A PLEA FOR AN 7rUN'ORT UNATE.
Messrs. Editor's: In a short comin.
before the last, an allusion was madi
to the fact that some kind friends had
employed and were paying a laborci
to perform the work on the farm of
sick and crippled Confederate soldier
At the time I only intended to state i
fact without any thought of appealina
for or reciving any help for my un.
fortunate friend. The return mal)
brought me a letter from Prof. R
Means Davis, of the South Caroline
College, containing a timely and val
uablo contribution, two dollars ster
ling, "I would like to contribute r
mite towards hiring a hand to heli
that sick old Confederate soldier."
My friend has had many mnisfortunes.
Earl in the year he lost his only worli
animal. A never-failing friend pro
vided him with another, and since my
communication this one also has died
This misfortune is a fresh and strona
appeal to my own sympathy, and]
desire now to be of use to my frIend
in procuring another. I don't thini
that I have ever known a man whc
attempted to support a family by field
labor ;under such disadvantages. H<
walks on a heavy wooden log. I havc
seen him ploughing on steep, rugged
hillsides, and on cioddy, rough creel
bottoms. Few, indeed, are the met
who would swing around rocks
stumps and clods a wooden log, noi
simply from day to day, but frow
year to year. Most men would takt
some nigh cut-make their wives d(
it or run fr office, He knows noth.
ing of my disposition to get him help,
as I have not seen him to consult him,
tHis assistance from his 'family is noi
much in the way of work-has thro<
small children to raise-is in ever
way worthy of help.
I sinerely trust that this public use
of a private.communication will not
be off'ensive to Prof. Davis, as 1 only
wish to hold up his kind act as at
example to stimulate others to heIr
an nnfcrtunate man.
Permit me to say further that I anm
encouraged to this because I sincerely
think that misfortunes have been uin,
equally distributed. In tils imme.
diate section a few years ago there
passed over a cyclone which swepi
away everything, siuce then, along iti
track, the people have suffered greatly
from sickness and death. As they
plant mostly on rivers, etc., they losi
their corn crop last year, and they are
now under a heavy strain.
1 -hope, Messrs. Editors, that yon
will receiye and forward mec any hell)
that kind hearts may be inclined te
g fve. Isalbe acknowledged. A
itefrmmany would so much glad.
den the heart of a brave, true man,
whose life has been made at least a
burden, by a patriotic endeavor tc
defend his country. J. D). MAIKON.
