S. Gov't Report EEV PURE The Boys Who Wore the Gray. According to, previous notice, the Confederate Survivors and Lexington Camp of the United Confederate Veterans, met in the court house, at - -- "? ' I X this place, last Monday, 10 irausauu the business for which they were called together. Every section of the county was represented, and as one stood at the door and glanced down the isles and saw the gray haired and grizzly bearded veterans assembled beneath the roof of the temple of justice, the scenes of other days, when these same men were in the spring time of their lives and responded to their country's call with bouyant steps, flashing eyes, and high spirits overflowing with patriotic devotion to their State and country. We stood gazing upon these battle scarred varans, nearlv all of whom had left some member of their body upon a field of pattle, and in memory was earned back to scenes when the bursting of shells, the rattle of musketry, the deep toned thunder of cannons belching forth fire, grape and cannister, the clash of sword as steel met steel, the shouts of the victors the curses of the vanquished; the groans of the wounded and the dying, the sightless eyes of the dead " ? i t j as tney turned ueaveu w?ru as ix m search of that place where strife, turmoil and bloodshed are unknown, and the white winged angle of peace overshadows the blessed land. To us the scenes of other days came vividly before U3 and we could j not help but recall the bloody fights around Charleston, in the sacred fields of Virginia, and the long tiresome marches through her fertile vallys with bleeding feet, tattered and torn garments, and starving bodies, and on many a hotly contested battle grounds in other sections, and with pathetic sadness we returned from the past and remembered that the cause for which these men gave I Lien VUUU^ uiauuuuu; ?uvu and their lives was a "Lost Cause'" and the bonnie blue flag which they immortalized by a sacrifice of blood and devotion was furled; but thank God no taint of hishonor attaches to it which will cause the blush of shame to mantle ovef cheeks or cause our children and our children's children to regret that, we offered our all upon that altar of cur count/y. Capt S. M. Eoof, a one-armed veteran whose empty sleeve bears testimony to his gallantry and fidility, .. - 1 S~* A presided over ttie meeting ana uapt. M. D. Harman, the faithful devoted and enthusiastic member of the Old 20th, acted as Secretary-. The Survivors met in obedience to the State pension law to elect two of their number, who with tho Auditor and Treasurer, will constitute the Pension Board with a practicing physician to be elected by the four named above, who will be the fifth member. Rev. N. S. Younginer and Col. D. T. Barre were appointed tellers. The following were elected members of the Board: Capt. J. H. Counts, and Dr. S. A. Haltiwanger. The Board will meet, according to law, on the 20th day of April, to organize when notice for the reception of application for pension will be given through these columns. There being no other business, the Survivors adjourned. "UNITED CONFEDERATE VETERANS. Immediately after the adjournment of the Survivors, Lexington Camp No. 668, United Confederate Veterans was called to order by the Commandant, Capt. S. M. Roof. The purpose of this meeting was the election of delegates to the Charleston convention, which meets April 23rd, and to the Richmond reunion which meets June 30th, and July 1st and 2nd. The following invitation was read by Adjutant M. D. Harman: Richmond, V A., March 25,1896. To the United Confederate Veterans Everywhere: Your Sixth Annual Reunion will be held at Richmond, Virginia, on the 30th June, 1st and 2d days of July next. "Widely scattered since the war by the ties of family and old-time firesides, by the demands of business, by i your natural energies, and by the necessities of life, you are coming . home?home to the city which is 1 yours by the supreme tests j of the rain of fiie the ( through which you went, and of ( sea of blood through which you passed, on the mission of her and the common defence. You have been no prodigal sons, for you inherited only the remnants of a rapacious ravage that was rampant everywhere in your land; because you had nothing left but the manhood from which you were inseparable. But the fatted calf shall be killed for you, and we shall be merry together, not because i " of pity for your sins, but because pride in your fame demands. You shall traverse again the streets which thrilled to the tread of your legions while they were passing to the ranks of the best army that the world ever knew. You shall be confronted by the Virginians who were the comrades of your immortal glory and who are your brothers forever. You shall see again the women who nufsed you back to vigor from the feebleness of wounds and want, from the wretched woe of your losses, and who pointed the dying gaze of your fellows to the heaven which stooped to enfold them. Your eyes shall behold for themselves the city which proudly wrapped herself in your patriotic flames, from which she has emerged a thing of beauty and a joy for always. You shall revisit the battlefields which have been consecrated by your blood, and where, if you lost your country, you found a fame that fills fliA wnrld. Heartily helped by our city and her citizen?, we are building for you a place of reunion in which ten thousands of you may make the welkin ring to the music of Dixie and to the chorus of the Rebel yell. On somo appropriate day of the Reunion you shall be part and parcel of the rearing of that monument which shall be to Jefferson Davis, not merely because he was your President and dwelt as such in the capital of your Confederacy, but because he was the unspeakable type of that ineffable manhood which made the armies of tho South. During your stay here there will be many a bivouac, where, not in bravado or disloyalty, but for sweet memory's sake, will be sung over again the old songs, told over again the old tales, fought over the old fights, yelled again the old yell, and raised again the old flag. Come, then. Come to our hearts and homes and to these bivouacs. Before we pass to the great beyond we ought to have one more bout and toast together. The toast shall be to our own memories and to our Confederate comrades wherever they may be; but it shall carry along with it a brave blessing for our fellow[ oitizpns everywhere. a determined devotion to the safety, honor, and welfare of the entire country. Peyton Wise, Chairman. The delegates to the Charleston convention are: Capt. J. H. Counts, Paul P. Clark, Capt. S. M. Roof, Dr. W. T. Brooker, and F. W. Oswalt. The probability is that a large number of the veterans of this county will avail themselves of this opportunity to visit the beautiful and hospitable city by the sea, and go over again the places where they stood guard over the approaches to the city; in those days which tried men's souls. Those to the Richmonds reunion are: Rev. N. S. Younginer, Dr. C. E. Leaphart, D. T. Hare, M. D. HarmaD, Jasper S. Derrick. Toe railroad leading to Richmond have arranged to grant a rate of one cent a mile for each mile traveled to all visiting military and Confederate organizations attending these ceremonies, and quarters will be furnished all visiting organizations. All survivors can go to Richmond at the same railroad fare and receive the same hearty welcome as delegates if they will arrange to go in a body by notifying Adjutant Harman in time for him to notify the chairj man of arrangement at Richmond. The Camp donated $2 to an indi! erent comrade and authorized com rade P. H. Craps to look after him and notify the camp if any farther assistance was needed. Alliance No. 810.

Holloway will receive the news of his painful accident with sorrow and regret. Last week while mounting his horse, the horse threw his head up striking the Colonel in the forehead, breaking a bone. But little hopes are entertained for his recovery. A new scheme to raise money for nhurr.hes is for the members of the congregation to drop into the basket as many pennies as agrees with their age. At a recent diversion of this kind, the men dropped their pennies into one basket and the women deposited their offerings into another. The minister said, after counting the collection, that up to that time he had no idea the female portion of his congregation was so youthful. His Back Almost Broken.

"Did you notice the man who just passed us?" asked a gentleman of a reporter.* "Yes, what about him?" said the reporter. "How old would you take him to be?" "Oh, about thirty-five, I guess." "Well, you have made the same mistake that many others have made. That is Mr. Geo Bradley, and he is fifty years of age." A few days later the reporter was introduced to Mr. Bradley and com mented on his youthful appearance. He seemed pleased, and in explaining the reason for it, incidently told of a once serious accident to himself. "It will be twenty years next spring,"continued Mr. Bradley, "that I was breaking up land for cotton in the northern part of the State, and my plow stuck under a large pine root. I loosed my plow and told my three boys to have the root pulled up 1 I? -w ? T nnmn n rnn n r\ o nro l n Uy LUC UUiC X Larno aiuuuu When I returned I found the root still there, and thinking the boys were not tryiDg to get it up, I told them to get out of the way and I would pull it up myself. "I grabbed it with both hands and gave a jerk which broke it and almost did the same with my back. I had to quit work for some time, in fact, I was never able to do any more very laborious work. I suffered all the time. I tried several doctors and many methods of treatment, but nothing would ease the terrible paiD I suffered. Night and day it was the same. "I moved to Massachusetts and stayed there several years, during which time I tried several more doctors, bat with the same disappointing results. I came to this place fifteen years ago, aud had become almost a physical wreck. I suffered most excruciating pains and had given up all hope of ever being well again. One day last year I saw an account of a similar case which had been cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I decided to try them. I purchased six boxes, and by the time I had taken them, I was entirley free from pain and had gained twenty pounds, and I have never been troubled since with my back." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People are considered an unfailing specific for such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the after effects of la grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow complexions, that tired feeling resulting from nervous prostration; all diseases resulting from vitiated humors in the blood, AUvArtin firrcinoloci SUCH US bUXUlUltt} V/UIUiii\j v-i j } etc. They are also a specific for troubles peculiar to females, such as suppressions, irregularities, and all forms of weakness. In men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental worry, overwork, or excesses of whatever nature. Dr. Williams' Pin1* Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent postpaid on receipt of price, 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 (they are never sold in bulk cr by the 100), by addressing Dr. "Williams' Medicine Co., Schenectady. N. Y. ?- ? ? - V ' Voices of the Resurrection. One of the most enjoyable, pleasing and instructive Easter services ever held in this place, was that rendered by the officers, teachers and scholars of St. Stephen's Sunday school, last Sunday evening. For the past several weeks the i school has been doing some hard practicing under the instruction of Mrs. Emma Kaminer, rehersing i "The Voices of the Resurrection," an Easter service of scripture and songj s . ... . ; and the public naturally expected a rich treat in the rendidition of this popular and attractive service and in this expectation, we are glad to say, they weie not in the least disappointed, and the large, refined and intelligent audience which gathered in the church was unanimous in its praise of the splendid manner in which the service was rendered. The church was elaborately deco rated with beautiful hot house flowers, the festoons were graceful hung and the motth "Voices of the Resurrection." prettily displayed to advantage. The childi en of the Methodist and Baptist Sunday schools having received written invitations, the latter attened in a body and the former met at the church.
