A sad accident occurred a few miles
below here, nc:: - Little Mountain, Sat
urday morning, 20th instant. Davo
Cannon and Bartow Wheeler, two boys
of about fifteen years of age, were out f
rabbit hunting. Ha iug ''jumniped" a
rabbit, Cannon began running, stump
ed his foot and fell. As he did so his
gun went off and the entirc load enter
ed the back of Bartow's head, killing c
him almost instantly.
The deceased young lad was the son
of Mr. and Mrs. Nathan Wheeler, who 8
are well and favorably known to almost c
every one in this section.
The accident was such a shock to r
Mrs. Wheeler that physical aid was 11
necessary, and Dr. Wheoler, of the t
firm of Hunter & Wheeler, Prosperity, a
was hastily summoned. iIe reports
Mrs. Wheeler as doing nicely at this d
writing. f<
Maj. W. R. Elmore, of the upper
part of the county, has been spending b
several days h ;ro with his two daugh- a
ters, Mrs. John J. Mayer and Mrs. E. tt
B. Kibler. The Major has many warm t
friends here, and all of them are glad
to see his happy face again. a
The Prosperity Graded School now a
has an enrollment of 133 pupils. Every- 01
body is delighted with the progress be
ing made by Prof. Sherod and his comi- y'
petent assistants, 'vnd the public pulse I'
beats for a large, substantial and com- h
modious up-to-date school building. 0
We hope to have It cro many summers'
suns.
Some one not friendly to the "qu::li
ty" of the canine and feline species put 0
out the old-time "rat-separate" a few ie
nights ago, and as a result about a a<
dozen dogs and probably as many eats a
"hit the grit." Some good dogs fell in
the slaughter, as the Poll Parot did b
among the crows. Moral: If you have
a good dog, keel) him at home.
Dr. Corbett's spirited horse ran away
with him a few days ago, and he was I.
thrown from his buggy and sustained S
painfully severe, though not serious, J
injuries. Tne Doctor has ful' recov- r
ered, and is out and about again as
usual.
Rev. A. G. Kirkpati ick, pastor of our
A. R. P. Church, whose health has
been quite poor for months past, is cer
tninly improving, and hopes a"o enter- t
tained by his family and friends that of
A
his improvement will continue until he
Is restored to his former vigor and use- al
fulness. a
Mr. J. I. Wheeler of our town has
leased the Winnsboro Hotel at Fair- P
Cield's county-seat, and will run It this
year. Mr. Wheeler and his interesting
rairily will leave ,his week for Winus- s
boro. Good luck to Hotel Wheeler at S
Winnsb '. May its guests never go t
hungry o.- "dry," and its bank account
increase as the days pass by. B
The numerous petty burglaries and b<
robberies in Prosperity are indicative
>f the oft-repeated suggestion that we
aeed a nigh' watchman, and one who
will keel) awake and do his duty. Let
is have a good one, and remember that
'the laborer is wort,hy of his hIre." q
Pastor lian ton of the Baptist church
was toe sick last Ur."bath to fill his pul
pit. He is much in proved now and a
will soon, it Is hoped, be quite well
'gain.
Rev. A. H. GriffitIr, of the Theologi- ai
aal Seminary at Due WVest, filled the
pulpit of the A. RI. P. Church here yes-r
herday a. mn. and p. in., preaching a
highly edifying sermon on each occa
sion. '
Pa3tor Ariall filled his regular aip
poln,meitf at the Methodist Church ai
bere yesterdlay afternoon. The sor- b(
vices were well attended and interest- fo
ong in the extreme.
The pulpit of Grace Lutheran Church
was filled yesterday a. mn. by Rev. Mr.
B3edenbaugh, who Is serving the con
ntegation until the arrival of their new
pastor. Yesterday's services wore
sleasing and elevating.
One of the happiest occurrences in
this section of r'ecent date was the mar
riage of Mr. Alotte E.- Dawkins and
naiss Lily Nichols, daughter of Mr.
sampson Nichols, which took place at
3t. Luke's parsonage Sunday, January
