The following article is from
he versatile and reminiscent
en of Editor C. T. Martin, of
he Easley Progress, appearing
a last week's issue:
"On Thursday morning last,
a company with Hon. E. P.
fcCravey, of this city, and
udge J. J. Martin, of East
'oint, Ga., we went on what
roved to be a very delightful
rip to the mountains, 15 miles
torthwest of Pickens Court
louse, Mr. McCravev very
indlv furnished the transporta
ion in the shape of his elegant
Ld commodious. Maxwell tour
ng: car. Whe'n. we reached
"ickens our party was augment
d by the addition of Sheriff R.
i. Roark, who very kindly vol
mteered to ,,uide us to the home
if Mr. James A. McKee, the last
urvivor residing in this state of
he famous'Palmetto Regiment'
)f the Mexican war of 1846-1848.
"'Messrs. McKee and Martin

5 years, as they remembered.
since the barbecue that was giv
m by the citizens of Abbeville
un honor of the company-on their
return from Mexico in the sum
mer of 1848. Although the roads,.
after passing Pickens. were pret
ty rough,we arrived at the home
of Mr. McKee without mishap,
a distance of 23 miles, about 11
o'clock a. m., 6r about two hours
after leaving easley. Ar. McKee
nor any of his family had been
notified of our coming, hence
their surrise when they saw
Representative McCravey and
Sheriff Roark,whom they knew.
accompanied by two strangers,
'alight from the machine.
"We were met at the door of
their comfortable little cottage
by Mr. John L. McKee, a son,
and Mrs. .McKee, the wife of the
old gentleman. After being in
troduced were invited in and
soon made comfortable before a
fire of .oak and hickory wood.
We found Mr. McKee, -who is
just 90 years of age today, the
25th of March, 1914, very feeble.
He is also nearly blind and some
what hard of hearing. His
mind, however, is bright, and
after he realized the situation,
his memory seemed to return
and carried him back to the
scenes and occurrences of those
memorable days. It was, in
deed, a treat to have the privi
ege of sitting and listening tc
those two old comrades talk
about their experiences in a war
which was fought and won more
than 60 years ago.

Folger,
wish to state that when it is
taken into consideration the
vast territory acquired by the
United States as a direct result
of the Mexican war, and the
vast wealth of that territory. it
is a shame that these old veter
ans are not given a larger, pen
sion."
Letters And Parcel Post
Do not get mixed on attach
ing letters to your parcel'post.
A new postoffice departnient
ruling permits you to attach a
letter to your package m the
mails. But it (the letter) must
show postage (independent of
the parcel post package) which
it would require if it was not
attached to the package.
Be careful not to -understand
that you are allowed to put,. a
letter devoid of postage in your
package. If you do, you force
first-class postage (the letter
rate) on the parcel post package.
Further, you violate 'the pos
tal laws and subject yourself to
punishment in the courts,
If you iwant a letter delivered
at the same time the ,parcel is
delivered, you may attach the
letter securely to the package.
But it is most important that
the letter and the oackage, cach
independently of the other,
carry attached thereto the same
postage as if the letter and pack
age were mailed separately.
