' THIS MULE NO DOUBT
HELD RECORD FOR
LONGEVITY.
Mounlville, July 5.?"Sally Culbert
BO'n" of EkoiM is dead. She. passed
away Saturday, June 2G, 1000. at the
age of 3S year?, She was not a ua
five of Laurens county but came here
from Tennessee In is.t. when only
years of age. That she left her home
1 id people of her own volition is
'I h" doubtful. It is believed that
she v as either persuaded to leave her
s ate and kindred, or simply brought
here by some ?nie without being con
sulted as to her own wishes in the
'?alter. Such is the barbarity of
mankind. Hut she came and good
fortune or kindly fate or some other
friendly Influence carried her to Mr.
v. J. Culbertson's, which place be
came her adopted home. Under the
1 tutorship of Prof. W. V. Wathins Sally
received Ihm- first lessons in manual
training and such other instructions
as would tit her for her life vocation.
This was another favor of good for
tune, for under the wise teaching of
Mr. Watkins she learned lessons ami'
imbibed principles which served her
well in after life. With this training,
founded upon a naturally instinctive
disposition for the best in life, n char
acter was formed which was distin
guished lor honesty, truthfulness, al
truism, and faithfulness to every ob
ligation and trust. If Sally ever went
i io tar. or remained too long in the
wrong direction, it was not because
si ? meant evil. Inn such conduct must
tittrlhuted t<> the f.-nt Hint her do
si ?? lor pleasure, frei doni and recre
ation would sometimes get control of
heiter judgment. It was a lilting
' ken of affectionate esteem for her
i ".amendable life that her friends, on
R M day alter her death, placed In r ro
i tains in a specially selected burying
ground as their final resting place.
Whatever else may be said of the
subject of this little sketch it must
I " -aid that, during her long life of
i s< fulness, "Sal" was a faithful old
mule.

More or less all people of Laurens
County and the surrounding country
know (they certainly know of) "Un
cle Young'" Culbertson of Bkom, as
be is familiarly and affectionately
called, and they were pretty generally
"acquainted" with his old mule Sal.
Tie two have been familiar figures
in 1'koin for many years and have
occupied space in the county press

in the rvili yeiir of her age. Sal was
