*Easley, Jan. 30.-An epidemic <
the "grip" has struck this town, an
a large per cent of its population i
more or less indisposed. Drs. Wyal
and Gilliland have their hands quit
full just at present. Mr. Ross He
derson and every member of hi
household is down with colds. fAr
John Craig, our popular merchan
and livery-man, who has been sick fo:
the past week, but was reported bet,
ter, has suffered a relapse, and i:
again confined to his room. Mr
Craig's trouLlo is cold, with bilioui
complication. Dr. Gilliland is at
tending Mr. Uraig and also tho faini
ly of Mr. Henderson.
Mr. Ralph Robinson has bon so
riously ill with pneumonia, but is r,
ported us butter. Ralph is a clever
boy and his many friends will be
gratified to see him out again
Mr. B, C. Johnson was a
on the street a time or two
but was forced back into h
the severity'of the weathe -
either now, or heretofore c
list, are aujor Bradley, W]
O'Dell, and Mr. Frank Day
pretty tough fitrc, and i
pretty heavy blow of most
the "grip" not excepted,
him out."
Mr. Simeon McHugh, a
reputable mechanic, as we
round clever fellow, left Si
his home in Greenville. 1..
had been here for some tw
months, in the employ of
Watson, and by his gen
and pleasant personality,
a number of friends who i
give him up. We hope t
with us' again.
Mr. Henry E. Rector,
mechanic but employed
court house, passed throt
Friday, en-route for b
Greenville.
Quite a number of pro
zons from the county W(
Thursday, Friday and
attendance on tho "Hoi
Convention." They cam
sibly to trade horses, bu(
to avail themselves of somue o tuo ml
bargains offered by oir mer-hant
Though the attendl.rneo was rathe
light for the first~ two days, th
"swapp~ers" wvere pretty well in evi
dence on Saturday, and, altogether
must have been a success from
financial point of view. It was
mixed aggregation of almost evern
variety of horse tiesh, from 'the er
perannuated bone-yard "plug," ti
the head-up-and-tail-overthe-d a s I
board "roadster." In addition t
mere commercial considerations, i
had the effect to bring the people c
the town and county- togethe-r, in in
tinmate touch wvith each other, wvher
questions of economic importanc
could he disscussed, and opinlion
freely exchanged on various subjoct
of domestic inter-est.
Uncle Zeke paid our town a hast
business call on last Th'lursday, an,
did your corr-espondent the honor t<
dine with him. Uncle Zeke is an ol,
and valued friend, whom it is alwvay
a peculiar pleasure to nr eet.
