For Diet Cov ington, you recall, was one of our very rich young men, and Ids ap proaching marriage with this or that heiress' constantly heralded. These Huppoaed engagements having been later denied, society immediately be gan to speculate. / The English woman whose hand ru mor bestowed upon Richard hud fol lowed him, it was related, to his own country, and was now in seclusion in an American village. Now, whether this gossip might* be true, society in general was anxious to ascertain; reportera were the young man's aversion, and no authentic in terview had taken place. Richard, on Ida return, made Bright Fort by the sea bis stopping place, and brought the Honorable Bertie with him. Dick expected to be bored, as usual; but his second morning )n Bright Fort changed this expectstlon. Cantering down u leafy l*ne, he came one day upon a witching young creature. The girl's eyes twinkled at him. and she spoke his name. Richard, displeased at the uncon- \enrtonal address, would have ridden on hla way—but the girl smiled, ■ ruoer entrancing smile, and Richard halted—and lingered.

The mihature engine that made the trip twice a day was named for a little girl, “Lula May.” In 1881 the old South Carolina road bought the tramway and constructed a branch to the town. Among the early citizens of Barn well was Angus Patterson, the nestor of the bar for more than 40 years, a shrewd, gentle, kindly man. He long represented his district in the state senate, and was for a number of year* its presiding officre. In an obscure corner of the senate chamber hangs a portrait of the old gentle man. At a time when the rode duello was the sine qua non of the rank of gentlemen, that quiet village of the plain was never the scene of a duel, though even the gentle dignified Mr, Patterson once indulged in a street fight. The rauae waa—chickens! One of his neighbor*, a fellow lawyer, was Mr. Samuels, arm the two old kindliest anj moat beloved of the vil lage fathers. J ~ Some of the prominent lawyers of tho place in former times were tj^a two brothers, Alfred and /antes Al drich, Mr. Owens, the brothers Angus and James Patterson, Isaac Hutson, Mr. Bellinger and many others who were men of distinction. Barnwell gav$ to the Secession convention its speaker, D. F. Jamison; it furnished the army with Gen. Johnson Hagood, general and governor as well as suc cessful business man and planter; with frank Mixsoh, 16-year old sol dier -of the Confederacy, w^o coolly picked up a shell with lighted ami rapidly burning fuse which had fall en into the midst pf a group of sol diers and threw it far away but n second before it burst. Company E, made up of Barnwell boys, bad seven color bearers killed, three of them were brothers. One died holding so tenaciously to his flag that it was necessary to wrest it by force from his stiff hand. Of the whole company after a disastrous bat tle, one ijWm; Thompson, an<j one of ficer, a young lieutenant, were left. uteni )im t The officer, in a spirit of grim humor, began issuing orders to Thompson by name as though he were a company, and Thompson w : th the same grim humor was responding when a miflie hall struck the lone soldier, leaving a forlorn lieutenant alone of Company 1. It is said that there is in BamweH a grave of a Confederate soldier who was bom north of the Mason an I ] Dixon’s tine. His name was Frank Cassidy. He went tn Beaufort in his childhood to live with an unda. and grew up into a genuine Southerner.| He entered the army, and onre hem r j taken prisoner, wgj carried near *o hie childhood I one. and hia paren's went to visit him He was told that 1 gr nt If men werr erruetnmed to walk t<> their offk*e* together every morn | thev were without and thit he might In* One day Mr Samuel* told Mr. !* r * them only on condition that h« Patterson that his rtiirkens .were ••hr the oath of ^tegta've to the him. 1 mining hi* turnip patih. and asked United Btatee With tear* streaming Aaa ilsle charged Hi. hard with hla re- ihat they hr reetramed Mr. Patter- !

Mrs. Mary C. Simms Oliphant, p granddfbghter of the author, haa revised and brought up to date the history of the State written by her grandfather. These are but a, few of the Barnwell County people who have added something to the literature of the State. William H. Duncan, who died about three years ago, left in manuscript a most interesting and valuable historical sketch of/the village of Barnwell to which the present article owes much of its data. Some of the writers mentioned were born and grew up in the district of Barnwell, but are now to be reck oned with the comparatively new county of Bamberg, which some years ago was separated from the former, and named in honor of one of its lead ing citizens, Gen. F. M. Bamberg, who also adds luster to the mother county. Changes of County Seat. During Reconstruction times a car petbagger, Charles Leslie, member of the legislature from the district, was instrumental in having the county seat removed from Barnwell village to Blackville. Four times in eight years was it changed hack and forth. Finally in 1874 there was an ejection held to determine which town should have the court house. The ballot boxes were brought into BarnweM, which was the county seat at the time. It being late before the last one was received, it was determined to lock them in a closet in a building which stood on the northeast corner of Main and Marlboro streets, in which was located the olfice of county clerk. They were to bo guarded through the night by ail men. tHr -e from Barnwell, three from Blackville.

A Memorable Thrashing » If Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe could have seen the thrashing that as Richard rushed toward the girl. At sight of him, Ann started, then smiled In usual composure. “Well?’ she asked him. "It Is I," he said breathlessly, “who ask the question. 'The hour is very late. Ann; you are alone," he glanced up to the balcony whence she had come. "I fell asleep on the rest room couch," Ann pleasantly explained, “and when they locked the ball rootrf, they locked me in, So I climbed out through the balcony window, and here I am ” „ "Ann!” distress was In Richard's tone. “Don't you think you owe it to me to tell me something about your self? “I have loved you as you desired— unquestioning. Now. 1 ask you to be my wife.” “Now?” repeated the girl softly— She paused. “I have told you of my humbleness Richard, hut I think I have never been so humble aa now, before your true love” From the fold of her fccarf, ahe drew her own aiuall glistening fan. “1 am jum a Journalist peraufi.
