He served this appointment faithfully and was regarded by all as a good Christian soldier of the cross and we bid hirii goodbye with much regret. His good wife when she came here four years ago, and received a very cordial welcome, then, in that it was known that she was the daughter of the late Maj. M. G. Zeigler, who in the days gone by, was so highly honered in Abbeville County, who left many strong friends in and around this place, these could do no less than extended to one of his descendants a very cordial welcome, and give to her the good will that they had held for him who had passed away, but by no means forgotten. When Mrs. Chandler first came here, she at once gained a foothold from which she cannot be shaken. All alike regard her as a noble, sincere, Christian woman, and regretted very much indeed, her forced departure.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases out together, and until the last few years was supposed to he incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven Catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore reI quires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F.
