were not injured thereby. j \

farmer of Gold Hili, and Miss j J

? Dr. H. F. Alexander and i
wife, of Elizabethton, Tenn., 1
were guests several days the 1
past week at the home of Mr. i
L. A. Harris. Dr. Alexander ]
was a resident of Fort Mill i
some years ago and his many j 1
friends here were pleased to j
have him pay the town a visit. ;"
?State and county officials (
seem determined this year to en.
force the income tax law. Blanks
have been printed and sent out ,
by the comptroller general to ]
the various county auditors, and ,
it is said that they are in turn

will be conducted by Col. !

For a New School Building.
The board of trustees of the
Fort Mill Graded and hiirh sohonl
met in special session Tuesday
afternoon in response to a pe-'
tition from citizens calling- upon
that board to order an election
upon the question of issuing coupon
bonds to the amount of
$10/000 for the purpose of erecting
and furnishing a school i
building adequate to the needs
of this, the 28th, school district.
All of the members of the board
were present. The petition was
canvassed and found to contain
a sufficient number of signatures,
as well as meeting with the other
requirements, and the election
asked for, as will be seen by
notice elsewhere, was ordered
for Tuesday, April 27.
The subject of a new school
building has been the chief topic j
of conversation along the line
of improvements for several
months, and as everyone seems !
enthusiastic and eager for the
building, it is believed that the
proposition will be given almost1
unanimous endorsement in the'
election on the 27th.
It is too early, however, to sa^
anything as to the probable style !
and location of the new school, i
but it is safe to assume that it |
will be as conveniently located
as possible and of a design suitable
to the needs of the school for
a score or more of years to come.
Contractor j\ A. Jones, of
Charlotte, has been awarded the
contract to build a new mill for
Col. Leroy Springs at Chester,
work to begin at once. The contract
calls for the enlargmcnt. of
one of Col. Springs' mills at that
point and the building of an-,
other and amounts to J

R. Hart, Esq., mayor
of Yorkville, was in the city on
business for a few hours MondayT
Mr. Hart stated that it is true
that there have been seven deaths
from smallpox in the village' of
the York cotton mill, outside the
incorporate limits of Yorkville,
but as the city officials are maintaining
a strict quarantine against
the mill village no uneasiness is
felt about the disease entering
the town.
?We have before us a copy of*
the Fort Mill "Clarion" of April
25th, 1889, of which J. S. Drakeford
was the publisher. The
sheet is just 20 years old this
month, and cantains a very interesting

Flint Hill.
Editor Times:?Our community
vas saddened last Thursday by
:he death of Mrs. Hack Osborne,
,vho leaves 4 small children and
i husband. Our community ex- I
.ends its sympathy to the be- I
eaved ones. Mrs. Osborne was
comparatively a young woman, i
Our sick friends don't seem
;o improve. Mr. Barnes Glover !
ind the little son of Mr. Catoe j
x>th seem to be seriously sick at
;his writing.
We farmers are wanting some
ain, and if it doesn't come soon
>ur interests will be very much
effected. The ground is dry and
lard and a very great per cent i
>f the land in this section has!
lot been broken. The cold,
-vindy weather of the last few
lays has effected all manner of
vegetation. We had considerate
ice three mornings in succession.
The Flint Hill school closed
ast Friday with the usual piclic
and games for the kids, with
dorado Bailes as teacher, and so ,
ar as I know all the patrons !
md children have been pleased !
vith her as teacher. The school
closings in our day seem funny j
r? onn nf mv niro WVnan T m.iu I
,w WW V4. .4.J ?T UVII X WUO
i bov and went to school to Mr.
losiah Coltharp. who was a good
teacher, I never heard of a picric
at school closings. We just
vent and learned all we could in
;he short space of time and had
io time for picnics. Then, tor,
ve spent more time in study than
s done in our schools of today.
But I suppose such is' progress.
Misses Rosic and Mattie Bailes
spent some days lately in Char- [
otte and Concord visiting rela- j
.ives and friends.
Well, I am still in a reminis-j
lent frame of mind. Forty-four I
^ears ago today we were in the j
Bull Pen at Appomattox, and
fery much reduced by hunger.
We started from Richmond on
the first night of April and fought:
some every dav and night except
the 8th, which was on Saturday, j
and had not drawn one day's
rations. Some one might say
that would make one feel hungry |
and tired. None but those who
actually did this kind of service
?an tell anything of the feelings
or sensations it produced. Well,
1 think it was 44 years ago today
that J. II. Coltharp and myself
x i.I- ? ! J ll 1 4 1 I
gut, trie i?ea tnai tne Dest way
out of our trouble was to be
social with the Yankees, so we
made them a visit late in the
evening and when we got to the
Yankee army some of them invited
us to take supper. This
was the second day after the
surrender. By this time we had
gotten over the excitement of
the former trouble, but the Yankees
did not have much to eat.
Some of our cavalry had destroyed
Grant's supply train.
I see you have in Fort Mill a
committee to raise funds to supply
one room in the Soldiers'
Home in Columbia. If some one
of that committee will tell me
how much would be a reasonable
amount for me to give, 1 will be
glad to send it to them. I want
to help some in furnishing the
room. Then, too, I see in several
papers articles in regard to a
monument to the women of the
Confederacv. Let. us build one
at Fort Mill. Our woman deserve
to be honored. Let us
build it before they all die. It
isn't best to wait till one dies to
do honor to their faithfulness.
Let us do sometuing to commemorate
their good deeds while
they live. Z. T. Bailes.
April 12th.
The Ardrey-Stewart Marriage.
Mr. George B. Stewart and
Miss Mabel White Ardrey, second
daughter of Capt. J. W.
Ardrey,.were married here Saturday
night at the home of the
bride. The Ardrey home was
beautifully decorated for the occasion.
The groom, attended by
his best man, Mr. W. A. Watson,
of Charlotte, met the bride at the
altar attended by the dame of
honor, her sister, Mrs. J. M.
Oldham, of Charlotte. The contracting
partly stood under an
arch decorated with white wistaria,
while the bride's pastor,
Rev. W. A. Hatfner, pronounced
the solemn vet beautiful words
which united their lives for the
future. The wedding march
, was skillfully rendered by Miss
L,
.V
^ v r > ' l
F ".. -' ii '
Out?, of Johnson, T3. C. A large
company of friends,' many from
Charlotte, Rock Hill and elsewhere,
had gathered to extend
their best wishes to the happy
pair.
Tne groom is a popular and
successful traveling man with
headquatrers at Charlotte. He
is, however, a native of Louisw
ana. The bride is a tall, slender,
attractive brunette of many accomplishments,
who has a large
circle of admiring friends.
The bridal party left on the
midnight train for Charlotte,
whence the bride and groom
started on the early morning
i train to Florida, where the
; honeymoon will be spent. On
! their return they will make their
home in Charlotte.
