- * NEWS FROM MCNEILS. -MoNeilf, *_M. DearK4+taf- the n:au is allways whining about hard 'he man|that —You should have been with us last Thursday, a party of about thirty from this place attend • l a a picnic at I’eniel church at Crew’s Ford near Islandton. Messrs Stone and Patrick took us over on a flat car attached to their log train and every body enjoyed the ride. We were met at the head of the road at Deep Creek by three wagons driven by Bros* A Q Lyons, M It Stone and J G Yarn and had a pleasant ride of about a mile to the church. We were welcomed at the church by a host of dear rela tives and friends, ome of whom we had not seen in a long time * It does one good to get back once in a while to the scenes of our childhood joys and sorrows, to meet old friends, and young peo ple grown up, were just a day or two ago seemingly, little frolick- ing shavers, men and women that we left as children a few days ago, now leading their children by their hands. After greetings and a few minutes chat, all went in the church and were treated to some of the best music that the coun try affords, led by i | 'ather Stone at the organ accompanied by a large Choir of well trained voices. Later devotional services was conducted by Bro. Elkins of Hampton, after which he deliver ed a hue address on the value of Sunday school training for the advancement of the church* Another fine address, almost we might say a sermon, w’as de livered by Bro. J S Grilhn of Walterboro, who did his very best and you know Mr Editor that it w as good . After the speaking was over, the men swapped yarns around the roots of the Old Oaks, while the ladies prepared a feas., such as onl} one place can furnish, at least that is what we believe; and every body did it full jus tice,. There was enough left for supper and our only regret was that we were not able to stay and help finish it* If a community is to be judged by the way that the people care for the graves of their dead, this must be an ideal community, one big family; for the beautiful cemetery at Peniel is a model that others might copy with advantage. Mrs It F Huggins, Miss Blanch Leach and Master James Hug gins, of Walterboro, are visiting relatives here this week * Miss Minnie Carter of Mt* Carmel section, is spendig a while with Mrs J T Yarley . Miss Bertha Harvey has gone home after spending a few weeks with her sister Mrs Walter Stone.

Our meeting was called for the purpose to vote off the three mill tax, but we all decided to retain it. We have not called any meeting for the election ef a teacher yet.
