To the Editor of the Dispatch:
f
The tiered showers have come and i
oh, how glad we are.
Cotton is not ail up and not even j
all planted; corn not all up; gardens j
needed rain very much, but now look i
refreshed; wheat looks promising.
Mrs. B. P. Tajlor is visiting rela- j
tives on Black creek.
Mr. R. E. Miller, Traveler and j
their families went fishing Saturday i
last and caught a few of the finny |
tribe.
( Well, as to Mr. Qaattlebaum's re- :
ply in your paper some time ago. I
He said that I bad put Sfeadman
and the people down as thieves. I
deny the charge, as the readers of
the Dispatch know. I said there
were some honest men at Steadmau.
This was Dot putting the Steadman
' people down as thieves. But what I
6aid about oertain things disappear,
ing by the slight of hand, I still ssy
the same thing, and can get the
Dames of lumber men who will say
they lost plenty cf lumber at Steadman.
Why did Mr. Quattlebaum
get offended at what I said when
plenty others of the place said it did
not offend tbem in the least? There
is a wide difference in meat and lard
being locked up in a bouse and lurn1
ber aDd wood put down by the railroad
side.
Uncle Jacob Kjser and I think
of going to the reuuion at Charleston.
We were glad to shake the hands
of so many of our old friends at Lexington
last Monday week ago.
The fruit crop will be short this
year with us especially peaches, but
wfl are watching the blackberries
wishfully.
Well, the dogwood blossoms have
come and gone aDd we have nofc seen
the Editor on the Edisto. No doubt
the finny tribe have been watching
for him. Traveler.
[We have changed our course and
will report later.?Ed. Dispatch.]
Ojr town still continues to be overrun
by commercial men. ThiB is
conclusive evidence that the business
of Lexington is in a healthy condition.

may make a wise selection and possibly
vote more intelligently.
Mr. Editor, we wish to say to the
politician that hereafter instead of
signing our name "B" we will make
it "B. B. H." W7e do this in o?-der
that the politician may not (ffend
our preacher in town on tb? tree's.
