We call attention to the advertise
jtyent of Mimnangh in this issue. This
grelat department store has grown to
such an extent that plans are now
under way to greatly enlarge it. The
people of Lexington have long since
learned to go to Mimnaugh's for barr
. gains of all descriptions.

We beg to direct our readers atten1
tion to the advertisement of E. A.
Eargle, a popular merchant of Peak,
in this issue. He has one of the most
> j. complete lines of general merchandise
to be found in the Dutch Fork and
his prices are always as low as the
lowest. Be sure to give him a call.
He will treat you right.
Telephone Lines.
The county will soon be linked toi*
gether by a net work of telephones.
Gilbert has recently enstalled a complete
telephone system and the lines
are being extended out in the country
on both sides of the railroad. It is
the intention of those interested to
continue the line from Gilbert down
"Rlaot r?ropt anH anrnss to Pelion and
* thence across to Swansea. The peo^
pie are very much interested in the
movement. These line9 can be built
at a very small cost, when the farmt
ers furnish the poles and assist in
placing the line.
The Dutch Fork section has a system
of phones and the line is at present
being extended to the river by
parties living on the other side. It is
said that those living on this side of
the river will bring the line to this
t place.
These lines with phone connections
will make it convenient, and thev
* should be built as early as possible.

L?r. Q. W. Williams of
Chapin Passes Away.
Chapin, Nov. 30.?The little town of
| Chapin is in deep 9orrow over the
death of one of its best citizens,
1 George Washington Williams, on Sunday
morning. Mr. Williams was originally
from Winnsboro, being born in I
the year 1833. He was a painter by
profession. In 1857 he married Mis9
Mary E. Miller, daughter of Col. Hugh
Miller.
In 1861 Mr. Williams joined Company
H, Fifteenth regiment, South
Carolina Volunteers, and went forth
to fight in the cause of a principle
that he believed was right and in the
cause of his home land. He served
four years through the Civil war, taking
part in some of the hardest fought
battles of the war. He was wounded
in the leg at the battle of Antietam
or Sharpsburg on September 17, 1862.
After the Civil war was over he returned
to his home, gathered together
his broken fortune and went to work
for a livelihood. v
In 1875 he was employed in Shield's
machine shops, Columbia. Not satisfied
at this business, he dealt in beef
and fresh meats the next year at Columbis.
This same year, 1876, his life
was grief stricken by the death of his
devoted wife. He married a second
time a Miss Quick. Since 1876 Mr.
Williams devoted his time to his profession?painting.
Mr. Williams was a friend to^everybody,
and in his death Chapin, the
community and the State has lost a
good citizen. His remains were laid
to rest at Mt. Horeb cemetery, Chapin,
today at 2 o'clock.

On Thursday Judge Shipp, Hon. W.
H. Sharpe, Col. G. T. Graham and
Deputy Sheriff Miller went on a foxhunt
in the sand hills, Judge Shipp
having accompanied Mr. Sharpe to
his home at Edmunds, on Wednesday
afternoon. A fine chase was enjoyed
and the party succeeded in capturing
a large grey, which was brought to
Lexington, and on Saturday morning
another chase was enjoyed. The entire
hunting party were the guests of
Mr. Sharpe at a sumptuons Thanksgiving
dinner on Thursday, and in
the afternoon the Judge joined a
party of bird hunters.
Judge Shipp made many friends
during his stay here and many will
look forward to his return with genuine
pleasure. ^'
