Oliver Johnson, of South Carolina, has been presented by Mrs. Adeline McGuiggao, of this city, widow of Arthur J. McGuiggan, with a $10 note which was issued in 1853 by the Planters Bank, of Fairfield, at Winnsboro, S. C. This note, which Mrs. McGuiggan has had for forty-three years, bears the signature of Henry Laurens Elliott as cashier. The note was of special interest to Mr. Johnson, because his , wife, formerly Miss Christine Elliott,1 of Winnsboro. is the vouneest child of the man, now twenty years dead, who autograph appears on it. The note was paid to Mr. McGuiggan, who was a newspaper man, for wrtrk done on the old Charleston Mercury. After the fall of Fort Sumter, Mr. McGuigi gan went to Richmond, where he worked on the Richmond Dispatch, and it was in that city, in August, 1861, | that he gave the note, along with some ; other currency of that day, to his wife, who had been allowed by special pass, port from Gen. Scott, of the United States army, to go from this city to t visit her husband at Richmond. Of [ the currency given to her by her husi band at that time, Mrs. McGuiggan still has a $5 note issued by the bank 1 of Wilmington, N. C., in 1856. Washington Post. vi r . .-Ji
