The Williamston Nowsof last Friday gave the following notice of the death of Ma.}. George W. Anderson, which will Liing sorrow to the hearts of many of our l'endors, lor he was weit known . rough out. this sectio!i and one of An d'Tsou County's best eiti/ens: AI liait'past five o'clock Wednesday ,<o-i.i.i.r :it his home in William ston, Ma.j. Goo. W. Anderson breathed his last. At the time of his death Maj. Anderson was seventy-three years of age, being born in IS- : Though ho had been ill for ten months and his death expected a I any time, the news of Iiis demise wash shock to the community. Mnj. Anderson w:is b >ru ami raised in LaurensCounty. thisStato. He was religiously impressed while quite young and connected himself with tho AL E. Church, .South, in his boyhood days, and lived a consistent member of thai Church for over half a century, and a faithful ami devoted steward for over thirty years. lie served gallantly through tho civil war, acting u good part, of the time as courier for Gen. Bean regard. For several years he loi lowed tho mercantile business and gave his ut il ttcnt inn partly to farming, being fair ly SUCOCSU'ul ill I )i>t ll of these pursuits. amassing by his good judgment ami close application to business a sung fortune, though often meeting witli adversity ami disaster; was twice burned out. The burnings would hnv^? staggered a L. s determined man. He was of a sympathetic nature, as hundreds of poor people whom he be- j friended can testify. Ho will be sadly missed by his Church, his community, and most of all l>3r his loving family. He leaves to mourn for him seven children, all grown, anil an aged ami nfilleted wife. To these the sympathies of many friends go out. The funeral exercises took place in the Methodist Church late Thursday afternoon, conducted by the pastor, Rev. A. J. Cant hen, Jr., who came from the annual conference in Colum bia to perform the last sail riles over the remains of one who for years had been a pillar in his church and one. to whom the. pastors looked for support and counsel. A Popular and Sui:;2s.sful Agent. A recent issue of The'Prospect, pub lished in Atlanta and Richmond, con tains sketches, with their pictures, of three of the most successful Suite agents of the Mutual 'Benefit Life In surance Company. One of these agents is our genial and energetic townsman, M. M. Mattisou, of whom the editor speaks as follows: "M. M. Mattisoii, the present State agent for South Carolina, began with the company as a solicitor under St.Vu Agent .lotin C. Drewry of Raleigh, in ItSW. From the first ho developed in to a successful writer, and having such a good company behind him ho found bis position both pleasant and profit able. Upon the retirement of Mr. Drewry as State agent of South Caro lina* to* assume the Statu agency of Vir ginia. Mr. Maltis, :.'s promotion to that position was natural and proper, as his record shows him to be of all men the right man in tho right place. He has bis headquarters ar Anderson, and dur ng his term of a little more than two \ears as State agent has proven Iiis ability not only to write life insur ance, but to .show his agonis how to do it. When he began with the company in 1803 it had hi force in South Caro lina not over $400.000 of insurance. At the beginning of the present year there was $fl,719,'lSl) of insurance in force, while the new business for will raise tho grand total to over 84, 000,000. This splendid record has been made in a territory embracing not more than two-thirds of tlio State, quite a number of tho const counties being prohibited territory. Mr. Mattisoii can point with pride to a large per centage of tho leading business men of the Palmetto State who are satisfied and persistent policy-holders in his company, and no Stato agent has a brighter outlook for the future. II?. is a young mnn, as his portrait in this paper shows, and in his personal ad dress is r.ordial and democratic to a marked degree, making him popular with all who know him.
