C., OCTOB&i 2, 1'913 NUMER 1 Mrs. Hollingsworth Dies at Easley Mrs M. A. 11ollingsworth diet at Easley last Monday morning *about ten o'clock at the home ol her daug.hter, Mrs, R. F. Smith, She was 81 years of age and though she has been growing v4Thier feeble of late the end was not-expected so suddenly, She was taken suddenly ill on last Wednesday and her children were immediately summoned to her bedside Mrs. Inllingsworth, since the death of. her husband, Col. C. L. Hollingsworth, a prominent bus ihess man of Pickens, has lived the greater part of the time at Easley. although she has fre quently visited her other daugh ters. Before her marriage she was Miss McWhorter, of this county, and owing to the fact . hat after her marriage she still ade this county her home gives r an unusually large number 'friends who extend deepest sy pa thy to the sorrowing fam ily. " * She was a mwnian of rare traits of Christ n character. Shs was a devout ember of the Prasbytorian chi.irch here and has done many charitable acts during her lifetime. She has especially been generous to or phanages and at-the time of her death was supporting a child in the Thornwell Orphanage. She was a devoted mother and a con secrated Christian, the two no ble traits that tend to make an exemplary life. . She is survived by the follow ing children: Mrs. M. F. Ansel, of Greenville, Mrs. R. A. Lan caster of Columbia, Mrs. Jones Fuller of Greenwood, and Mrs. R. F. Smith of Easley. * The funeral services were held at the .resbyterian church here last Tuesday afternoon, con ducted by her pastor, Rev. J. C. Bailey, assisted by Rev. C. D. Waller, and her body was laid to rest in the church cemetery. Melvin M. Holder Dead Melvin Aartin Holder died at thieC)ity- ospital in Greenville last Friday night. Some two weeks ago he had an attack of appendicitis and was carried to the hospital where an operation was performed, from which he never recovered. His death, although not unex pected, was a shock to his friends. Everybody loved Mel vin Holder, Ho was a man of high ideals and had great respect for everything that tended to the upbuilding of mankind. He was kind hearted and sympa thetic. If he could prove a bles sing to any one it was niever too cold or inconvenient for him to go. He was of a very cheerful disposition, always looking on the bright side of life. He joined the church in early youth and has in every way shown a Christly spirit. He was a great believer in prayer, and Swhen asked by his lovedi ones if there was anything they could do for him, he would only ask * them to pray for his recovery. His life wvas so good, and his ChrIstian fa ith so undoubted, until we feel sure that he has gone to a place prepared for those who love and faithfully serve the Lord. His place wvill * never' be filled in this world, and how impossible to fill it in the home! Mr. H-older wvas born 'in Wal halla in 187(2, being forty-one years and one month old. lie leaves a widow who was before her marriages Miss Mary Maul din,'daug'hter of Mr. and Mrs. Abe Mauldin, of Easley, and four children, J. D). Jr., Gildeon, - Janie and A~lton. His youngest child, Melvin Mauldin Holder, pi'eceded him to the grave about . five years. HeI also leaves eight sisters and two brothers, His * brothers are Jeff D. and Ben L. Holder of Pickens. Sisters Mrs. Rebecca Smalley, Toccoa, * Ga.; Mrs. Margaret lioatwright, Mrs. Richard Jones, Mrs, Ervin *Porter, of Anderson county: Mrs. Addle D)avis, Mrs. Annic Davis, of Liberty: Mrs. Sallk Greer, of Birmingham, Ala. an-d Miss Eva Holder, of Pick ens. He was a son of Rev. B. Hol dler, one of Pickens County': * ~ oldest ministers, who is now ii his ryinety-first year~ - the funeral sericie were hehi at the house last Sunday after Pleasant Grove News Fodder pulling Is about over In this section and cotton pick ing has taken its place. Jimmie Phillips, Svho has been sponding the summer with D. L. Barker and assisting him as clerk in his store, returned to his home five miles below Green ville last week. He will return in about two months to assist Mr. Barker with his fall trade. Miss Annie Williams, who has been teaching the Pleasant Grove , school, returned to her home in Aiken county last week. She taught a very successful term at this place and we were sorry to see her take her departure from among us, as she was a good Christian girl. We wish Miss Annie great success while she is away. Elmer Fendley, who has been with D. L. Barker most of the .ear, returned to his home at I Norris this week. We hope he will be a good boy and .ome I back to see us again. *The revenue officers were through this section last week, c looking after some- of the law ( breakers. B. B.'Barker is now erecting for himself a new mill house over his grist mill. News reached this vicinity yesterday of the death of Mr. Perry Bates, of Marietta. . He I was the step father of A. B. 0 Talley of this 'county. Mr. 2 Bates owned some property in e this county, but made his home in Greenville county. He was a very old man and was known 0 by a large circle of people and t friends of both counties. He e was buried on last Sunday at Ebenezer church near Marietta. e Thomas Anderson and wife paid the latter's sister, Mrs. J. F. Rigdon, a pleasant visit last Sunday. We wonder if Ed. DeCamp knows anything about Pickens county. When he speaks of t The Sentinel he is speaking of the county and of its subscribers. We guess he is like the man that had the turkey without a bill. Well, Mr. Editor, I guess our i subscriber up north had to pull c on that old overcoat the other o Monday mworning. A Farmer. c Out For Congress Victor B, Cheshire, for seven years owner and editor of the Anderson In telligencer, has sold his palper to a syndicate of An derson business men, and has retired, for the present at least, from the newspaper field. Mi'. Cheshire will enter politics, and his energies for the time being will be (levoted to the presenta tion of his claims for the suf fr'ages of the voters of the third congressional district. ~ '. Mr. Cheshire is one of the hardest fighters and one of the most untiring workers in the dlistrict, andl will doubtless make himself felt in no small degree in political circles. The Courier, and the paper from which he has withdrawn have for somie years taken ' onnosite sides in matters of State politics, and while we have seldom agree d t' with his position, we have bee~n ( forced to admire the fairness and frankness which clharacter ized the war which he waged for what he felt was for the best. We are sure thnit he felt as lie fought, though we by no means agreed with the mieasur'es for which lie fought, nor the men whose causes lie espoused. However we may~ differ from another in opinions, honesty of purpose is one of the miost de sirable traits, and one we are al ways glad to recognize. D)uring Mr. Cheshire's years of service in~ connection wvit~h The1 Intelligenicer he has made an enviable record as a news- t paper man, as the circulation and patronage of Tlhe Intelli gencer wvill bear' witness. He will doubtless enter 1the political arena with characteistic energy and determination. --- Walhialla Courier, Adv. rnon, condulcted b~y jiRv.lDavid M.i Ramsay, and the body was laid to rest in the Pickens cemie tory with Masonic honors, a large concourse> of sorrowing relatives and friends attendilng. To the bereaved .ones we ex tend our heartfelt sympathy. IMay God bless and comfort thiem - in their sad hour of bereavement.
