One of the County's Best Citizens Dies at his Home li. Ora After Short Mll. ness. Mr. I. i. Fleming, one of the coun, ty's best kliown and most highly es teemed citizens died at his home in Ora Sunday morning at 12:30 o'clock. lie had been indisposed for several months, but had been confined to his bed but a week. The funei-al services were held at Old Fields cemetery Sun day afternoon, Rev. I. N. Kennedy con ducting them. There was a great out pouring of friends and relatives, both from the i mmddiate neighborhood and other parts of the county to pay re spect to the deceased. Mr. Fleming was in the 62nd year of his age and was unmarried. His prin cipal occupation in life wias farming, which he followed with much success. HI-Is honesty and integrity were unim Peachable and his reputation for fair ness 'and square dealing in the coi munity often caused him to be called in as the arbiter of differences between neighbors and friends. AMr. Fleming was particularly alert as to the inter ests of his tenants and employees and in his death none'will vustain a great er loss than they. -Ie was a consistent member of the A. R. P. church of Ora and took great interest in its welfare. He is survived by live brothets and sisters, as follows: Mliss Lula Plem ing, Mrs. P. C. Martin, A. J. Fleming, and S. H-. Fleming, of Ora, and Mrs. Mary Nabors, of Laurens. The Thornwell Orphanage. In view of the approaching Orphan Work Day, (Sept. 25th) on which day e erybody in the .State will be busy for his or her own Orphanage, I think it may be well, for the information of all concerned, to mention a fcw facts, about this Presbyterian Home for Orphans; for the Thornwell Orphan ape is owned and controlled by the ttiree Synods of South Carolina, Geor gia and Florida. The institution is not an asylu 1. nor a reformatory, but it is a Hone and School for Orphans, only. It Is now full to overflowing, with 'soic two hundred applicants waiting fpr admission. Three hundred children are now in the cottages and schools of the Home. Children with living fa thers, even the deserted, cannot be received. The children need and de serve help, but Ihe State should see that fathers (o their duty by their children. Our boys and girls are not only giv en a good literary education, but are taught some trade and are enabled to take care of themselves when they leave us. The suipport of all these fatherless an1d motherless children depends up oi the CI rist ian public. Of co'rse, the 'ypmeal for them is made principally to Presbyterians, but as children are re ceived from all denominations or with out respect to Ihe parents. aid from any and everybody is appreciated. The plan of Orphan Work Day is to interest'young and old to help us by their labors. Con tribumt ions are made by these on the Sunday following ('pt. 20- andl the gifts promptly for " 0(Je.
