Bv virtue of a decree of foreclosure and sale of the Court of Common Pleas of Cherokee county In the case of J. C. Jefferies, plaintiff against Mrs. M. H. Jefferies, et al, defendants, I will sell at Gaffney. S. C., on Monday A Batch of Newsy Items from this Hustling Town. Clifton, Nov. 28.—A few days past have been warm and p.easant which has been an advantage to those who have to buy wood and coal in the way of saving. And it is giving the farmers a desirable time for gather ing "the remnants,” sowing wheat and oats, etc., and (in this vicinity) thov are improving the opportunity. On Sunday last. Rev. J. S. Wat bins, of Spartanburg, preached to the Presbyterian congregation of this Place, and (to all others who gave him the favor of their attention) from the text in Hebrew 4:15, the subject being. God’s sympathy with man. From which he delivered a very fine and encouraging discourse to all who strive to gain a blest abode. The new Presbyterian church will soon be finished. Pastor Stev enson wished to hold Thanksgiving services in it on the 29th inst, but it cannot be gotten ready for us by that time. The Baptists are speaking of hav ing the First Baptist church torn down and reconstructed, making it of smaller dimensions. This will be a wise step if taken, the reason why is, they will perhaps get a new and more substantial house and one that '•ill fit the sizes of their congrega tion better. A great many people that have fin shed gathering their crops are com- n ,r in to work in the mill during the inter, expecting to go back to the •ountry next spring. Well, this is quite a commendable move in these neople to he trying to have employ- mentally the while; hut here they will find men, who, to our knowl edge,. haven’t known for three years j what a day’s work of any kind is | like.
