T ^irps T. BARRrrK FORMERLY OF NEWBERRY Tlie Daily Sun of Gainesville, Fla., in its issue of May 17, contained an account of the funeral of Mrs. Roe buck, mention of whose death was made in The Herald and News of a recent date. Before her marriage Mrs. Roebuck was Miss Rosa Pressley Df Newberry county. At the age of 17 she married Mr. C. Eison, who was killed by a train at Hope Station in 1876. There were two children by; this marriage, both of whom are liv- ^ ing. Mr. Julius R. Eison of this city, and Mrs. W. A. Fulmer of Columbia. Some years later Mrs. Eison married vir T. \f Roebuck. By this second marriage there were two children, Misses Hattie and_ Lucile Roebuck, both living in Gainesville. Following is the article from The Sun: "The funeral of the late Mrs. T. M. Roebuck was held yesterday after noon at 3 o'clock from the First Methodist church, and was largely at tended by relatives and friends, in cluding the members of Kirby Smith '1-- TTT VT,'c Chapter, (U. 1J. v.. lilt; numaua | sionary society, of which the deceas-, ed was a member, and many others who "knew and loved her in life and mourned for her in deatli. Many beautiful floral offerings showed the love and esteem in which she was held. Interment followed in Ever green cemetery. The Rev. 0. A.1 Thrower conducted the sad service." The critics of Mr. Daniels make the mistake of laying it on too thick. If L.e were as bad as they sy he is the! r ?vy couldn't possibly be as good asj they admit it is. 1 - - SJ?IK FINE SPECIMENS _ OF >E )VBEHRY %HEIT Mr. P. 0. W. Setzier of the pomaHa section came into The Herald and News office on Friday morning and left a few heads of wheat winch n?i s!>va hr* .->nr frnrri fhp fir>1ri nf \tr. Adam L. P. ull of tlie same section. He said the wheat looked so nice that he cojld not resist the tempta tion to cut and briii^ a few heads so that we might mention it. Mr. Aull knows nothing or* it. The heads are fr. e inciiss long by acluui measure* ment and a.e well filled and have tho appearance to us of representing ci -neili L i 11?, \ liiixj it uc'ui. u c.i, c we think of it, Adatu Aull has one of the nicest small farms :n New berry county, and he has every coa venience in his home, water works a::d electric lights, and he has plenty of good things to eat as we can bear witness, having dined with him only recently. He is what we would call a good liver. Mr. J. A. Sease, another good New berry farmer, brought to our office on Saturday some specimens of wheat ironi nis neici ol six c*uie?. nu-i wheat has as long a head as Mr. Aull's and has from five to six grains to the pod. It is the finest specimen of wheat that we have seen. But then Mr. Sease comes from that family of farmers in Newberry county who have always practiced the policy of growing on the farm what is needed to live on. Mr. Seose also knows how to grow and fo cure some mighty fine country hams, that is if he does not he is not related to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. L. Sease. Death of Mrs. CV C. Cliase. Mrs. Charles C. Cha.'e, 72 years old, died at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. J. H. Lewis, 24 Lombardy way, Fridav morning. She had been in good health up until Tuesday of this week, when she was taken suddenly ill. The end came like the close of a peaceful day. Mrs. Chase is survived by her daughter, Mrs. J. H. Lewis, wife of .lack Lewis, well known and popular Atlanta business man, and three sons. J. P., of Columbia, S. C.; A. G., of Salisbury, N. C., and J. T. Chase of Danville. Va. The funeral of Mrs. Chase will be held Monday at the old home place at Newberry, S. C. The body will leave Atlanta Sunday night at 7 o'clock. Mrs. Chase was a devoted member of the First Presbyterian church and had endeared herself to all who knew her. She had been living with her daughter, Mrs. Lewis, for about ten years.?Atlanta Journal, 28th. The funeral services were held Sun day afternoon at the residence of Mr3. 0. L.

(Her husband, the late Charles Carroll Chase, died two years ago.) The Rev. E. D. Kerr and the Rev. ?dw. Fnlenwider con ducted the services.

Among those from a distance at tending the funeral were Mr. and Mrs. Jack Lewis, Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Chase, Mr. and Mrs. E. B. Chase, Mr. and Mrs. Aumerle Schumpert and son and Mr. Jerome Chase. The burial of Mrs. Chase recalls the time years ago when the large and'in fluential family of Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Pool made life in Newberry bright and pleasant to many of the citizens of the happy times gone by. Death of Mrs. B. L. Dorrity. Mrs. Etta Kanady Dorrity, wife of Mr. B. L. Dorrity, died at her home in this city on 'Friday evening at 8 o'clock, after a lingering illness, and was buried at Rosemont cemetery on Saturday afternoon at 5 o'clock. The fnnprai services were conducted by her pastor, the Rev. E. V. Babb, as sisted by the Rev. J. W. Carson. Tiie pallbearers, all relatives of Mrs. Dor ritq were as fo lows: Carlisle Kana dy, Thomas Kanadv, Manuel Smith, Hulthri Taylor, Berley Gibson, Walter Hook, Paschal Shealy and Robert Dofrity. The flowers were placed on the grave by her surviving children, which made a beautiful though touch ing scene. Mrs. Dorrity was long a great suf ferer. She had been to the hospital 1 s\a. .ocinno flnri Was tWlCC operated on. Her death, while sad and followed with grief by a devoted husband and loving children, relieves the patient suffering from pain and brings her rest.
