Report or Expert.
To B. J. Hammet, Esq., Foreman and
Members of the Gram* Jury, Gentle
men :
In obedience to your order I . have
carefully examined the various offices
In Barnwoll county and beg leave to
make the following report:-
1 find all the offices In Barnwell
County neatly kept, the officials
prompt and attentive upon their duties.
By your order 1 have examined the
following Bonds, W. O. Simms, Clerk,
J. W. lasEpaafrr sh,tuULu. u. RUey.
rAisurer, W, T.
nu the same in-
heater
Auditor, A; F. Free, T
Cave, Superviso^und tin
sufficient. I
I find no record in the Auditor's and
Treasurer’s offices of any annual set
tlement between said offices as re
quited by law but received assurances
from Auditor a id Treasurer that such
settlements had bc«n niii'ie on tbe 2Sih
June last and that papers had been
turned over to Coi^ptroller General for
his approval and although they had
written repeatedly to Comptroller
Oeli.eral to return said papers the same
had not been returned.
I call your attention‘to the following
claims . filed and approved in the
County Supervisor's office—No. 90, I)r.
M. Bellinger for holding post mortem
examination June 23d 1894, filed De
cember 31st 1894, for $-10.00 and ap
proved for $5,00. NO. 133, Dr. S.' C,
M. Ackerman for. .holding post mortem
examination December tffith 1*91,-filed
January 10th 1895, for $10.00 and ap
proved for f 10.00. No. 299, Dr. W, S.
Havener for holding post mortem ex
amination Feb. 2ml 1895, two weeks
after interment, filed April 1st 1895, for
$25.25 approved for $3,00. No. 350,
Dr. M. jBellinger, for holding post
mortem examination January 20th 1895,
and filed April 1st 1895, 00 and
approved for $15 00. \ '
'1 he minutes in the SuperviRor's of
fices show that Dr.tM.* Bellinger was
elected pn January 10th 1894 physician
to i’oorHouse and Jail, hut no amount
put down as salary. I find, however,
fromduc claims for above services that
the comfietlsation paid Is at tire rate of
$100.00 per annum. Also on April 1st
1895 Dr/ M. BeUingeF was elected
physician to chain gang and toghe
certificates to all persons claiming ex
emption from road duty, salary for
same $125.00 per annum. There is
nothing on the minutes to show when
the Chain.gan'g 'began operation hut
Supervisor states -that the chain g-ng
came into existence April 8th, 1895.
April 1st 1895 the minutes show that
the Captain of Chain Gang’s compen
sation was placed at $25 00 per month
and the Guards at $15.00 each and that
Andrew Kirkland, Captain or overseer,
and H. M. Goodson and Coonle Kirk
land, Guards, were elected. July jst
1*95 it was resolved that Uie County
Supervisor make rules, for the gov
ernment of the chain gang and that lie
have power to discharge all employees
not compTyftig with said rules. I find
from claims presented by II. M. Good-
son beginning August. 8th 1895, and
from Claim Book that he lias been paid
$20.09 per mouth as Captain of Chain
dang but find no recordon minutes of
his ever having been elected to that of
fice. I find from claims presented by J.
S. Connelly, beginning July 9tli 1895
ami frora Claim Book that lie has 1 e tt
paid $!5.00 per month as Guard on
Chain Gang but find no records on the
minutes of Ivin ever having been elected
to that office.
Respectfully Submitted-

The out-rush of public sympathy ex

leaves nothing to he said of the place ha
had made for himself In the affections
of this community where he was born

himself the useful career that has been
so bitterly ended.
But the loss has not been his. In the

manhood: while yet the dews of life’s
sweet morning were glistening on his
brow he hatp bseu chosen- among the
blessed ones jwho are never to know the
griefs and polos that come with years.
For him no carking care, nor dreary
disUlUftlonments; no shuttered hopes
and broken dreams. *»>,,
With visions of joy still shining be
fore his beautiful brown eyes—with
golden fancies sti!! gilding tho heights
to which his hopes were climbing —
with the music of his happy boyhood-
days still echoing in all the rose-
wreathed chambers of hi* artistic soul
his spirit passed out through the balmy,
sunlit evening to-its eternal home.
in the cuushine too its empty shell
was tenderly confided to tbe bosom of
our Mother Earth, where it rests be-
neatli the mound of powers, heaped by
loving hands. ~
May It comfort the torrT and bleeding
hearts that mourn him to tiiiuk of all
the happiness' that was his—of alltlid

There can be no other comfort for
grief like theirs.
The father’s hope and pride—tho
mother’s light and joy—the sisters’in
spiration and delight are butied with
iiis body under tho'sighing plugs—and
Love Diviue abides with him and them.

'’Jaaxis Hagood AUhinJi, quii son of
Col. end Mrs. R
ohei t'Aldricli, died on
Monday afternoon of pui'al vsis caused
by an abscess on tho brain, aged 22
■yesfts- . . . ' . ' .
He had jmst conpieted hi* framing
for tho battle of life and reached the
heights of manMpod when lieiv&s called
to turn away from the future that lay
so fair before him, so beautiful with the
heart love of parents and sisters, kin
dred and friends, nil aglow with the
sunshine of young years and unclouded
hope, to lay aside his armor and enter
within the white gates of eternal peace.
That one so young and well beloved,
so-gifted with such rare grace of per
son, kindliness of heart and unselfish
ness of spirit, so'well equipped in mind
and habit to help uplift to better
heights the lives in touch and sympa
thy with his should he taken away hn-
fore the (lower of ' hi* life should open
into fullest fragrance, before the fruit
that after ycats held out to hope should
ripen into perfect sweetness is thc-dis- |k,
pen>ation of a Providence that poor,
stricken, hapless humanity can not
now undufstaiid. Such a thread of sor
row has run through all the years that
have passed since time began and the
choicest souls of nil generations have
been first gathered to the better land.
He has laid down the cross of brief
life and put on the'erow n of immortali
ty. Our loss, hi* gain is the one com
fort left to his loved ones in their ago
ny of sorrow. „ Their treasure is above
and in the Father's own good time they
shall meet him again and forever.
Only a fow short days ago he talked
to u« so cheoiily of Ids boyhood and wo
had no thought that even ilien the shad
ow of Azraei’s wing was falling on

man judgment, from the ways of mcti,
but the Master had Jove and need for
him greater than all w ho would have
held him longer in their mid-t.
To us it seems that some tamiliar, ra

as best headquarters for purchase of all
Merchandise, aud sale of all'country
produce. To them and to the general
sublie I beg to express my sincere be
nef that belter day* than we have
known since the outbreak of the war
between the State* are just dawnlngon
us. The busine** experience of thirty-
five active years has taught me to look
ahead and I sm sure that I am not mis
taken in making this prophecy.
So strong is my confidence that I
have during my recent long visit to the
leading Northern cities secured tho
Grandest Stock of General Merchandise
that I have ever handled or that any
merchant has ever brought to South
Carolina. Perhaps I may have over
bought, but I think not, for I found that
the Panic had held Northern manufac
turers and wholesalers by the throat
more cruelly than It had laid hands on
the farmers of our State. They had to
sell, [bought. And the proofs that I
was fortunate crowd my store rooms
and ware houses and invite by their va
riety, excellence and ci7?!$ipue»s the pat
ronage of all who wisely want all that
they can get for their money, cotton or
other produce. Out of this vanishing
panic have come these sound new re
quirements of business tlist producers
and consumers must get neater togeth
er aud that tho day of high price* Is
gone forever. Acting on those princi
ples I have bought from first hands In
all lines snd taken advantage of every
fair opportunity that my presence and
cash down put within mv reach. I un
derstand this reconstruction of our
business melhodMtnd accept it, and ex
pect and intend by incrcastngthc range
and quantity of sales in all lines of mer
chandise to take modest eare of myself
and to put good heart and hope into

Without attempting to cataloi
attractions that I have secured I beg,
by way of suggestion, to ask the atten-
tion of tho Ladies to tho opportunity
offered them of buying in comfortable
leisure at homo all that they need to
malfo them happy in heart and hand
some in tbe eyes of men at
PIN MONEY PRICES.
Dress Goods in latest and loveliest
Fabrics. Ready Made Jackets, Cloaks,
Skirts, Underwear, Dainty and Sub
stantial Shoe* and Slippers, Trim
mings of ill kinds, and. In short,every
tiling that thev desire and deserve, anil
life is too short to enumerate all.
SUPERB CLOTHING. *
My stock of clothing Is so wide
ranged that the largest man and the
small boy can be fitted as well as with
tailor made garments, only the best
goods and workmanship were used in
their niMtiufaeture, ami prices are too
cheap to be toldHn print. For men-and
boys 1 have an ample stock of dress
and business shoes. I have gathered
the best from the leading manufactu
rers of the Eastern and Western States
and cap suit every taste and give the
fullest satisfaction. Hpeclal attention
is asked to the goods of the Bay Slate
Shoe and Leather Company, the most,
durable made, and so cheaply priced
that they will almost go off withotit
words. -
f offer underwear that will defy
winter w inds and summer heats, hats,
gloves and every thing needful for
health and comfort.
For Furniture, Hardwtffce, Buggies,
Harness, Saddles and ‘everything row
quired by house holders, In town or
country, 1 offeradvantages thatcan not
be’cqiialled South of Mason and Dix
on’s Line.
In Groceries I have the best grades
of all goods, bought in wholesale quan
tities and to be sold as they were pur
chased, at bed rock prices for cash.
My heavy stock must be unloaded, and
the early buyer will get advantage of
the rise in prices that may be expected
later iu the season. The wise buy
with their first money, so that their
heeds are supplied before it Is wasted
for chips and whetstones.
Customers, old and new, will find a
hearty welcome and the same fair deal
ing that has always marked my bus
iness life. I would prefer for them to
come : shopping iu tho morning, as R
w ill take them all a busy day 16 see
my good* and become accustomed to
my below zero prices. They will find
better .bargains here thsn the best de
tectives could discover in Augusta,
Charleston or Savannah.
Yours to please and profit,
