Mr.'Jas. E. Rawl has set a good example
and one-that we hope will be
followed by every resident in Lexington.
He has worked the sidewalk in
front of his house and as far as the
length of his lot. The weeds and grass
have been cleared off and it makes a
neat appearance. Let others keep up
| the good work.

DeatJx of E. M. GilsTjs.
Mr. R. M. Gibbs, weave 'room boss j
of the Lexington Manufacturing Co.,
and one of the best known and most
highly esteemed men of this town,
died in Knowlton's hospital, Columbia,
on Monday night, following an operation
for a serious bladder trouble. Mr.
Gibbs had been a great sufferer for
several weeks and, as a last resort,
wa9 carried to the hospital on Thursday
for surgical treatment. The operaton
wa9 performed on Monday, and
while the operation itself was en tirely
suce8sful, he never rallied from the
effects of the anaesthetic.
His remains were brought to Lexington
yesterday morning and carried
to hi9 late home, where the funeral
services were conducted last night by
his pastor, the Rev. N. N. Burton, in
the presence of an immense crowd.
His body was carried to Graniteville,
his old home, thi9 morning for interment,
accompanied by a large number
of sorrowing friends and relatives.
Mr. Gibbs was 53 years of age, and
is survived by his wife and two chilJ
! i
dren, one son and one daughter, Mr.
W. E. Gibbs and Miss Lessie Gibbs.
The deceased was a prominent Odd <
Fellow, being a member of Pellican
Lodge. He wa3 also a devoted member
of the Baptist church, and will be
sorely missed.
To his grief stricken family3The i
Dispatch extends its deepest sympathy.

A Good Woman Gone. A
St. Matthew's, October 11.?Miss L
Lavinia Geiger, of Sandy Run, this fj
count}*, was buried in the old Lutheran V
Cemetery of that place yesterday |>j
afternoon. She was in her 90th year )<
and lived every day of that time with- h
in a mile of her grave. It can truth- <1
fully be said that no nobler, purer, r
Christian life was ever spent in that
community of orthodox Christians. ^
The Lutheran Church, which she |
loved and for which she unceasingly |
toiled, will be the loser by her death.
Her ancestral strain goes back in a ?
straight- line to Emily Geiger, of pure p
v.'i t?U* !.- > f ) i n o i?; /'\f Iiif?or W
lived stock. Her mother died at the I j3
age of S3. Her aunt, Mrs. Harriett B. J
Pan, at 91. Pier sister, Mrs. Dr. m
Gerhard Muller, died o'id, us did her 9
brother, Jacob Cleiger, notwithstand- q
ing the latter died as an old reserve in m
the civil war.
Injunction Continued. |
Hon. 0. M. Efird returned from j |j
Edgefield last night where he argued 9
for a continuance of the injunction in 9
he Brookland school muddle. The 8
Jontenuar.ee was granted by Judge |
Wilson and the case will now be heard j I
