Nor did our companionship end here. He took me under his protection, car ried me among, and introduced me to his many soldier friends, the warm 'hand clasps exchanged, showing the high fovor, in which he was held, whbile in the Army. His greeting, "God bless you- fellow soldiers," was heartily given, and instead of courting the fa (vor of officers, he took position among $he poor, dependent soldiers; not only sawring kind words among them, but money; that they, too, might enjoy this glad Reunion. I ill ever hold this dear friend, in everlasttag remembrance for the kind courtesy anid - fello a feeli .g to wards myself; and wish him to kao. that I highly appreciate the saune, through the columns of your valuable paper, ge wishes maetc take in the Exposi tion, with him; which I may do, but :ot at the expense of his generous offer.

JOHN DUNCAN. 4)ne Handved and Fifty Year% Since HC .-ettled In Nbwberry Couivy. Editor of The Herald and News: In the article on Newberry contained in Robert Mills' "Statistics of South Carolina" (published 1826) we read as follows: "In the year 1752, (three years pre vious to Braddock's defeat) Mr. John Duncan, a native of Aberdeen, in Scot land, that had formerly emigrated to the province of PenL-sylvania, removed to this section of the country, and set tled on a creek in this district, now bearing his name. "Mr Duncan was at this time the highest settler in the fork between Broad and Saluda rivers, by ten miles, his nearest neighbor was Jacob Pen nington, living on Enoree river below: e was the only man at this time that had either negro, wagon, or still, in this part of the world." It will be seen that it is exactly 150 years since John Duncan settled lb what is now Newberry county. Atten ion is called to this anniversary, as it may int-'rest some of your readers.

For this reason we want to acquaint them with wbat we consider one of the very best reme dies on the market for coughs, colds, and that alarming complaint, croup. We refer to Chamberlain's ('ough Rem dy. We have used it with such good esults in our family so long that it has ecome a household necessity. By its rompt use we haven't any doubt but that it has time and again prevented roup.

I have every reason to believe that my return is agreeable to our people. We have had no "Poundings," but very many tokens of appreciation f.om our people, consis ting in flour, back-bones, spare-ribs, sau sages, lard, potatoes, can goods, honey and four flue Turkeys from different friends. Now, who would not render the best service possible to such a people? Our first Quarterly Conference was held yesterday here in the City of Newberry the rain having hindered the holding of: the meeting at the time first appointed, December 27-28, 1901. Brother Herbert tendered us the use of his beautiful Church in which to hold the meeting, it being a central point for a business ses sion and in easy reach of all the brethren. Brother Child was with us in his usual cheerful mood, and presided in his free and easy manner. The Board of Stewards eighteen in number, were all present ex cept two. We missed our true and faith ful, life-long friend and brother, Gilliam Senn, who has been a faithful steward more than twenty years at Trinity Church, he having cast in his lot with Brother Dant's flock at Summerton- Our loss is their gain. His family is missed by us all. The Stewards made the same assess ment of ministerial support as last year $700 for pastor, which amount was paid in fqll last year with a nice surplus. We reported quite a number of ad ditions since onr last Quarterly Confer ence, whose named had not been reported in our Circuit Conference Minutes. A weekly prayer-meeting is held at each church on the circuit. The Stewards re ported $62 50 for ministerial support and $51 9o for other objects. It was our pleasure to have with us during the con ference Brother 'Herbert of Central Methodist Church and Brother Edwards the new pastor of O'Nea11 Street Meth odist Church. Brother Edwards has al ready won the hearts of his people, and, multiplying friends by scores. Brother Herbert is to be our Conference host I have already spoken to him to give me a: good place to stay.-D. P. Boyd in So. Christian Advocate, r3th. Harris-Subtar. The Suber home in the Walton sec tion of this county was the scene of a happy and enjoyable occasion on Wed nesday 12th instant, where the mar riage of our popular townsman, Mr. M. M. Harris and Miss Ida Suber was solemnized in the presence of relatives and a few invited friends. The mar riage ceremony was conducted by Rev. J. J, Long in a beautiful and impressive manner, at 1 o'clock in the afternoon. Thie bride and groom arrived in New-. berry Wednesday afternoon and will make their home at the Harris resi dence in "Brooklyn," where a most de-, lightful dinner was spread of which* they and their invited friends partook much to the enjoyment of all. The Herald and News joins their many friends in extending congratula tions and wishes them a long life of happiness and pleasure.
