A NEWSY LETTER FROM WILKINSVILLE, MOVEMENTS OF THE PEOPLE OF LOWER CHEROKEE. Personal Paragraphs Concerning Pop ular People and Short Items of that Section. Wilkinsville, Oct. 2.—We att'-mlod the mooting at 1 last. Sabbath the 30th ultimo, ami heard Kov. \Y. E. Crocker's lecture on foreign mis sions and foreign mission work in China where lie has been laboring for several years. A very large congregation w T as present and gave him a most respect ful hearing. He is a fluent and enter taining speaker and had ids subject well in hand. His description of the field, the work that has been done, is now doing and is yet to be done, gave his audience a better idea of what foreign missions really means. Tiro. Crocker still holds his member ship at Elbethel. He was sent out by the Broad river association and is supported by that body and it has good reason to be proud that it has sent an aide representative in such a noble Christian work. After some preliminary remarks j he reminded the audience that : " 1 that house (Elbethel church) he was join ed in the holy bonds of matrimony to Miss Bessie Thackston, who entered heartily into the work with him and her grave in a heathen land stands as a monument to the foreign missionary work. Miss Bessie, it will be remem bered, was the daughter of our es teemed friend Mr. S. R. Thackston, of Asbury, this county. He chose as the basis of his re marks Acts 21:19 “And where he had saluted them, he declared particularly what things God had wrought among the Gentiles by ids ministry.’' He spoke for .an hour or longer and during the time a profound silence was maintained showing that the hearers were in sympathy with thr: speaker and what he said. To attempt to give a synopsis of his discussion is more than we are able and willing to undertake in the short space at our command. We urgently request our readers to turn out and hear him whenever he lectures any where within reach of them. We un derstand that a programme will be mapped out for him and the probabi lity of it will cover this and most of the neighboring counties. Reader, you will find your time well spent if you attend and are in sympathy with the cause ho represents .We have read much about foreign missions and foreign mission work, but this don’t come up to hearing a live missionary tell it—there is to us. a great dif ference between the two. Quite a number of the Salem (Pres byterian) people were at Elbethel and they extended an invitation to B o. Crocker to come among them at his convenience and deliver his lecture at their church. His plans haven’t yet been decided upon, but when they are the public will be advised. At the conclusion of his discourse a collection for foreign missions was taken up. We don’t know exactly what it amounted to. but are satis fied it. was a creditable one for El bethel which is always willing to do its duty. Before the congregation adjourned for intermission Rev. Mr. Crocker took his stand in front of the pulpit and held a formal reception. The members of the church and others cave him a hearty handshake while the choir and congregation joined in singing, “leaning on the everlasting arms.” etc. This part of the exercises was truly an effecting scene with which everv one seemed deeplv im pressed. Mrs. John B. Foster was the organ ist and led the music in which the congregation generally took part. Dinner was on the ground and everybody invited to eat. In the afternoon Mrs. Geo (i. Byers, of Gaffney, sang a solo “Never alone” which was both touching ami impres sive. Dr. A M. Simms, of Gaffney, preach ed a forceful sermon from the first seven verses of the '>th chapter of Isaiah It is unnecessary for us to try to give even an idea of what he said. Suffie*. it to say that he convicted everv one of ids hearers when lie asked, "Brother, sister, friend; what more could God have done for you than He lias done to work out your soul’s salvation? “Tel) me something God hag neg- lecte l to do ’bat He might have done to make you a better man or woman. This, you must answer at the general judgment Its always a pleasure for us to be present with the kind people of Elbethel on such occasions. We number among them some of the best peopb- of Cherokee county, or even the State for that matter. The church has passed its one hundreth anniv< rsary and many of its members are the decendants of the families who were identified with it In its earliest history. These are the Goudelock’s. the Jefferies’, the Moore heads’s, the Wilkins’, the Kendricks’, and a host of others we might men tion. Before the war it wag one of the largest and wealthiest country congregations in upper South Caro lina and some of its members were among the most influential and honor- aide men of the State—a happy I thought is this.” WhiD in Yorkville the other day wo visiled both the Enquier and New Era ofiices and made our acquaintance with the editor of the latter.

Last Friday Mr. Estes took- a chill, and in doctering himself he took too much quinine and got in a bad fix | form its effect. Dr. L. R. Black was called to see him and he pulled him ! through and he is much better. The j chills are broken up, however. Capt. J. T. Moorehead picked 104 pounds of cotton one evening last week. Tills is good work for an old man. It’s more than many young hands can pick all day, Mr. W. G. Fowler, who has been at Hot Springs. Ark., for his health, is getting along very well, thougli he don’t gain his strength as he would like to. He is walking about where- ever he pleases but he hasn’t gained his appetite yet. Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Blackwell visit ed Mr. and Mrs. H. B. McDaniel, of Hickory Grove, last Saturday and spent the night with them. Mr. John Howell, of Hopewell, is right sick. He has fever.

The hoys went hunting one night last week and got up a fox race, but Reynard, as usual, made his escape. Capt. Joe Sims, of Sharon, says he win have to come over and catch that fox for them. I^ast Saturday was orphans day and some of our Presbyterian peonle have agreed to give their entire days earn ing to the cause. This is a commend able spirit. Mr. and Mrs. R. A.

To call the attention of people to the fact that the business men of a town are “knockers” and kick* rs and spend sleepless nights, with severe cases of dyspepsia is certainly unjust.

In this town you will find a population loyal to her course and second to none in fidelity to her in ter* sts and patriotic in their esteem; smart, fair-minded men and women, who do not have to be chastised by any medium who does not love at heart their interests.
