LETTER FROM CHESTER.
Chester, S. C., July 15, 1879.
At present everything is exceedingly dull '
about town, and the weather is very hot, with *
no rain to coo1 their air for many weeks. 1
It is the thought of all to find some cool I
- spot, and already some of our people have left !
for the springs and mountains, northward. 1
Mr. J. II. Smith and wife left last week for (
the mountains of North Carolina. Messrs,
George Gage and A. G. Brice, two of our '
young lawyers, took the Chester and Lenoir
Railroad for Gastonia, and from there will
maKe el LOUI",Ul ntrsLCiu ^ U1 ui vniuima un
foot. I regret to learn that the infant of Mr.
J, II. Smith died at Flat Rock, N. C., yesterday.
Last Wednesday, the Lee Light Infantry,
commanded by Capt. J. K. Marshall, marched
a mile and' a half east of Chester, and had
their annual target practice. The day was
excessively hot, but the boys stood the march
finely, with the exception of Lieut. Miles II.
Hunter, who was compelled to take to bed 011
Ins return. The distance fired was 150 yards
with the Springfield rifie. Maj. T. S. Mills,
Maj. II. M. Ross and Dr. W. S. Gregg acted
as judges. Twenty-five men were enrolled for
the contest, and three shots each made for
the medal, to be worn for one year. This was
won by Sergt. X. 11. Alexander, who made a
score of 25, in a i?ossible 50.
The next prize was a silver goblet, given byMr.
E. C. Stahn, for the best single .shot.
This was taken by Private Geo. T. Schorb.
Score 10?, in a possible 12.
The cup was afterwards kindly engraved in
^ handsome style by Mr. R. Brandt.
John Dunnovant got the tin cup, at the
target shooting.
The presentation of prizes was made very
gracefully, by Mr. John A. Bradley, Jr.
Postmaster T. M. Graham and wife celebrated
the 33rd anniversary of their wedding,
on the 9th instant. They have 12 children
N living and one dead. Three are married, and
there are six grand-children. This couple are
quite youny and lively, and the old gentleman
can "cut the pigeon wing" equal to a boy of 20.
The iron work of the bridge across Fishing
creek, at Cedar Shoals, on the Clieraw and
Chester Railroad, is now being placed in position,
and they are receiving iron sufficient to
lay the track to Catawba river. Bennett &
Moffat have already lumber for building four
additional box cays for this road.
Yfr T k f'olvin is tnnkinor ji nlftjisnre tour ill
Northern cities and Canada. He is very much
missed about here.
Mr. Nathan B. Simpson who returned home
? last week, from Hot Springs, Ark., died 011
Sunday, and was buried yesterday.
Dr. G. B. White returned from Augusta
last week, and si>eaks in glowing terms of the
meeting of the National Dental Association.
He also brought a dental chair which is ahead
of anything we ever saw. A subject can be !
placed in any position, and raised cr lowered j
by air brakes.
Rain is all the cry now. Mr. II. M. Banks i
states that there has been none at Blackstocks
in eight weeks, and crops are suffering greatly. !
The only thing sold 011 last sales-day was the j
choses in action belonging to the estate of Biggers
Mobley, deceased.
. "Mr. W. N. Caldwell, of this county, made I
735 bushels of oats from 13 acres of land.
Some of our ladies are getting up 'Tinafore,"
to be given to a Chester audience ut an !
early day.
Mr. Thomas Graham, who has been one of
the penitentiary guard, for some months, was
home, 011 furlough, last week.
Mr. S. C. Walker left, Thursday night, for
Columbia, to accept a position as a penitentiary
guard. t
In a recent trip on the Chester and Lenoir
Railroad, I noticed that it was in fine condition.
Supervisor R. E. Waddill is having the
track put in fine order?filling up the trestles,
and making them quite secure. They make
fast time on the road, nearly equal to the
broad gauge.
The Survivors' Association of the Sixth
Regiment S. C. V. will meet here on the 26th
instant to make arrangements for attending
the meeting at Winnsboro, on the 7th of
August. Capt. McAliley, President of the
Association, extends through this correspondence
a cordial invitation to Gen. A. Coward
to be present at the meeting here and also at
the meeting to be held in Winnsboro. Capt.
McAliley also desires, members of the "old
Sixth" in York county, to attend at both
places.
A colored man, named Abe Woodward,
while out hunting, near Cornwell Turnout,
accidentally shot himself fatally.
Mrs. John Cornwell, of Baton Rouge, died
yesterday.

Mr. J. N. Grant, of this county, aged 40
years, never chewed tobacco in his life. He
joined the Sons of Temperance at the age of
16, and is a member in good standing now.
Pleasant Grove Praying Circle has appointed
Daniel Dunlap, AV. Banks Robinson and
Rufus Brown as delegates to attend the Bethel
Praying Circle Association to meet at Bethel
Church in York county.
Sunday morning, between 12 o'clock and
daylight, some one entered the dwelling of W.
II. Hardin, PresMent of the Cherqw and Chester
Railroad, carried off his pants, robbed
them of $G0 or $75, and his gold watch, leaving
the pants on the front fence, where they were
found by a colored man in the employ of Mr.
Hardin. It being so warm on Saturday night,
that Mr. II. retired, leaving the windows of
his house open, so the thief easily got in and
carried off the pants. A negro suspected of
the theft is now in jail, Chester.

RE-UNION OF THE 17th REGIMENT.
To the Survivors of the 17th Regiment,
S. C. V.? Comrades: Fourteen years
have passed since the remnant of our regiment
surrendered at Appomatox.
Many officers apd privates have expressed
a desire to have a re union of survivors this
summer at Chester, which is a central point
for eight companies, and accessible by rail in
six hours to our two Barnwell companies.
You are therefore earnestly invited to assemble
at Chester on Wednesday, the "13th of
August next, for the purpose of forming a
survivors' association, of mingling a few
hours in social intercourse, and collecting interesting
incidents in the history of the regiment.
?
A banquet will be served for the survivors,
and appropriate addresses be made.
All persons who at any time were members,
from its mustering into Confederate service
under the lamented Governor Means, in
November, 1861, to the surrender, are cordially
invited to participate.
Proper committees of arrangements will be
made in time, and the railroads, with their
usual courtesy, will grant tickets at half fare.
