Mrs. W. R. liuie and children, of1

with Mrs. Ruie's sifter, Mis. II. G. j

to Seranton to visit Mrs. W. S.

I)r. A. II. Williams went over to
Mario last week on business with
the Marion iron works. He was in J
search of the iron work for the truss
roof of the ne'.v warehouse.
The Lake City Higti ysenooi cioseu |
last Friday. It seems to be difficult'
.to carry on a school after the i erry ;
season opens. The picking: is done j
by children, and a grout many ol;
the children want a hand in it.
The tirst shipment of strawberries
was made last Saturday, the
liOth. They came from .Mr. S. J. I
Singletary's farm and were shipped
to Washington, 1). C. Last year the
first shimpeut was on the 1Sti 1, two
days earlier.
Messrs. Sauls<fc Graham are turning
out berry cups aud vrates right
along now. They are working a
number of hands In their factory j
and are ready to meet the demands
of berry grower* hi this section.
They have one expert cup maker
who is said to he able to make
twelve hundred cups u day. This
seems to us very fast work.
We are called upon to perform a
duty peculiarly sad, that of announ-;
ciug the end of a life full of prom-:
i?tes <if more than ordinary success
and usefulness that has been cut
short in its opening career. Yet
there is much gratification in that!
this life though brief was well round- j
ed and differed from an existence!
of three score years and ten only in ,
-quantity but not in quality. J)r.'
.lames Clyde Fulmore 'departed!
this life on April loth, 1901, at his1
home in Lake City, lie was ill
a'out three weeks and suffered:
jnucl. It was only at intervals that j
he was conscious. All that medical
/-kill and science could do for him ,
was done* Drs wiibani-, H ockin-i
ton.DuruutjIliHiiunt.IMerceanU Ead '
dv strove to drive htck the de
Mrover but the li.it h i t gone forth j
that lu* in 11 -1 die, an t this ti it coul 1.
not be staved. From tiu? first h*i
se**med to realize that the sands!
were running out, and made no ef-!
fort t<? deceive himself as to h s real
oudition Twenty-four hours before
the watcher beard the last rat- j
tie his spirit had entened th- great
unseen. lie saw llowers that were!
not In his room, heard music that'
gave no sound to those aroun i and i
talked with friends and comrades j
who went into the other room months
and years ago. A few moments
before the end c:? e he asked i
for his little girl, his only child.!
When brought he rested nis hand j
upon her baby beau in silence, per-!
haps giving to her his paring bless- j
ing and making for iier nis last
prayer. Then his mind wandered!
it gain and lie drifted away, and
"the title being out be went out with j
the tide."
He was a son of Dr. Z. If. Fillmore,
* t. I .. . .1 I i ^<-.1 1 I ,? i
ailU WHS oorn rtugiiM -t, j(5i? uc
graduated from the South Carolina
5lKlie.il College in the spring of
189t> and immediately entered upon
the practice of medicine and pursued
it dilligontly and successfully
until three weeks ago. Soon after
beginning his life work he married
Miss Mattie Sutcliffb, of Charleston,
daughter of Mr. and .Mrs. A. X. Sutclitfe
and grand-daughter of the
lamented Itev. John L. K'dlins.
Jli.s wife and baby girl survive.
During the six years that hoi
practiced medicine he gained a
r^Miiv unviable rcnutatiou as a
physician and had built up a very
jarge practice. Young as lie was
his skill was recognized as second
to none. His eye was keen to detect
pain; his touch cunning to find
disease's hiding place; his potions
mighty to reveal suffering. Jlis
energy was bounded only by human
endurance. With a heart full of
kindness and one in which malice
could not live, he never turned a
deaf ear to a cry of pain, and never,
gave up the conflict with disease so
long as one spark of life remained.
He questioned not whether the one;
in need of his care held a heavy
purse or pinched to buy a measure
of meal. Oftimes the only rest he
had was a few moments of sleep
snatched in his buggy with the cold
rain blowing in his face, lie would |
lie upon his bed until the chill that
seized him passed off,and then with j
his blood burning with fi ver lie
would drug himself out into the j
night to some one who had called
to him out of the darkness for a
draught to sooth an agony. "Am J '
needed? Then I go." This was bis
Pfe in six words. And he went and '
gave his young life for others. We
U-beve it h no exaggeration to say ;
that his death was due in large
measure to over work. Into six '
years he crowded as much tanor ana
exposure as many put into a lift*
spun out to the allotted lime. Af- i
tor all life is not mcasur d l?y years
but by deed*.
On Tuesday, as the sun rode in
splendor ou the zenith, his body wa?
laid to rest in its narrow house in |
the church yard of the Laptist;
church, of which lie was a member.
1 lis father ami mother sleeps only j
a few feet away. The esteem in
which he was held in this community
was shown to some extent by
the assemblage that met to pay I
their hist tribute to him, and by the
intensity of tin- feeling that was so
evident in that congregation. In j
numbers it mounted into the several
hundreds. It was probably the
largest crowd that ever gathered J
around a grave in Lake Citv. The j
high and the low: the proud and j ,
the humble; friends and strangers;!
the pile faced Saxon and the!
swarthy negro?all bowed in grief;
before the body of this young man j
of twenty eight. A common sor-l
row swept that throng as a wind j
sweeps a field of grain, and the sobs !,
of a sad, sad farewell rose and fell i
like the plrintivc voice of the eh- h
hing tide. It seemed as if one great j
family wore bidding good bye to j
their dearest brother. The simple , I
but impressive services were conducted
by tl.e pastor, ltev. T. J. j
liooko.
What we say of Dr. Fulmore is
said in all sincerity, and not in idle i
praise. We speak of man n* he was |
recognized by us, and we believe,
we give ^ oice to tlie feelings of this I
entire community when we quote!
the words of a tender hearted ladv j
who. bending over his eotHin said;
"Poor fellow, we will all miss you."
Yes, no man in this section will tie
mi-sod more than Clyde Fulmore.

never scant; go in to cottages where
economy was needed to keep away

penury froze the genial current ofl
the soul; and ask who and what'1
Clyde Fulmore was. An untiring i
devotion to duty, an unswerving |
fixity of purpose in Ids profession,
a heart faithful and just, a kindness 1
that went out to all, a charity that
man a brother?if these things count
and we are sure they do, his young
life was not a failure, far from it. \
