FROM CATEECHEE. On last Wednesday, the 10th inst., hile the luminous rays of the sun from the beautiful blue sky almost hurt ones eyes and a pleasant breeze from the north was stirring, which made the day an ideal one, the cars and vehicles from every direction began to stop at the beautiful home of Mr. T. H. Holliday. The first car to arrive about 9:30 a. m. contained the family of Mr. Craton Holliday, of Easley, a son of Mi'. and Mrs.. T. , H. Holliday. Of cdurse Mr. Holli day never thought anything strange of his son's visit, but in a few min utes two' more of his sons and their families drove up. By this time the relatives ,and friends of Mr. Holliday from various parts of the county and from th? towns of Easley, Liberty, Williamston and Central began to gather. At first Mr. Holliday was completely dumbfounded. Of course he was accustomed to having his relatives and friends to visit him, but not in such large numbers. After inviting in and shaking hands with several of those who had arrived first, Mr. Holliday made inquiry of his sons as to this extraordinary gathering, when he was told to stop and think for a few minutes. The father of this home then happened to think it was his sixty-third birth day and the next. day, Thursday, was his fortieth marriage anniversary and his sons had taken advantage of the two occasions and run a sur prise on the father and mother. By twelve o'clock there were ba tween 200 and 250 people present. An hour or two in the forenoon was spent in an old time seven up mar ble game in which both old and young taken part. It was amusing to hear those old fellows holler, "fat," "kicks seven feet," "no fudg ing," etc. These games were enjoy ed by Messrs. R. G. Gaines, H. E. Seaborn, Sam Mann, Nelson Garrett and several others, but from the best the writer could keep "tab" Mr. H. E. Seaborn proved to be some "marble shooter as well as a good salesman. About 12:30 p. m. something was said about fixing a table to spread the rations on. In a few minutes a table sixty feet long was prepared and the good ladies were seen .bring ing baskets, boxes and trunks from the cars and vehicles and at 1:00 p. m. the audience was made to stand around the table and Photographer SPECIAL BARGAIN'S FOR AUGUST Instead of kinds of dry god business was be bought their re, -ing new goods e at the new low]i People are buyi get the new low from us they ar Do your A which are sami Ladies Sur WXe are~ showing a nice lii es madec of Figured Voiles and hot weather for house and sti could buy the cloth much les weather.

McKee "shot" the crowd with some kind ofa little instrument.with a rag thrown over it. As the writer was not a good target he got a safe distance. Of course If we had had any intention of being in the group we had much rather to be in before eating than after. After the picture was taken Mr. R. G. Gaines invoked God's blessings and everybody was told to help themselves. Right here we wish to say we never saw a nicer table set or any more of it, It never looked like hard times to see that table. When everybody had eaten there was enough left to feed fifty or seventy five more. The organ was then brought out' in the ylrd aid 5?n1e good music made, which was 1., by 31 r. llenry Riggins. It is not out of la ei' to say some thing about M11r. 1loiliday's life both in a financial and religious way. During the civil or ('onfederate WVar Mr. Holliday was the sole depend enee for his nther 111 younIger brothers and ciiers. as his fath r was stricken wi'.h nar:lyis on Sul livans Island wh: in service, was sent home al n ver was able to work any mor. mr.

The good Book says show "piety at home for that is good and acceptable before the Lord" which is an exact facsimile f Mr. Holliday's life. He informs us that he has had only one death in his family, an infant, and never has had any serious sickness. Truly t blessing. Dan cupid still furnishes the old mill grinding. On last Sunday, the 21st inst., about 5:00 p. m., Mr. Felix Howe served notice on the old miller that he had a "turn" and wanted the little mill to grind with rapidity as he had "hooked" the August being a dull off i ds, shoes, oxfords and< cause we sold merchand luirements.

The old miller realizing with the authority at hand once the "turrf' was ground and the "toll" paid there would not likely be any further pro ceedings in the case on the part of the loser, the old miller, J. Alonzo Brown, N. P., of S. C., turned on the little motor all the power it could muster and in a few minutes Mr. Howe and Miss Ona Gilstrap were leaving the little mill door made inan and wife and with a smile on their faces that denoted happiness. It gives the' officiating oflicer as much pleasure to help those who I want to leave the celibacy and try double blessednss as it does a I preacher when lie leads a sinner out of darkness into light. The groom is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Jim Howe, of Liberty, and is a promising young man, while his bride is a duaghter of Mr. and Mrs. Jay Gilstrap of Liberty, who stands well in social life. M1any congratulations. B. AROUND PETERS CREEK. Revival servites closed at Peters rek on last night. A large crowd r tt'nded e:ch service and every one 1411 1e1 to enjoy the servics so : uch. R''v.
