A very sad accident in the Lydia section on Saturday. A yonng son of Mr. J. H. Hicks, only 13 years old, was carelessly handling a load ed pistol, when it was accidentally discharged, the ball taking effect iu the forehead of little Jeff, the six- year old sou of Mr. J.

Episcopal services were held in the Methodist Oburcb on Tuesday and Wednesday nights by the Rev. John Kershaw, of Sumter, and Holy Communion was administered alter the services on Wednesday. The music was excellent; the voices were good, and the choir gave evi dences of having trained themselves for the occasion. The grand old anthems, as »bey pealed forth, im pressed every hearer. The congre gation was charmed with Mr. Ker shaw ; his clear, straight-forward manner of patting biblical truths chained the attention of all ins bearers.
