Napoleon’s Famous Marshal Said to
Have Taught School In North Ca
rolina—Novel Case of Surgery.
WiUdnsville. Jan. 26—The man
who has ever tasted the bread of life
will perish *co death if fed on Christ-
less sermons.
One vow will not suffice -the long
year through.
One prayer a twelve-months needs
allay;
Crown every morn with pure resolve
anew,
And live each as It were a New
Tear’s day.
Messrs. W. C. and Asa Blackwell
went to Gaffney last Thursday on
business.
Mr. Gregg Susong, of Star Farm,
has sold a lot of fine mules lately to
the farmers of lower Cherokee.
Gregg Is a hustler, anyway. In selling,
buying and swapping.
We understand that $1,800 worth
of mules have changed hands among
the farmers in the vicinity of Sunny-
side Farm within the last few days.
MY. and Mrs. J. N. Strain had a
right sick child—Louise—last week.
It is better now, we are glad to say.
Mr. Louis McCulloch and Miss Ket
tle Bailey were married by Rev. T.
B. Owens at his residence last Wed
nesday.
Mr. and MYs. S. F. Estes spent the
day with their daughter, Mrs. Mattie
Blackwell, last Friday.
In The Times-Democrat (Charlotte,
N. C.,) of January 18th, we see an ac
count of the finding of some old pa
pers—files of the Mecklenburg Jef
fersonian of 1841—which contain
some very interesting reading among
which is an advertisement of the
English and Classical School at Ca
tawba Springs, of P. S. Ney, who was
believed by his pupils to be what he
claimed—Napoleon’s Marshal Ney.
Among the several branches he taught
was that of stenography In which, or
by which, he had written the life-
story of himself.
That be was the identical Marshal
Ney—Napoleon’s right-hand man—
there Is good reason to believe, but
how he made his escape from the
death sentence is and perhaps al
ways will be, a mystery.
Marshal Michel Ney was a French
man-born at Sarrelouls in 1769, and
at the time spoken of would have
been seventy-two years of age.
Mrs. Mildred McDaniel, of Hickory
Grove, with two ot her children, Es
telle and Elbert, were over on a visit
last Saturday and will spend a few
days on this side of the river. They
return home today.
Mr. and Mrs. Lowery Webber at
tended the Sabbath school exercises
at Salem last Sabbath.
Some time ago our old friend, W.
H. White, of Hickory Grove, got a
fish bone in his throat which gave
him a great deal of annoyance as
well as discomfort. He went to sev
eral doctors but they could do noth
ing to relieve him. He finally adopt
ed a plan to get rid of the pestiferous
bone which worked like a charm
and he is now a well man. He got
a piece of fat meat—about what he
could swallow at one time, tied a
string to It and swallowed it. As it
went down his throat it lodged on the
fish bone and began to choke him.
He had the presence of mind to give
the string a jerk when out came the
piece of meat with the fish bone
sticking to it. We understand that
be had employed a fellow to give
him assistance but when Bill began
to choke the fellow thought he was
going to die and he left him to take
care of himself the best he xiould.
Should any of our readers have a
similar trouble we recommend Bill
White’s remedy.
Messrs. T. J. and Terry Estes
went to Gaffney last Saturday and
each bought a new wagon from the
Wilkins-Watson Hardware Company.
* The trappers are still at work
near the mouth of Thickety creek.
They have caught a good many minks
and musk rats and have made one
shipment of hides since they left
Thickety Station some days ago.
Gentlemen, Just keep on catching
these “varmints.” You are welcome
to all of them so far as we are con-
derned.
Mr. James G. Garner is speaking
of putting up a wheat mill at the
Thomson mills. We hope our farm
ers will turn their attention to rais
ing wheat more than they have done
for several years. That sown early
and put in in good condition looks
well. The only trouble is too little of
it is sown. The want of mills to
grind it has no doubt in a great meas
ure been responsible for farmers
quitting raising wheat.
Mr. and Mrs. Boyce Whisnant, of
of Wllklnsville, and children, return
ed from a visit to relatives at Hick
ory Grove yesterday.
Mr. J. N. Strain has been working
at the carpenter business for several
days.
Mr. John Hughes (Jeff’s John) has
shaved off clean and the girls say it
helps his looks considerably. We
don’t know what Mrs. Mollie thinks
of it. John is sorry he didn’t shave
long ago.
Lizzie Tate, colored, fell through a
hole in the floor yesterday and got
pretty badly hurt. Dr. Fiefleld came
to see her and treated the wound
which is right painful.
Mr. H. B. McDaniel, of Hickory
Grove, visited the lower section of
our county yesterday on business.
He crossed Broad river at Smith’s
ford and the water ran over the seat
of his buggy. The ford has washed
out.
People are fixing to sow oats.
Miss Bonnie McCluney has a good
school. So has Rev. MY. Boozer. He
has fifty scholars.
Rev. T. B. Owens has never got
any trace of his horse which was
stolen Christmas week, ’that we know
of.
MY. T. A. Goforth was in Columbia
last week attending the farmers
meeting.
We are glad to see Annie Laurie
again. She writes a splendid letter.
The same we can say of our other
correspondents. * They make The
Ledger a symposium of county news,
and we hope they will continue to
do so.
Mr. J. G. Garner will finish up gin
ning today.
Camp Jefferies TJ. C. veterans will

Receiver Appointed for J. C. Robin
son Jewelry Concern.
Chester, Jan. 26.—It will be learn
ed with regret that pecuniary em
barrassment, brought by the general
stringency of the times, has com
pelled Mr. J. C. Robinson, the well
known Jeweller, to close his doors.
One of Mr. Robinson’s creditors, a
New York concern, appeared before
Judge Gage Saturday evening and
asked for a receivership, which was
granted, Mr. R. b. Caldwell being
appointed receiver.
It is believed thait Mr. Robinson's
stock and other assets will be amply
sufficient to take care of all Indebt
edness, and it is to be hoped that
this will prove to be the case, for
the Robinson jewelry store has been
a big advertisement for this city all
ovr this section, and In addition Mr.
Robinson is a popular business man
with hosts of rlends, who hope that
his financial embarrassment will
prove to be only temporary.
