ACCEPTS BAPTIST PASTORATE.
Rev. (?. P. White, of Union, Comes to
Bamberg Soon.
Rev. George P. White, of Union,
has accepted the call to the pastorate
of the Baniberf Baptist church, and
expects to come to this city within
the next few weeks to take up his
work here. A call was extended to
Mr. White some weeks ago. He
came to Bamberg recently and conferred
with the members of the
church, and last week he signified
his acceptance. Mr. White has been
for the past four years pastor of the
First Baptist church of Union. He
resigned the pastorate of the Union
church last Sunday, and expects to
come to Bamberg during the coming
month.
In view of Mr. White's acceptance
of the call to Bamberg, the following
summary of Mr. White's work as
pastor of the Union church the past
year from the Union Progress will
be of interest locally:
j As showing that the First Baptist
church of this city is endeavoring,
and to a great degree succeeding, in
helping to fulfill its mission, Rev. Mr.
White quoted some figures relating
to the church's affairs. For the conducting
of the church's affairs and
given to local benvolent causes the
total was the fine sum of $4,490.77,
of this $855 went for Foreign Missions,
for Home Missions $348,
State Missions $268.11, Orphanage
$349.37, for Ministerial Education
$135. . There were quite a number
of other small miscellaneous amounts,
while the total for pastor's salary
and actual operating church expenses
was $2,606.
During the four years of Rev. Mr.
White's pastorate seventy-eight members
have been received by letter,
forty-one by baptism, and one restored,
making a total of 120, while
i Mr. White married twenty couples.
| In the Sunday-school department,
! the following figures for the year
ending with the month of August are
given, the average attendance for
1913 was 163: for 1914 it was 175;
for 1915,192; for 1916,210; and for
1917 it is 212.
The pastor presented some interesting
comparisons for the regular
work which goes on year after year,
excluding special contributions for
special objects. Some of those falling
under this class being:
State Missions, Home Missions,
Foreign Missions, Orphanage, Aged
Ministers Relief, Ministerial Education
in 1913 was $1,288.50; for the (
same causes in 1914, $1,775.40; in
1915, $1,630.62; 1916, $2,571.78; j
1917, $1,994.44.
In 1916 there was a special gift of
$400 to pay the outgoing expenses
of their missionary, Miss Lora Clement,
and $250 to the evangelists that j
was included in the Home Mission
fund, which causes did not request
contributions this year. 1915 was the
year following the outbreak of the
war, which naturally had a tendency
to curtail donations to some extent.
One foreign missionary and two
ministers have been given very material
financial assistance in securing
their training and this has been done
largely by the men's Baraca class.
At the conclusion of the services
Rev. J. W. Speake, pastor of Grace
Methodist church, made a very happy
little speech in which he said it was
an inspiration for him to have been
thoro nnd tr? have heard the report
made. He had traveled all over
South Carolina, and had heard rej
ports of many churches, but that he
had heard none better than this of
the First Baptist church, and that it
would be a real joy for him if all
I churches, including his own, could
get a vision of leadership and get
his people to follow him, as was evident
had been done in the First Baptist
church of which Rev. Geo. P.
White is the capable and beloved
| pastor.

May Pave Main Street.
Mr. W. J. Nichols, concrete contractor,
has submitted to the city
council a proposition to pave Main
street with concrete. In accordance
with this a preliminary survey has
been made of the street from the
passenger station to the cotton mill,
tho arpfl nrnnosed to bp Daved. and a
bid has been submitted by Mr. Nichols.
It is understood that other
bids are being asked for.
City council is now endeavoring to
. figure out ways and means to do this
much needed work. It is stated that
the paving will cost in the neighborhood
of $12,000 to $15,000. Council,
has yet, of course, to devise a
j method of getting the money, but it
> is not believed that this will be difficult.

CAITSK OF DKATH UNCERTAIN.
Negro Died; Wound on Head.?Did
the Mow Kill Him?
On September 1 8th Ben Rhoad, a
negro, died under peculiar circumstances.
He had been involved in a
difficulty, and had been struck a blowby
George Kearse, a white man, when
he says the negro cursed him. The
blow does not seem to have been a
serious one, and the doctor did not
testify that it killed the negro. The
negro seems to have been taken sick
immediately afterward, and died. As
to whether the blow caused death,
the jury was uncertain; so no one
has been accused of the homicide.
It is said the negro was under the influence
of w-hiskey at the time. The
negro was driving an automobile and
had run into a ditch. Mr. Kearse
' - *1 it-- i ?V,
was trying to pun lilt; uai uui ?ncu
it is said he struck the negro.
The inquest was held on Monday
by Coroner Zeigler.
Dr. Robt. Black testified that he
performed the autopsy and found a
bruise over the left eye and that
there were indications of a hemorrhage
from the nose.
J. R. Strickland testified that when
the car was ditched, a white man
came along in a car and tried to get
[ it out; that he could not do so, and
the white men all went to a farm
house to get dinner before proceeding,
and that Ben Rhoad stayed behind.
When they returned from dinner,
they Mound Mr. George Kearse
had come up while they were away,
[ and had secured a team and was trying
to get the automobile out of the
ditch. Mr. Kearse told him Ben
Rhoad had cursed him and he had
struck him. Witness saw Rhoad
squatting in the ditch. The negro
got up and went to a tree and laid
down. When the car was out of the
ditch and ready to start, the witness
took him by the hand to help him in
the car, when the negro told him to
i. -V ? 4- + Vt n t "llQ Vl o rl
wail a muuieui, ma. i, vv
vomit." Witness waited on him a
few moments, and then helped him in
the car. Rhoad told him he had
been hit, but he was not hurt. much.
The negro told him he did not want
to go home "until he got better," and
got out at the edge of the swamp,
telling him to tell Cleveland Cradle
to come and take him home.
Cleveland Cradle swore that Mr.
Strickland told him that Ben Rhoad
wanted him to come down to the
swamp and get him. Witness went,
and found Rhoad lying down. That
he went and got Wolliam Rhoad and
together they went up to Ben, who
told them "that the police had hit
him." William Rhoad carried him
home.
William Rhoad told of carrying
the deceased home from the swamp.
Said he did not speak after leaving
the swamp.
J. H. Smith said he carried Ben
Rhoad to Olar that morning; that
Rhoad put a "quart bottle" in the
car before they started. Rhoad did
not return with him, but he saw
him in another car when he was returning.
He heard the negro say
his wife was afraid of drunken peo
pie, and not to carry him home then,
because he did not want his wife to
"see him drunk.

EHRHARDT IMPORTANT TOWN.

Hustling Bamberg Town.
The following appeared in the Sunday
News and Courier under an Ehrhardt
date line:
"It may not be amiss to scribble
a few lines from this 'hustling,'
'bustling,' progressive little town,
one of the best and fastest growing
small towns in lower South Carolina.
Twenty years ago this beautiful little
place was a wilderness, removed
from all railroad communication save
by going to Bamberg, then about sixteen
miles away. ^Today a town of
aboi^t 1,000 people and growing faster
than any other of its size, with
waterworks and electric lights, two
| strong banks and something like 20
retail stores, doing a large and flourishing
business, and several more
handsome brick structures now in the
course of building. A good town, a
goo? ..people, a great farming country
and bound to come to the front.
Watch Ehrhardt grow!
"The Hon. W. D. Bennett entertained
Col. James G. Padgett, of Walterboro,
last Monday night. Senator
Padgett came over from Walterboro
to deliver an address before the Red
Cross society in the Lutheran church
at this place. The distinguished and
silver tongued senator from Colleton
was introduced by Mr. Bennett in a
few well chosen and happy remarks
to a large audience. Col. Padgett
immediately launched into the subject
of the war, its causes and effects
on this country and held his audience
spell bound with his fiery bursts of
eloquence and logic for more than
an hour. His closing 'peal' was one
of the loftiest and most inspiring
heard at this place in a long time.
He literally carried his auditors up
with him into ethereal heights. His

Death of Mrs. M. E. Hartzog.
Mrs. Mary E. Hartzog, one of the
oldest and most beloved residents of
Bamberg/county, died at the home
of her daughter, Mrs. L. C. Rice, at
Denmark on Monday. The funeral
services were held from the
Denmark Baptist church Tuesday
morning, conducted by Rev. J. D.
Huggins, pastor of the Denmark Baptist
church, and Rev. J. M. Rodgers,
pastor of the Methodist church of
Denmark. The remains were brought
Dor?ViAi?r ond intaprod ot I
LU uauiuci5 auu lut^ngu jlvv/u^uuu |
cemetery. The funeral and burial
were attended by a large number of
friends and relatives of Mrs. Hartzog,
who was one of the best known
women in this part of the State.
The following were the pallbearers:
Messrs. W. L. Riley, J. Wesley
Crum, Jr., J. J. Owens, J. B. Calhoun,
W. H. Faust, and Dr. J. G. Boozer.
/Mrs. Hartzog had been in ill health
for a long time, and her death was
not unexpected. She was at the point
of death a few weeks ago, but had
recovered to some extent.
Mrs. Hartzog was the widow of the
late Mr. Samuel J. Hartzog, to whom;
she was married in 1855. Mr. Hart-|
zog died many years ago. Eight chil-j
dren were born to them, of whom five
survive: Mrs. L. C. Rice, of Denmark;.Mrs.
William Gilmore Simms,
of Barnwell; Dr. Henry S. Hartzog,
former president of Clemson college,
now a resident of St. Louis; A. Sid
ney Hartzog, mayor of Greenwood;
and Dr. Octavius B. Hartzog, of
Greenville. She is also survived by
one sister, Mrs. Calhoun, of Barnwell.
Mrs. Hartzog lacked just four days
of being 84 years of age. She was
born in Barnwell county, the daughter
of the late G. and Eliza Owens.
She moved to Bamberg before the
war, and it was while the family was
residing here in the residence now
occupied by Mr. G. A. Rice that Sherman
and his men passed through
Bamberg. While in this town; Gen.
Sherman made his headquarters at
Mrs. Hartzog's house.
About fifteen years ago Mrs. Hartzog
disposed of her home in this city
and has resided for several years
with her daughter at Denmark. Mrs.
Hartzog was a woman of strong mind
and character, and she was exceedingly
well versed on matters of public
interest. She had been a consistent
member of the Baptist church
since 1859. There was perhaps no
person in Bamberg county better or
more favorably known than this good
woman, and the news of her deatn
carries with it genuine sadness to
her numerous acquaintances. Although
she was advanced in years,
her mind remained clear, and it was
a pleasure to converse with her on
any matter. No one has anything
but good to speak of her. Her children
have lost a devoted and loving
mother, and the community has lost
one of its best citizens, for her influence
was felt far and wide. While
her health has not permitted her to
visit Bamberg for several years, she
retained the friendship until her
I Hooth nf manv acauaintances in this

city. Her residence here is recalled,
with much pleasure by all of the older
citizens, who knew her as one of
the best women in the county.
