Lowndesville, Aug. 27.?Mrs. Eli-j
zabeth McAllister Baskin, wife of ,
Mr. Jas. Baskin, died at the Anderson (
Hospital, Aug. 20th, in her 65th {
year. For several months sue naa ,
been in failing health, and at the ear- ;
nest solicitation of her relatives, as
a last resort, she underwent an op- ;
eration a few days previous to her ,
death. Mrs. Baskin was reared at j
Mt. Carmel and had been a faithful ]
member of the Presbyterian church ;
from early girlhood.' She was a wo- j
man of strong character, industrious, ]
forceful and frugal, always looking ,
well to the ways of her household.
She was the mother of 10 children, ,
all of whom reached maturity except .
one. Se eaves an aged husband and t
eight children to mourn her loss, be- j
sides many friends and relatives who'
will miss the neighborly ministrations j ]
of this useful woman. The body was. \
accompanied from Anderson by a
large number of relatives. The fun- j
o-ral services were held at the Pres- ?
byterian church by her pastor, Rev. j
J. A. Clotfelter, assisted by Rev. I.
E. .Wallace of Seneca, her former s
pastor, and Rev. Anderson of the <
Methodist church. Interment was
. made in the cemetery nearby in the t
presence of an unusually large con- j
gregation. The husband and children
have the deepest sympathy of the en- (
tae community in the loss of the no- j
ble wife and faithful mother.
Miss Christine Kay entertained all 1
the young ladies of the town at a s
Sewing party Wednesday morning 1
from 10 to 12 o'clock. As all the
young ladies that were present, arejt
either getting ready to leave for col-j
lege or for their respective duty as 1
teachers, Miss Kay's party was in- c
deed a happy thought, the blending 1
of the useful and the enjoyable in
this delightful way. After an hour s
spent in sewing and conversation, an- I
other hour was passed in music,
games and contests. During the en-,^
tertainment a delicious salad course
was served by Mrs. Kittie Kay and J
Mrs. Mark Speer, mother and sister Jof
the sweet young hostess. As the c
band of happy girls dispersed and
wended their way homeward, many ?
enthusiastic words were spoken of '
the delightful manner in which they *

SHERWOOD HEADS
TICKET IN SIXTH
Columbia, Aug. 27.?It was a case'
j of each county voting for its favroite]
son in the Sixth District yesterday,!
and E. J. Sherwood of Conway is [
leading the way with P. H. Stoll of i
Kingstree second. There are a few
precincts to be heard from, but they
are small ones. At an early hour this
I
morning the vote stood: Sherwood,!
2,094; Stoll, 1,753; Mclnnes, 1,550;j
Stackhouse, 1,412; Evans, 350; Le-!
Grande, 290.
Mr. Sherwood got 1,548 votes in J
Horry, his home county, and the fact!
that his county polled one of the1
largest votes of the district helped)
him in his lead. Mr. Stoll ran strong
in Williamsburg, his home county,
getting 1,135 votes; Mr. Mclnnes;
easily carried Darlington, his home,i
with 848; Mr. Stackhouse got the
votes of his home county, getting
50_; Mr. Evans and Mr. LeGrande!
were both from Marlboro and they,
consequently divided the larger vote|
of that county.
The race is close for second place
but it seems this morning that Mr.
Stoll will run against Mr. Sherwood j
on September 9. There is a good;
chance of Mr. Mclnnes or Mr. Stack-j
house eainine. but as the missing >
boxes ae divided among each of the I
counties,' it looks as if Mr. Stoll'sl
present lead will be sufficient to put:
him in the second race.
