thought the crop will be largely gathered
in the next month or so.

Mr. J. H. Kearse Burned Out.
Mr. J. H. Kearse, a hard-wording
young farmer of the Kearse section,
was burned out last Thursday morning
about two o'clock. He lost his
dwelling and its entire contents, and
his insurance will not near cover the
loss. Mr. Kearse does not know how
the fire originated, but it is supposed
rats caused it. He had been up several
times during the night with his
sick children, and when he was awakened
by the fire, the family barely
had time to get out before the roof
fell in. He had insurance of $1,000
on the building and $200 on furniture,
and his loss is at least $2,000
or more.
Kind friends and neighbors soon
gathered and assisted in saving the
outbuildings, and he desires to heartily
thank his friends for their many
kindnesses. f This misfortune is "a
hard blow to Mr. Kearse, and his
friends deeply regret his loss.

Mission Society last Tuesday afternoon,
Miss Mamie Gee Jennings was

held in Newberry next month.

planned to have the chrysanthemum :
show as soon as the flowers are in 1
bloom and a great bazaar as well ,
during the early part of December. :
Elaborate plans are Demg iorrnea ror
this bazaar and it is going to be the
most elegant, money-making attraction
that Bamberg has seen in some
time. The public will hear more
about these entertainments when the
dates have been decided upon, but remember
that our little city may anticipate
two delightful attractions in
the near future?chrysanthemum
show, and an enormous bazaar, the
proceeds of both to be applied to a
most worthy cause.
Card of Thanks.

I take this method to extend my
hearty thanks to my friends who so
kindly assisted in saving my house,

Tribute of Respect.
Inasmuch as death has removed
from our midst our highly esteemed 1
and much beloved brother, Conrad
Ehrhardt, who was for over fifty ]
years a member of this council, and
whose judgment was for a half century
most important in directing this
council unto the right; therefore be
it resolved: <
First. That we bow in submission
to him who doeth all things well. {
Secpnd. That in the hour of trial <
we tender to Mrs. Ehrhardt and other j
members of the family our heartfelt j
sympathy. ,
Third. That we will ever cherish
the memory of his strong personality, 1
faith, church love and loyalty. <
Fourth. That we commend his j
unwavering service; his close attendance
to all church service; his liber- 1
ality toward every call of the church ]
for home and abroad; his deep interest
and work in the Sunday-school, (
as a most noble example to the young .
of our pastorate. ;;
Fifth. That these resolutions be;
spread upon our minutes, and that |
copies be sent to the Lutheran Church .
Visitor, The Bamberg Herald, and
the Bamberg County Times for publi-;
cation. i,
