TUFMDAY, APRtIL 17, a s. s 1888.
Wm. X. Leitner.
The many trienils of Col. Wim. Z.
Leitner in Fairfield will be pained to
learn of his death. The following
telegram was received on Sunday:
CoLUMBIA, S. C., April 15, 1888.
To TuE NEWS AND HERALD: Secre
tary Leitner died suddenly this morn
ing. Ile had been in good health, but 1
complained somewhat last night of a
pain in his arm. This morning he was i
reclining on a couch before dressing 1
for church. Ills wife had stopped into
another room, and when she returned
found him prostrate-dead. IIeart
disease was the cause. Ills death wase
unexpected. IIe had been pronounced
sount and Insured recently. U. M. D.
Col. Leitner was about fifty-nine
years of age. lie was born and reared
about four miles from Winnsboro. at
the place now owned by Mrs. N. K.
Rabb, and was educated chiefly at the I
Baptist Institution near- her home.
After graduating in the South Carolina
College ip the class of '49 with Judge
C. II. Simonton, Col. D. Wyatt Aiken
and Gen. Jas. Connor and many other
men of mark, he studied law and
practiced several years in Winnsboro.
Hle was Lieutenant-Colonel of the
Twenty-ilfth Regiment, South Caro- t
lina Militia, of which Hugh Miller
was Colonel and Jas. II. Rion was
Major.
Col. Leltner married Miss Dunlap,
of Camden, and moved to that place 1
about 1858, and lived and practiced his
profession there until his election as t
Secretary of State in 1886. 1
IIe served gallantly in the Conled
erate army as t;aptain of a Kershaw I
company, and lost a leg in the Mary
land campaign, and wouldlhave been
left in the enemy's hands but for his
fortitude in submitting to i drive in an
ambulance of about forty miles a few
days after the amputation of his leg.
There was no more warm-hearted
or generous man than Col. Zach. Leit
ner, at his friends called him. Ills
love for old Fairfield and the friends
of his youth always burned brightly
and he lost no occasion of manifesting (
his friendship to his old friends or to
their children. Many of us were but
yesterday anticipating the pleasure of
having h1i1h with us on a festive occa- I
sion, which is to come off next week,
but nov we shall sadly miss his lo
quent words and the kindly grasp of
his hand. (
Throughout his lifec Col. Leitner t
wvas a devout Christian and a faithful e
member of the Methodist church. n
What Itailroads Will 1)o,
It seemns to us almost unnecessary C
to at present give to the people of -
*Winnsboro and the county any argu
lment to show the p)aramounlt necessity '
of having more railroad facilities.
This11 is patent to every cit izen of the -
county. A ne0w railroad will inerease }
the population and infuse a more en- 0
terprising life in the people.
One objection urged against a new
railroad is that that railroads will ini
crease the number of trading poinits
and thereby decrease the trade of
Winnsboro.
In answer to this, and in the ab
801nc0 o: any statistics, we ;would re
for to towns in other parts of the
State, which would be pleased to have
half a dozen roads running into their
limits, and which are making strenu
ous efrorts to obtain others.
We think these things sufficiently i
showv that railroads never decrease the
prosperity of any town, but onm the C
contrary always add to it. Spartan
burg, while it already has three roads,
wants another. Greenville, with sev- ~
eral roads centreing there, wants an
other. Laurenms wants more. Through
out the State we find the same cry for (
more railroads.
Winneboro can't remain behinld.
She must take a front position if she.
wishes to prosper. Them Wadesboro,
Winnsboro & Canmak Railroad is in
contemptation. Let Winnsboro and
Fairfld be upl and doinig and make it 4
a success.
IJLYTI IVaooD Dora.
Since our last r'eport we have been
visited by floods of rain and tile farm
ing interests have suffered consldera- I
bly .thereby, but theo weather is no0W
fair and lovely, and the farmers have
gone to work M'ithm a vim to regain the
loss time. We hope their labors will
be crowned with abundant success,
and that they may have a flithful
year of peace and plenty.
The fruit crop in this section will
be very near a failure, tihe greatest por
tion of it was killed early ini the sea
son,* and the small quantity that re
mains will probably fall off' obe very
dlefective should it remain upon thme
trees until it matures..
There will be services at the new
church on Sunday, the 22d inst.
