Friday, June , 1941
The lato Senator Tillman, didn't do
ull he threatened to do when he arrived
In Washington with hla famous
pitchfork, and, in fact, by the time he
had been at the national capital a
few years he was Just regular runof-the-mlne.
Hut Just the same he
turned loose some wild talk, and probubly
llko the late Iluoy Long, had
l?is staid old associates scared within
an inch of thoir lives until they turned
hint down. It's a pity there's not
somebody up there now with a pitchfork
to ram it into that fossilized seniority
rule that led a bunch of selfrespecting
men for the most part to
feel that they woro honor-bound to
support Hob Reynolds for chairman
of tho military affairs commtttoo.
Why not call in Lindbergh, or John L.
Lewis? Rules may do very well ordinarily,
but in an omergoncy such u?
exists today blind adherence to precedent,
or to tho strict letter of tho
law, might bo suicidal.?Chester Reporter.
AN OLD QRI8T MILL
More than 100 yoars ago, a pioneer
by tho name of Dan Goode established
a water mill several miles northwest
of the present City of Anderson.
Pendleton wus tho nearest town back
then; Abbevillo the largest settlement
with a radius of 100 miles. As for
Anderson, It was Just ft wide place in
the General's road known as French
Store. Dan Ooode was probably a
soldier of the Revolution. At any
rate, be was an industrious man
working up <iulte a large milling business
for that day and time. After
C,code's death, the mill changed
hands many times. In the early 50's
It was washed away by what Is still
known as tho'Great August Freshet.
Tt wns rebuilt and ready for business
by the following summer. Thirtytwo
"year ago, George W. Smith
bought the mill from the late Jim
Martin and operates *lt to this day.
The mill has the distinction of having
the largest overshot water wheel In
South Carolina.?Anderson Independent.

Boys at Fort Jackson
Are Kershaw Guards
Well, It BeemB that there Is a harder
to having Company E of the
3oulli Carolina Defence Forces carry
>n the name of the Kershaw Guards.
Lud that barrier is our own Company
vl, now in service at Fort Jackson,
for it so happens that the prestige
hat goes with the time-honored name
>f the Kershaw Guards rightfully boougs
lo the former National guardsnen.
That letter from Mr. Wallace to the
tkipper started a lot of the old solders
to reminiscing. J. W. V ilson.
io\v 7G years of age and employed by
he city up to a. short time ago when
?> retired was a buck private in the
Id Kershaw guards back In 1880 when
lie famous old unit was under tho
Eldership of Captain W. M. Shanon.
When Captain Shannon returnd
about that time the command foil
n Lieutenant Edward M. Boykin, aciirding
to Mr. Wilson.
Me. Wilson said that the Kershaw
unrds in those days woro blue uniirms
and regular military caps.
