TO THE SOUS
OP VETERANS.
Division Commander George Bell Timmerman
Names His Staff?Plans
for the Organization.
Mr. George Bell Timmerman, who
was elected commander of the South
Carolina division of the United Sons
of Confederate Veterans at the meeting
of the organization held during the
recent reunion has issued his first general
order assuming command and
naming the appointments of the members
of his stag. In addition to those
named in the order he will later appoint
a division commissionary and a
division inspector and other aids and
assistants.
Mr. Timmerman states that it is his
desire to bring the Sons up to a higher
state of organization and to increase
the membership. He thinks it important
to keep the necessity and good of
the body before the eyes of those
whose sires fought for the revered
cause and in this way believes that
those who are now indifferent may
become interested and join in the
work. The most definite object now
in view is to arouse interest in the proposed
trip to Richmond during the
next general reunion and Mr. Timmerman
will devote bis chief efforts
to the success of this plan.
The order issued under date of June
4 is as follows:
Headquarters South Carolina Division
United Sons o^Confederate Veterans
Lexington, S. C., June 4,1906.
General Orders No. 1.
Having been elected division commander
of the South Carolina division
of the U. S. C. V. at the recent convention
held during the annual reunion
of Confederate veterans, Columbia,
S. C., in May, I therefore assume
command of this division, and headquarters
are hereby established at
Lexington, S. C.
l ta?e this hrst opportunity of extending
my thanks to those of my
comrades j who did me the honor to
place me at the head of an organization
that has its purpose the promulgation
of such a worthy cause. I trust
that in the undertaking I shall make
to revive an interest in this organization,
I shall have the hearty co-operation
of every son of a Confederate
veteran.
I ask this because I conceive it to
be a privilege that we enjoy and
should appreciate to see to it that history
properly records the records of
the Confederate soldiers.
In accordance with section 29 of the
general constitution I hereby announce
the following appointments:
D. A. Spivey, Conway, adjutant and
v r ~ r a i r j t t\ t ~
in sum; -riiireu. o. rui.,
ton. assistant adjutant and chief of
staff; C. Wardlaw Moorman, Columbia,
division quarter master; A. C.
DePass, Columbia, division judge advocate;
Dr. Ryan A. Gyles, Blackville,
division surgeon; Rev. Melton
Clark, Florence, division chaplain;
W. S. Cogburn, Edgefield; Isaac
Hough, Camden, and W. A. Shealy,
Leesville, aides. These appointments
rank from June 1, 1906.
By order of
George Bell Timmerman,
Com. S. C. Division U. S. C. V.
Official:
D. A. Spivey,
Adint.fl.nt, fmd PViipf of fttflff
The appointment of the members of
his staff which have not yet been made
will be announced in a short time
when Mr. Timmerman will also have
other matters of interest to call to the
attention cf the division.
The Very Best Remedy for
Bowel Trouble.
Mr. M. F. Borroughs, an old and well
known resident of Bluffton, Ind., says:
"I regard Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy as the very best
remedy for bowel trouble. I make this
statement after having used the remedy
in my family for several years. I am
never without it." This remedy is almost
sure^to be needed before the summer
is over. Why not buy it now and
be prepared for such an emergency? For
sale by Kaufmann Drug Co.
Mr. I. W. Bcykin Writes a
Letter.
The members of the former State
board of directors of the dispensary
have not appeared before the investigating
committee in answer to the invitation
of the committee. Mr. L. W.
Boykin was present yesterday, but did
not go on the stand. Col. John Bell
Towill was present the day that Mr.
C. C.[Davis, of Newberry, testified to
the matters which have excited so
much comment. Mr. H. H. Evans hi a
taken apparently little interest in the
investigation, as he has not been in
Columbia recently. No return was
made bv him vesterdav through his
attorneys.
At the meeting of the committee
Thursday afternoon, Mr. R. H. Welsh
of the law firm of Bellinger & Welsh
appeared and presented a return for
Mr. Boykin and a separate return for
Mr. Towill. The two are identical in
language, but are not signed jointly.
| Columbia, S. C., June 16, 1906.
Hon. J. T. Hay, chairman, and other
members of the committee appointed
to investigate the affairs of the State
dispensary.
Gentlemen: In response to your invitation,
if I so chose, to appear before
your committee today for the
purpose of making any statement that
I de9ire to make concerning my former
connection with the State dispensary *
I beg to say that I prefer that your
investigation should proceed uninfluenced
by any statement that I might
make. The more thorough and secarching
the investigation is made, the more
certain will the correctness of my conduct
be demonstrayed. I am not only |
anxious to see the investigation pro- '
ceed in the most rigid manner but I
should be much disappointed if it did
nv_?u uu ou. iiiuccu, liUilllUitWllg (IS 1U ^
might be. I challenge the closest
scrutiny of my conduct before any
tribunal before which it can be made.
I have no fear that those who know
me will believe that I have done anything
that has been either illegal or
immoral. Instances in which honorable
men might differ with me in judgment
may, and perhaps will be discovered.
Wrong cannot be, for it does
not exist. While I have keenly felt
the injustice and the cruelty of some
of the suggestions which have been I
made in relation to my former connection
with the dispensary. I am
confident that when the scruting has
been made complete that even those
who do not know me will reach a like
conclusion with those who do.
At a future day and when it can
have no influence upon the action of
-your committee it is my purpose to
send you a written statement cover- .
in? the matters that I deem of con3
< r
sequence, which I shall ask you to re- 1
gard as part of this communication
and which I shall ask you to file as a
part of your report.
Very respectfully,
L. W. Boykin.
Cured of Brigit's Disease. 1
Geo. A. Sherman, Lisbon Bed Mills, a
Lawrence Co., N. Y., writes: "I had ^
kidney disease for many years and had I
been treated by physicians for twelve
' years; had taken a well known kidney
medicine and other remedies that were
recommended but got no relief until I
began using Foley's Kidney Cure. The
first half bottle relieved me and four
bottles have cured me of this terrible disease.
Before I began taking Foley's
Kidney Cure I had to make water about
every fifteen minutes, day and night, .
and passed a brick-dust substance, and
sometimes a slimy substance. I believe t
I would have died if I had not taken
Foley's Kidney Cure." The Kaufmann "

G. G. Watson shot and seriously ^
wounded his son-in-law, N. V. Drand- j
ridge in Darlington on last Thursday. ,
Dandridge had come to Watson's to *
see his children, he and his wife hav- |
ing separated some time age?and
