WM. WHELCHEL DEAD.
A Highly Respected Citizen Passes to
His Reward.
Wm. Whelchel died at his home in
the Corinth neingborhood last Fr’day
at the advanced age of eighty-three.
Mr. Whelchel was a decendant of the
Whelch, being a grandson of Dr.
John Whelchel, famous during the
revolutionary as a doctor and soldier,
being allied with the Americans.
The remains were interred at Corinth
church grave-yard Sunday, the bur
ial service being read by John
Crocker, while the funeral oration
was delivered by Wm. Jefferies, Es<].,
who paid agiowing tribute to Un-
worth and character of the deceased
Mr. Jefferies said that he did not
speak to the aged who had been so
fortunate as to live in Mr. Whelchel s
day and time and who had the good
fortune to know him so much as he
did the young whom he could with
pride ask to emulate his example.
Mr. Whelchel was a farmer but
had followed mining more or less all
his life. He was an expert minerolo-
gist and was perhaps the best posted
man on the rninerulsof this section in
Ids day and time He was a thor
oughly practical man, u successful
farmer and one who had always ad
hered to the principle of raising his
own supplies. Mr. Whelchel had
been a consistent member of Corinth
church for quite a number of years.
In speaking of him to a Ledgeu
man last Monday, A. N. Wood paid
him this tribute: “I have known
him and done business with him for
twenty years and I never knew a man
of stricter integrity and honor. We
never had the slightest difference in
business. He was the embodiment
of truth, honesty and intergity.”
Another citizen remarked: “I
have known him a long time and had
learned to love him for his true man
liness. He was a pure, good, brave,
and true man, unpretentious in his
bearing, but a man withal, who could
but leave the best impression possi
ble when once his acquaintance had
been made.”
And thus one by one the Great
Giver of all good and perfect gifts
gathers his loved ones unto Himself.

Dr. H. M. Holmes.
Dr. Henry M. Holmes, our oldest
and most widely known physician,
with his estimable and cultured
family has moved from Gaffney to
Florence.
Dr. Holmes was the first physician
to settle in Gaffney where he soon be
came prominent as a physician and
surgeon. His high personal and pro
fessional qualities secured for him
the highest regard of our people
which he retained when he left us.
His skill, kind and tender care, and
manly courtesy in the sick room has
made warm places in the hearts of
people all over this city and section
for him.
We can ill afford to lose this good
man and his family but they carry
with them our best wishes and we
congratulate Florence on getting
them.

Shumpert, Butler &_McGowan.
Gaffney is to have a new law firm.
Messrs. Schumpert, Butler & McGow
an, of Union, will open a branch in
this city February 1st. They have
rented an office of L. Baker, just be
low Squire I G. Surratt’s preset.t
office. The firm is composed of Solici
tor C. L. Shumpert, of the seventh
judicial circuit, Col. T. B. Butler,
United States Commissioner and Wm.
McGown, a bright young gentleman
who is a graduate of the Gaffney Male
and Female Seminary. Each member
of the firm is a good lawyer, and we
have no doubt but that they will re
ceive a liberal patronage. The olik-i
days are Friday and Saturday of each
week, and on those days one member
of the firm will be here to attend to
business.

The Posts’ Almanac.
We are favored this week with a
copy of the Washington Post Alma
nac and Enclyclopedia for 189G.
Is is full of historic and statistic
facts which are of interst and will be
beneficial to all who will read it. It
also contains a succinct outline of Tie
elect ro-planitary theory covering
weather changes.
The Post Almanac would be a valu
able acquisition to any library and
«un be obtained of the Washington
Post Co., Washington, D. C., by send
ing them 25 cts.

Telephone Talk.
At a meeting of the directors of
the Gaffney Telephone Exchange it
was decided to cut off all subscribers
who do not pay their assessment by
the 5th of each month. The tele
phone list is growing rapidly and
Manager DuPre is giving his patrons
good service. New and correct tele
phone cards ore to be issued in a few
days, those nowin use being out of
date.
Return Yonr Property.
The time for returning property for
taxation is growing short. It must
be returned by the first of February
to escape the penealty. City Clerk
Webster reports that very few have
yet returned their property. Now
don’t neglect this matter but go in
and return your property, thereby
saving yourself money and the clerk
the unpleasant duty of making you
pay the penalty.
