A Fish Fry and 'Cue.
A barbacue and fish fry is ail
times a fetching combination,
especially when the setting of the
feast is a woody dell with a canopy
of rustling trees. Such were the
bill of fate and the scene of an
improvised picnic last Thursday,
given by the Kingstree Club at
Gilland's spring. At eleven a. m..
the party enjoyed a short drive
over to the spring, where alter arriving
a keg ot ice-cold beer kept
tiietn amused until the fish were
cooked and the 'cue browned to a
turn as only a Sonth Carolina
darkey knows the art. When
dinner was announced ample
justice was done to the smoking
viands, everybody having an appetite
that on an ordinary occasion
would have done good service
for two. Dinner over the
afternoon was beguiled with jokes
and reminscent anecdotes and
the time sped by all too quickly
until the lariats of light engirdling
the pines showed the sun weil on
his occidental career.
The day was unanimously voted
a success in every particular.
Those present from town were:
Judge S. McB. Scott, Hon. T, M.
Gilland, R. J. Ivirk, Esq., Dr. W.
V. Rrockington, Louis Jacobs, W.
T. Wilkins. A. J, Smith, R. D.

Coogler, iho printer poet, died

Coupler was the author ol many
bits of verse which I e had pubish.'d
jn a volume entitled
"Purely Original Verses.'' The
unique qality of these productions
attracted wide attention to them,
and Coogler gained considerable
notoriety through the facetious
imnunenls of liie newspapers upon
his work. la Atlanta a "J. Gordon
Coogler Club" was formed a
few years ago to patronize the
poet.
