It is stated that c Saturday evening about sundow~n, the eapproached a farm house in IAxingte e county, and requested the privrilege e spending the night in the barn as the clothes were in no condition to spen it in a dwelling house. There ha Sbeen 'a 'heavy rain that eveniag n'ea YChapin and they had to follow the rai on their trip, and' in doing so had t swim one or two creeks, and wer -rolled around in the mud co,nside: .. ably. - The good people of the farm hous r' would not permit them to spend th night in the -barn, but took them i Sand furnished them with a change c r clothing, and during the evening th ,young ladies of the house "washe< dried, starched, ironed and presse .their clothes." They were enable' therefore, to-begin the trip next: mon ing very much refreshed and in presentable condition. P. S.-tIt is not meant to convey th idea that they were going to the cox vention with out a change of line; Their trunks had been checked throug 'to Florence. Seeking the Prizes. Mr. *Jno. H.
