Mark: Toney, which occurred at a wide ly-known sanitarium in Chester on January the 8th, Edgefield county lost oua of its most valua ble citizens. A braver, truer, no bler man than Mark Toney, this county has never known. There was notning sordid or selfish iu his nature. Whether in the homo circle, in his community or in the affairs of the county, he was al ways broad-mirj ded, generous, self-sacrificiug. Because of bis many noble traits, Mr. Toney was honored and esteemed far above the average of men. At the time of his death Mr. Toney W?>S 60 y?>ars of age. When the Civil War broke out he en listed in his country's cause and rendered distinguished service during the four years of bloody conflict. During the subsequent years of peace, it matters not what exigency has arisen, Mr. Toney has been ever ready to do his duty in promoting the best in terests of his immediate section, of his county and state. Besides a very devoted wife, Mr. Toney leaves three sons, Wil liam, Danlzler and Mark, Jr., and two daughters, Mrs H. Kirkland and Miss Harriet Toney. Homicide Near Sleeting Street.

Mr. Bryant promptly surrendered to the sher iff, and bis attorney, J. Wm. Thurmond, Esq., wrnt to Colum b a cn Tu sday to apply for bail before tbe supreme court. The Charming Woman is not necessarily one of per-, feel form and features.
