Editor Press and Standard: Our community was shocked and grieved over the terrible ascident which be fell Mrs Satcliff last Thursday, re sulting in her death. It seems that she conceived the idea of horning off a piece of ground near her home so that new grass would spring up for the benefit ofc her neighbor’s fine Jersey cow. The fire got away from her and Mrs DeWitt came out to help her extinguish it, there being no men nearer than John Hething- ton’s saw mill. Some how Mrs SatolifTs clothing caught fire. She screamed for assistance and came running to Mrs DeWitt, but instead of stopping when she reached her, she ran in the woods like a mad creature with Mrs DeWitt after her. She was completely demoralized, poor lady-—every bit of clothing was burnt off her. Her sufferings were fearful. Telegrams were sent to her sister, brother, father and mother, but she had passed away when they arrived. Dr Taylor was called, but she was so fearfully burned nothing could be done for her. Her Christian faith and resignation was beautiful to wit ness. The sympathy of the entire community goes out to the bereaved family, especially the husband and little child. John Ilethington accompanied the sorrow-stricken family to Mt Holly, where the body was laid to rest S J Kumph visited Charleston last Friday. Mrs Barnwell and Miss Florrie visited Mrs Perry at White House last week. Mrs Boineau and little Harvey, have gone off on a two week’s trip. leaving Mr B. a grass widower. Mrs Fox and Miss Carrie Fox have returned from Getsinger. Your humble scribe took a ride over the truck farms last week’s end. The cabbages are fine; one can almost see the golden dollars gleaming among the green leaves. Captain S J Rumph’s farm looks fine, but Mrs Rumph’s orange tree, loaded with golden fruit, appealed to me, and to the Captain’s palate too, I fancy, by the way I found him on the porch masticating them; he must enjov them, for there were fewer in number every time I counted them. Mrs Rumph is very successful in growing oranges and lemons. The iemon picked from her tree measured II inches. Can any one surpass that? The farmers are about through planting potatoes. Earle Sanders is planting at Lem's Bluff this year. His father pur chased it from Mr Cooper sometime ago. Mies Marvin visited Tea last Fri day. Mr’ Carter, of Tea, visited the Messrs Kearse and Cassareau bache lor establishment last Sunday, but from all indications don’t think it will always remain a “bachelor’s hall.” One of them has found an anchoring place. Mr and Mrs Rumph visited Hutchinson Islandton last Sunday. Mrs Clark and Miss Nina Martin passed through our town Saturday on their way to the rice plantations to visit the former’s daughter, Mrs Bellinger. Mrs Tillman Pate of Dorchester, spent last week with her father, Ross Fox. ., Zeke Fox of Long Brow, sjient last Sunday near Osborn. Mrs C W King of Toogoodoo, visited Charleston lost Saturday. Miss Mattie Sanders of Little Britain spent last Sunday with Miss Jennie Boineau at Osborn. “Some one” rides in a “rubber tire” buggy often. ? Listen out for wedding bells!
