? " CHER AW, S. C., FEBRUARY 16, 1922 NO 15' BURNING OF COLUMBIA IS RELATED IX LETTEI Interesting Article by J. T. Boifeuillet In the Macon TelegTapr?Character of War Waged. I Just now whan the anniversary o! the burning of Columbia, February. 17, 1865, is fresh on the minds of the people the following, written by J. T Boifeuillet in the Macon Telegraph will be of interest: "Yesterday I was conversing with a prominent lady of Macon, who, with her 9ister, also a well known resident of this city, were eye-witnesses oi the burning of Columbia and sufferers, too, from this terrible act. She furnished me with cvidenoe of the process by whh-h the union waj restored, in the shape of a copy of a letter whjch was found In the street of Columbia immediately after thf army of Sherman had left the ruined and plundered city. "Hie lady informs me that the original la still preserved and can be shown and substantiated .t anybody desires. The name signed tc the letter was that of a lieutenant ii Sherman's army and was addresser to his wife at Boston, Mass. I am indebted to the Macon lady for the following copy of the letter, which was handed to me with the request that it be published on the 42nd anniversary of the destruction of the fair and beautiful Columbia. 1 can add nothing in the way of continent on such a document. It 9peaks for itself: " 'Camp Near (famden, S. C. " 'February 26, 1865. " 'My Dear Wife: I have no time for particulars. We have had a glorious time in this State. Unrestricted license to burn and plunder was the order of the day. The chivalry ha* been stripped of most of their valuables. Gold watches, silver pitcher cups, spoons, forks, etc., etc., are as common in camp as blackberries. Thr tferms of plunder are as follows: The valuables procured are estimated b companies. Each company is required to exhibit the result of its operationf at any given pace?one-fifth and finr choice falls to the share of the con mander-in-chief and staff, one-fifth to the field officers of the regiments and two-fifths to the company. " 'Officers are not allowed to 3" these exp .-di ions wituoit disguisim. themse'.vs as privates. One of our corps commanders borrowed a suit of rough clothes from one of my men. , and was successful in this place. Hi got a large quantity of silver (among other things an old-time silver m*lk pKcnerj, ana a very nne jjuiu wan.ii. from a Mr. DeSaussure. who is one of the F. F. V'b of South Carolina, and was made to fork over liberally. Officers over the rank of captain are no made to put their plunder fn the estimate for general distribution. This is very unfair, and for tn.it rea-on. in order to protect themselves, subordinate officers and privates koep back everything that they can carry about their persons, such as rin&s. earrings, breast pins, etc., of which, if I ever get home, I have about a quart. I am not joking. I have a least a quart of jewelry for you ar all the girls?and some No. 1 diamond rings and pins among them. Genera; Sherman has silver and gold enough to stAri a bank. His share in gold watches and chains alone at Columbia, was two hundred and seventy-five. " 'But I said I would not go intc particulars. All the general officers and many besides, had valuables of every description down to erabroidored ladies' handkerchiefs. I have m share of them, too. We took gold and silver enough from the d?d rebels to have redeemed their infernal currency twice over. This, the currency, whenever we came across it we burned, as we considered it utterly worthless. " 'I wish all the jewelry this army has could be carried to the 'Old BayState. It would deck her out in glorious style, but alas! it will be scattered all over the North and Middle States. The d?d niggers, as a general rulr prefer to stay at home?particularlyafter they found out that we onlywanted the able-bodied men (and to tell the truth, the youngest and best looking women).

Plenty of Pressure. I Editor Cheraw Chronicle: j Your last week's issue contained i article over the signature of J. Hartzell whldh does me a great inju tice. In writing about the Sund; morning fire which destroyed Ms , Gilespie's barn, the Reverend gentl man criticised praotically everythii from the town council's backbone 1 the water works system. As I am responsible for the efflciei cy of the latter I feel that a reply ' his article is proper in Justice to til i city's water department, to the gener public and to myself. Let me say in the beginning that am not, nor is the water departme! opposed to criticism when it is true ar Just, this is helpful and will be appr elated. He writes: "There was no prcssui on the water when the alarm wi rrl l'ftn nrtrt Ko Hmh xvpc ni on the big barn and concents wei completely destroyed. Why Is not 01 water system kept at a hundred p< cent efficiency so that a fire can be pi out at any tlmje." The flrBt sentence of the above absolutely incorrect Let mo cxplai that in a water system such aB out with an elevated tank, every schcx boy knows or should know, that an water coming from the tank will t under pressure. The appearant of water when hydrant Is ope ed is complete and Indisputable ev denoe of pressure. Thi^ is the law < gravity, a condition of nature, an faileth not If there were only ten ga Ions 'of water in the tank this muc would be delivered at the hydrant ui der pressure quite adequate for fix fighting purposes. The fact is that when this alarm wj given the tank was two thirds full ( water and the pump was in operatioj In further dispersion of his prittl prattle, fire chief Thomas tells me th: on this occasion the pressure wa splendid and Chat the fire departmei succeeded in saving a great deal thd Major's cotton altho' the barn wa j destroyed when they arrived. As to the efficiency of the water sys I tern and of the service it renders I wi I say that the system has been in oper tion almost nine years and during a this time it has successfully met ever demand that has been made upon i and the city has never been withoi an adequate supply of waiter and nc ju-t water but good water, the samp] sent for examination being frequentl commented upon favorably. If this i not satisfactory service I should 1 to know what is expected of a fate work system. Oh, well, there are some people wfo will enter the "Pearly Gates" wit their mouths full of criticism and sue gestionn for great changes if, pt chance, they are allowed to enter wit their beloved earthly necul-triUe! Witlh theee facts before toe peopl of Cheraw, whom I am doing criy be? to serve faithfully and well, I am sc they will be able to determine l'u themselves whether or not the w:ia department deserved the criticism received. r-v J.

I am more in fa\ al ' cr of the all day telephone service w because the expense is less, and any w one can give an alarm from his ov te nouse instead of running a block m in alarm box: and no false n'i m wil rz be rung in by fools who wish to hear &< the fire whistle and see some fun. Yoi s( can catch up with a guilty party by sc his number when a false alarm is h< given. -to But fires on Sunday are not the only pi things that call for an all day Sun- th day telephqne service. Circuxetan. to ces may arise when one wants a doc- cc tor in a hurry. About a year ago on oi a Sunday Mrs. C. fell in a faint. There x. was no telephone service, and Mr. C. v. had to leave her an drun for a doctor, \r. I old and stiff as he was. That took R limo?time enought for one to die. m though fortunately Mrs. C. did not die Then, there is not a Sunday whet f< , someonw does not wish to know about to ! the afternoon trains, and by knowin; save himself or herself the misfortune 1 ye of having to wait at the station, supperless, from one to three hours. Other reasons may be added, not the least of them that thfs is no longer a little cross-roads town, and shoul ? I Si ! not be treated as such. J. S. HARTZELL. Mother's Club l'asses Resolution.
