Our Christmas Dinner. | , It was our good fortune to enjoy I Christmas dinner with Mr. and Mrs. I J. Tally Harth at their handsome j home on Taylor street, in Columbia. We can't recall ever having spent a ^ a more pleasant day, nor do we re^ member partaking of a more bountiful dinner on any occasion. Their j kindness is greatly appreciated and I Will long be remembered by the ed- j itor. i |-t ?? :.. j? I Ad&y-G-ayden. j The home of Mr. and Mrs. "Walter j Addy, on State street, New Brook- I land, was the scene of a beautiful j wedding on last Wednesday evening, when their daughter, Miss Beaulah, became the bride of Mr. Julian A. Gayden. A large gathering witnessed the event, which was solemnized at 7:30 o'clock, the Rev. E. L. Lybrand efficiating. A brilliant reception followed the marriage. " ' J Tne presents were mauy auu uaimsome, which attested the high esteem in which the young people are held. Mrs. Gayden is a most beautiful young woman and is endowed with many lovable traits. Mr. Gayden holds the position of overseer in the Columbia duck mill and is mayor of the town. Sir. Soof Esmenbsred by Sis Employees. As an evidence of the high esteem in which they hold their employer, the immediate employees of Mr. W. P. Roof, the popular merchant, banker and cotton mill president, presented him with a handsome tufted leather chair as a Christmas present. In acknowledgement of their appreciation, Mr. and Mrs. Roof entertained in their usual charming manner the ' i i * employees ana a nmitea numoer 01 other "friends at an oyster supper on Friday evening. All during the evening a delightful musical programme was rendered by the Lexington string band, which added greatly to this more than delightful occasion. There is no man that is held in higher esteem by his employees than is Mr. Roof, Christmas Exercises. The Christmas exercises held in St. Stephen's Lutheran church on Sunday evening, was witnessed by a very large and appreciative audience. The church had been beautifully and appropriately decorated for the occasion and the entire buildin&r presented a scene of beauty. The children performed their part9 well, and much credit is due Mrs. W. P. Roof and Miss Lucille Efird for the very excellent manner in which the program was carried out. The address by Congressman Lever was full of truth and furnished much food for thought. He held the attention of the children throughout, and was heartily commended by all who heard him. i At the conclusion of the exercise, the children were presented with presents, which filled their hearts with joy and gladness. Death of Mrs. Zleekley. One of the saddest deaths that ha9 ever occurred in this section was that of Mrs. John H. Kleckly, who died suddenly at her home in the Pilgrim section on Monday morning about 10 o'clock. Mr9. Kleckley had not been married quite a year, and her husband is heartbroken with grief. She was a daughter of the late Thomas Gable and was about 35 years of age. Her remains were laid to rest in the family burying ground, near the residence of Mr. H. W. Kleckley, yesterday morning at 10 o'clock. The bereaved one9 have our deepest sympathy. Capt. John G-. Able. Capt. John G. Able, from near Leesyille, was in town Monday on busi ness. Capt. Able is now 89 years old and is holding his own remarkably well. Mr. Able has been a subscriber to The Dispatch since its establishment nearly forty years ago, and has not missed a single issue. There is no more hightoned Christian gentleman in the land than Capt. Able and it is always a pleasure to meet him. For Eczema, Tetter and Salt Eheum.
