A great many reformers in this

AN INTERESTING OCCASION.
Col. I1 oik's Happy Remarks at
the Dedication of Mountain
Creek Baptist Church.
"Stick a pin down here," were
the words that once and often fell
from the lips Of the Rev. John
Trapp, one of the pioneer founders
and protectors of Mountain Creek
Church and who now lies buried
under that beautiful monument
in yonder graveyard, erected by
the grateful and worthy hands of
a loving people to a well-beloved
pastor of this church when Bhe
was young and needed just such a
father in Israel as I have been in
formed he was.
Mountain Creek went through
many vicissitudes of fortune dur
ing the life-time of John Trapp as
well as he did, but the good people
of this Mountain Creek country
always stood by this church and
John Trapp, MacMillan, Fant, Bus
sey, Ouzts, Miller and others I do
not now recall, and by ea2h other
and themselves, when the old log
church stood here upon this hal
lowed ground in the days of cid
as well as when the modern well
equipped house of God in which
we are to-day, confronts us all, full
of joyous and happy souls, from
far and near, ready to shed as it
has ever bbed its blessings of di
vine love over a smiling land some
times and a weeping land at times.
Nothing but. a united church peo
ple and a generous public can ac
copaplish such a work as this, that
meets our eyes and blesses our
hearts to-day, the dedication by a
God-loving and God-fearing mau
and a happy, prosperous and uni
ted people of a house of worship
like this to the Supreme Being of
the universe.
What a volume could be written,
dear friends-for yon are my
friends, as you have proven your
selves to be on more than one oc
casion, and for which allow me this
day once for all to thank you from
the bottom of my heart-could bf
written if the members of Moun
tain Creek, old, middle-aged and
present, could speak to us to-day.
A volume, it would be full of the
smiles and the tears, the ups and
downs of your community. Many
good and faithful sentinels, male
and female, on the watch-towers of
Zion have ceased to walk their ac
customed rounds in and around
Mountain Creek Church, since the
trees were first cut from the spi"1"
where we now sit aud stand, : ?

outpouring of the Divine/
opon Mountar-^K's ^nmr
hearts and minds. Whatathrov
?Uiaye passed from their earth
j pl?gYioage to the city of the de
since the firettynm was sung and
the first sermon was preached with
in these sacred precincts. If that
roll were called, filled with youl
best people in the days of yore,
scarcely a name when called would
b<* answered to as "present," but
now marked "absent" here as be
ing present with the Lord in the
realms on high. I am glad to tell
you however, (if that be a comfort)
and should be to many a heart and
soul here to-day, their names can
be answered to by their honored
children and their grandchildren
and their children's children, car
rying on the good work begun by
their forefathers and foremothers
three-quarters of a century ago, a8
this happy occasion abundantly
shows.
While Trapp, DeVor,e, Durst,

Ouzts, Faulkner, Callison, Shep
pard, Andrews, Aiton, Johnson,
Timmerman, Hol'ingsworth, Part

Holloway, Lewis, Corley, Self
Stallworth, Rambo and a number
Jess host of others have passed
ov?r the river and are now resting
under the shade of the trees, there
are yet ai.d still here to-day, for I
see their bright faces and cherry
hearts all around me, who are just
as faithful and loyal soldiers of
the Cross under the Captain of our
Salvation as ever they were, for
they have learned that valuable
lesson that should never be for
gotten, but written in letters of
gold upon every heart and upon
the door posts of every home in
Edgefield and South Carolina and
everywhere, so as to be remember
ed forever, that the highest type
of manhood and womanhood
known to civilized man or woman
to-day and so acknowledged every
where, ?B that of the child-like
humble Christian on his knees iu
prayer and supplication to Him
that lives forever, aud gave His
only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to
die on the Cross that men and wo
men, like you and I, and every
where on the earth, might live with
Him, if saved thereby, forever and
forever in the joys of the Lord.
Pardon me in saying what I can
not help from saying here to one
thousand people or more this day?
that Gray township has produced
one of the grandest and noblest
heroines I have ever seen or read
of, in the person of Mrs. Lizzie
Ouzts, who now lies sleeping in
Abraham's bosom, but living in the
hearts of all these people, and
what she did I leave the Rev.
Jesse L. Ouztu and her other sons!
to answer, who now sit in the
"heavenly pisces" on earth, reared
as they were, by that Godly woman
with the husband dead on the field
of battle in defence of his country
and four little helpless boys, dig
ging a living out of the poorest
ground in all your township.
In behalf of the trustworthy
trustees and deacons of Mountain
Creek church, I receive this church,
beautiful as it is, from the hands
of your Godly and faithful build
ing committee, and this church
through me for the trustees is now
and forever given to the Living
God and to the Rev. Geo. W. Bus
sey, its devoted pastor, and I say
herc and now in this large pres
ence, that this church with God in
it and with the aid of George Bus
sey and others to follow him, will
add more to the glory of God in
the future than it has ever done in
the past.
My exhortation to you, nothing
more, nothing less, is that all of
us may so live h?re and so die here,
that we may merit the plaudit:
"Well done thou good and faithful
servants" and on account thereof
be allowed to enter at last into
the "joys of our Lord."
"Pair Play" Says "Step Down
and Out."
MR. EDITOR-Dear ?ir: I want
to express my approval of "Home
Rule" and "Red Hill" published
in late issues of your valuable pa
per, as I am in full accord with
the sentiment therein expressed,
and believing as I do from what I
have heaTd, that it ie the feeling
of nine-tenths of Edgefield couuty.
I have not heard one single mau
express any other opinion, and I
have heard it discussed many
times, by many people, in many
places, and not ono have I heard
express any other sentiment than
that the Greenwood gentlemen,
holding Edgefield offices, ought to
step down and out. These patriotic
gentlemen may feel that the ?
would not be treating the dear
people right who put them in office.
I wonder if each of them got a ma
jority of the voters that are now in
Edgefield after taking Greenwood
off?
nr_ TTMWnr it. RfieniS to
ces. We know that the patriotism
of these gentlemen prompts them
to want to serve the dear people.
It seems that one of them in par
ticular is so patriotic as to want to
serve both Edgefield and Green?
wood, aud would not object to do
iug something for the State at the
same time if agreeable to all par
ties concerned. Or at least that is
the way it looks by his holding on
to one office and asking for others
at the same time. Be that as it
may, Mr. Editor, I am fully satis
fied that a large-yes, a very large
-majority of the people of Edge
field county think and desire that
as soon as an Edgefield man, and
an office holder, becomes a citizen
of Greenwood county (and espe
cially wjf?n he becomes so by his
own vote) he 6hould resign, and
let the office be filled by Edgefield
men. It really seems to me that
right, justice and common decency
demand it. What say you, fellow
citizens?
Respectfully,
FAIR PLAY.

EDITOR ADVERTISKB: By your
request and.in order to pjut at rest
some of your very much interested
and solicitous correspondente, I
respectfully ask you to publish the
following statement : .
The Constitution of South Caro
lina provides, Art. 3, See. 3: That
the "House of Representatives
sha.'l consist of one hundred and
twenty-four members * * * ."
''Provided further, That until'the
apportionment which shall be
made npon the next enumeration
shall take effect, tbe representa
tion of the several counties as thev
LOW exist (including the county of
Saluda) shall be as follows: Ab
beville 5, Aiken 3, Edgefiold 3,
Saluda 2, etc., etc. Provided fur
ther, That in the event other
counties are hereafter established,
then the General Assembly shall
reapportion the representatives be
tween the counties * * * ."
"Sec. 5. No apportionment of
representatives shall take effect
until the general election 'which
shall succeed such * apportion
ment."
And you will notice, that the
act passed by tho last session of
tho legislature establishing Green
wood county, does not provide for
full and complete county hood at
once. For instance: The county
board of commissioners, school
commissioners; clerk of the court
of Common Pleas, tho Court of
General Sessions, and all other
county officers of the counties of
Edg6field and Abbeville as they
stood and were organized prior to
the formation of the county of
Greenwood, shall have full juris
diction and power in and over the
people and the territory embraced
within the limits of Greenwood
county until after the officefB ?mall
have been appointed or elected, as
the case may; be, and .qualified,
etc., etc.; And the magistrates
shall be located as they now aie in
the terriiory covered by the ccunty
of Greenwood until otherwise pro
vided by law." Magistrates Gil
christ and Timmerman have now,
and will have jurisdiction until
after the next legislature, over
that portion of their districtfi, re
spectively, covered by the ccunty
of Greenwood.
The Constitution provides, as
shown above, Art. 3,f Sec. 5, that
nn rthnntr? nf l-ormaaanrnr.lnn e.an
in ureenwooa county to represent
the people of Edgefield county as
it is for a citizen of Edgefield
county, say "Home Rule" or "Red
Hill" to represent the people of
Greenwood county. And if your
correspondents, Mr. Editor, will
search the record and make a .little
inquiry they can find out who it
was that looked after Edgefield
county affairs during the last ses
sion of the legislature. The citi
zens of Cooper, Gray and Hibler
are free-born Americans, South
Carolinians, sons of old Edgefield,
your brothers,- Mr. Editor, and
would you disfranchise them?
I We are all proud of Edgefield,
proud of the men who have made
her history, and regret the neces
sity of our separation.- And in
taking our departure our hope and
prayer shall be that old Edgefield
may be as illustrious in the future
as she has been in the past.
Respectfully,
