TELL HEIR TO AVOID ROAD DUTY.
A colored "cxhorter" wLo was
"warned OUL" to work the road near
Glenn's bridge informed the road boss
that he was exempt according to the
statute. The law was read to him and
when they got to where "regnlarly
ordained minizters of the gospel"
were exempt he exclaimed, '-That's the
point, Brother - - is the regular
miniszer, ani when le ain't here I
falls heir to his place, y.u -ce." But
they fell upon the heir and put him to
work, statu'e or no statute.

Gentlemen-If you can give me any

address of anly of the heirs of William
Ed wards, brother of Mil.-s S. Edwards
and grand-on of Robt. Edwards, it
will be greatly appreciated. Recent
developmenits in a long contested gase
in New York City have made it very
importanst to locaite the living heirs et
once. William Edwards is srqpposed
-to have settled in Sooth Carolina some
where, about 183.5 or 1840.
Thanking you for y our kind as-ist

If any one can furnish us any in

rstifEdwairds we will be glad to pub

A CHANCE To MAKE MONEY.
I have made $1,640 clear money in
87 daiys and a tended to my househo!d
duties besides, and I think this is
doing splendid for a woman inex
perenced in busine-s. Anyone c~m
sell whist every one wants to buy, and
ever; family -v ints a Dish Washer, I
don't canvass at all; peop'e come or
send for the Washers, and every
Washer that goes out sells two or
three more, as they do the work to
perfection. You can wamsh and dry
the dishes in t wo minutes. I am going
to devote my whole time to this busi
ness now, and I am sure I can clear
65,000 this y ear. My sister and
broth -r have started in the business,

TUESDAY'S ELECTION.
to
The much di-cussed elec ion of the m
20th of August has come and gone. th
The peop'e of both factions seem to ai
be tired of politics and elect ions. The hi
negroes have little or no interest in h(
them, if the appeat ances on Tuesday of
are to be c'nidered as a criterion. w
Formerly when an election was L
W
about to be held there was a club C
meeting, speech making, and couiiers
appointed the night before. Men were L
seen on the stree: s eat ly in the morn- ai
ing. But utch was not the case this la
time. One reason why no one ap- L
peared so early was that the hours for te
opening have been changed from 7 to i
C, w
8 o'clock. But up to 9 o'clock there fo
were very few people in from the til
country and very few co'ored people P1
on Il.e sti eets.
The vote cast here was only 340, and C
for a period of nearly one hour there hi
was no one on the steps but the con- hi
stables. The voting practically c'osed, d(
but renewed again about half hour M
before the closing of the poils. The H
election on the wvhole was a very quiet 1z
one. Tuere was one or two quarrels bi
but no abuse by either pat ty. The m
managers say that some who cime up, ci
and who were thought to be in favor tr
of the Leigue ticket, would pick up a at
0 to
division ,icket and vote it. Some it- a
telligent colore.1 voters who could read sh
would pick up a division ballot, read lr
it, and then deposit it in the box. T
Then the count showed that not a few
voted for two men of each ticket. One to
old colored man came up with what he E
thought was a registration ticket, but A
0 CP
on examination it proved to be a bill
of laeiin. fU>r a hog he had shipped t0 ha
his son itn Chailotte. When the mat- ali
ter was explained to him he remarked: lic
"I tole de ole 'oman to git 4 light; I A
kn>wed she could nut see so early in Et
de mot nin'. Now she gin me de in
wrong paper." Ile realiz d the mis
take when asked about the og. is
Tte e is always a joke on band if in
one is prepared to see it. A certain
gentleman told a good fricad of his m
that the would kill his (riend's) vote
with old Murry Stocklinig's vote. We
kne .v n~hing of this little mischief
between those two gentlemen until ,
afterward-s. Mwrry is a genuine negro Li
with the down-de-country accent. Hie ot
cane up smiling, his mouth looking fy
like a counztry grave-yard, his large at
teeth resemnbling a t'ow of tonmb-stotnes he
marking tli resting place o4f a large eu
family, or soldiers' burying grornnd4 S
He was asked if be had anved, or if is
e was any kin to Stockling Harris
who wears a o w's tooth in a vacancy
in his teeth. He replied, "No." Some
one asked him mischievously if he did
not have two wives, lie said, "No, t&
I 'lare to Lawd mue ain't ;" but he
looked a little frisky, and glancing tiv
hurredly at the division ballot he put is
one in. This is the way he killed the bo
friend's vote.
THE VOrE.
The vote at Winnsboro was as fol-C
lows: Division ticket-T. W. Brice,
223; G. W. Ragsdale, 223; R. A.
Meares, 219; WV. L. Rosborough, 220.
League ticket-T. W. Woodward, 191; o
T. L. Bulow, 115; J. W. Hanahan, in
:9; N. V. Bray, 116.CI
We cannot give the tabul ited vote to
in this issue, but the following vote t.E
will show the result in boxes men- fi
tioned:a
Ridgeway-Division ticket, 179;
League, 94. Division majority, 85.
Blytewood-Division, 72; League,
23. Division majority, 49.
H.-reb-Division, 89; Leagua, 53 1
Diviion majority, 361
White Oak-[Division, 70; League, 1
7. Divlsion majority, 63.
Durham's--Division, 10; Le:4gae,
87. Leagne majority, 77.
At Albion the total vote cast was 85.
Te~ division ticket got every one of
t bin. A y aung man from that sec
tioa told us that there was .500 negroes
present, but tl.ey hsd no t:ckets. They A
ad the tickets we re to have been sent
to White Oak, so he was informed, m:
but they did not get them.m
A t Gladden's Grove the vote was 84 m
for the League ticket and 90 for the be
division ticket, making a majority of
M* for the League.
At Centreville the League ticket re
ceived 53 votes and the division ticket 24
45. It was impossible to hear from w
Monticello and Feaserville-the only A
places trom which we had no report. A
If the above reports are correct the
vote, without Feasterville and Monti-*.
cello, stands 522 for the League and -
786 for division-a majority of 264.
The chances are that Mlonticello will
send at least 125 majority and Feaster
vlle 150 (thcse are conservative fig
gzres). which will make the majority
for division in the county about 540

According to promise, I give a brief
atement about the birth place of
braham Lincoln, hopivo that future
vestigation will be made.
There has been mach specu'ation
id more exaggeration as to the birth
ace of Abraham Lincoln thati any
her gieit man in iI e annils of
story. Barnes, in the history o' the
ni:ed States, .ays on p 'e 215 in a
ot note, 4-he was born in Kentucky,
bruary 12th, 1809." le also says
kbraham Lincoln's father was unable
read or write." This sounds very

From the best evidence obtained

Abraham Lincoln and lived in Hey
ood County, N. C., at the tine of
inc.ln's birth; but this part of Hey
od has since been cut off to Swain
)unty.
Abraham Enloe lived on Ocona
afta river now in Swain County and
qiired consederable property, con
sting of slaves and a large body of
