Nkw Lkasi; o;j Lire.?Consumption is
hereditary in my family; my father died of
it. From early cliilliool 1 had symptoms of
mug uisense; nuu nsirima mm: 1 was twelve
years old, constantly, and when 1 was
25 years old began to have a hurling in my
breast, and fre<|Uout pains in my shoulders
and sharp cutting pains when 1 coughedAlter
going through the usual course of
medicine to no purpose, in 1885 1 commenced
taking {Swift's Speoitio. After using a
hall dozen bottles it g ive me relief. 1 improved
in llesh and strength, and felt better
nil over-. The Speeitic stopped my consumption
bef.ro it was developed, and saved
my life. I know my lungs were diseased
from childhood, an 1 1 know 8. 8. 8. has
given me a now lease on life. 1 cannot say
too much in favor of thut medicine, for in
addition to saving my life it was the only
medicine that gave health to tny littlo hoy,
who from tho second to his seventh year
was u pale, sickly jhild, suffering constantly
with his head and stomach, lie is now
well, f it, and growing right along, all from
taking S. 8. 8.

A Fi.oon at Foiit Worth.?Fort Worth,
Texas, July 1.?Several inches of rain fell
in this pari of I ho Stale yesterday and
great damage has resulted, Deports from
tho West show heavy rains for 200 miles.
Urazos and Trinity rivers arc booming. At
Deudbrooka, twelvo miles West, the bridge
of the Texas & Pacific and one hundred feet
and Fort Worth k Denver have abandoned
(heir tracks North. '1 ho Texas & Pacific
lias abandoned trains holli East and Went.
At Forth Worth the bottom lands to the
North two miles and to the East a mile and
a half arc submerged and the truck farms
arc gone. Trinity rose four feet and a
half in half an hour and dwellings on the
low lands barely escaped. Whcit, oats,
fruit and cotton nrc bally damaged. The
loss can hardly bo estimated, but conservative
estimates place it as high as two
millions. J

During the morning sossiou of tho Court
last Wednesday, Col. McKisslck presented "
the following tosolutions, accompanied by jy
some very feeling remarks, aud asked that
they bo spread upou the Minnies of the
't^ourt.
Col. D. It. Duncan. C. C. Culp and J. C. '
Wallace, Esq's., responded to tho resolulions
in very ni propriatc and clotpiout remarks.
Judge l'i.i-er also paid a heartt'ul
tubute to the illustrious dead, and ordered
tho preamble and resolutions to be spread j
upon tbo uiinuus aad that the court stand
adjourned in report for the lamented Judge
ltobert Muuro until Friday tuoruing at 'J Cai
o'clock.
Death has again enteroJ our community
and summoned hcucc an esteemed and
honored -member.
On the Cth day of May. 188'J, at hit /'/
residence in the town of Uuion, the I!on.
ROBERT MUNltO departed this life, in tho
93d year of his age.
Judge Muuro was horu in Charleston,
S. Cm August 19th, 1790. He received his
education in Scotland, the lormer home of t'u,
his parents, lie served in tho Merchant f?r
Marine service during his youth. His ves- Pr
sel was eo near that lie heard distinctly
the battlo of Waterloo. During his said
service he visited nearly all the ports ot ?
the world. rn
lie was admitted to the liar in 1823, and -*
almost immediately acquired aud preserved
for 30 years a largo and lucrative practice.
He reptescn'ed his District in the Stnto ]
Senate for some years.
la 1853 he was elected one of tho Circuit
Judges of the State of South Carolina, \
and continued to hold that honorable posi- mi
tiou until the days of reconstruction, when W.
all the old Judges were deposed. Frotr '
that lime until his death he practiced law all
at Uuion C. II. in copartnership with his of
son, the lion. William Muuro. be
Sucb is a brief outline of the history of Pr
the deoeased. It is difficult to do full jus- Soi
ticc in a brief space to tho many noble quali- 18)
ties which adornod his character ami illus- in
tratcd his life. As a citizen he was cxetu- ha
plary, nnd as a Judgo he was upright, con- noi
ccicntious and impartial. In all tho rein- 1
lions of life he strove to do h:.s duty. FIis Ju
mind was naturally clear nnd strong, nnd
had been improved by study and cultiva
1U11. These advantages of themselves arc
sufficient to make a successful lawyer, but ju
in other respects, too, his mind was emi- ,
ncntly fitted for the profession of his choice nnd
gave him deservedly a high reputation
a'l over our State.
In ommcmorating tho virtues of our doparted
friend there is another quality
which marked bis character, and which in
its highest manifestations is ns rare as it is
uuuuiuutu , mill, IS, UI1 iiouvai imirpciiacncc
of tniiul in forming ami maintaining bis
opinious, and in expressing them on all
proper occasions. This grand principle of
liis character ?us well icstcd and exemplified
in the days of reconstruction, when lie
was deposed from the oliioo of Judge ; for
very soon afterwards having been offered
the same position by the party in power he
Churned the offerniid rejecleil the ofiice, ^
declining oven (ho appearance of affiliatiug |
with .-aid party. ftc
In paying c-nr last tribute to our departed ^
friend we may truly say that lie lived the j
lifo of a noble gentleman nud died the
do it h of an humble christian. gcJ
As a mark of our respect for the chavac- ,W(
tcr and memory of the deceased, ^
licit lietolved, 1. That iu the death of
Judge Robert Munro, our community hat jjn
sustained a loss that oaunot be filled, and j
the Rar has lost one of its most honest anl
upright members, and the State of South
Carolina one of its brightest ornaments.
2d. That we respectfully tender our sincere
condolence to the bereaved members (ji;
of his family, and.assurc them of our sytn- '
3d, That these proceedings be presented
to the presiding Judge at the next term of
the Circuit Court with the request that the
same be entered upou the Minutes of the
Court, and a blank page be insoribed to his
memory.
1th. That u copy of this preamble and
resolutions be transmitted to the family of t
the decoased.
6th. That these proceedings be published
in the Union Times.
