?' A PLAN SUGGESTED
Aft a Solution of the Much Mooted C
Court House Fence Question.
Editor County Record:?
Ail good citizens are ir.torvs'ed I:
.in our dear old county, in its pro- ?
gress, its pride, its beauty and a
reputation; nnd as an interested it
citizen I beg that you permit me, ti
through your valuable columns, p
^<r make a few kindly aoggestioos u
I the rauoh mooted question 1
y*iit ibe beautifying of the eouii- U
y court hoaae yard. b
. J Without taking issue directly (J
|rith either of the gentlemen who
Ifcave so thoughtfully cohered w ?
^past issues of your papef the
Question from their view-point. I a
i Would suggest, e
* First, that there be placed
fcrrmnd th?* r-nnntv rniirt house
square a handsome iron fence. f.
Second, that the grounds be j
be made as beautitul as possible r,
bv the liberal sowing of a tough, j
luxuriant lawn grass.
Third, that it be incumbent upOH
the county supervisor to keep h
these grounds, to beautify them j
,*nd to make them as comfortable
anil pleasant as possible.
Fonrth, that a portion of the
uooccupied ground belonging to
the eoontv jail lot be set apart for
;v Ike biichtng of horses, being provided
frith racks, shade trees and
other adjuncts tor public accom- h
. modal ion. t<
Filth, that the county of Wil- |'<
lialfesburg and the town of Kings- v
' tree Ibare equally the expense of b
fencing and beautifying the court ti
house yard* and that the expense r
for keeping up same be on the q
county. c
With the execution of these h
suggestions, Mr Editor, I see little F
or no room for complaint. The b
tired, weary citizen from the re- h
molest part of the county will not r,
be deprived of a single privilege, p
but will feel a pardonable pride |j
when be strolls around through d
the green, soft, velvet-like lawn- n
grass and admires one of the *
handsomest court houses to be a
i... I iL. .L.l. * * I
jwuiju in me *? noic country, aiiu (
Kingstree will be proud too. It will w
be i park for her citizens to while \
away a few moments of an idle 0
hoar; and who will be the poorer? j|
The county won't miss the money, ]]
and Kir.gstree will not feel the w
lots. But the court house yard, t<
that will be a Miring of beauty |j
and a joy forever!" a
'Now, Mr Editor, let us all get ti
together and work for the pro- o
grew, beauty and reputation of k
our county, which is symbolized T
in the "beautifying of our coun- h
ty court house yard," f(
Then will come the monument b
to commemorate the patriotism, d
? the loyalty and the bravery of our
noble and beloved Confederate o
dead. M. D. N. d

Death of Mrs. H. P. .Tallevast.
The angel of death entered the
onie of Mr H P Tallevast and
jok therefrom a loving and af?ctionate
wife and kind and deoted
mother. Mrs Tallevast had
een in failing health for some
ime, but was confined to her
oom only a few weeks. All that
ledical skill and willing hands
on Id do was done to stay the
and of deain but to no avail,
'or on Monday evening, Sepiem
er 14, Rfter the Goddess ol niglit
ad drawn her sable cuitains, the
esigned sufferer drew the draery
of her couch around her and
ly down, as it were, to pleasant
reams in the sleep that knows
0 awakening; and her gentle
pirit winged its flight from the
hanging scenes of earth acros3
he silent river ot death to be
rith the God who gave it being.
Irs Tallevast was about 59 years
f age and was born and reared
1 Darlington county, where she
ived until about fifteen years ago,
rhensheand her family noved

ved in different communities,
nd for four years made Dock
hieir home; so it was tin* pleasure
f I he writer to know her, and to
uow her was to love her.* Mrs
allevast was a member of the
laptist church at;d a devoted
)llower of her Lord; therefore,
e it said, "Blessed are they that
te in the Lord." The funeral
jrvices were eondacted from the
Id Lei in Baptist church on Sunay
atlernoon, Rev Mr Way ofli

ere laid to rest in this 'done
ity of the dead." A large conjurse
of friends was present to
ay the last tribute of respect to
le deceased.
Mrs Tallevast leaves a devoted
tisband, six boys nnd three girls,
esides a host of friends and reltives
to lament her death. We
?nder our heart-felt sympathy to
le bereaved family ^especially, the
zed husband who is deprived of

f happy married life,
"Light be the turf cl thy tomb.
May its verdure likeirnieralds be:
There should not be a shadow of

Could not stand up. I naturally felt

felt a change for the better within a

cures permanently nineteen out of H

any female weakness. If you are I
discouraged and doctors have I
failed, that is the best reason in B
