Sam Tom Weed, near Irmo, on Saturday night at 11 o'clock, after a four weeks' illness of typhoid fever.

Mr. and Mrs. Meetze had been ill in Columbia for a week or ten days prior to going to Irmo. Upon reaching home, Miss Shannon, a trained nurse from Columbia, was summoned, a9 was also Dr. L. B. Owens: but in spite of all that skill and careful nursing could do, the Grim Reaper had marked him as a victim, and the end came on Saturday night. YouDg Meetze had been an employe of the Fitzmaurice store, in Columbia, for seyeral months, and was held in the highest esteem by all who knew him. His remains were laid to rest at Sa lem Methodist church on Sunday afternoon at 5 o'clock, in the presence of a large congregation of sorrowing friends and relatives.
