C Lak*. 32?) Urdon county has furnished to Freemasonry one of her distinguished sons in the person of the Hon. David Johnson, who was Grand Master of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge Ancient Free Masons of South Carolina from 1825 to 1826. The office of Grand Master is the highest within the gift of the era it. No higher honor can be conferred upon a man by president, king, prince t. r potentate. Grand Master Johnson was the only one of Union county's il lustrious sons to whom this honor was extended. He no doubt deserved this hpnor bestowed upon him by the Grand Lodge Ancient Free Masons of South Carolina judging from a speech delivered by the late Hon. John B. O'Neal, president of the Court of Errors before that body January 15th, 1855, in which he said, in part: "As a citizen, officer and neighbor, he fulfilled every 1 duty and met every expectation. Wherever he lived, wherever he was 1 Known or seen, ne was loved, in his grave ho will be remembered, and you brethren, as you run your eyes over his recorded labors, will drop many a tear upon the pages, and rise from them to reverence and perpetuate, in your hearts, the memory of the great and good David Johnson." The Hon. David Johnson came to this county when a boy from Louisa county, Virginia, where he was born October 3, 1782, with his father, Christopher Johnson, a Baptist minister. For a few years he lived near what is now known as Pauline, in Spartanburg county. He practiced law in Union county and later served as Ordinary for Union county, which office is now known as probate judge, and is held at present by one of his grandsons, the Hon. W. W. Johnson. Practically all his life was spent in Union, his adopted Rome. For a while he lived on his plantation near Lockhart, now owned by the Hon. Jeter Butler. After a long life of usefulness spent in the service of his country q?? died at his home at Limestone Springs the 17th of January, 1855, and was laid to rest in the Presbyterian cemetery at Union. A beautiful pyramidal shaft of white marble marks the last resting place of Union county's first and only Grand Master of Masons. On- the north side of this monument erected to the memory of the venerated craftsmen is Inscribed. In i December, 184G, he was unanimously elected governor and commander in chief in and over the state of South Carolina. Preceding this inscription is the great seal of the state. On the south is the symbol of the Court of Appeal, represented bv a maiden seated in a chair holding in her hand a staff with the words, "Nil U1 tra" chiseled in rainbow style , above?preceded by the worling, "Appeal Court of South Carolina." He , was elected December, 1815, a judge of the Court of Law. In December, , 1824, a judge of the Court of Ap- , peals. And in December, 1835, a ( chancellor. . . l The east side carries the coat-ofarms of the United States and fol- , lows with this inscription, "He loved his country, his whole country." On the west reads. "David Johnson born October 3rd, 1872. Died the 7th of January, 1855. His memory will ever live in the affectors, the records and the history of the republic. His body sleeps here, and here will sleep | till the resurrection morn." Beneath ( j this inscription is a bust of the goy- 1 ernor, as commander and chief. 1 David Jqhnson followed William Ai- ( ken in the governor's office and seiv- i ed two years, 1846 to 1848 as the chief l executive of South Carolina. 1 Suitable preamble and resolutions < were unanimously adopted on the i death of Governor Johnson in both J the Court of Errors, composed of all the laws and equity judges and the < Court of Appeals. ] The Hon. Mitchell King, a member 1 of the bar, which was held in the < chamber of Equity Court of Appeals, I January 15th, 1855, which met to pay < a tribute of respect and regard to the i memory of the late ex-governor, said j in part: "The State of South Caro- ;< lina is again called to mourn the death 1 of one of her rr-jst distinguished citi- c zens. He was seldom wrong, but he claimed no patent of infallibility. Ho 1 was indeed one of nature's noble- j men. He was no less remarkable for t his presence than for his virtues. His j frame was large, well proportioned s and athletic; his countenance grave, \ thoughtful benevolent; his whole bear- t ing and deportment conciliated cs_ t teem and commanded respect; his form was a fitting abode for his mas- t culino anrl wiwprftil inUtWf " ? 5 Yom Kippur Service The most solemn service in the entire Jewish calendar is the Yom Kip- * pur, or the Day of Atonement, which ^ begins on Sunday at sundown, and 11 lasts until sunset of Monday. It is 1 a fast day, a day of repentance and * atonement. 0 The services in all the temples be- r gin with the chanting of the Kol Nidra, a song which has been sung * througout the ages, and one of the 8 most beautiful in the entire list of n Jewish songs. t * ' t In ancient Rome the dwellings of the poor were in flats as in modern 1 continental towns. c Sw li Athenians had no law against para- p rides, saying humans could never 9 reach to that guilt. I What is axpjntad ID happen in this ounty is at present seeing good days n Greenwood county. In sections of hat county the negroes are being wept by a new faith. One of its feat b to stand up daring religious servces and dare members of the congregation to expose any of their mialeeds. The members of this new faith are so devout that their shouts ran be heard for miles on quiet night3 vhen they hold their services. Folowers of the religion have abandoned :he use of cards, dice and white lightling and have taken in their places luch things as singing, giving clean sntertainmenta, etc. The religion is known as t^e Pentazostal Baptist and is led by David Strain, who works in the daytime as a moulder but preaches the gospel during the night and Sundays. They have no church building but hold their meetings in a shack in a district known as Butlertown, a' place with a reputation as Hell's Half Acre. Butlertown in all Its wildest kinds of temper iu never as loud as it is when the Pentecostal followers are convened. On the nights when the meetings are,on tap over half of the town of Butlertown attend the services. The people of the little hamlet say that the preaching of Strom is interesting and many negroes from adjoining territory come across to Butlertown to hear the iron moulder preach. The way the new religion is carried out is for one member to stand up and spot out a sinner and expose his faults. This is done until each member has his turn. The songs of the negrqes are weird and the body of each negro swings with the rythm of the tune. The members have no organ but as Strom says, "We has no orgin, we sings fum de ha5t."?Anderson Tribune. Union Route Two We are still having dry weather; the roads are dustier than I have ever seen.

High Prices Compel Closing Of Gormen Hospitals Hamburg, Sept. 28.?Many German hospitals have been forced to close their doors because of the high prices and the scarcity of necessary supplies, declares a resolution adopted by the hospital doctors of Germany at a conference here. The congress has appealed to the medical men of the world for international cooperation looking to an improvement in the situation through universal reconciliation and rehabilitation. Adoptioiv'of this resolution follow ?d an address in .which Doctor Karl Loening, university professor of Halle, warned of the dangers threatening Germany's invalids. He traced die disastrous affects which high rosts, lock of medicine and food, shortage of housing, etcetera, have produced in increased illness through>ut the country, and said that simiar conditions were developing in countries bordering Germany. Dr. Loening expressed the hope hat the many friends of German nedicine on both sides of the Atlanic, who availed themselves of Gernany's opportunities for professionsi instruction in times of prosperity, vould now come forward to provide he necessities for meeting the situaion.
