Hart volunteered from school in May, 186), and entered the Confederate service as orderly sergeant, Company A, 2nd regiment of artillery, and served in the i defence of Charleston, on James Island until that Island was surrendered to the enemy. The night before they oc cupied Charleston,he by a forced march reached Cheraw, S. C., three days ahead of Sherman's army, as a member of Company G. He was captured at Cheraw while on picket duty, was paroled and reached his home at Black ville in May, 1865. He taught a pri vate school in Blackville for three months during June, July and August, then went with the old South Carolina Railroad ax lumber inspector, and served with them at their shops on Line street until 1869. Then Mr. Hart farmed until 1872, when he went into the public school as first grade teacher and has taught since with success, hav ing sent from his schools to higher institutes of learning as many, if not more, young men and women than any other one teaching in the State. He will be 69 years old on the 18th of October, 1972. “L. I. Brownlee. “Ridgeyille, S. C.” “If the man who fights in bloody wars for the {dory of his country should have a medal and a pension, what reward should be given to the veteran of the schoolroom, to the man who has grown gray in the service of the State? What do we owe to a man who served his country as a soldier for four years and has taught in the public schools every year for forty-one years? This is the record of W. W. Hart, of Barn well county, who is now teaching at Ridgeville, S. C. He is now sixty-eight years old, but hale, hearty, and able to do a man’s work. As a member of the Barnwell county board of education, and as a teacher, he was always an advocate of local taxation. By his own initiative he is responsible for the voting of A special tax in at least a dozen districts in Barnwell. Do you not think this man should have a pen sion?” Prof. Hart is now a teacher in the Galilee school and is evidently living up to his past enviable record. . .. Tax Notice.
