* e -eeeee *T. OLIVE NEWS * Mt. Olive, Dec. I l.-Dr. C. C. Brown t said in a sermon once that there are four personalities in each one of us: 1. The person the world knows. 2. The one our intimate friends know. f . The one we ourselves know. C I. The one God knows. 9 Our notion is that the person in outr make i) which the world knows is not a apt to (1o us nuch harm since he is the % one who receives most of the criti V cism and inuch of the abuse. We are not likely to be lead astray by criti- s cism. The one our friends know is a t more or loss dangerous -haracter, be calls.- he is liable som .'il OS to be in fluirnced by w rong' advie .

According to the daily newspapers an old time slavery negro, .lollie Wil iams, died in Columbia last Friday. She must have beeii over a hundred years old as it was said she remem bered iafayette's visit to Columbia in 1S25; and aided in decorating the hall in which the great Frenchman wa4 to speak. These old time darkies, like the old Confederate soldiers, are rapidly .passing away. Two years ago when we came to this place, there lived on the hill just across a deep ravine an aged colored couple, 'Jom and Charity Sullivan. In their young days oack in the fifties and sixties they were slaves. Tom could tell many lit tle incidents that occurred over on Todd's Quarter where he was reared,. for he belonged to the late Samuel Todd, of Laturens. IlEarly this year these old people moved to Waterloo where in a few weeks Tom died and in a very few months 'was followed by Charity. Very few of these old time colored servants are found among the lawless class and seldom have they tried to lead their race astray. No doubt there are a few White peoople still living today who canl remember many kind wordsl I and pleasing dleedls of "Black Mlammy," and~ how soothing were the 01ld time lullabies as she sat and1( rocked them to sleep. .\any of the children of those days, it Is said, would ir at her stayi at homtie .w ith Autil lbuida than go) visit inig w ithi their own| Iiarenits. We\. wonder~ somietimes, whet her t hest faitl oldi1 1( servan ts have received just and merilted treat ilenlt fromu t he whiten. * GRAY COI:RT' NEWS * Gray Court, -Dee, I11.--One of thie most enjoye.ble rook parties of thle winter was the one given 'by Miss Allie Habb, in honor of Miss (Hitchcock, of C(ol umbia, last Ttuesday eveinig.
