Swansea Doing's,
To 1:he EJitor of the Dispatch:
W. H. Hilderbracd has leased the
Gantt Hotel and employed Mr a.
Mays, an accomplished l*dv, to conduct
the business of the hotel, and
the traveling public will find a convenient
and well kept inn for their
relief and comfort.
Oa the second Sunday the Methodist
Suaday school had Chi'.drens'
Day and the children acqu itted themselves
well and in credit. Hon. W.
H. F. Rist, the superintendent, and
Rev. Dukes made short addresses.
On the third Sue day R'-v. Vernou
I'Anson preached a sermon in the
Baptist church for the Junior Order
of.Uaited American Mechanics. He
= said in part that, the basal principle
and structure of the order was the
Holy Bible. Above this a3 a supertructure
was the American Constitution,
and above that as a crowning
coronation, the flig of our Republic.
Its motto seems to be America for
Americans, and care aDd relief to any
suffering member of the brotherhood.
No one can join but a native born
American male white citizen and
eighteen years old. The order seems
to have grown up in the m iddle Slates
and New England from the coLflict
there with the Roman Citholic3 in
trying to drive the Bible from the
j common schools and controlling the
j funds for the schooh.
Swansea has gotten one Rural
mail route and now another examination

An Old Citizen Cone.
We learn from the Edieto Record,
published at Wagener, that Mr. John
| Garvin, of Aiken county, died at his
; home on June 14th in the 91st year
| of his age. He was one of the oldest
| citizens of the Wegener section and
spent his life upon the farm. He
was a citizen of this county before
his township was cut off to form
Aiken county, and was well and
favorably known to many of our
citizens.
Canned Fruits and Vegetables.
Mr. Henry Ballentine and S. F.
Taylor have a canning plant in successful
operation two miles from this
place. They will can fruits and vegetables
either for half, or cans will be
furnished at 54 cents filled. This is
| an excellent opportunity for our peo!
pie to have their fruits, berries and
I vegetables canned for winter use.
