hav
the society meet at Confederate Cross Road
or at Jericho.
Another thing. It the friends of the Abbe
yille District Bible Society would perpetuat
the society, they should put a good sized muz
zle on those delegates who seem determine*
to talk the society to death.
It may be trne that the delegates should b
allowed to talk, but the time has passed whei
fnrthBf fait nf ohoncrlno' f.hn tlmp and nlan
of meetii g should be allowed.
Abbeville needs no lectures on the subjec
of rtoing her duty In any commendable entei
prise. Our people Kive of their money a
cheerfully and as liberally as any people oi
earth. The reoords prove this. But we are i
people v?ho believe the days of martrydon
are numbered.
To expect people to go to a meeting and sufc
mlt to an intolerable bore is .unreasonablt
They are not going to do It.
If, therefore, the well wishers of the soclet;
would try to make the meetings interesting
our people would be there In great numbers
They love to be entertained, and can stand
lot of It; but when It comes to booring then
to death, they will not submit.
Rather than be forced to leave before ad
journment or to have the appearance of lnal
lention or to show a lack of interest in a Ion
religious service which is followed by an in
terminable discussion of nothing better thai
a repetition of time and place of meeting, ou
people prefer to show their respect by stay in
away.
We believe it was Mr. Lincoln's Secretar;
of War who said that an editor could com
mand a fleet or perform the most difficul
surgical operation. If an editor could do an;
or all of these things he might very well ai
tempt to regulate that old and honored instl
tutlon, the Abbeville District Bible Society
So here goes:
1. Omit tbe singing.
2. Reduce the reading of the Scriptures ti
the text from which the sermon is to be de
llvered.
8. Let the prayer be, so to speak, merely t
telegraphic dl?patch, In behalf of the Bibi<
Cause?in time, not exceeding one minute.
4. Limit the Bermon or address to six o
eight minutes, which sermon or addres
suuuiu ue peruneoi 10 me mailer Deiore tn
society. Theological discourses should h
barred.
5. Hire policemen whose duty shall be ti
knock on the head any man wbo shall here
after propose to interfere with the time an<
place of meeting.
6. Give the citizens of Abbeville som
chance to speak with the delegates who com
from abroad, and not force us to foregi
this pleasure or require ub to wait thre
hoars for tbe privilege.
7. The matter of contributing Is a dut;
which has almost become a principle wltl
our people, but tbey are not idiotic martyrs
They are not going to be bored to deatb
Their liberal contributions and their nou
attendance upon these meetings Is proof c
the correctness of this assertion. If the meel
lng8 are made interesting, they will not onl;
give of their money, but they will be glad t<
be there in person.
8. The meeting of the Bible Society is mon
a social affair than a devotional aggregation
There Is no use of putting on hypocritical air
and pretending that our people are hungerlni
and thirsting for devotional exercises. Ou
people are not craving religious exercises
This Is proven in the fact of their absenc
from divine worship on Sunday morning
Their fidelity to tbe Bible Cause is best attest
ed by the amount of money which they glv
to every church enterprise.
9. Because of the extreme length of the re
cent meeting of the Bible Society, the greate
portion of our people, as a rule, were deniei
the privilege of meeting the delegates. Ou
people love to meet the gentlemen who usual
ly come, bat as great as that pleasure is, ou
people are not ready for martyrdom.
We are not wedded to any particular schem
or program. We are only talking in the hop
that something may be done to Interest ou
people. Their gifts of money bhow that the;
are Interested in the Bible Cause. If the;
were better entertained our Deonle would b
more Interested In the anniversary meetlni
of the society.
Oar people turn out in great numbers ever;
year to Bee the circus street parade, and man;
of them, after taking in the free exblbiilor
pay to see the tent performance. The annus
school exhibition Is well attended. Whei
we have operas, or theatrical entertainment
In the Court House our people are there. J
our Bible Society meetings had some Interes
Injected into them our people would he then
too.
Speaking for this editor personally, we wet
sorry that we did not have the pleasure of ex
' changing a word with our friends who ha
OOme lrom a distance. When a bodv waul
to meet Ms friends, he is not In a very recef
tive mood for religious services; and to liste:
to talk of changing the time and place c
meeting is out of the question. Such talk i
tiresome enough to adjourn any meeting. J
the gentlemen would make the meeting
more Interesting the people would be there.
President Lewitt W. Parker.
The reorganization of the Capita
City mill was prefected yesterday a
Columbia at a meeting in which th
new stockholders, formerly creditors
participated.

' Where tlie waters of Hroad River mingle,
; with those of tlie Savannah, at. the southern-1
most point of Elbert County, Is located the
bome of Capt. Drew Cade. At this point,
" since 1871, the good people of Georula and
Carolina have come together annually to
haveageneral good time.
When a Georgian goes In for a frolic there
is nothing that can stop him, he likes a
- frolic ao well as anybody. Naturally, this
a picnlcing rendevous can't bo turned down
ill the two states. Savannah and Kroad
~ river bottoms grow big trees and shady trees,
and Capt. Cades home between these two
rivers is ideal, Broad river in the front and
" Savannah in the rear, on the site of Old
Petersburg and at the head of navigation are
conditions that help to make It a very interesting
place.
e At one time this point was the business
1 ceuter for this entire country. There were
three towns, all quite near each other;
Vienna In South Carolina had nine stores,
e and Petersburg In Elbert County had thirtye
five or more stores and seven tobacco manur
facturies. this being the distributing point
for Georgia and Carolina. Thousands of
3 pounds of tobacco rolled into this town by
b the old method of transporting the weed,
e which was to till a hogshead with It and pass
! an axel through the center of each head, and
> to the protruding ends of the axel fasten a
pair of tbalts. A horse hitched to this could
e pull as many pounds as if hitched to a
0 wagon.
f- Tivo to frtM c\f on oprnoflnt lnfmectnr
r who was located here long ago. A poor man
e bad brought the fruits of a y :ars labor to this
t point In order to place It od the market*
s His hogshead ol tobacco was his all, and lor
?ctne reason the Inspector turned it dovwi
P and ordered It rolled Into the river. The
' owner of the tobacco said, "I will kill you if
'* you roll toy tobacco into that water, if you
'* can't pass it, I'll tafce it home; but don't you
e roll it into the water. Oh! I've heard that
? k nd of talk before," said the inspector. And
!* prooeeded to roll the tobacco into the river.
The farmer crazed at loosing all he had, shot
* and killed the Inspector on the spot.
e The old dueling place for Georgia is just
' this side the river, and the dueling ground
' for South Carolina, Just the other side the
* Savannah. In Lincoln County. In these two
'* spots many cases have been settled out of the
6 courts.
e Here is found the original so-called Ferris
p Wheel, built by Capt. Cade in 187G. Ferris
patented his wheel several years later.
The Ferryman at present is Abe Cade who
e has managed the ferry lor forty-seven years
'* without a contract of any kind. His fatherJ
-'Ferryman Bob" held that responsible position
sixty-nine years, so much for falthfule
ness. The ferry was turned over to the pres
3 ent owner thirty-one years ago.
e Just on the point between the two rivers is
shown to the curious a mound where 1500
1 dollars was dug up, treasure that was buried
long ago.
s The historical Interest alone repays the
a pleasure seeker on his flrst visit to the
a "Point". Capt. Cade has added much to the
0 natural attractions of the place, in the way ol
buildings, tables, benches, ect. J
' Quite a number of Abbeville people were
" present at the picnic held here on the 3rd,
inst. The Misses Malmie and Rebecca Tate,
y two charming young ladles from Elberton
" were present having a good time. Miss
'* Norma Wright, daughter of assistant Coma
mlssioner of Agriculture, was a visitor from
Q Atlanta,
Two games of ball Interested many of those
on pleasure bound. Overton against Dalb!
and Mt. Carmel agarnst Llncolnton. OverB
toD and Mt. Carmel came out victorious. r
When you hear of a picnic at the "Point,"
a the home of Capt. Drew Cade, don't fall to go
r and see for yourself what a beautiful spot It
g Is.
V
Picnic at Dne West.
t When you want have a good time go
y picnicking , when you want to have the very
l- best enjoyment go to a Due West Picnic.
I- The good Seceders in "De wits corner" like
, pure enjoyment as well as any people In the
world, and when they get their heads together
to have a good time they spare no
0 pains in making it the very best. They
know bow to enjoy themselves and it is a
great pleasure to them to make others enjoy
1 themselves.
e Last Wednesday the Due West A. It. P.
Sabbath School took Us annual outing at
r McAdam's Sbring. They were especially
s happy in the selection of tbls spot for a
p picnic, as tbo66 who have been there will
e Hgree. All the prerequisites for picnic
grounds are found here?a quiet spot plenty
0 of shade, and a big bubbling spring, to which
! were added benches and a table. The music
1 added much to the enjoyment of the occn- j
slon. Due West has always had good slne
gers, and there seems to be no diminution of
e this talent.
o The brass band also had a hand in making
? the occasion so lively.
The dancing was supurb. Oh no, not the
i' Old "pardners?up-for?the?first?quadrille"
3 kind, but two little tota who had seen the
i. "cake walk" somewhere and imitated it
' much to the amusement of the on-lookers |
- All present gave themselves over to the
'1 spirit of pleasure and abandon. We had a
- pleasant day and appreciate very much our
f invitation.

e Lebanon 1'lcnic.
' The people of the Lebanon section always
b hospitable, excelled themselves on the ocg
carton of their annual picnic last Friday.
Lebanon is one of the land marks of our
county, having been settled early in its
' history by Scotch Irish and Hugenots, whose
e desendanta are today amongst the beBt of
, our Citizens.
The picnic passed off quietly and pleasant "
> ly for the large crowd present, and especially
e for the old soldiers and candidates who were
given a place of honor at the dinner table.
It is the universal verdict thatuhe dinner
i- could not have been improved on. I
r The hash was excellent. While the other 1
^ meats and dainties prepared by the good i
r Though a Roodly number of candidates were .
present, there was no speaking. It was 1
purely a social gathering where friends and S
" neighbors lorgot for a time the cares of bust- i
ness and reoewd their pledges of good will i
e in the friendly handshake.
There is no section of the county where
e the people ore more harmonious and wbere
r visitors receives a kindlier greeting.
