Griffia about a year ago was called in Court in Columbia last Monday but continued on motion of the defense because of the absence of material witnesses. w A Noble Christian Has Gone. The sad intelligence of the death of Dr. D. Lather Boozer, a native cf this county, but for a number of years a resident of Columbia where he successfully practiced his dental profession. Lately he removed to Newberry where, he together with his two youngest sons, established and successfully operated a roller flour mill plant, and died at 5:45 in the afternoon of June 2Gtb, aged about G5 years. Dr. Boozer was a man of lofty Christian character, and was active in every movement tending to elevate fallen humanity and to improve his moral and spiritual con dition. As an advacate of the doctrine of total abstinence he waged a relentless warfare against the traffic of whiskey and his earnestness in this direction commenced his work to the moral philanthrophist and placed him in the foremost rank in the Christian army. Dr. Boozer has served his day and generation well and the full influence of his well spent life can never be fully estimated until the Master comes to make up his jewels. The world was made batter by his sojourn in it, but his work was finished and the battle fought, and God has called him to partake of those higher and everlasting joys which cluster in rich and l.nn.nnt' 1 n rn vi urAn in tVlD far OCE7CT7 I ilOglOUO tuw .L..

W. Barre, who together with five eons and a sister, Mrs. J. J. Lown, of this county, survive him. His remains were taken to Columbia and interred in Elmwood cemetery. Important Enterprise. The Secretary of State has issued a commission to the Saluda Biver Electric and Construction Company of Batesburg, in Lexington county, which is to furnish electric lights, power, etc. The corporators are: A. Gamewell LaMotte, of Columbia, and J. William Mitchell and E. F. Strother of Batesburg. The capital stock is not stated. Mr. A. Gamewell LaMotte, is a successful young business man and rising civil ongineerof Columbia, and Messrs. Mitchell and Strother are well known young financiers of Batesburg, and they have without exception carried all their undertakings to a successful completion. Such is their reputation that their names used in connection with any enterprise inspires confidence and gives it strength, it is safe to say, therefore, that they will push the present project. The enterprise will bo a paying investment to its stockholders. We hope the day is not for in the distance when Batesburg and Lexington will be brought into closer business and social relations through the instrumentality of an electric railway. ? Death of Mr. Jeff Shull. Another good and useful citizen of Lexington county has ceased his labors on earth to enter into the joys of heaven. Mr. Jeff Shull, who resided fit TSrnnlvland. died Wednes day at his home in that place and | was buried at St. David's on Thurs- < day. Mr. Shull was a man of sturdy I and industrious habits and lived up to i the ecriptuai injunction of doing unto j others what he would have others to i do unto him. He discharged all the j duties of citizenship as he conceived ! to be for the best interest of his State and county was true to the ordinances of bis church and the laws of his ; God. He builded a pretty home near St. David's church where he resided up to a few years ago when he purchased a home in Brooklsnd, moved there and remained there ' until his last sickness prostrated him ; upon a bed of sickness and death. i > + > Masonic Meetings.

Fox, who has been ; employed by Mr. W. P. Roof for the past seven years, as book-keeper and teller of Lexington Savings Bank, has resigned his position. Mr. Fox's failing health last summer caused Mr. Roof to shorten his office hours, requiring him to work from 9 a. m. to 4 p. m. The increasing business of Mr. Roof now requires all of Mr. Fox's time, which he cannot give to it, by reason of the close confinement, which his health will not allow. He and Mr. Roof regret to sever their business relations which has covered quite a number of years, yet it is by the consent of both that a change is made. Mr. Fox has already had a similar position offered him, but be will take a rest during the summer months and devote his time entirely to his lumber and insurance business, and to other matters just now claiming his attention. Mr. Smith of Columbia succeeds Mr. Fox as book-keeper and teller of Lexington Savings Bank. Notice.
