During the past few mooihs there
has been a great deal of sickness of
one kind and another in Gaffney,
largely induced by the recent un
seasonable weather.
In speaking of this to a member of
the Cherokee Drug Co., the o.her
day, he said: “Ves, there has been,
and is, a lot of sickness in the city,
and while most people get over the
acute stage rather quickly, it leaves
the blood impoverished, and it is hard
to regain lost vitality. The patient’s
strength is depleted, the system j
generally demoralized and relapses
are continually feared.
| The one thing to aid recovery is to
! give the patient a blood building and
Strength restoring tonic, one that
will give strength to every organ in
the body.
“Now, truthfully,” continued he,
“1 don’t believe there is another re
medy in the country equal to our de- |
licious cod liver oil preparation, j

and building up strength. I say this :

“Vinol contains every one of the

There was a habeas corpus case in
Raleigh Monday evening before Su

at the time of the raid anl the three
negroes in charge made their escape
by diving into the darkness and tak

A negro r aiir d Julius Houston, of
Asheville, while washing the plate-
glass windows of an office building on
' Church street in that city, slinped off
the table on which he was standing
and fell through the glass, severing
an artery in the thigh. Med ; cal aid
was quickly called, and the f man’s

to the Mission Hospital in a very
weak condition. It is not believed
that the wound will prove fatal.
The oldest pensioner in Mecklen
burg county of the Confederate vet
erans fund, and perhaps in the State,
is Henry Fermenter, of Charlotte.
Mr. Fermenter is 96 years of age and
is hale and hearty. His wife, who is
still living, is now over 100 years old
and is likewise enjoying good health.
Mr Fermenter after receiving his
check for $45 Wednesday gave Clerk
Russell a pressing invitation to come
out and pay him an extended visit.
The funeral services were conducted
in the First Baptist church by Rev.
\. C. Cree, after which his brethren
of the Woodmen of the World took
charge of the remains and buried
them according to the rites of their
order.
The pallbearers were W. H. Ross,
C. T. Clary, J. R. Reason, Thomas
Alexander, C. J. Wall and G. W.
Speer.

suffering great pain. A physician
was called, who, upon investigation,
