J MEMORIAL EXERCISES.
Carlisle Myrick is Remembered by
the Folks at Home.
The Memorial exercises held at the
Kingstree Baptist church here Sunday
evening in honor of the memory
of Carlisle Myrick was one of the
most impressive services ever held in
this town.
The church was patriotically decorated
for the occasion, several huge
American flags being conspicious in
the decorations.
The church was thronged with people
to pay their last tribute to a young
man, universally esteemed in this, his
k home and community; who in answer
V to his country's call had died the
j ? iv r?n fnroten snil. And
b UCillU Ui a> iiciu vu iv v>0"
while his body is buried "Somewhere
^ in France" still his memory is held
m sacred and dear by those who knew
W him best and among whom he labored.
The services were, opened with
prayer by Rev. G. T. Harmon, who
prayed earnestly for all the young
men who have been called by their
duty to go to a foreign land to fight
for the principles, of right and justice.
"Beautiful Isle of Somewhere,"
was sung by the choir, after which
^ the evening offering, which was given
to the Red Cross, was taken up.
Rev. E. A. McDowell, pastor of the
church, stated that the exercises held
would have been appropriate . even
under ordinary circumstances, but
were made doubly so since the young
man, true^o his convictions had answered
the call of duty and had given
ud his life on the altar of sacrifice
for what he conceived to be the right.
Mr. S. J. Deery, chairman of the
committee, then read a set of resolutions
which had been prepared,
after which he made a few remarks
paying tribute to the deceased as a
worthy member of the churchi'and
faithful to its Sunday-school. Mr. W.
|a E. Jenkinson, for whom Carlisle Mygf
rick clerked before going to the col^
ors, was introduced, and Mr. Jenkinson
paid a high tribute to the worthiness
of the young man as a straightforward,
honest, honorable employee,
true to every trust. " Gen. Robert E.
Lee had said: "Duty is the sublimest
word in the English language"
and "Carlisle Myrick," the speaker
said, "knew what this meant and
measured up to its highesffctandard."
.Mr. M. A. Shuler, the next speaker,
paid a loving tribute to the memory
? -
of a young man whose example-'other
\ young men could well emulate.
Mr. Laurence H. McCullough told
.of Carlisle Myricfcs measuring up .to.
etery duty in his Sunday-school and
t?at he was one of the young men
who could always be depended upon
to measure up to every requirement
of duty.
Mr. A. C. Hinds recalled the young
man of an honest eye, open countenance,
a pleasant face, a quick and
steady step and he was proud that
^Carlisle Myrick would be numbered
among the heroes of Kingstree.
I Rev. G. T. Harmon then made a
* short address in which he stated Carlisle
Myrick had died a hero's death
because he had died in the path of
j, duty ?bd the world honored a man
V- who thus received his final summons,
)
and that the world drew the sweet
mantle of pity over those who were
caught by the last summons away
from the path of duty.
The Baptist church then voted to
adopt the resolutions prepared by the
committee. This being done Rev. G.
. T. Harmon made the motion that the
resolutions be adopted by the community,
which was done by a rising
. vote.
Resolutions of Respect.
Whereas: It is an undeniable
fact, that we are all created by God,
* who created all things for some good
and noble end; and whereas, God
made man after his own image and
all being of one flesh are therefore,
brothers^ and should have as our
paramount aim to serve Him, who
hath made us and gave Himself for
us, so we in like manner should each
and all of us give ourselves to Him
and to our country as servants thereof.
And.
Whereas, God, who never errs,
saw fit to rid our brother, Carlisle
Myrick, from the horrors of war, first
said: "Son, give me thine heart," to
which call he boldly answered: "I
give my all to Thee." And when the
world's freedom lay in jeopardy, and
r' the long roll of his country ^vas
sounded, he sprang to arms and to his
country's call to do or to die for his
If own dear native land, fully realizing,
B that the path of duty, that he was
I entering held in an unknown and unw
tried land, far away from kindred and
| fond associates. And,
I Whereas, He, who has this courage
' and honesty of purpose to come
bravely out from the world to bear
the cross, of his Savior and enlist in
the service of his Master, and is also
imbued with the same high and lofty
aims to serve his country, his native
land and people for the uplift of humanity
is a christian patriot indeed.
^ And, whereas, God, who gives and
who takes away, whose wisdom none
can doubt, has seen fit on the eve of
bloody strife, to exchange our brother's
service for a peaceful sleep:
Therefore be it resolved: 1. That
we do bow in meek and humble sub
mission to the will of Him who doeth
ail things well;
' 2. That in Carlisle Myrick's
death, the Kingstree Baptist church
has lost a faithful and useful mem
RUSSIANS AGREE.
Fearing Further Onerous Demands
Delegates A crept Treaty.
Petrograd, Saturday, March 2.?
In the fear that argument would
result in even more onerous terms,
the Russian delegation at Brest-Litovsk
has accepted all the German
peace conditions and is about to
sign an agreement, according to a
tplpo-mm from the dplecates received
today at the Smolny Institute. The
demands already have been increased,
they reported.
The message, which was addressed
to Premier Lenine and Foreign Minister
Trotzky, follows:
"As we anticipated, deliberations
on a treaty of peace are absolutely
useless and could only make things
worse in comparison with the ultimatum
of February 21. ' They might
even assume the character of leading
to the presentation of another ultimatum.
."In view of this fact and in consequence
of the German's refusal to
cease military action until peace is
signed, we have resolved to sign the
treaty without discussing its contents
and leave after we have attached our
signatures. We, therefore, have re
quested a train, expecting to sign today
and leave afterwards.
"The most serious feature of the
new demands compared with those of
February 21 is the following:
"To detach the regions of Karaband,
Kars and Batoum from Russian
territory on the pretext of the
right of people to self-determination."
v
The new territorial claims upon
Russia are apparently advanced in
the interest of Turkey. Batoum, a
strongly fortified seaport on the
Black Sea coast, in Trans-Caucasia,
about 20 miles north of the border
of Turkish Armenia, was one of the
cities ceded to Russia by Turkey after
the Turko-Russian war of IS 7778.
Kars, also in Trans-Caucasia,
105 miles northeast of Erzeroum in
Turkish Armenia, has been in dispute
between the Turks and the Russians
for nearly a century and finally
was ceded to Russia at the same
time as was Batoum. The other re gion
jnentioned probably is that of
Karabagh, Trans-Caucasia, lying to
the east of the Kars region and north
of the Persian border.

I BY BUYING NOW I
I have been very fortunate in stocking my store J
^ from the floor to the ceiling with goods at last Sep^
tember prices, which are at least 20 per cent, low- ^
er than today's prices. But, remember! My stock
& can't last long at the rate my customers are now
taking advantage of them. If you, Mr. Reader, ex- ?
J pect to get furniture within the next 12 months, it T
^ shall certainly be to your advantage to do this pur- ' f
chasing at once. I have one more carload which
^ should arrive here about the 1st of March. My ^
store is now about as full as it can get, but by
^ March if trade continues^ I shall have sufficient 1 A
' room for the next car. The March car will com- ^
t plete my September contract, and all shipments 1
hereafter will be 20 per cent, higher. So don't J |
^ put this matter off any longer; do like your neigh- I
? bbr is doing. Get something in your home to make
?, ?. | it comfortable befoFe the price is too high. Leave it V
^ to your wife/and she will buy furniture in prefer- I *
{ ' ence to anything else in the world, for she realizes
that it makes the house a re^l home, as comfort f
yp means happiness. ?
