Monumental Association.
Dr. J. F. Baggott has begun work in a
nost laudable undertaking, and one that
should have the cordial support of all
citizens. He is endeavoring to organize
i memorial or monumental association,
vhich shall have for its object the erectng
of a monument to the heroes of the
Confederacy who fought in the old Bamberg
Guards, and the preserving of the
listory of the company, etc. It is proposed
to erect the monument in Bamberg,
md in a short time a meeting will be
called for the purpose of organizing the
issociation and putting the work under
vay. The Doctor hopes in about ten
lays to have the original roll and a his
:ory of the company in his possession.
The history will give an account of the
prganization of the company, the battles
it participated in, and all matters of interest
pertaining to the command. We
will publish the history at an early date,
and we feel sure it will be of great interest
to our readers, many of whom had
friends or relatives belonging to the company.
Sad to say, but few of its members
are now alive?the fact is that most
of them were killed or died during the
war. The Bamberg Guards enlisted at
the beginning of the war with over one
hundred men on the roll. They surrendered
fit Annnmattox with onlv seven men.
To preserve the history of this gallant
command and rear a mpuument to its
noble dead should be a labor of love and
pride to the citizens of Bamberg. Let us
all help on the good work.

I'WIIUUl I1IJ? II I'UOIIIW^ ...v..

in the past two weeks that her illness became
serious. Her mother went over to
Florence last week, and was with her
until the end, returning with the body
Monday morning.

Church, having joined when quiteyoung.
She loved her church, and was always
prominent in church work. Possessed
of a sweet voice, she always sang in the
choir, and was ready and willing at all
times to sacrifice her time and talent for
the cause of Christ. A wave of sadness
spread over the town on Sunday when
the news of her death reached here, for
she was popular with old and young.
She carried, a happy smiling countenance
at all times, and those who knew her best
loved her most. She leaves an infant
just two weeks old, a girl, which is being
cared for by its grandmother. To the
bereaved husband and family, we, in common
with all, extend our sympathy.
Mrs. Hunter, the young wife of Prof.
O. F. Hunter of the Florence business
college, died at her home in this city
yesterday morning at ten o'clock. The
remains were taken to the old home in
Bamberg where the funeral services will
be held and the interment made. Mrs.
Garland, mother of the deceased, was
summoned here yesterday and accompanied
the body home.
Prof, and Mrs. Hunter came to Florence
several months ago from Orangeburg and
opened a business college. They resided
in Dr. Clement's house in East Florence,
and immediately made many friends.
Prof. Hunter has the sympathy of the
pnminnnifv?Florence Times.

Death of Mr. E. It. Drawtfy.
Govax, S. C., Nov. 19.?At an early
hour this morning our people were shocked
by the unexpected death of Mr. E. G.
Drawdy. Mr. Drawdy was sick but a
very short time. Although he expressed
doubts of recovering in the beginning of
his illness, still his friends did not realize
that death was approaching.
Mr. Drawdy was reared in Colleton
county, but had been living in this coramunty
about thirty years. He leaves a
wife and seven children. He was an
honest and upright man, respected and
loved by his neighbors, and was ever
ready to leud a helping hand, ever ready
to be of some service to his fellow-man.
The entire community mourns his loss,
and feels that a frieud is gone. His remains
will be buried at the cemetery of
Friendship church this afternoon. May
He that hath power minister unto the sad
hearts of the bereaved family and friends,
is our prayer. J. F. C.

ling dew drop, as it bathed the petal of a
flower. He beheld the kaleidoscopic
shades playing hide and seek as the sun
kissed and warmed it! "This atom of
my handiwork is clever, I will transform
it into flesh and I wille breath into it a
a spark of life. Now go forth and seek
your mission, child of my love, it awaits
you. I will send with you a guide, which,
in time, you will recognize as conscience.
He will never forsake you; follow him,
and though at times you may be tempted
to condemn him, listen, and his 'still,
small voice' \Vill speak in tones more
tender. I will give you no other directions?do
my will and you shall come to
me and I will receive you in glory !"
Gentle as the moonbeams, modest as
the violet, true as her guide?conscience
?innocent as the lamb, this "atom of
God's haudiwork" drifted on the tides of
twenty-one years seeking her mission !
"Enough !T) calls the Record Bearer,
"your mission is done, the Master wants
you." Click ! and the golden thread of
life snaps?the spirit is free!
In fancy we hear the anthems of joy as
they echo from the battlements of Heaven.
In fancy we see the Savior smile,
and we hear the harps vibrate in sweetest
melody the name of Reba!
An Advertising Fanner.
A Wisconsin farmer has adopted a plan
of advertising in his home paper which,
he declares, has saved him much valuable
time and brought him handsome returns
for the money invested. He says: "When
I am ready to sell my stuff, I insert a little
advertisement in the local papers telling
them what I have to sell, and if any
live stock how many head of each and
when they will be ready to ship, and the
result has been that the buyers are right
after me either personally or by mail, and
naturally I get the highest market price.
If I want a cow, a steer, horse or a dozen
each, I insert a little advertisement that
costs maybe 25 cents, and instead of traveling
over the country inquiring of my
neighbors who has this or that for sale,
the home newspaper does it for me at
less expense, and those who have what I
want manage to let me know in some
way." Here-is a suggestion that might
, be profitably utilized by farmers every ,
where.
