Once your place burned up at night; we lived about'four mijes from town, ,' but we could see the light reflecting against the dark overhead clouds. ] think you went down to Columbia .and ? . had the Columbia Register print the week's edition until you could rebuild, I well recollect that you said the large heading of the paper was destroyed in the fire; was it not in old English large letters? Anyway a new heading came out and the old never appeared again. 1 Those were good old- times bae* ' there Mr. Harman for me.

The ' latter never held an office to my rec* ollection, but he impressed me sa * being one of tfie most active men ir political welfare. i His daughter, Miss Mary, was foi > several terms my sehool teacher arfd I have never forgotten the influence for good she exerted, nor the care ' with which she watched over hei scholars. I would like very much tc 1 get in touch w*ith her. if possible.
