FAR FETCHED.
The yews find Courier takes the
position thot Lt. Gov. Sheppard ought
not to engage in the defense of the persons
charged with lynching Culbrenth
because it is within the ra:ige of possi-1
bility that he may ne called upon heroafter
to pass upon their applications for
pardon. Some of our contempornries
who love to prate of the laxity
of the administration of law may
say this is far fetched and toll our city
friend that catching must precede hanging.
Seriously, we don't think the position
of the yews and Courier is cor
rect. The law does not prohibit the
Lt. Governor from practicing law. His
salary does not enable him to give up
Vi in nrnfaccinn TKia if nn.
uio j;i v'^onivik a iiiq uwvn iiiv at tilforced,
would amount to prohibiting distinguished
lawyers from aRpiring to the
office of Governor or Lieutenant Governor,
as it is in the range of possibility
that they might be called to pass upon
the application for pardon of some
one they had previously defended. It
would not ho contended, we take it, that
Mr. Sheppard should cease to defend any
accused person. This case stands on
iho Kfirm* footinc as anv othnr. It is not
to be tried by different rules and laws.
The same presumption of innocence shelters
and protects these accused persons
hat is thrown around all those accused
of crime till their guilt is proved. They
are entitled to be heard by counsl of
their own choice. Moreover we do not
think it is right to assume that if called
to the Governor's chair the Lt. Governor
would be influenced in deciding
upon an application for pardon hy anything
other than the strength of the papers
submitted for his consideration.
The Ifews and Courier goes so far
as to express the opinion that Senator
Butler ought not to appear for the defense
in this case, because his position
will haveinfluonce with the inrv' Tho
_ - - .. ? I ?
jury is sworn to decide the case upon
, the law and the evidence. If they are
not capable of doing that without being
influenced by extrinsic circumstances
they are unfit to sit as jurors. It is
true that some are so influenced. But
St would be so whether or not the counsel
were a distinguished and eloquent and
popular advocate and h<ild no official
position.
We do not see that Senator Butler
and Lieut, Governor Sheppnrd violate
the dignity of their offices by defending
these men.
DEAT" OF COLi. IjATIMER.
i
Not only the community in which he
lived, but Abbeville County, has suffered
a serious loss in the death of Col.
James M. Latimer. He died suddenly
at his home at Lowndesville on Thursday,
loth inst.
As was said of him in our presence,
he was a tower of strength to the section
in which he lived. He had liv?;d
a life of so much usefulness, so full
x>f good deeds and charity, so pure and
blameless that it was natural that he
CVa..1.1 1
imiuuiu ucui iiiu i auu tuiuna'iiue
*nd affection of all his neighbors and
friends.
He was, almost it may be said the father
of the Savannah Valley llailroad.
He gave it impulse and shape, and labored
unceasingly for its welfaie, spend*
jng his time and his talents and means
for it, For some years he was President
of it* but in all capacities he was
jts firm advocate and friend, It is peculiarly
sad that just as it is nearing its
completion and he had the prospect of
|y - fleeing and enjoying the early fruition
/>f his hopes, that he should be called
away.
Few men were better prepared to die
? . than he, 'J'riily he walked with God;
and however suddenly the dread messenger
came, he found him readv to
journey with him upon that ''bourne
.whence no traveller e'er retnrns."

Joye and gratitude will say softly and

J. Marlou Latimer, Sr.
The town of Lowndesville and vicinity
were greatly shocked by the sudden
death of its most prominent and useful
citizen, Mr. J. Marion Latimer, Sr., who
died suddenly of heart disease about
8 o'clock, Thursday morning, October
15th. Mr. Latimer iirose and breakfasted
in the morning referred to, apparently
In usual health. Soon after eating
breakfast he walked out into his yard,
giving direction to some hands in his
employ about their work for the day ;
and returning to the house sat down
and in a fihort time fell from his chair,
and died within a few moments.
Mr. Latimer has been identified with
this community for a long period of
time, nearly half a century and has also
been known throughout the county and
State as a prominent citizen, energetic
and successful in business and zealous
and useful in the church. Many who
have known him during his long and
successful career will be saddened to
hear of his sudden and unexpected
death ; and those who have been most
intimate]}' associated with him and felt
the influence of his genial nature, always
exnressine itself in nnlitt> nml
and courteous manners, and listened to
his words of wise and prudent counsel,
will find it hard to realize that he is
dead.
Mr. Latimer was born in this County
about two nnd half miles north of the
present site of Due West. Ilis father
Dr. James M. Latimer moved to this
State from Maryiand. with his mother
and settled first on liroadmouth Creek
in this County. In the year 1801 he
was married to Miss Catherine lvay and
mov.'d to the neighborhood of the ores
entsite of Due West, where his son
J. M. Latimer, who was one of a large
family inostof whom hayo died before
him, was horn December 27th 1814.
On the 26th of September,
1833, in the 19th year of his age, he
whs married to Miss Mahala Young,
daughter of Mr. Win. Young, who lived
a few tniles east of Shiloh Church in
this County. lie settled in this neighborhood
and remained four or five years
until about the year 1838, when he and
his father-in-law, Mr. Young bought
land in the Fork, between Hockey and
Savannah rivers, about three miles west
of Lowndcsville, and moved thither
with their families.
In 1854 Mr. Latimer moved to
Lowndesville mid has resided there and
at his plantation since that time. As a
planter he was quite successful. His
exertions in this direction were characterized
by energy, perseverance, and
progressiveness, and resulted in the acOlltlltllnftnn
nf nmnoplu Tli^ 1 :.
v* |? w|/?.i wjr HiO
integrity and capacity were Well known
This will he readily infened front the
fact that when quite a young man he
was appointed trustee of the large estate
of Mr. John Olivitr. This "state
amounted to more than .*{?1C<),C/(XJ.C0 and
was successfully managed by him for a
number of years.
Mr. Latimer has alwaj's shown gretn
interest in public matters that looked to
the building up and improvement of his
county. He was largely instrumental
in procuring the charter for the S. V. K.
R., and was for six years President of
the company. Those only who have
been well acquainted with the progress
*i.:- : * - -
ut unn important enterprise. Know or
tho difficulties that he overcame and
the obstacles thnt he surmounted in his
efforts to afford rail road communication
to the Savannah side of Abbeville
County. When the prospects of the
Road were dark and gloomy, when its
enemies openly exulted over its apparent
downfall, and its friends in despair
wore ready to give it up, he pejsevered.
Oftentimes it seemed that the enterprise
depended entirely 01. his will and
energy, and its present favorable condition
is looked upon by all as a monument
to his business capacity and indomitable
will. The motive that inspired
him to undergo such arduous labors
for the advancement of this enterprise,
was the good of the community.
He expressed himself as not expecting
to derive financial benefit from the completion
of the Road, and the sad event
of his death has happened in accordance
with his expectations. His disinterestedness
is further shown by the
fact, that he received no compensation
for his labor, while his private business
was suffering from lack of his attention.
During the present year Mr. Latimer
had given much time and attention,
and contributed liberally to the buildin';
of the new Methodist Church at
Lowudcsville. In this, as in others
kindred enterprises in the community,
his prudence, judgment, and material
assistance, were considered necessary
to success;* and were giv ?n by him
without reason. It seems a strange co
incidence trial he should have died ro
soon after the completion of these two
public enterpriser, to which he ha* given
so much tune during the latter years
of hi8 life.
As a friend and counsellor Mr. Latimer
had few equals. A large family
connection, and a large circle of friends,
looked to hitr as their leader and adviser.
He was frequently consulted
for advice in business and personal matters
; and to those in distress or laboring
under difficulties, he was always
ready to lend a helping hand, or give
prudent counsel. His natural sagacity
nnd singularly correct insight into human
nature, tnude him peculiarly fitted
for giving advice to others, and his polite
and courteous manner inspired confidence
and prevented civinp oflWiRo
There are many living to-day who
have reason to revere his memory for
the wise counsel given them.
Mr. Latimer's advantages for education
during his youth were limited, but
during his long life he acqurod a large
fund of information that, made him a
pleasant and agreeable conversationalist.
It was perhaps as a chrislrian man
that Mr. Latimer was most widely and
favorably known. He was bronchi un
under the influences of tlic Rnptist
Dhnrch, but about tho year 1840 joined
the Methodist Church at Smyrna.
Very soon after joining the church , he
k&h placed in official, position. Uis
loep piety, reinnrknble personal expe ience
and xeaf, aoon madti him the
eading spirit in thosSnryrna fiuclety;
(nd during his long career as a meiu,
berof the church, extending through a
a period of 45 years, ho maintained his
position of usefulness and prominence.
He was always found ready to contribute
of his means for religious purposes.
He often represented his society in
the District and Annual Conferences.
His funeral services were held in Smyrna
Churrh. Rov. AT T.- ll?nki! nnutm
officiating. Mr. Banks preached an appropriate
sermon froin 1 Cor., 15 ch., 60
and 57 verses, aud concluded with an
eulogy of the deceased that was sad
and effecting.
All Keemnd impressed with the
solemnity of the occasion, and the long
procession that followed his remains to
to the grave, showed the affection and
esteem in which his memory is held.
