I4 THE PEOPLE'S JOURNAL VOL 12.-NO. 41. PICKENS S. C., THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 27, A SKETC1[ OF OLD 1ENDLETO1 Some Stories of 1tlhe TownM In portslice nnd Glory in the Lonj Ago. Anderson Daily Mail. Those of the younger generatio who are familiar with the quiet litti village of Pendleton at the preson time can scarcely realize ita former ini portanco and prosperity. Far back in the dim regions of th( past this dull, quaint town was th( center of reflnement, wealth and cul ture. Surrounded by a line agricul tural section, the farm lands afforde< to the wealthy slave-holders ample op, portunity for the successful cultivation of various products. Along its rura] streets echoed the footsteps of famous and gallant men, whose names now adorn the pages of history, and noble, beautiful women, whose gentle, re. fined natures and domestic qualities rendered them capable of dispensing the hospitality for which this section was famed. Perhaps our readers who chance to give the present town a casual glance would be interested to know for fu ture reference that Pendleton was once a large district, comprising what is now the counties of Oconce, Pickens and Anderson, covering an area of 60 or 70 miles square. It was obtained from the "'croxee Indians in 1777, but the set. .ment was deferred until after the Revolutionary war of 1783. The district was named in honor of Judge Henry Pendleton, a native of Virginia and one of the judges of the court of common pleaR of South Caro lina. He was a nephew of Judge Ed imuud Pendleton of Virginia, born in Culpeper County in 1750 and (lied in Greenville County in 1787. le volun - 1eored in the first regiment organized in Virginia and served under General Greene in that State. At the close of the war he settled in South Carolina and was elected judge of the law court. He originated the county court act which was passed in 1785, was one of the three judges appointed to revise the laws of the State, and was a member of the constitutional convention of 1788. The first court house at Pendleton was built of logs, located in the edge of the town on a beautiful branch. The only trace of the spot now visi ble is a slightly elevated grassy knoll, near which the school children are wont to assemble on festive occasions. Toward this historic spot the lawyers wended their way from all parts of the immense district to attend court. It is said that the original Bible upon which the oaths were sworn is now preserved in the archives.of the new court house at Anderson. There are very many points of inter eat 14' and around Pendleton connected with the remote past. Here is to be found, situated upon an eminence, "Lowther Hall," bought by Lord Lowther of England at a cost of $10,000 for a shooting bjx on ac count of the large quantity of game in the county. This building commands a magnificent view of the stately Blue Ridge mountains. Further down the street we come to the time worn cottage of John Miller, well known in connection with the famuous Junius lett,era. John Miller was a native of Lomdon, andi was one of the part,ies who ownedl the Evening Post. When the letters of Junius were published by John Woodfnll in the London D)aily Advertiser and the at tempt was -made sto discover the au thor of the letters, who was a man of splendid genius, John Miller, the printer of the letters in the olilce, fear lng he would be implicated, ied to America, lauded at Charleston and pushed his way to Pendleton, where he settled. He died in 1809 and was b buied at the Old Stone church. He -,lefLibehind him many highly respected citizens, Hie was the foundler of the Pendleton Weekly Messenger, the first paper published in the State outside of Charleston and Columbia. Col. Francis Kinloch Hlugor was 2, once a resident of this town, and his life is interesting in connection wit h the history of his attempt to rescue :1 General Lafayette from the pr[isou of Olmutz, in Austria. The attempt failed, and he was himself imprisoned eight months, and was only released - upon- the condition that lie would leave the country never to return. Another feature of interest at P'en dInton is the old sun dial to be seen ii front of the Farmers' Hall, which wam presented to the municipality by Gen, F.'K. Huger. IAt a short distance from the hall on another street wt come to the law oflice of the Hon Warren R. Davis, member of Con gress, the greatest wit and 'handsomes :440 .6f his tinfe. Hie was the brother in-law of John C. Calhoun, and thi a1 wner. -of: the. beautiful residenct 'noyrn as Keowee. - This court house which followed th4 ;oIla log building stands in the cente of tJhe square, and the jail, a briel "blutiing of 'antig.io design, may b seon not far away. This churches of tltis-rural town ar also interesting. * St. Paul's..Is the old est Episcopal eohurch in 'the Stat above Columbia. In its cemetery 11 * bngedtspy prominent cItizens of th p lace, viz., Gov. Frank Butt, Ger Barnard Bee,,~ who gave to Generi Jaclison the fandous : soubriquet - "Stonewall," Gen., Clement Stepheni Sliut., Jenry 'Stephens, Lietena: shubhriek Vof. the navy, . Capt. Ale {Wayley,. Mrs. Johm C; Calhoun, alt Th6mp.~G.: 1oaon, fourider of Olen son Coll~'t'. t~ .Jasylr Adam D. D.. the iev. Andrew Cornish, ar many others, including Confederat soldiers. On a beautiful hill overlooking Sen eca river, whose placid waters roll o and on, gathering strength as they gi until the broad oxpan e of the loft Savannah is formed, on this loft3 height are the graves of the family of Col. Andrew Calhoun, the last of tht 1 name who owned Fort Hill. o The first settlers of Pendleton were t from Virginia and North Carolina, - and among them General Pickens and General Anderson of the Revolution ary war. Later on settlers came from Vir nia in larger numbers ; also from harleston, among whose names we notice the Piuckneys, lugers, Prin. gles, Norths, Gibbes, Stuarts, (ail. lards, Cheves, Elliots, Bees, Stephens, I'rioleaus, Trescotts, Smiths, Haynes, Warleys, Adgers, and many others. Notably among the first settlers from that grand old State, Virginia, were the Earles, Ilarrisons, Le'vises, Taliaferros, Calhouns, Taylors, Sloans, Whitners, Robinsons, Burts, Kilpat ticks, and others whose names are still prominent among the present resi dents of Anderson County. This Piedmont section of our beloved State is fast growing in favor and leading in the various arts and industries, which isrequisite to the full develop. ment of her many resources. Continuing the past hiatory of this noted section, we stroll in imag;nation to secluded spots. From a magnili cently wooded hill can be seen lower down Seneca river near Pendleton the spot where General Pickens concluded the tieaty with the Cherokee Indians in 1783, by which the lands were ceded to South Carolina. On a battle ground on the Eighteen Mile creek, between this historic spot and our village of seven hills, many unique Indian relics have been found irt,m time to time. The Old Slone church, which lies three miles from here, deserves more than a passing notice, but this historic and sacred spot is well known far and wide. .v o more sacred landmark stands in the upper part of South Car olina. There on old weather-stained tablets we find the names of family trees whose branches are spread far and wide over many States of the Union,. such as Pickens, Whitner, Maxwell, Lewis, Sloan, Benson, Kil patrick, Reese, John Miller the print er, Dickson, an:i many others, all 1 worthy and honorable citizens. Near by on one side of the cemetery is the grave of Thomas Bynum, who fell in the memorable duel with Hon. B. V. Perry, of Greenville, which took place in 1833 during nullification times. The grave was formerly marked by two magnificent pines that seemed to stand as lonely sentinels above the quiet spot for no loving hand has ever raised a marble shaft to perpetrate the last resting place. There is a legend (we give it as such) that these pines grew from two poles upon which the body was borne from the wagon to the grave, and A ere placed at the head and foot of the grave and forthwith took dep root. This is given upon the best authori ty, and we leave the sequel to the thoughtful visitor to the spot at the present time. This Old Stone church was first built of logs in 1791. In 1802 it was built of stone. In the church yard lies the remains of ive of the ministers of this church. E~LizAniTII W. TAYLOR. Penidletoni, S. U., Nov. 15, 1902.

What 11aH Been Accoini,ishied in the Past by Mixing Sandl andcl Clay. The Columbia 8tate, Nov. 17. Out of the 550 and odd miles of public roads in ltichlaiid County only about 100 miles yet remain to be put in lirst-class condition. During the past year and at present almost every road in the county has been placed in the elegant condition which has elicited so much admiration from the experts who have inspected them. The work now is being prosecuted with great activity and the results could hardly be more gratifying. The Camden road and its branches has since January 1 of this year been worked to within two miles of the county line. This remaining short distance will not occupy the time of the chaingang more than two weeks longer. The work on the Ancrum Feriy road has been carried to the 19 mile post. About three miles more will have to be overhauled. A new road has been cut from the Camden Pike to the Two Notch road. This is for the purpose of a short cut and is about two and one-half miles in length. The Leesburg road, which '.avcs the Garner's Ferry road between the live and six mile posts and joins the old road from Wateree to Camden, has 1 been completed and is in beautiful con dition. All the cross roads near East over have been worked and the T wo Notch road is in good condition up to 1 the twelve mile post. Almost all of the roads in the upper 1 part of the county are model pikes ex .:ept the Monticello road. This is not io good as the others, but is being put n shape now by a chaingang. 'Tlie sylum road has been worked to a c oint beyond Killians. 'j A bridge and some filling is now be- 1 ng put in by a gang at Crane creek on t ,he Winnsboro road. Another gang r s working on the new road from the 1 amden pike to the Spea's creek .hureh. This gang will be transferred s o the Bluff road as soon as it is pos- s ible. This road is an old one and l hough it is often worked constant t are has to be taken of it. The soil a n the vicinity is not well fitted for i oad making, there being neither sand t ior clay in abundance. An effort will i )e made to carry these two materials i ,o the road and to bu'ld it up so as to f itand travel permanently. The equipnient for road making is m iow more adequate than ever before. c rwo chainganga, numbering about 20 r risoners each, and an additional gang I )f 10 men are kept constantly at work. I rhe health and physical condition of I: he men leaves little to be desired, r heir food, clothing, accommodations, a 3tc., being very comfortable. Good E 3are is taken of them and within the nomory of the present county supervi for only o,e convict has been lost brough death from illness. The gangs cost the county about $10,000 a ear and are well worth the price, as '1 ,he statistics lately exploited by the road-making experts in the South show that the cost of convict labor for the urposo is far less than that of a hired orce. t About $2,000 worth of new machi- 1 acry has been purchased (hiring the C past year, of which sum the cost of I: .hree new road machiines and two t aham dump wagons is the greater part. 1 1'he equipment is now very adequate,t and it is probable that no new machi- 1 aery will have to be purchased (luring I 1903, though constant rep)airs will, as a matter of course, be necessary. A pamphlet has lately been issued < which is a reprint from the Yearbook of. the depart,ment of agriculture for I 1901. It is entitled " Road Building with Convict Labor in the Southerni States," and is by Prof. J. A. Holmes< of Chapel Hill1, N. C., special agent in office of public roadl inquiries for Southern division. Two pages of the pamphlet are de voted to " the sand-clay roads in Rich land County, South Carolina," and areI very readable. T[ho article follows: " The sandl-clay roads in Richland County, S. C., are worthy of special consideration, not only as a product, of convict labor, but also as an illus tratioii of how much may be accom plished in many localities in highway improvements at small cost, by treat ing the road surface with a simple ad mixture of sand andl clay. This coun ty, with Columbia as it.s county seat, is located where the hi country merges into the lowlands, and where the beds of coarse sand and clay are in close proximity. After constructing 2 1-2 miles of ordinary macadam road, at a cost of from $2,000 to $3,000 per mile, the county supervisor (who in all South Carolina counties has charge of the publice roads) wisely decided to try the simpler and cheaper plan of spreadmng sand over the clay roads and clay over the deep sandy roads, and he has carried forward this work to an extent and a degree of eficiency per haps equalled nowhere e18e in the neighboring States. It was not easy to determine -the amount of sand in the one case, or of clay in the other, which would give the best final result. Consequently, it has been necessary to watch the resulting road surface for several months, in some cases adding more sand where the surfaces showed a tendency to give way under traffic in wet weather, or in cases adding more clay where the tendlency was for the surface to break up (huring the dry season. First, the roads were cut to a grade of from 2 to 3 per cent., then *the surface was given the proper cross section for shedding water, this sur-| face slope being kept suill, iently gentle to permit the water to run off slowly and not carry the sand with it. Th clay or sand was then hauled in wagon or carts, usually short distances, an spread over this suirface for a thicl ness of from 2 to 0 inches. The ni rng of the sand and clay was done b the ordinary travel, which was neve stopped, an(d the surface was hlnall packed by the wide-tire wagons an carts or a horse roller. Where th supply of sand needed for spreadinA over the clay load is not found nea by, pockets are inade in the ditchei for catching sand, which is later takei. out, and spread over the surface. " This work has been in progresi (luring the past four years. Every thing even to the construction of thc culverts and smaller bridges, except. ing the guarding and supervision, hal been done by convict labor. The size of the force has varied from 40 to 70 prisoners, whose terms of sentence ranged from a fow aays to live years. During the year 1901 there have been on an average 60 prisoners, divided into two camps. The cost of their maintenance, including the guarding, feeding, clothing and medical attend ace curit g the year, has averaged 20 cents per cOnvict per day, as com pared with a cost of 30 cents per day per prisoner for feeding and guarding while confined in the county jail prior .o sentence and assignment to the road orce. " As a result of this work during he past four years this county now ins (out of a total of about (iO miles )f public roads) about 125 miles of inn )roved satd-clay roads, 25 to 30 feet vide, which cost for grading and sur acing about $300 per mile, and 75 niles of similar roads, which, built mndler more favorable conditions, cost bout $200 per mile. In a few places, vhere the materials were close at hand ad little grading was necessary, it is aid that this work has been done at a ost not exceeding 8150 per mile. le oldest portions of these roads have orne the traffic of three winteis and hree summers in a highly satisfactory manner, and the annual cost of repairs as not exceeded $10 per mile. "It would be a manifest error to uppose that similarly cheap and atisfactory sand-clay roads can b uilt in all other portions of the coas al plain region of the South Atlantic nd Gulf States, for it must be borne a mind that the character and dis ribution of the sand ciay deposits of tichland County make the road build ag conditions there exceptionally avorable, and the management of the vork has been very eflicient. But the uccess in this county and the measure f success which has followed experi lents on a smaller scale in other less avorod localities, certainly suggests a ine of policy and experiment which romises cheap and fairly satisfactory esults at small cost over much of the rea of the South Atlantic and Gulf tates." .AWS ARE NEEI)ED. TO SAVE FORF,STS. 'lie Woolde<( Lin(s Shouald be J'rot.ecte(d F roii Reckclaeas De struction of the Trees. The Charloston Evening Post says l1at Mr. James M. Keys, of Omaha, febraska, thinks that the Legislature f South Carohna should take some ,otice of t,he wanton destruction of hie forests of the State and( enact, laws ooking to the protection and preserva ion of' the great and valuable timber ainds, which are fast being cut, away or the making of lumber. T1hat there Lre annually thousands of acres of imber lands that are imp)rop)erly clear id can not be dboubted, as few men vho are in the employment of these timbering comipanties have a knowl d(ge of forestry, and those that are n possess5IOn of it nevier exercise dlis retion in marking the t,rees that are o be victims to the woodman's axe. L'lhe trees are cut regardless of posi ion and other considerat,ions that hould be observed if t,he wood lanids >f the State are to have any value in he neoxt decade. What, is true of t,his Itate is true of nearly every Southern Itat,o and many of those in the North, West and( Northwest. " I have several hundred acres of slearedI and wood lands in a count,y not far dlistant from Omaha,"~ said Mr. Keys to an Evening Post rep)orter, " and I have observed groat care in the cutting of timber, as I have learnr td a lesson fronm t,hose around me.I im an enthusiastic advocat,e of the en riction of laws that will prevent die erininate lumbering, as I am con vinced that unless step)s are taken in the immediate future looking to the protection of the vast virgin forests of this country these lands will suffer heavily from the attacks of the iumber men, who, as a genteral rule, exercise absolutely no discret,ion in clearing tracts that have been purcha~sed by their companies. They select the kind of trees that are suitable for their mar ketmng without other consideration. The natural consequence is that, gra dually, but none the less steadily, these tracts are being sadly depleted and are being ruined beyond hope of repair. Many a fine forest has already suf. fered from this system of timibering, which has in view only the immediate money return from their destruction. " If every State In the tUnion made provision on the statuto books for thE regulation of wood cutters it would be a step in the :ight direction toWant the preservation of our valuable lands, Instead of their deprecIating in valm they would retain it idefinitely. Al. that is needed is either a State in spector or else some employee of the company who has a knowledge o forestry. This man could . select b; some mark the trees to be remove c without detrimeut to those aro s them. There are thousands of t d1 able tices in every large tract that be profitably handled and these c all be obtained without the least t y to the rest, and this would ,insure r growth of the younger saplings. y time the tract would have ninny t I that could be cut up for market. I 3 widely recognized that these foresl i are worth to a State many times r salaries paid theni. " Take the vast estate of Geo Vanderbilt in Buncombe Cour North Carolina, for example. e i ploys several high salaried men wi one duty is to see that the trees on estate are unhampered in growth. 'J big sticks in the way of young tr are cut down to give the latter an portunity to grow. These men w through the timber tracts and ti note of the existing conditions r then set to work for the discovery i application of remedies for whate evils may be apparent. These men trained in the science who , quick at detecting those things tl should not be. They are regularly structed by eXperienced men, mu the same as one of less years is a to commit to memory and understa the alphabet. The employment such men by the lumber coipani would ultimately result in an app: ciable saving to the State. " A present lanlger that must i be lost to sight is the fact that wi the disappearance of timber tracts t country is more likely to sulTer i verely from freshets. The si streams on the hill sides gather in v< ume as they flow downward and L fore their confluence with larger bodi are ragidg torrents, with a curre like a mill race. Everything in tl path is swept before. It is obvious the thinking observer of these thin that the removal of trees permits the originally insignificant streams gather such force as to work irrepu able havoc to planters whose fields a in proximity to streams. Those thin should not be ; they are remediabl If your law makers will devote son attention to this matter conditio1 will be materially improved. la% are needed for protection of forests, we are to save any trees, and ti necessity is present." Rural Free Delivery. Itural freo delivery is a postal in vice experiment in the 1lnited Stat as yet, but the favor with which it being received augurs well for its sti cessful performance. From the i cently issued report of August, Machen, general superintendent of t rural free delivery, we learn that t workings of the service, so far as t tablished, are becoming more neat perfect and are already very satisfa tory. Superintendent Machen es mates the cost of a complete rural fr delivery service throughout the Unit States at $2-l,000,000. About 700,0 square miles of territory still rema to be covered, which will require t services of 20,000 additional carrici If this ollicial's suggestion that the sE vice be extended by the addition 12,000 routes a year is acted upon, t national postatl lepartmecnt would confronted with a large deficit, b Mr. Maclhen expresses confidlence tha once established, the new routes w, reduce the post,al defIcits t.o about t normal amount,, and perhaps reme them entirely. It, is initended to< deavor to. obtain the necessary app p)riattionls early, in ordler t,hat the foi of rural free (delivery lett,er earri can be increased to 15,000 men by Al I next. While rural free delivery has le been a most popular and'(1success feat,ure of Great Britain's postal s vice, its introdluction in the UJnii States was attended wit,h many n: givinigs, owing to the existence of qu different conditions f romi those obt,a ing in Kmng Edward's home reali England is no larger than an Ame can State, and so densely populat that, there is no rural population int sense that country life is understo here. The houses are close togeti on superbly improvedl highways, a t.o carzy mail there is almost like a lage delivery. In a vast portion of UJnit,cd States people live remote fr< even h::mnlets, the houses are very apart, aind as for roads, there are fi wort,hy of the name, The diflicult t.o be overcome in estab)lishmng ru free dlelivery in the United States wE therefore infinitely greater than ai that the British postal service had meet andl to know that tbey have be miet with measurable success is a mi ter of national congratulation. T1 first routes established were at oi 'so popular and satisfactory in resti that the experimental movement v given a great Impetus, anid alrei rural free delivery is an American stitution, to grew and thrive with years. This is well, meaning as (10es closer communication betwi dwellers in the country, increased telligence through increased use of mail service, and the dissIpation o1 measure of the mntal backwardnr resultant from Isolation. The ri telephone and other accessories civilization follow in the wake of ri free delivery. CASTORI1/ For Infants andi Children.
