Resignation ci Air. Keys.
Mr. Robert L. Keys has tendered his
resignation as agent of the .Southern
ExprcHH Company in this city, to take
effect on April lat. Mr. Key? lins been
the representative of the Kxpress Com
pany in thia city ever since tho railroad
agent at the depot was relieved of the
work and tho ellice moved uptown
about twenty-one years ago-and we
venture tho assertion that the Com
pany has never had in its service a
more efficient, zealous or accommodat
ing agent. During his long term of
service he was absent from his oftice
only ono day on account of sickness,
and only took two short trips away
from home. Mr. Keys is a most de
voted confederate veteran, and has a
wide circle of friends throughout this
section who will join us in wishing
him much succesB in whatever busi
ness be may engage in the future.

i. Dr. Joseph Pickens Harrie
born in Anderson County. H. C.,
F?b. 26. 1841. and died at 0:30 p. m.
Dec. 1905, at the age of Ol years and 10
months. He was the third son of Jos.
1\ and Ann T. Harris and a great
grandson of Gen. Audrew Pickens and
Robert Anderson of Revolutionary
fame.
Dr. Joseph P. Harris enlisted in the
Confederate Army, Orr's Reg., Co. D,
at tho age of SO and fought through
the war till tho Southern cause went
down in defeat at Appomattox C. H.
April ??, 1805. He was a gallant sol
dier and was severely wounded in a
charge at Frederick rt burg. He wan as
true to tho principles of tho South as
the needle to the pole.
Un May 7, 1878, he was united in
marriage to Miss Mary Story Reese.
Eleven children-six girls and live
boys-came to bless their union. Two
of tho children have preceded their
f it her to glory.
Dr. Harris resided near Townville,

fathers till 1894 when he removed to
Texas, and hus been a citizen of this
State ever since that time.
Io October, 1891, he united with the
M. E. Church South and has lived a
consistent Christian life ever since.
He was a true gentleman and was gen

ever turned away from his door; he
was quick to answer the call of dis

leaves a devoted wifo and nine lovinir
children-live daughters and four sons,
three sisters, many relatives and a host
of friendB to mourn with the bereaved
firmly. Ho fell asleep in Jesus as
peacefully as a child in a mother's
arms. "Blessed are the dead which

Biography of John Eskew-Read Before
v Concord School.
The Concord school3is in a very
flourishing condition, und?r ?he man
agement of Prof. Joe. C. Stribling,
w ho is an experienced a-jd a success
ful teacher.
Each Friday afternoon during the
month the exercises are varied' by
vocal music, letter wilting, essays and
speech making.
Below is uninteresting sketch of the
life of Mr. John Eskew by his grand
daughter Mies Ethel Vandiver, who
is a pnp:'l ol the Concord Behool:
John Eskew was born on April 9th,
1841, at the Eskew old homestead,
about Ave miles west of Anderson,
near New Prospect Church, where his
brother William now lives. ?-'
Hm father, who waa named Elliott
Eskew, was born near Centerville mill,
t?io eua?-y, cn the 20th of October,
1811. Hii* mother, Catherine Burris?,
waa b iro auont three miles southv?eat
ot Anderson, near the old Mt. Tabor
cemetery, March, the 80th, 1811. She
waa more familiarly known aa Aunt
Katie. They were one of the moat
honored and worthy connies of Ander
son County. They, lived to the ripe
agea of 84 years each, having been
married 68 years.. and raised eleven
childi on, John being their fifth child.
In early childhood he lived on the
farm, helping his father and brothers
with the work of the farm, and attend
lng acbool at Hollywood Springs. He
waa always foll of fun, and mandara
Ci<e scrapes he. uss gutten ?oto at horns
and Behool, for hie mischievousness.
Ho stayed on the farm until the open*
lng of the Civil war. He then enlist
ed in Company D. Orr1? Rifles, in 1861.
The company camped ? at*. Sandy*
Springe, this county, about n month
and went from there to Summerville'
and ktayed two weeks, and from there
to Sal li van's Island, Charleston, and
stayed seven months. 'While at Char
leeton he had the measles and that,
with the sea water; made hiurvery
eiok. They weat from there., to Rich
mond, Va., where they engaged in-the
il g h t of Gaines' mill and a seven a ay e
tight followed, in aad around Rich
mond, s' ... . j? ' . ..
The worst fight ho waa engaged Jo
waa at Horseshoe Bend, where both
the Confederates aad ;y?nkeesi?^?*tt
ated on account of theodor Of th; place
after the battle. ,
Although undergoing many hard
ships he was ai way 8 jolly and joking
with his corara di s. He w ns noted in
hie camp, and many others also, for
hia love of music. At night, after i hey
had gone in to camp, he and ode of his
friends. Bub Murphys^ wepld^iiw^u|
into the field and sing the "Bumble
bee," and before they couldvhjaW
finished both Yankees and Confed
erate* would gather around to listen
and laugh. . ' *r .!
After the war he returned home to
his friends and loved one? and etayed

If Tho Eye Says Ono Thing and thel
Tongue Says Another, Yon Wil
Believe the Former. Spoken of in
the Bible Five Hundred and Thir
ty-Four Times.
Of nil the endowments of our Creator
tho Eye 1M tbe mont valuable, without it
vm are deprived of all thal makes Ule de
ni ra bli>. Ic respectu neither age nor ran lr,
poverty nor non or?, learnlrg nor power.
It apeaka all language*, convereing as
much aa the tonguu, with the advantago
that it needs no dictionary. If the eye
aays one thing and the teague another,
you will believe tte former. There are
asking eyea, asserting eyes, prowling
eyes and eyea full of fate, some good and
some of sinister omen. They are a posi
tion index of character, disposition and
feeling. Have you not soon them flash
with indignation, brighten with enthu
siasm, start wita fright, leer with vil
lainy, droop with sadness, fire with re
venge, twinkle with merriment or beam
with lovb? None but he who has loar it
can appreciate ita vaiae. . Sampson with
bia eyes put out was weaker than the
dwarf. Go to any asylum for the blind
and ask victims of Ophthalmia the value
of aa eye,, thou see if you will go on
stumbling and blundering in regard to
its preservation, trusting vendors, ped
dlers and fakirs for ita treatment and
protection. All the tissues ">f the body
are represented in the oj e. It is so close
ly and intimately connected with not
only the brain but the entire nervous
system that its maltreatment or impair
ment frequently causes the loss of sight
or leads to serious nervous complica
tions and affections. To give a full da
ecription of the'functions and cefeots of I
the eye would take up many pp gos, what !
we wish to speak of hero ?a lue troubles,
causes and cures of most frequent oocur
ences and when other teat ino ut is unnec
essary glasses can be made to prodnce
the desired relief, but must be ground by
the eye specialists prescription. Law
yer?, physicians, merchants and me
dowies who are successful in their voca
tions divide their labore into specialties.
You may ask any phyaloian in what
caaea he ia most suooessfu), * he would
probably say fevers, pneumonia or pleu
risy, while others would excel In skin
dit eases. Why are they mure saccessful
in some diseases than otberb? Because
they have given the most of their study
and practice to these special diseases,
hence they acquire greater Bklll in the
one specialty. An eye specialist who de
votes bis entire time and Study to tho
eye and ita requirements ie not hacapor
ed tn his specialty by any other busi
ness, therefore he becomes master of his
profession.
Should any of our readers feel tho
need of glasses, or wish to have their
eyes looked after in any way, we would
advise them to consult Dr. McCreary
Olymph, now with Dr. A. O. Strickland,
"uri out tho advice of* one who for Ofseen.
yea? has made a specialty of thia deli
cate organ and cured hundreds and hun
dreds of the afflicted, including every de
fect to which tiie eye is subject.
