Dunbarton, May 20’.—According to previous announcement, a large* as semblage collected at the Dunbarton school on Friday gvening to witness the closing exercises of one of the most successful terms the school has enmyed. As early as 8 o’clock the lance auditorium was filled, many pa trons and friends of the school having difficulty in securing seats. The pupils were handsomely dress ed, the national colors predominating in their costumes. These young peo ple had been drilling for some time in expectation of the last great day, and their fpretty costumes, the regularity of the military step, the sweet child voices, the music of the patriotic songs, the miriad of national flags, the unison of their movements made one feel that the military spirit had surely taken firm hold on the people. The writer could not help contrasting the old times with the new—the little school house in the lane beside the handsome two-story brick building of commodious rooms and large audi torium, nicely furnished with modern fixtures, of the present days. Too much praise cannot be be stowed upon Mr. William Dicks and the other trustees in providing the children with first class applisnees. Hpw it would astonish Mr..Caleb Kill- ingsworth and others who have passed beyond if they could return and mark the change! ^ The program of the exercises was M follows: Song, "Wave DM Glory," by the School Bunding. “Your Flag and My Flag," ** w \rjg\n\m nrown Song, "Dolly, Stop Weeping," Theo of the to get a ides The hours for re- frees ive to eevew and to aiwo-Mweff and the Gray with :Xm llfh 1m " ■ilBfc MlMmm the Gem ef STRAYED OR STOLEN TWO BLACK MARE MULES.

He ho* lieen the backbone of the Baptist ('hurch and of many mu nicipal and bu*mc4* enterprise* at well; and his blameless, unselfish life ha* had o wonderful influence in Barn well’s community life. Some years ago, a forml/ resident here on a visit said, “Barnwell has a charm no other town possesses and I do not know what that charm can be unless it be Mr. Manyille.” Many prominent citizens owe their start to this worthy man. He served throughout the war, holding offices of trust, and, it is interesting to note, lives now in the same large house where he took the oath of al legiance to the United States. Henry Ward Beecher said, “Well married, a man is winged” and doubt less that is the cause of all this great man’s greatness. Sorrow and trouble in large measure have come to this pair; but the sweet serenity of their lives discloses an inner source of pow er; and now in the evening of life, they hold a place in the hearts of the people that it would be hard to fill. We all know them, love them, and re vere them. The wide popularity and high esteem in which they are held is attested by the large number of call ers who were glad to write their names in the bridal register provided for the occasion by Mr. Jacob Cohen. the V I Thau NfMRmi; PtoMi IIpmmw Rita VMhni At Crrai At MMr Onnw UNi Mag RmAnk At FWnd ftorttt, FWMt RaRt RfRNml "l*tr!a flam, kip htpa tmi gftriat" rapraraKi bp iwtftt htpt m4 gtria TWm mi tom wart MMradmmd kp rVour l*aria Sam" TW ctoamg ram a# "JaMtoa," Aa "TW Star Spaagtod Raaaar " TW facwlty. all af wham wart sa rtor! rd fur tW rwaaMsg paar. to aa IfaRaara: Nr.
