wmmmmmmtmmmmmaammmmmmmmmmmmmm The Lexington Dispatch ffc Burned April 25th; rebuilt July 19,1894. o I G. M. HARMAN. Editor and Publisher. LEXINGTON. S. C., WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 6. 1901." f t : r t Rejoinder. * To the Editor of the Dispatch: Nearly one hundred and twenty ? years have passed since Emily Gei- j ger's famous ride, and to write the f story at this late day with absolute l accuracy would be difficult if not im- ( possible. Those who read the sketch , which appeared recently will recall that it w^s stated in an explanatory < note that the story was believed to be j true from information acquired after < diligent research, and that it was substantially true beyond controversy, j Mr. A S. Sally undertakes to show ] that the story as told does not con- < form to the records. A careful exam- 1 , - ination cf the quotations, submitted will show that he has failed to estab- i lish his position? That Sum!er was on the. Broad? '< . y riot "east" of it?five miles below Lyle's Ford and near the present ? Lexington line, on the 25th of June, < does not effect the question at issue. He was then en route to relieve ] Greene who was retiring before ] Rawdon. When Rawdon declined i farther pursuit he was no longer 1 needed at that point. Whether or not the body of Greene's army yas east of the Broad on the '20th of June is not material. The sketch shows that on the morning of July 2nd (when Emily started * t x ^ on her mission), Grtene was in aouoi as to tbe locality of Sumter. If Greene had heard from Sumter-since June the 25th?one week before? Mr. Sally does not show it. Again, Sumter wrote to Greene on July 2nd, "I thought it necessary to take a turn through the upper R^gi ments of my Brigade"?This evi- 1 dently without Greened knowledge, or ' the explanation would have been su- ' perfluous. It ought not to be assumed that 1 Sumter took with him his forces * with which he had been operating between the Broad aDd Saluda rivers 1 . while taking hi3 "turn'' all ths way to the Waxhaws on the N. C. line [ and thence by way of Hanging Rock 1 to Camden. It is easy to believe 1 that Sumter left his command on the Broad under instructions to move direct to Camden where he would meet 1 them after hi3 tour among the "up- ^ per Regiments." When he wrote on the 4'h of July * from "near Hanging Rock'' he was 1 manifestly moving southward? c Now Hanging Rock is perhaps eighteen miles from CamdeD,. (not ^ twenty fioey), and as he was "near" * it he may have been even nearer the 1 end of bis j jurney. . At any rate he would easily ride to the Wateree by three P. M, the hour at which Emily reached his camp?Sumter in his letter of the F 2ad of July announced his purpose to 1( go ta the Waxhaws. Greene did not ^ know that morning that Sumter was e "in Lancaster county above him." t It is thus seen that all the records ? quoted may be true and yet not v t necessarily inconsistent with occur- A rences related in the sketch. The substance of the story is that o Emily rode part of three days; was p arrested and searched the second t; day; and delivered her message od p the 4th of July the fifth anniversary 6 of the Declaration of American Independence. The descendants of the earlier Geigers are living near the original Homestead?The family has i long been wealthy and influential There are among them now those who are educated, refined, and cultured and who have heard th8 familiar story from friends and relatives who were contemporary with Emily Gii- i ger, and who knew her intimately Their character for truthfulness has not been, and canDotnow be, brought in question. The writer would more t easily believe that contemporaneous c records were erroneous in some instances than question for a moment ^ the sources from which the essentials t of the story were derived. Mr. Sil- j ley's avowed object "to preserve the ^ truth," is praiseworthy. The auiQor of the sketch hopes it ( is unnecessary ij say that he would not make a statement over his signature or otherwise unless convinced thit it was true. He wrote in the f beginning that he held himself ready ( to correct errors which were shown to be errors. It is honestly believed that the truth wiil not he fully "preserved" f until Emily G?igers famous ride ^ g >es on the record as one of the . i : a. f moSj lnieresunjr moments ui tut; Revolutionary War. f W.

Hurrah for the farmers who are 30wing more grain and not planting so much cotton, for they are the ones who have brought the price where it is. If all we farmers of the Southern States would do this we could live much better. But no, wo will go and plant cotton on the same piece of*ground year after year and never sow it to grain, and the consequences are the land is just killed by not sowing it and letting it rest. . .
