The palmetto herald. (Port Royal, S.C.) 1864-1864, June 30, 1864, Image 3
I
Adams Express.?We have before inadvertantly
omitted to mention that Mr.
A. A- Rice, has taken charge of the
Adams Express business in this Department,
succeeding Mr. John K. Stimson,
who has gone North. Mr. Rice for a
long time was the Agent of Adams Exnfuoa
111 tho niinnrtmnnf r\f \Tr\v-fVi P?i?aV
^K/OO in iuv/ vi 11 viiu vaivi.
na. We knew him there, and can testify
to his great popularity at Newborn, as a
most efficient and accommodating officer,
who did credit to the company. He is
well adapted, by ability ana experience,
for the position he holds, in a military Department
like this.
Masonic.?The crowd of advertise.
ments to-day renders it necessary, much
to our regret, to defer our report of the
celebration of St. John's Day, at Beaufort,
last Friday, as we could not do justice
to it in the brief space afforded. We
shall give a full report next week. We
will merely say now that it was in every
way a success, and reflected much credit
on those having it in charge. The
procession was headed by a band, and
numbered nearly one hundred persons.
Thj supper at the Saxton House was
prepared in fine style; and was attended
by Gen. Saxton, Lt. Col. J. F. Hall, Capt.
W. L. M. Burger, Capt. Parker, and many
oiher distinguished Masons.
Palmktto IIskald Stoke.?Since Tue
Palmetto Herald was started the busi
ness of editing and publishing it, and superintending
the job printing office connected
with it, together with the erection
of the buildings of the establishment, have
so occupied our time that we have been
unable to attend to the finishing of that
portion of the lower story, fronting on
Merchants' Row, reserved for a stationery,
periodical and lancy goods store. Carpenters
are scarce, and such as could be
obtained have been employed on work
necessary to our newspaper department.
We are now having the store completed,
and it wilt be opened in a few weeks,
with a Iarce stock of goods, and Thk
Palmetto Herald on the counter, when
we shall no longer have to apologize to
our patrons for obliging them to find our
establishment through a back-yard. Mr.
Otis T. Simonds and Mr. Orlando Leach,
two enterprising gentlemen, with the
best business qualities, formerly of4the
Custom House, will be associated with
us in the management of the store, and
we believe our facilities for making it
just what is needed to beot the very best.
