Mrs. Vi.-rner was in her thirty second year, having beeu born June 5th, 1865. She was a most ex cellent, lady, and numbered her friends by the score.

EDITOR: On Friday, the July 24th, I returned home from Glenn Spriugs where I had been for more than two weeks for rest an 1 recreation. Daring my stay at the Springs I was informed for the first lime in a letter from* my wife-that Mr. L. D.'White Lad been anuounced as a candidate for the House of Representatives. The first gentleman who met me after I reached home informed'me that it had been rumored that I had gone to Liberty Hill for the purpose of getting Mr. White to become a candidato with the view of accomplishing the defeat of the Hon. W. H. Yeldell. Under the circumstances my duty to Mr. White, and to Mr. Yelldell, de mands that I shall state, that there ia no justification whatsoever for this rumor. I did go to Liberty Hill on the first Saturday in July-or the 4th Saturday iu June. I do not remember which ; my exclusive purpose in going was to carry my little daughter who desired to spend her vacation with her grand mother. While at the homo of my mother I walked down to the store of Mr. Fuller, where I saw Mr. Fuller, Mr. L. D. White, Mr. T. J. Lyon, Mr. H. S. West, Mr. Press Strom, Mi. Jno. lalbert, Mr. Robert Quartes, aud other gentlemen whose names I do not recall. During my entire stay I did not say one word to Mr. White, except in the presence of one of the aboye gentlemen, and during the eu! ire time the matter of Mr. Whited candidacy was not mentioned by any person. It has been said to me also that the rumor is current that 1 wrote the card, signed by a number of gentlemen, by which Mr. White was announced. In reference to this I have only to say tbat I neither wrote, nor had any thin? to do with the writing of the card, nor did I ever see it until I read it in the paper after my return from Glei.-n Springs. I had hoped that the non-partizan ac tion of the constit utional convention, and the harmonious co-operation cf the members of the convention for the welfare of the people and the honor of the State would, result in a large meas ure in the restoration of the political unity of the white people of the State. Hence it is my purpose in tbe ap proaching primary election to vote a full ticket for the best men running for the respective offices, upon their merits only, uninfluenced by factional considerations, with the view of fideli ty in t he public officials, and efficiency in the public service. I hope, and L believe, that a large ma jority of the voters of Edgefleld coun ty will adopt the same policy, under the influence ol'the same motives. Very respectfully, J. C. SHKPPARO. Auggust 1,1896. OBITUARY. FRANCIS LOUISE YAR BROUGH. daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Yarbrough, was born in Edgefield County S. C,, March 15th 1891, and died July 5th, 1896.

C., and daughter of Maj. and Mrs. S. S.Tompkiusof Colum bia S. C., who departed this lite July 28th 1895 ONE YEAR AGO. What stars have faded from our sky ! What hopes unfolded but to die! What dreams so fondly pondered o'er, Forever lost the hues they wore ! How like a death knell sad and slow, Tolls throngh the soul "one year ago !" Where is the face we loved to greet, The form that graced the fireside seat, The gentle smile, the winning way,, That blessed our pathway day by day? Where fled those accents soft and low, Tiiat thrilled our hearts 'one year ago !' Ah ! vacant is the fireside chair, The smile that now no longer there, From door and hall, from porch and lawn, I'he echo of the voice is gone, And we who linger only know How much was lost "one year ago?" Beside her grave the flowers bright Keep silent guard by day and nigh! ! Serene she sleeps, nor heeds the tread Of footsteps o'er her lovely head ! Her pulseless breast no more may know Phe pangs of life '.one year ago." But why repine? A few more years, \ few more broken sighs and tears, A.nd we, enlisted with the dead, Shall follow where her steps have fled, Po that fair world rejoicing go ro which -?he passed "one year ago!" * * .
