The Anderson intelligencer. (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, September 21, 1876, Image 4
His ?amo was John Holt ; and, more
over, ho looked like his paine, or likathe
Ur ige which the sound of his name, a.\ a
musical oar, would cali up in the mind.
For John shook! be strong, and quint,'
and true, and grave, sad John Holt was
?U of t'dcfie., j&a,?kUi> was /skApd bis
eyes blu--?, nut tho hr.ir, which h-io been
tow cplored jh his childhood, Jmd dopp
en'.-d to brown. Ordinary penioiw would
call bim trnnd looViuf', r*t)mr than band'
some, but a dewe observer would pro*
nomico his profile perfect, and his mouth
and chin models of finn end symmetrical
chiseling. The brows were straight and
strong, though smooth, and his not very
high forehead was broad and oper..
John 'Holt's' chantcWristlcs were a
womanish gentleness, a moat marvelous
and absurd honesty, and a patience
which, to them, looked only too much
like cowardice. In his.family John was
called a ?rent fooh
John's father had died when the lad
was but ten years oid, a?d le.1 his wifo to
bring up hor family of five children und
manage tho- fenn. She was perfectly
capable of doing it, and even wary bust
ness men worroo,thejr.gt^tfd when mak
ing a bargain with the sharp Yankee
matron. Pour of her children followed
in her footsteps, and knew perfectly well
which was tho best cud of thc bargain ;
hut John-well, if be was a fool it was
not because abc lind not Warned ami
talked to him.
John did not grow1 :wiser as he grew
older, and took upon himself the cares of
lite. mhiiT, Holt bad ? larne and valuable
farm'just ott the borders'bf the towni
Streets had crept gradually about Uer
heidi, and snrroundcii them on three
sal?* ; W'ftorHb?rth^woodl?iid? stfeeeried
back toward thc east. Why she should
give tho control of this placo to John, in
stead of one of his sharper brothers, was
a puzzlo eve'i to her own mind. Thc
only reason she could give was that John
was steady and quiet, and more likely to
remain home than the othorj were. Dut
she confessed to herself tobo in con ti (tupi
tribulation with him.
"My dear," she said, to a crony, "you
knew that fifty cords of wood wc had,
good beech, birch and maple, with not
more than twenty sticks of spruce
through the whole/ Well, John must
mention that stoveful of spruce, and so
lose five dollnrs on the bargain. I never
did sec such a fool, Then he wanted to
hurry off our potatoes last fall for icar of
rot. I told John particularly not to own
to a speck ; but, if you will b?liers it.
..ben Thurlow came to buy them, ana
asked if we "had seen any signs of rot,
that ninny said : 'Yes, a little,' though I
vow I don't believe ibero were six ??pots
larger than the bead of n pin in the
whole lot. I don't know where tba fel
low got his shiftlessness. I'm sure I
could always make a bargain,"
John took all this very quietly, as wc
haye- said. He knew that though his
motlier yqufyl say mucp thiugs'to'1 others,
sho would by no means have allowed any
ono to pay them to ber. Hut one thing
he could not bear was that Nellie Cramer
should talk in tho sante way. Nollie
seemed to delight in tormenting him.
Sho would follow him into the gardens
and fields',' hang on hts arm with her
curls blowing ?tero?? hin breast, looking
up smiling nnd chatting iuto bia face, so
soft and sweet as a kitten ; then sudden
ly, if ho chanced to press those wander
ing curls against hts breast, or to bend
too near her lovely upturned face, or to
breathe ^ -^rqrd^f tendantes^she
went with a toss of thc head und a curl
of the lip, and SB likely aa not, some such
spocch as : "I do wish you wonld ttot bo
so foolish, John Holt!"
He never got angrv with'tieri How
could bc? i But sometime.) a shadow
would drop over his taco, and he wouldn't
have much to say to ber for a time.
Then, ,when .she, went to. him .with her
coaxing ways, and laid her little-hand on
hie arm, whispering :
"Now, don't be vexed, John ; I like
you so much, but I don't wu nt you to
talk nonsense." ho would look down and
smile, though not very brightly, and
fuomtBe to try to avoid nonsense Cor the
uture, ending his premiso with a t'igh.
"Dear mo 1 I wish you wouldn't sigh
so, John I" the girl would say pettishly.
"lt makes trio J feel melancholy to bear
you. One would think I b*d dono some
thing dreadful to you,"
Then John Holt would (milo agrio,
still less brightly, and protcise to try not
to sigh any more.
Buch little'scones as this wore more
asides, however.,,-r Nollie usually paid
but little attention to John, being chiefly
occupied in dancing, flirting, and quar
reling with bia more showy brother
Frank, Or with any other gay fellow who
was so unfortunate as tb be taken, r. ith
her pretty face. For Nellie ..w^a au in
corrigible flirts C It was only ! v<oen she
had no ono elso tu talk to, or wanted to
piquo some other lover, or when ?ne
wanted some real service, that sho wont
to John, who waa sometimes pleased aud
sometimes hu? that she came to him
only when she wanted help or advice.
''You aro a sort of grandfather, you
know," she said ono day; giving his arm
a tq?| exe," VI. K?ve an idea that you ire
about seventy-five years old. How old
aro you, Johnt"
"I nm jpst one-third of that," ho said,
smiling. "I am only a month past
twenty-five."
"Possible t Weil, you moot have been
very old when yon were born. Besides,
twenty-five, is old to mo. I am only nine
teen. Now, you come and hear my story
and tell me what .to do. 11 carno over
here on pnrpoao to seo you." ^ f *. rjv . 3
John followed ber obediently through
tho garden, sad. dowtr to a bench under
tho shadow of the beech grove on ibo
lawn ; and when she tock her seat 'ibero
ho leaned, against tho trunk of a treo and
waited, tocking down on her.
"You see, John." she begun, "I've had
an offer."
John Holt was tanned that summer,
but through tho brownness ono might
down' bod rolling her apron tassels, ft

There was a moment's s-.Jer.eo after;
this announceuftent, and. sceh'ic that bb

N elita gave her shoulders an impatiens

Soma impulse to r.pcak itemed to como
upon him. Glancing up for his answer,
Nellie saw the change, and tdded s
word :
"Yea ace, John, I Uko Albert Leighton
better than I do James."
The color and light diobpW'outf 'of
Ilia face again, and a rim cf even white
teeth pressed for au instant bia uudcr
reaehitig to break a slender twig.
'He never asked me to," abe answered,
demurely.
"I suppose ho means tr?, doesn't lief"
asked John, looking at her with a ghuico
that might bc called almost haughty.
"JJovf yan I tell ?" Nellie ponied.
" W-ilW ?9 mnlrn RVesmoafJciE (lie ia.
arlffhj rlbat waff to bo asked, I think."
"If you wmit my advice, I will give it,"
John said, twisting and flinging away
tho little twig in his hand. "If you like
Albert, don't keep James in suspense.
You have no right to do it. You can't
seriously think of marrying one man
when you prefer another, li Albert
like? you, as I believe bo dot??, take him.
He's a good fellow."
"You think an?" th? girl *v)'uJ, looking
up suddenly.
"I think *o," he repeated, turning
away. "Now let'* go un to the house.
She row and walked 'juicily by his
side, her fair, girlish fact1 it littlo fVnle,
hor eyes downcast. At the gate MIIC
stopped.
"I will not go in now," ?ho H?id, in a
low tone. "I will co home."
He merely bowed, and looking back
after a few ?tcp;, ?ho ?tnw that he brui ixu
entered the house, but waa stealing otT
toward tito.barn.
Thc next week James Lee commenced
a violet.t flirtation with IICHMC Holt,
^Stalin's K?ster,~and In a nlont?rt?i? two
were engaged. Nellie laughed, :and
tu rh- I tho li^lit Of her tm i fe? upon Al
bert Leighton, a handsome, danby fellow,
who had been cruz,/ about Lee for the
last six months. John Holt (?aid noth
ing but was rather tjoV^bout h?B eiatera
engagement. ' j?tV"
"You see, suspense would, nave ' ktifed
him." Nellie w?i??*t?? ??S????&f??
"I hope he NPQbrryii

coldly. "If t drdrW think", B?salo loved
him Um well to ;iv} him up, ? would tell
her."
"And botray my confidence, John
Holt," Nellie exclaimed. "I tell you, ho
is like mo?t of you men-purely solfisb.
He didn't cajro &. fig about hie. I think
ho neem* to Uko Bessie."
"When aire yon going lo be married V
ho naked, abruptly.
The quotion came sosuddenly tbat for
onco tho girl lost her composure. A
crimson bluidi swept over her face, nud
?ho dropped her eyes without being ablo
tc ?peak a word.
^ho recovered tirM?lf Jw a minuto, and
pi'.'estai Unit ?lio had no thought of
nYacryinir Hilt the blush had convicted
her In John Holt's eyes, and he scarcely
heard a word that abe said.
It'-as winter, and wbiio they talked
tliey ere waiting, with half- a dozen
others, for a large sleigh that was coming
to take them out to a party givcu by
a frieud neveu or eight miles otT ?ii the
country. Even before Nellie's blush had
faded, tho trampling and jingling nt the
Sato attracted their attention, and Albert
jeightou pul his head in at the door to
calMh^uB^ lo\rer
nndWWWrWf^ririierfui and kind* td
everybody. Ho was fully na quiet as*
usual, to hu sure, and rathe avoided
Neilin framer, but it is doubtful ie any
cm'?'but herself noticed that.
It was twelve o'clock when they started
to go home,und.tho moon bod set. At
flmt their gayety held out, but after a
mile or so fatigue and want of sleep be
S;un tftfoll on them, and ono by one they
ol) into silence.
"John," Nollie ?aid, "there is just room
for ran on the ecat with you. May I
I como there ? It ia so cold here."
Ho made room for her in ailenco, and
abe left her discomfited "acort and took
her place next that strong shoulder.
Then ailenco fell again; but after a
while in the dru!:ne?* Join. Holt waa
aware Ola light prc?"en^-.iust his arm,
then a aoft, plaintive whisper stole into
hld ear..
"I am BO sleepy, John 1"
He turned a littlo-why not ? They
??rc old friends-and lifted bis Ar?i to
tho bqt,likoftne seat, took the bead softly
and tcnQorly to bis bosom. And so ??he
lay in that faithful and tender clasp till
they drew near home ; then, with one
whispered word of loving gratitude;
"Nobody ia so good aa you 1" abo drew
away, and took Albert Lnighton'* h^nd
to step out at her own door.**
After a stir in hla own mind, John
Holt concluded that Nollio and Albert
timi quarreled. , He nighed, ?ince, ?ho
DOuld not near, and BO be annoyed, pitied
the girl, and then went steadily about
hi? ? irk. Tbe waters of bia aoul wera
ti 'jeep for babbling.
When sating cane fer the first time io
hip life John electrified bis friend?. H?
wra going to California. The announce
rm Ot MOS made quietly but Bficiy, and
ho-stood like a rock against which os
ftSt?tlaliOu beat itself, to? ?pray. He gavo
rood reasons, and resolutely maintained
his right to choose for himself.
"You have alwaya aald, mother, that
roRAwished I - were mora ^nturdtttaffe"
-am going' to please you,
now." m,
"But bow ls the farm to get along
without you T" ahe objected.
'-Frank understands everything, and
yin manage.'? ;
Mrs. Holt took courage, and, break
ing over some little awe which fit spite
nf her talk, she felt for her son, spoke
jut :
"John, bm that Nell Cramer Jilted

not choose to give .up, now that the ice

six weeks. Let me see; this is tho mid?

thc first of June, al farthest."
those sliArp eyes; anoHtww'rTO thoftght
flashed into her mind that John's moth*
er was trying to expose and mortify her.
A woman's pride will do a good deal for
her, even when her heart is breaking.
It brought tbe color to her feco agni?,
and strciiRthei.'.d her trembling limbs.
It steadied her vfljce.and hcrcyca^ .Mrs;
"l am so sorry ?" Nellie said, in a tone
of fearless regret. "We can scarcely get
along without John. He seems such a
stanuoy. Hut men ought not to bo tied
at home, I think. If they choose to go,
they should be allowed their own way.
There he is now in the garden I um
going out to speak, tb him of it. '
"Try to coax him to stay, Nellie,"
said the mother,- In a tono of iv>re en
treaty than, perhaps, sho lind ever used
in her life before. "He is a good son,
and I can't gel along witho it him. I
think you can keep him.if yoi. *v??'.."
This* prayer would have beer effectual,
but for thc memory of that smile which
rankled in thc girl's heart. Had she not
giren John Holt every encouragement,
if he had cared about her? Had she not
said and done things HO riTectiouaf to*
ward him that sbej had blushed *vith
shame thinking 'of them afterward?
John was no fool, and if he hr J cared
for ber, he might have understood.
He had p ??bably been trying to put her
back.
With theso .thoughts, buruii'g .in,her
heart, Nellie Cramer! s/cnt i i roc tty to
John Holt as ho walked up and down
the garden. Ho ?topped, teeing her, and
looked wistfully into her face. Though

Of course, you know 1>??t what is' good
for you, lind I have been telling lier to

shall all bo sorry to i >hn." >
That was all. Ko gavo ?? last graspVat
his self-command., and held it. There
was n short, formaVconversation, both so
engaged Tn mn'ting a pretense of being
kind and friendly, and just aa usual,
that each could not perceive that the

Borne''way: she'hadn't'seemed to caro
mucti about flirting for several years.
Her father and motlier, were dead, aga
she was keeping house for an unmarried
brother. There were hints that the new
minister went to see her very often, but
Mm. Holt didn't believe that Nellie would

ATTENTION
BOTTOM PLATERS !
Ii DESIRE tu call your attention to thc'
new and wonderful improvement in
Cotton Gins, which consists in Revolving
Heads in the ends of the cotton-box, where
by tho friction of the cotton running
against the ends of thc cotton-box is de
stroyed. This txttphtasiteft't pre-cut.-, tins'
choking of the Gin or breaking the roll,and
any common plantation hana can feed it.
It docs not injure the staple, and gins thc
I aced much cleaner than thc ordinary gins,
thereby saving th* planter all Of his lint
cotton. For speed in ginning. I do not be
lieve it can bo oxcelled. As to sample, it
will cornj^f? favorably with ?uy other. Thia
j is the -lotti year of the Daniel Pratt Gin Bn.s
! incas, and during that time have mode over
20,000 gins. In Alabama, Mississippi, Ar
kansas, Louisiana and Texas they are al
most universally used by the planters, to
their entire sntisfactior, and thc same tri
umph is predicted for this State. Call?n
me and see this Gin before buying elsewhere,
and I am satisfied that when you see it you
will bc convinced that the Pratt Gin will do
I you good.

Agent for Anderson County.
TESTIMONIAL.
ANDERSON COCI?TY, Aug. 0, 1876.
P. K. MCCUM.Y-Dear Sir : Wc purchased
a GO-Saw Revolving Head Giu of the Daniel
Pratt make lost year. We find it to be one
of the best Cotton Gins wo have ever used.
It ts impossible to break the roll of this Gin.
It takes all tho lint from the seed, makes a
epic,-'.id sample, end the speed of this Gin
is as good as any farmer or public ginner
need want. We can gui a bale of cotton in
cixty minutes. Wp, cheerfully recommend
this Gin to all persons. using Cottons Gins.
Respectfully,
