TRAGIC DROWNING AT ISLE OF PALMS A WlNNSBORO LAD LOSES HIS LIFE. William J. Jackson Who Was Drown ed the Isle of Palms Was a Cadet at the Charleston Military School. Winnsboro, May 13.—Thursday evening the sad news reached this place of the death of Cadet Wm. J. Jackson, who by a serious accident, lost his life while in bathing at the Isle of Palms. He and several others were attending a picnic and went In bathing and by venturing too far out. he came In contact with waves and could not manage to get back to the shore. Some of his school mates went to his rescue but could not be fortunate enough to save him. and he was soon drowned. Mr. Jackson was a voung man about nineteen years old, just started out in manhood. Last year he won a scholarship to the Charleston Military school which, after a short while he entered, and was said to be getting along fine with his work and was pleased with the place. He was the son of Mrs. M. A. Jackson, of this place. He was liked by his friends and acquaintences very much. His friends and relatives were pleased to know that in a short time he would return home to spend the summer months. Mrs. Jackson and her youngest son and little daughter went to Columbia last Monday morning to attend the reunion and on a visit to her daugh ter’s. Mrs. Walter Tenant, tfhe leav ing only one little fellow at home, and when the telegram was received the news soon spread over town. It toeinfc night though the phone lines • were used carrynig the news to dif ferent parts of the county. His death was certainly a shock to the people of this town and surrouding com munity. Being some time Thursday night before the body was recovered and In som*» wav not making connection, they did not arrive here with his body until today at 4 o’clocb. and at 5 o’clock the funeral took place at the Methodist church, conducted by Rev. J. M. Hoi yd ay. assisted by Revs. Henry Stokes and J. L. Freeman. Mr. Jackson was a member of the Presbyterian church and was a young man that anyone could look at the grave of and tell what his friends thought of him. The flowers were plentiful and beautifully arranged. His father and one brother have •frone before him, he leaving to mourn their loss a mother, six brothers and two sisters. Five cadents came with the corpse to Winnsboro. two of them being the two young men that tried to save him from drowning. Interment took place in the Methodist cemetery. Mr. Wm. Wylie, an aged gentle man about flfty-flve years old. who had been sick for the last three or four years, died at the home of his brother. Mr. H. G. Wylie, last Friday evening. The deceased hasn’t any family, as he had lived these many long years single. Funeral took pace at 3 o’clock in the Presbyterian church last Saturday evening. Rev. J. M. Holly day conducting the funeral. Summer has opened up again this year with plenty of rain. We hear a good many farmers speaking of how the grass is making such an ad vance already. It being some time since vour cor respondent has been in the country he is unable at present to give any dots as how farmers are getting along with their work. A good many of Wlnnsboro’s peo ple attended the reunion at Columbia last week. They reported a good crowd and a nice time. Mr. D. A. Crawford has alipost fin ished his stables back in the same place where his other one was burn ed some time ago. Mr. John Hardin. Jr., who for some time has been employed by Coker & Co., of Hartsville. returned to his fiome a few davs ago feeling a little iwell and in a short while was con- led to his bed with typhoid fever, is at this writing a little better. k are glad to say.

Mrs. Mills Retracts a Published Statement To the Public: This may seem a tardy correction, but since application for ball for Mr. Mills in Spartanburg May 4th. I’ve been waiting for it “all” to be pub lished before making any correction and the Blacksburg Chronicle evident ly got it “all” from statements made in their issue of May 10th. Someone surely has magic in ma nipulating signatures or reporters suffer a lapse of memory between writing and translating their “short hand.’* Alternation, addition and retract ion, sem to be the vogue, so I shall adopt retraction. Shall enter into no lengthy expla nation—the time for that will-come— but deem a few words necessary. The latter part of February past. Mr. Mills and I disagreed over a trifle, becoming quite angry. Hot words ensued and he remarked, “I could not spend his money and talk to him so.” I replied “I was ready to go.” A few days later I went to friends in Atlanta, intending to work there. About a week later he followed me bearing the nows of Frank Deal’s and mv intimacy. This was the first time Deal's name was ever mention ed between us. he not knowing Deal whom I had met some years before b^ing married. After some discussion and his nromisn to never again mention the .circumstance. I agreed to return with him, going to Trough where he was working instead of stopping with his mother, near Clifton, where I had been boarding previously. "Wle were there some six weeks when our little girl was taken ill and I brought her to my mother’s at Grover. During these six weeks, instead of being able to drop this trouble. Mr. Mills became more and more agitated over it. at times becoming delirious, trying to show me. on the wall, per sons who had told him these things and laughed him to scorn, while I was in Atlanta. Again he would threaten to put us both out of the way. and demanded mtv admission of these accusations. Finally, under fear of some fatal harm either to himself or me. and thinking to recon cile and allay the feverish nassions that took possesion of him. I told him he could believe some parts of it He then wrote to the shops In Massachusetts annlying for a position there, where we were intending go ing soon. These were the conditions when I came to Grover soon to hear of the murder. Through advice of friends, my sympathy naturally being with Mr. Mills. I signed a statement to be used In applying for ball. Dr. Jekyll never underwent more changes than has this statement in being used and published, so never having held up my right hand nor said “I’ll swear” anything. I hereby retract it all and let it remain to be seen what I shall swear, if sworn I must be. Lola A. Mills. Grover. N. C., May 14, 1907. RAVENNA READING.

Which Way? (Harper’s Weekly.) The story is told of a major who was in command of troops who were in pursuit of some outlaws. In the chase he arrived at a village to dis cover that he was too late to inter cept them, and finally ordered the horses unsaddled and fed. Now the major’s hostler was a son of Ireland, ignorant of everything pertaining'to the equestrian art. and. coming in from the village in a state bordering on intoxication, he put the major’s saddle on the horse facing to the rear. When the horses were brought up for a fresh start the ma jor. Instantly discovered the mistake, demanded the reason for it. "An’ shure,” said Pat. a little ter rified—"an’ shure. major, an’ I didn’t know which way you was going!” An explosion followed—the major was satisfied—and Pat escaped pun ishment Newsy Notes and Personals of a Thriving Community.

Wilkinsville, May 14.—After a week’s sojourn In the city of Colum bia your correspondent is again at home in Cherokee county, ready to tell what he saw and heard. But that is Impracticable. Neither time nor space will allow this. During the reunion a call for the survivors of the 7th S. C. cavalry was issued to meet at the Confederate monument in front of the State house at 5:30 o'clock p. m. on Wednesday. But at that hour a heavy rain was falling and but few being present, the meet ing was adjourned until 3 o’clock p. m. on Thursday when all the survivors of Gary’s brigade were requested to meet In the theatre building. Quite a number was Present and among them Col. A. C. Haskell, commander of the 7th cavalry. Old times were talked over and many long separated friends met and renewed their ac quaintance. Father Time has told a wonderful tale In the last forty-five years. Many, yes, very many, of their comrades have passed over the river that divides time and eternity.

During our visit to Columbia we met Mr. Harvey Thackston. who for many years, was on The Ledger ? e T> ls now wlth the printing house of Bryan & Co. in that city. He was glad to see us and we to see him. Also, we stumbled into a bar ber shop and took a shave. The knight of the razor knew us as soon a« we entered his shop but we could not remember him as he Is among the young men who have grown out of our knowledge, and we had for gotten him. He refused to tell us his name but told us to ask Ed. De- Oamp who he was. and he could tell. We got the shave, however, and its up to you, Mr. DeCamp, to sav who did the work.

Our friend and comrade Jack Mul- linax, who attended the reunion at Columbia last week was disgusted to see some of the old soldiers get “tight.” He said he went there to be a gentleman. He thinks a man who can t behave himself in good com pany ought to stay out of it and we are much of his opinion, too. How ever. we are olad to say we didn’t see any of “our boys” or acqualptences in that fix. They kept as straight as a shingle, so far as we could see. At the dinner table on the last dav of the reunion several members of Camn Jefferies sat together. When we finished eating one of the fair ladies who waited on ns began to apologize by saving that her pitcher of lemonade was out but If we would only wait a moment she would refill It and serve us.
