As you see 1 am in Colleton county
again; 1 say to visit relatives and
friends, others say otherwise, so let
it go at that, anyway. 1 am falling in
love with vour county and I think I
could live here except for the sand,
and yet these sands must contain
some fertilizing properties, by the
fine corn and cotton I see along the
road. Most of the cotton is picked
and 1 hear, ginned and sold, and the
prices, advancing. So my predic
tion for 15 cents will yet be realized,
and then the farmers go crazy for a
larger crop for the next year, to the
neglect of their home supplies, and
therefore another start downhill.
Well, I am down from Orangeburg

After supper the crowd returned
to the parlor when a fine violin
are struck up the tune of Sheram, and
all | almost immediately there was a full
set on the floor in response to the
sweet tone* of the m*tr«Ment and
they continued until a reasonable
hour when everything broke away,
and the writer does not think that
there was a one who did not enjoy
this occasion. Earthly pleasure is
not the thing they are looking for,
but your scribe is now bent with age
and his head is now in blossom for
i the grave, but when that old fami-
i liar tune, Sheram, was struck on
that excellent violin, by one, Mr.
Warren, who knew how to draw a
bow, it just made me feel g<x.»d all
over. Your scribe thinks that since
cotton has gone to 13 1-2 cents that
many a father and mother will lose
their daughters in the near future.

“Olympia” of Islandton about the

DEATH OP AN INFANT.
The death angel visited the home
of Mr. and Mrs. John Robinson and
claimed for its victim their little
son, William Joesire, on October
21st. He was born March 21, 1909,
being only seven months old. Jde
was loved by all who knew him and
his bright smiles and dear little
hands will be missed by his mother
and father as well as many others.
Little William was too precious a
gem for this sinful world, so the
angels have taken him home. He
had many friends who loved him but
the dear ,&ord loved him best.
We had a little treasure once,
He was our joy and pride.
We loved him, ah perhaps, too well,
For soon he slept and died.
AH is drear within our dwelling.
Lonely are our hearts today
For the one we loved so dearly
Has forever passed away.
A Dear Friend.
DEATH OF MRS. HERNDON.,
In loving rememberancc of Mrs.
Elizabeth Herndon, who departed
this life Oct. * 45th UM»y. She was
sick only two we*4is and all wasjdone
for her that loving hearts and hands
could do but to no avail. She was
sixty-five years old. She leaves three
children, two grandchildren, three
sisters and four brothers, besides a
host of relatives and friends to
mourn her loss.
She was laid to rest in the Old
Field cemetery near Tabor church,
although she was a member of the
Grace Advent Christian church. She
was a kind and loving mother and a
true Christian, being loved by all
who knew her.
Sleep on dear mother.
And take thy rest.
We loved thee dearly
But Jesus loved thee best.
Granddaughter.
