IS MARLBORO IN THE LEAD ?
. In progressive agriculture we believe
she is, (Jan she hold her place ? Not
with thc roads she is willing to put up
with . Unless public attention is direct
ed,lo the necessity ol road buildingr-not
r?ad-working, we have done that all our
lives and still have no roads worth the
name-we will surely lose our place.
Richland county, whose natural pro
dnetivencss.falls below ours, is leading
tight away (rum us in road building.
.Two years ago her chain gang under a
wise superintendent began road building
from Columbia out on the roads lead
ing into the city. Years ago the writer
lived in Richland county and used the
Garner's Ferry road In going to and trom
Columbia. Some of Marlboro's older
men have traveled the said road Irom
Columbia to Camden'.and know what
it means to go over a road whose depth
of sand is unknown. The Garner's Fern
ry road was like the.old Camde 1 road,
and now c.ich have been transformed
into roads equal to the best streets in
the city of Columbia. .
I verily believe our Commissioners
should go over to Richland county and
inspect and make a study ot their sys
tem, Clay upon sand and sand upon
-clay. During thc Reunion in Columbia
Jrst week I rode out on Garner's Ferry
road's miles through a sand section that
was built two years ago. and has never
had anything done to it since.
That road is made over 13 miles. My
friend's horse never broke his trot alter
leaving Columbia till we reached his
home-8 miles distant in''45 minutes, and
he was not heated in thc least. He told
me that with two mules he hauled to
town the same loads that two years ago
required 4 mules
Years ago some of us began to agitate
thc need of a stock law. We got it after
-uvhile. The rest is history. Would we

>ad to shuw ilia! with admixture ol
md it never cuts ;r. no matter how
davy the load. Tali, with any citizen
living on thc road 1 traveled recently and
he'll convince yon that road building is
thc next big move'forward 'that South
Carolina should make.
The building ol a white Republican
party in South Carolina so eagerly look
ed lor. by those wanting positions in it,
and some others, dwindles into a shadow
ni compared to our need ol good roads.

Mr. Editor-On thc night ot the 7th
Mr. J. I). Stanton, Supt. on Mr. C. S
McCall's Pipkin place, was aroused by
squalls of a dog as il engaged in a fight,
fie immediately went out on his back
porch and lound a strange looking var
ment, He emptied his pistol at it and
it went out of the yard very reluctantly.
Mr. Stanton went into thc house, got his
gun but before he got out it had return
isa and seized his pup thc second time,
As he approached thc animal ran out ot
thc yard and he shot at it willi his gun,
but could not tell with what effect. He
began to feel a little nervous, went into
r he house and shut thc door.
The bear or whatever it was then went
over to Mr. Alex Chavis' and ran his dog
off, From there it went K> Mrs Mary
rjhavis' and fought her dog, a very large
cur.. From the tracks made and other
signs on the ground it is conceded by all
to bc a bear.
On Friday the loth one ol Mr. Henry
Cottingham's hands saw something walk
ing a pasture lenee near a bay. He re
ported the lact, a large crowd gathered
with guns and went in search, and soon
jumped two large loxes--or supposed to
be. Wliile in pursuit they found a nest
ol' seven young ones, but it is very doubt
lui whether they bc foxes or not.
Mr, James F. David happened to be
near alter the capture and got a pair ol
young ones Irom Mr. Stanton, and has
them on exhibition at his home. Those
who have seen them say they never saw
anything like them before.

Mr.Editor-I find alter looking around
a little that there is still some that have
not paid their road tax. 1 have worked
22 men Irom our community this week
on thc public highway, 1 did not find
a man who had not paid his road tax
who did not do his work cheerfully.

REMJH?SCENCES OF OLD BEAUTY SPOT
Mr> MJItor:- 'lt was my privilege to
attend tho mooting of tho Sunday School
Gonfcrouoo nt Dean ty Spat, on Friday, tho
first day of tho.toolon.
In writing about lt, lb Is not ray pur?
poso to givo an account of tho proooedloga
that ill bo dono by others, I fuel that I
o*n venturo to Bay this much I board tho
discussions., of tho different topt?a that
wore Ou tho progjaramo fur that day and
tho epooohcs, I connido red good.
Tho bushman of tho Ooaforoaoo and tho
namo of tho plaoo wheo it wa? assotnblcd
awoke in ruy nil nd recollections of tho
long ago. BI x ty ea von yon rn ago I with
ot h OTU walked th rc o milos to old Beauty
Spot to attond Sunday School, and I can
not recollect any who woro eoholars except
my kinsman Robort H. Hamer who la a
littlo oidor thnn my dolf, and Mrs. Julia
Wat HOD aud Mrs. Druci Ila Stubbs, I do not
undorlnko to Bay that thoy aro all wno
uro now ilving who belonged to that Sun
day Hohoo!, tboy aro however all I oan
roc ol Ice t. Nono of th 680 named wore pron
cat on Friday, had they boon I could bavo
enjoyed a Reunion with them.
Eli Thomas was suporlubjndonfc. Tho I
malo teaohora wore John MoOallum, Wil- !
liam Dudley, Jnmo<? H. Bolton and Gol j
William J. Cook.
Wo did not hav? any International Leu
son? thou. Our lossona woro in a littlo book
with tho title ".Scripturo Questions," it had
nothing in it except tho questions, thoro
was no comraot.t, no explanatory notOB, all
tbo help ono could got was from tho Toa
turnout, and this wo woro undor tho ?0?
coasity of haviug in Btudylug tho loiaoci. I
committed cb memory vorsos of Soripturo
whioh I buvo novor forgotto'n, In thone
days St was common to toaoh spoiling and
reading iu tho Sunday Soho1)). Tho primer
Websters bluo back spelling book and tho
oatcohism woro nil contained lu tba Sunday
Sohool Library,
Singing was not a Bpoolalty, thora was
no othor bowden tho Motbodlst Hymn book
Gol Gook and Jumen II- Bolton mined tho
tunes, an excellent order for that day, bu?
tho ohildion did not Biog, not beoaoso they
could not sing, but they scoured to think
tho Hinging bsd to be done by tho grown
people. The children could B!P?J, for whon
at homo they might bo often hoard aiuglog
the Gamp Mooting Bongs, whioh they bad
learned at chose annual gatbotioga.
But a hu! bo wo vor largo tho Bobool how?
ever interesting, ns tho fall of tho year
oamo on and tho mornings beoamo oold it
hed to bo buspendod for tho winter, Thoro
wore no stovos usad in oburobes in those
days the ohurobos in the aountry gener
ally woro not ceiled aud it was host for all
eoncomed to BUBpand,
It had boon said by eomo that '?Stoves
aro a means of graoo," I don't know so
well about that but I do kno.v fromexper
ie nco that they aro a moans of comfort.
Tboy contributo to tbo woltara of tho
Sunday School*, and of the congregations,
and largely to tho welfare of tho proaolu
ors.
I now havo vivid rcooleotions of how I
used to suffer io the early part of my min
istry, when tho Sunday mornings woro
odd and it was neoossary for me to travel
eight or ten milos to my appointmont,
when 1 reached tho place I was suffering,
lingere aching, feet cold, my body obillod,
and no plaoo to warm, except tho Sunny
uidu ot tbs olia rob, aud that would only
warm me enough to holp mo ebako Uko a
man with attuo, aud if I started with any
qualifications for my duty, it ^as mostly

Though it moy bc? digression from the
tm bj cd of Sn ml ay Boboolt), I will hero re
late au incident whioh OOOUrod in my min
isterial career Lear thirty yearn ago, I bad
an appointment about eight milos fmm
homo, ou a bitter cold day. Wboa I reach
ed the church nomo four or live pomona
woro around a lightwood knot Uro. After
warming a littlo I said to thom: Ureth
ren this in a vory oold day and if wo go
into the church and attempt to bold a
regular servieo wo nindi euffor, and 1 tbiuk
it would be prudent for UH to bavo a short
sorvico and then repair to our bomen One
brother who was moved by a zeal not ac
cording to knowledge said: 4'No wo oamo
hore t > hear proaohiug and I want you to
preach." I replied if that was tho senti
ment I was ready. Wo went in bad tho
prolimiuary ncr vice. I annouaood a text
fttid preached just fifteen minuten during
that timo I noticed my m.doun brother was
shaking liko an aspen leaf, When wo oamo
out I romarkod to him that he sosmed to
gob vory cold during tho nor vico. YOB said
bo you proaohod BO long. Fifteen minutes
to a man eufferinS with oold listening to

But bo toro I oloso lot mo return to old {

my mind at tho mero mention of that'
placo. Many good people worshipped thoro
From tho days of Robert Parnell all down
through succeeding ages to thu proBont

ted tho church at tho time of its organi
zation. Thoy have a neat comfortable
ohuroh a good working membership, a live
Sunday Sohool, and all tho indications aio
a bright futnro awaits thom, and I somo
times think that whon Bishop Asbury
preached thoro, moro than a hundred
yearn ago, ho must with a prophotio gasso
lookod tar down through tho vista that
tbon reached into tho futuro before him,
when he announced as his text ''Tho wiU
dorness and the solitary placo shall be
glad for thom ; and the desort shall rejoice
and blossom as tho rest," (Isaiah 350 1 v.).
