To the Editor of the Dispatch: I regret to announce the death near here yesterday a. m. of Mrs. J. M. Collnmn. A good woman has been called to her reward. Her funeral will be preached at Bethlehem church today by Rev. Evans Hall and 6he will be buried in the Gunter cemetery, where now rest numbers of her friends and relatives who have [ been called before the summons came 3 to her. Rev. Dr. A C. Wilkins and John 1 Bell Towill left yesterday to attend 1 . rt. . r? tfie sessions or tne state baptist Convention which meets in Green- * ville tonight. t* Rev. J. D. Crout our Lexington boy, will go to Newberry tomorrow to be at the South Carolina Conference which convenes there Thursday. We trust 'he good bishop will | send John back here again, as we all want him, regardless of denomination. The Sollee-Asbill case is being * tried in Saluda today and several persons here are gone there in at- j tendance on court. A cold rain is falling today, a reminder that even the weather can be fickle and not always good. Oar efficient postmaster, J. Frank Kneece, has been swinging aroand the circle of late. We notice a Johnston correspondent calls him Prince. Well he is a Prince of good fellows, and the influence a pretty girl can wield over him has astonished those who ignorantly supposed him proof against each charms. It is reported that the factory will reBame its night work soon which will give additional employment to 1 those who wish to work. ^ The noise of the expiring porker is ^ heard in our land and our mouth waters for sausage, spare ribs and ^ souce, but water it may, for the thought of good things to eat is all, for nary a pig ever squeals around ^ our way.
