The Lexington Dispatch | Burned April 25th; rebuilt July 10. 1894. G. M. HARMAN. Editor and Pub'ishor. LEXINGTON. S. C.. W?T NFS DAY. SEPTEMBER 6. 1899. A Pags frcn the Past. To the Editor of the Dispatch: Mr. C.-S. Roof is moving his milling locations from the ?cuth Bourd to the Southern Railway, which is dow beiDg built across our couDty. He has purchased a tract of land from Mr. CL S. Bradford on -Cedar creek, which i8 almost as famous as ! Pond branch. Mr. Rjof is makiDg an effort for a town on his lands. They were once owned by the wealthy Harth family and once teemed with life and industry from slave labor. The older Hartbs were remarkable men for business and from them many noble men and women have been born to bless their day and generation. The first one who ever landed in Charleston was named John, who was a barber by trade. When he reached the City by the Sea, it is said, he had but one Spanish crown in money, and with these few cents and unlimited industrv. he finallv boueht many thous and acres of laDd and several hundred slaves. The "old plantation'' and residence was once in Lexington lut is now in Aiken, just opposite the mouth of the famous Pond branch. It is told of him that in the days of the loDg ago he brought a mechanic from London, England, to build him a mansion on that place whose name was Cobysair. The building was for -that day a marvel of mechanical skill. When Cobysair's job was ended and the Englishman was about to leave for home, the last parting was amusing. Taking each other firmly by the hand, Harth said: "Goodbye, Cobysair." "Good-bye, old p friend," said Cobysair. "We'll never meet again till we meet in heaven,*' said Harth. "D?d lucky, sir," said Cobysair, "if we meet each other there," and with eyes bedimmed with tears without other words the friondfl tr? mppt. nn mnro T have heard mv mother ?ay that her father "was present and witnessed the affectionate farewell between these two friends one evening after sun down at the mouth of Hi llow creek, and the Englishman took board on a raft to make his way to Charleston on his voyage to England, and Harth made his way back to his mansion, about a mile distant. While this mansion was the homestead they owned broad acres and slaves by dozens elsewhere. Near the land now owned by C. S. Roof, and on a tract still owned by a grand daughter, Mrs. Henry A. Meetz#1, of Lexington, stands a persimmon tree "rider which, on a hot day in June, one of the younger brothers took a fair "fist and skull" fight with the overseer on the place. He was over from home looking after his business and a disagreement occurred between him and the overseer. The hired man said he did not have a fair chance, his wages and position were both in jeopardy and as he was a poor man and his family needed both, but it was- hard for him to take. The boss replied that neither was in danger and that his wages should go on and his position be retained even if he was "the best man," and he could have a fair tight if he desired one. The overseer took his "banter" and two whites?the boss and the overseer?called some of the negroes from near by to see fair play to both and to allow neither to brutally beat the other in anger. Haith was much the older man but for several rounds the result was in great doubt, but finally the old man shouted, "I have done my best, Sharp, and I believe you are the be3t man," and tuvring to the faithful negroes be said, "boys, I give it up." Interference was immediate and the overseer declared that he was "powerful ready to quit.'' No feelings were broke, no friendship sacrificed and no con fidence lost between the combatants. The overseer got his wage3 and held bis position in business and in confidence and afterwards the landlord I gave him a hundred acres of land cornering near and taking in the renowned Clay Spring?, the headwaters of Little Pond branch. That overseer was M:ke Sharp, well known to all the older citizens of this county. It was long a pride and boast of bis Degroes how "ole master'' could fight and boasted greatly cf what a man Mr. Sharp was, too.

A strange incident occurred at the Wesley Grove church, about seven miles from Walletboro, Sunday afternoon. The colored congregation being engaged in its regular Sunday worship, one of the brethren, John Gadsden, was called upon to lead in prayer.

The most magnificent tomb in the world is the Traj Mahal, in Agra, Hindoostan. It was erected by Shah Jehan to tie memory of his favorite queen.

Religion is a necessary and indispensable element in aDy great human character. There is no living without it. R-ligion is the tie that connects man with his Creator and him to His throne.
