Lexington county has the reputation of having some of as fine horses, mules, cattle and sheep as can be found in this State and much interest has been taken by the management to arouse a deeper interest in this department and the consequence is that these exhibits will be larger and finer than any year heretofore.

AlleD Griffith was birn March 10, 1822, and died September 28, 1903, aged 81 years, 5 months and 18davs. He was married to Sarah G. Hanks January 24, 1843 To them were born 9 children, 5 living and 4 dead. Those living are all well known and highly respected, viz: D. J Griffith, T. F. Griffith, John A. Griffith, Mrs. Mary Keisler and Mrs. Emma Oswald. He was a member of StPaul's Evangelical Lutheran church and was loyal and true to it until death. Thus another good citizen has passed from time into eternity. The funeral services were conducted by the pastor in St. Paul's church and his remains laid to rest in the family burying ground near the church. TTT TT T> YV. JUL. X\.
