satisfaction of all concerned. Shi# will

and make known her terms.
Due West Dots.

at Mr. 11. 1'. McGee's.
Mr. J. B. Bonner spent a portion of

Mrs. ?J. M. Mollatt will spend one
month with friends in Hue West.
We have several times heard this suggestion
made: "Would it not be a good
thing for our pastor to preach a sermon
occasionally to the children?"
The last issue of the Mkssenoku, for
several reasons, was much ,sought after
here. It was regarded as an interesting
eopy.
business took us into the Abbeville
bank last week. Maj. Barnwell is a
capital officer and exceedingly courteous
and attentive to business. President
Wardlaw has established an office in the
bank building and is glad to welcome
his friends. Our people have baen exceedingly
fortunate in the selection of
their bank officers. We learn the bank
will more than meet expenses the first
year, and this is regarded good, for the
heaviest expense occurs the first year.
une thing Abbeville is sadly in need
of, is better mail facilities. Only one
mail is made np there a day. Due West
would feel that she could not do on this.
There is nothing like getting used to a
thing. We hope the day is not far
ahead when our county seat will have
better railroad and mail facilities.
Miss Annie Emmerson left last week
for college, at Williamston. She has
received President Landers' heueiiuiary
scholarship for this county.

county a most useful and patriotic

ute in the last Messknukk.
The Messrs. Brawleys, of North Carolina,
who left lCrskinc some three weeks
ago, have returned to college. They are
nice, smart young men. We are glad to
see them back again.
We hear our old people commending
the type used by. the editors of the
Mkssenuek. There is a great objection
to the small type so much in use now.
it is exceedingly hard to read at night
and hurls the eyes. This is a general
complaint, especially with older persons.
Our community has been shocked recently
by two telegrams, coming close
together, announcing the death of Mr.
Brice McCaw, a young man in the midst
of manhood. A few years back he married
Miss Brice, of this place, daughter ,
of Mrs. Anna Brice. He caught the
nieasels at the S^ate fair, which eventually
carried hint to his grave and left a
widow and three little children behind.
Aguin, last Monday the telegram announced
the death of .Judge Williams,
of Ocala, Fin.' Judge Williams was a
son-in-law ot Jt'rol. Hood. He married
Miss Maggie Hood. rl:his death was
wholly unexpected, the last letter announcing
the line health of the family.
In the midst of life is death, l'rof. Hood
left for Florida next day. He will be
absent about ten days.
We tender our best wishes for sue- i
cess to the Jjnew management of tho
Mkssknukk. We promise to give all the
news dots from this place in as concise
a manner as possible, trying always to
avoid verbiage, which is certainly a fault l
of some correspondents. A long paragraph
may contain little when boiled
down, as we heard an experienced ed- \
itor recently say. i
There is considerable comment here 1
over the recent Trial Justice appointments.
^
Some disappointment is expressed that j
other counties got through a bill in the
Legislature allowing the people to vote
on the temperance petition, and yet
Abbeville county failed when all her
representatives were pledged to it.
Hiss Carie Calhoun has charge of a
good school at Rice's, four miles from
I i-.asly, S. C. It was through Rev. Dr.
Riley's influence that she secured the
position. l)r. Riley and Mr. Griffin,
with whom Miss Carie boards, each
speak of sending a son to Erskinc.
| The Missionary Society, which should 1
have met Thursday night, was postponed
until Friday morning at 11 o'clock,
. ns this was the day for prayer for mis'
sions. Mr. B. H. Grier, president-elect,
occupied the chair and conducted the
meeting, which was an interesting one.
Somehow we imagined this last snow
came down li<co manna, it was so gentle. (
We succeeded in buying a good young ?
mule iroin mil's stables, at a fair pricc,
on saleday. We find Mr. 11. E. Hill to 1
be a clever gentleman to trade with.
Mr. John A. Devlin, of our town,
killed three porkers of his own raising
this year, one of them netting him over
300 pounds.
Prof. Miller spent a large part of l.is
Christinas in Birmingham, Ala., on business.
He is again at his post of duty. 1
Wo had a pleasant, though a cool ride, 1
in company with our young friend W
Miller, to Abbeville, on saleday. Our .
friend is an entertaining talker.
Miss Fannie Calhoun is making a
pleasant trip to kindred at Monterey.
