Five thousand pine seedlings
were planted this week on the
farm of R. H. Patton near
Gray Court This is the first
;planting of the season for the
Laurens Soil Conservation Dis
trict’s planting crew. Hie trees
are being interplanUd Just fol
lowing the chemical treatment
wf a stand of cull hardwoods.
[Mr. Patton alreudy has some
forty acres established in lob
lolly pines muter the soil bank
program. Ho plans to continue
the treatment of cull hard
woods and growing pines in
their place until he has the
tire farm, some ninety
growing in pines.
. There are woodland acres on
most every form that need this
type of treatment. The Conser
vation Needs Inemtory for the
ceunyt shows that approximate
ly 75,000 acres are in need of
timber stand Improvement
work.
The ASCS, H. A. Ropp, man
ager, has conservation pay-
nine ts totaling $20 per acre
that can be paid to qualified
fanners for both the chemical
treatment and replanting. It
will go a long way toward cov
ering the coat.
Twelve farm ponds in the
county were stocked with a to
tal of 9,500 catfish on Novem
ber 25. Delivery wa* made by
tank truck from the U. S. Fish
and Wildlife Service hatchery
at Orangeburg, filling orders
placed through the local Soil
Conservation Service for ponds
built under the district pro
gram.
District cooperators receiving
catfish were: Joe Bonds, J. M.
Oeland, Claude Lawson, Harry
Leagne, C. P. Powell, J. Ben
Hunter, M. T. Blakely. Whitten
Village. Ben Hall and W G.
Abercrombie.
The catfish are being stocked
in a com hi nation with blue gill
and large mouth bass. The
blue gill will probably be deliv
ered during December and the
bass next spring.

In Wreck Near Here
Warren DougUus Pike, 20, of Alexandria, N. C., is
shown above standing beside his overturned car shortly
after he was involved in a wreck Saturday about 11:46
p.m. Pike’s wife was treated and released from the
emergency room of Bailey Memorial Hospital. Pike
lost several teetiu The wreck, which occurred on In
terstate 26 five miles east of Clinton, is said to have
happened when Pike hit the car in front of him a
glancing blow while attempting to pass. Pike’s car
went around the Other car, climbed the bank beside the
highway, and overturned back onto the shoulder of the 1
road. Capt Robert P. Ouwendizk, a physician in the
U. S. Army, was driver of the second car. Investigat
ing Highway Patrolman L. G. Dobson filed charges of
reckless driving and driving without a license against
Pike. Pike was released on bond Sunday.—Photo by

the church where “the mischief”
of secession had been started.
Two versions of the story exist,
and it has never been verified
which is true. The troops inquir
ed of the church’s Negro sexton
whether that was the church
where ‘ the mischief” took place.
One version says that he replied
that it was not, but that it was
located on the corner to the
south, and the soldiers burned
the old building of the Baptist
Church, which had been built in
1811.
The other version states that
when asked the question, the
sexton replied that the Baptist
Church was on the corner to the
north, and he soldiers set out for
the Washington Street Methodist
Church, and proceeded to burn
it-
The City of Columbia issued
a secession notice after the ac
tual signing of the Oriiaance of
Secession on December 20, 1880.
Dated the following day, and
signed by D. B. Miller, who was
Columbia’s City Clerk at that
time, the notice made the fol
lowing points: that all businesses
should close and observe gen
eral rejoicing over the seces
sion; that bells of the city and
churches be rung at 2:00 p. m.
for one hour; that citizens illum
inate their dwellings and places
of business ? at 7:00 p. m.; and
that the Columbia Artillery and
Commandant of the Arsenal be
tested to fire a salute at 2:00
church bells along with other
houses of worship in the city The
Columbia notice further stated,
and we quote: “That the Colum
bia Artillery and Richland Vol
unteer Rifles meet at their re
spective rendezvous at 1:00 p.m.
in full uniform, and that resi
dents meet at Klnsler’s Hall at
7% o’clock, to ratify proceedings
of State Convention”
The decision to meet at the
church for the first meeting of
the Convention was taken be
cause the General Assembly’s
emergency session was still go
ing on at the Stats House. The
events of secession have added
an unusual note to the history
of Columbia’s First B apjis t
Church. If you would care to
team more about it, you can
read the book, “History ol the
First Baptist Church, publish
ed in 1958. It may possibly be
found in your local Ubrary, or
can be obtained through the
church in Columbia.

It was at Columbia’s First
Baptist Church that the first
session of South Carolina’s Se
cession Convention met in 1800.
This stately old brick structure,
with its imposing giant brick
columns, can be seen today on
Hampton Street, near the corner
of Marion.
First Baptist’s congregation
was organised In October of
1808, and the first two pastors
were Dr. Jonathan Maxcy, pres
ident of South Carolina College,
and Dr. William B. Johnson,
chaplain of the college. The pres
ent church building was complet
ed in 1857, only three years be
fore the historic secession meet
ing was to be held there.
It is said that on the night
of February 17, 1885, certain
members of General Sherman’s
forces were insistent on burning
