Lee and Jackson Celebration.
Fairfax, Jan. 22.?One of the most
delightful social events of the winter
was the Lee and Jackson public
meeting of the local chapter of U. D.
C., held at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
M. A. Moye on last Thursday evening.
v
The regular meeting of the chapter
was followed by a banquet and
reception tendered by the daughters
,to the honorary members, including
veterans, husbands and friends of
the members of the chapter.
The hostesses of the occasion were
Mesdames M. A. Moye, J. C. Preacher,
W. A. Lancaster and G. A. San7
ders.
The night was cold and rainy, but
cheerful, old-fashioned fires and the
glow of many lights bespoke a
warmth of welcome and hospitality
within the house of this honored and
beloved pair.
The meeting was gracefully presided
over by the president, Miss Virginia
DuRant, and the following programme
was rendered: Prayer, Rev.
D. B. Groseclose; hymn (A favorite
with both Lee and Jackson), "How
j - Firm a Foundation:" paper on Lee,

by Mrs. E. A. McDowell; vocal solo,
"Carry Me Back to Ole Virginny,"

president; the programme was concluded
by all joining heartily in singing
"Dixie."
The banquet table was laid with
covers for nearly one hundred guests
and the repast consisted of a bountiful
three-course dinner. An absence
of all formality and the gracious hospitality
of the hostesses and Mr. and
Mrs. Move made the evening one of
rare pleasure for all present.
The local chapter of U. D. C. is one
w of the most active and progressive in
the State, and owes much to its energetic
president, Miss Virginia Young
DuRant.

large numbers of ladies were seen to
be constantly in attendance upon
court. Judge Gary was heard to remark
that he had never before seen
so many ladies in a court room as in

in the testimony ^and paid
close attention to every phase of the
case, and remained interested spectators
through all the evidence and
during the speeches of the attorneys
> to the jury.

KKSIGXATIOX IS FIXAL.
I>apti>t l'astor Will Leave Bamberg
April 30 for Westminster.
Rev. \V. R. McMillan, pastor of the
Bamberg Baptist church, stated Sunday
at the morning service that he
should have to insist upon the acceptance
of his resignation. Mr. McMillan
handed in his resignation on
the previous Sunday, but upon a
unanimous motion asking him to reconsider.
had at that time promised
to take the matter of remaining in
Bamberg under consideration, and
give his definite answer last Sunday.
Mr. McMillan has accepted the pastorate
of the Westminster Baptist
church, in Oconee county. , This
church offers the Baptist minister a
much wider neia. me hbshuiuoiw
church is a large and influential one.
The church has only recently completed
an $18,000 edifice, with fifteen
modern Sunday-school rooms.'
It was stated in the Atlanta Georgian
some days ago, under date of
Chester, S. C., that .Mr. McMillan had
accepted the call to a chain of
churches in that county. This, Mr.
McMillan says, is incorrect. He had
received a call to those churches, but
did not accept the call.

of Rev. Mr. McMillan and his
family from Bamberg, where the Baptist
minister has labored for five
years. The resignation will become
effective on April 30th.

A FRIEND.
IIIQ uiauiiam t anuij
Editor Bamberg Herald:?Some
years ago M. W. Brabham, of your
city, now of Richmond, Va., conceived
the idea of getting up a family
tree. Aided by several members oi
our family, we got together all or
nearly all of our folks who sprung
from the first Brabham who settled
in old Barnwell, or to be exact in
his day, Charleston district, for such
was the case, and when our forefathers
went to court it was to Charleston.
We dare say that the crop
of lawsuits in those days was small
indeed. Back to the subject. Our
family here is a mere drop in the
bucket, for recently I find that there
are Brabhams in Pennsylvania, Wesl
Virginia, Virginia, Florida, Georgia
Alabama, Texas, Kentucky, Ohio
Idaho, Oklahoma, Illinois, Washington,
and Oregon, and all of these
people sprung from three brothers
who were born and reared in Manchester,
England, and came to this
country in the early part of the 18tb
o.pnt.nrv- One settled in Virginia
and raised some eight or nine boys
and the Virginia branch is scattered
all over the North, Soutjh, and West
Another brother settled in what is
now Clarendon county, but for some
strange reason spell their names
Bradham, but our Southern and
Western cousins have furnished me
proof that the Clarendon family and
our family are of the same stock
The most interesting letter from
any of our kinfolks comes from Mrs
Blanche Brabham Riley, of Washington,
D. C. She has the record of the
family going back for more than 20C
years, and will ere long send me
this bit of family history. Anothei
letter that throws much light on this
subject comes from John A. Brabham,
of Oklahoma. He was born airt
raised in Ohio, and has the record
going back for more than 200 years
From Portland, Oregon, also froir
Port Arthur, Texas, are letters giving
valuable information as regards family
history.

dead man's pocket. The negro had
been drinking, but was not drunk, he
said.
J. M. Fickling said that he passed
the corner at the Bamberg Furniture
and Hardware company just before
the shooting, and saw the negro and
Mr. Kinard talking on the door steps
of the store. Witness went on with
the fireman on the B.,' E. & W., to
the B., E. & W. train, and returned
shortly afterward. When he was
about the power nouse, neara pisiui

witness saw Mr. Kinard pulling the
negro out of Mr. E. C. Hays's car.
Mr. Kinard said the negro tried to
kill him. Asked Kinard if he needed
any help, and he replied that he
did not. Went with Kinard and
Smith a little way, when witness
asked Smith where his pistol was, the
negro replied in the car. Witness

by the negro to Dr. Black was read.
In this statement the negro said that
"- -a . ?- nC

Kinard came up, and told the negro
to go home; that when he was a
short distance away, Mr. Kinard asked
him if he had a pistol. He replied
that he had, and Mr. Kinard
told him to give it up, which he did,
and that Kinard said he would have
to put him in jail; they started to
the jail and Kinard asked him howmuch
he would give him to let him
have his pistol back. Deceased said
he told him he had $5.00, and he
gave this to the officer, who later
broke the pistol, took the shells out
and gave it back to him; that soon
after this Mr. Kinard shot him. This
occurred in the alley between Smoak

stores. The negro said he then ran j
back to Mr. Hays's car, Mr. Kinard
following affld. again taking him in
charge.
The jury found that the negro
came to his death from pistol shot
wounds, the pistol being in the hands
of D. A. Kinard.

The case of Jeff J. Hughes, chargew
with murder, was the last case
tried before the case of G. J.
Hiers was taken up in the general
sessions court. -Mr. Hughes
was tried Wednesday afternoon, the
case consuming only a short time.
The jury returned a verdict of not
guilty. Mr. Hughes entered a plea
of self defence. The case against W.
L. McPhail, charged with the murder
of H. W. Walker, which was set
for trial on Friday, was continued
until the next session of court. It
was stated by counsel at the time that
the Hiers case would in all probability
consume the remainder of the

case also, whereupon the judge
ordered a continuance.

The Good Old Days.
I remember the old fashioned kitchen
Where often we used to sit
At night 'round the old log fire
Watching it flicker and flit;
Dad with his feet on the mantle,
After I'd unlaced his shoes,
Propped himself in the corner
And nodded over the news.
\
Around the feet of my mother
We children played all the while.
Whenever we chanced to glance upward
Our gaze was met with a smile.
A9 often we begged for a story ,
Before we all went to bed,
She'd take down the Book from the
mantle?
The story of Jesus was read.
But those days have long departed.
The chair in the corner is gone. i
No longer the sweet smile greets us.
My brothers and sisters are grown.

Those aays, wnen we were an cimdren,
Were filled with ignorant joys.
The trees touched heaven, which now
is
Farther than when we were boys.

GIRL HOLDS MOB AT BAY. ?

When Brother Takes Pistol Would-be
Lynchers Rush Into Hampton Jail.
Hampton, Jan. 21.?Dave Richards,
a negro of Estill, was taken.
from the county jail here last night
by a party f^om Estill, and although
not lynched, he was badly beaten up
and left in the woods. According to
I the negro's statement, his life was
spared as the result of the pleading
of one member of the party.
The reports of the affair vary,
though the salient features are substantiated
by a number of witnesses. I
The negro, who, according to the report,
was drunk, assaulted a Mr.
Glover, an elderly man, who clerks -y
in the store of Marvin O'Neal at Estill,
last night by drawing his pistol f
on Mr. Glover. The negro was arrested
and taken to the jail at Estill.
Later the mayor of the town, learn
ing that a party was being formed
to take the negro from the jail and
lynch him, had him removed by automobile
to the county jail at Hampton.
Magistrate's Constable J. A.
Cook and John O. Smith brought him
to Hampton.
Crowd Makes for Door.
Arriving at the county jail the negro
was delivered over to the jailer,
J. P. Bowers, who proceeded upstairs
to the cells with his prisoner, locking
the front door of the jail. Then
one of the men who brought the negro
to Hampton went back downstairs
to get the negro's hat which,
he had dropped in an effort to get
kaway. When he unlocked the door
and went out he was met by a party
of about thirty-five men, according ,"4
to his estimate, who rushed for the
open door.
Just as the crowd reached the
door, the jailer's daughter, who is >
about 14 years of age, ran into an
adjoining room, grabbed one of her
father's pistols, and rushed baca to
the door, covering the lynching party
with the revolver and declaring that ^
she would shoot the first one that '
entered the door. She held them
thus at bay until her brother, fearing
that some harm might overtake
her, took the pistol from her, whereupon
some of the crowd rushed in
and went upstairs, overpowered the
jailer, took the prisoner and fled in
automobiles in the direction of EstilL
- Sheriff Notified.
The young lady then notified Sheriff
Lightsey by telephone, stating to
him that the prisoner had heen taken j
away by five or six men. She stated
that it was a "put up" game. The
sheriff left Brunson, where he resides,
for Hampton and immediately v
took up the trail of the party but was
unable to' find out anything as to
their whereabouts or the whereabouts
of the negro. Jailer Bowers
pleaded with the party not to lynch
the negro, after they had overpowered
him and taken his prisoner.
Today the negro was found at another
negro's house a.few miles from
Hampton. He seemed to be still ' ?
drunk and was Daaiy oeaien. in? . \
theory is that the would-be Inching
party, on account of the fact that the
members of it were recognized by
several people in Hampton, and as ^
cars from Hampton were following,
the party closely, decided not to kill
the negro, but beat jhim and threw
him out of the car. The negro stated
that he did not know who the members
of the party were. An eyewit- .
ness stated that there were three
automobiles in the party. The negro
will be given medical attention and
brought back to Hampton to await
trial. /
