(Obituary.
Dakiei. Drafts, a sou of Jacob Drafts,
was born on the 14th of Maj, 1803. He
was dedicated to God by holy baptism in
infancy, instructed in the prineples of the
Christian religion in his yonth. In early
life entered into fall commanion with the
Evangelical Lutheran Church. About the
year 1830 he was intermarried with Miss
Julia Wingard, with whom he became the
father of twelve children, eight sons and
four daughters. After the deatb of his
consort in 1863, he was intermarried with
Mi9s Henrietta A. Hayes,December the 20th, f
1864, with whom he became the father of
three children, one son and two daughters.
He departed this mortfti me on ujb uu i
April, 1888, at the ripe age of four score
and 4 years, 10 months and 3 days. He
leaves to mourn their loss in this sad bereavement,
an only sister, a disconsolate
widow, with ten bereaved children. He
was a kind hiisband, a tender father, aif
upright and obliging neighbor, and a most
excellent citizen; one that will be much
missed by the people among whom fce
lived; none knew him but to esteem and
praise him. He was one of those fathers in
Isreal, who helped to get up and organize
the first Church Council or Conference
that was held in the Lutheran Church in
this ponah'v; --Be was a ruling Elder in
the church to which he was so devotedly
att&hed, and in which he led such exemplary
life for more than 40 years in' sue-?
cession, which shows the confidence his
brethren of the household of faith had in
him. His lifeless remains was conveyed to
Cedar Grove church cemetery on the 17th, 1
where his funeral services were rendered
by Rev D. Eflrd, assisted by Rev. Prof.
L. M. Little, and Rev. E. L. LjLwancL
Yes, there we, amidst tears and sorrows*
laid his cold body in the silent tomb, to
rest from all his labors until Christ shall
come and call the dead to live again.
Rest h body, .peace to his asbe<
glory to his immortal soul. ~t E.
Died at the residence of D. H. Wheeler,
in Lexington county, S. C., April 18,1888,
Mrs. Maby Ann Suxuek, of said county,
nearly 64 years of age, of a Complication cf
consumption and dropsy. She was a
daughter of J. Simon Wheeler, and according
to old german custom at her infant
baptism Geo. Mayer and wife acted as
sponsors. Having approached years of
maturity she was confirmed a member of
St. Peter's Evangelical Lutheran church,
and remained a consistent member of tne
same during her whole life. In the days of
heT bright, young womanhood she married
Levi Boland, and with him lived a quite
, and happy life until about 1866 when he
was called away to his eternal resting place.
For a period-of ten years during the most
trying time of our Southern history she
' bravely met the stern problems of life
single handed and alone, and during that
3 time her industry and economy was apparent
to even casual observer. After this
she married Wm. Summer, who lived only
a few years, and tfcen at His master's bid3
ding laid down the armor of battle. ' Now
too she has gone, and leaves her friends
if and relatives no large sums of money oi
j. broad acres, but something more than al
them: a name unsullied, and a charactei
white as the driven snow, which ifimitatec
by her posterity will change this worli
from one of ti ouble to one of happiness
Her funeral services were conducted a

She was a woman of nuasualiy < gooi

and religions and charitable in her disp<
