T 1A O 1 iuEO, January iv:?un ouuuay morning at 5 o'clock Mrs Janet G Brown, widow of the late R "W Brown, died at the advanced age of 74 years. She had been in declining health for about twelve months and the immediate cause of her death was heart failure. In her death we lose one of our best friends. Mrs Brown had been a mem\ ber of Prospect church for fifty years or longer, and was a consistent Christian, carrying sunshine wherever she went. She leaves three children, viz: Anson A Brown, Mrs J Davis Car. ter and Mrs John T Eaddy; also two brothers, Lawrence W and J Warren Graham, and two sis ters, Mrs D Lawrence Brown and Mrs Wilson Burrows, besides a host of other relatives ajid friends in this and adjoining counties. The funeral services were conducted by Rev J BTreywick of Lake City, and took place at the family burying ground, on Monday, at 12 m. "Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep: Where none ever wakes to weep.

Citoe Near Being SeriousTuesday afternoon about dark Robert Kirk, the eleven year-old son of R J Kirk, Esq., while walking up Academy street towards his home, met with a mishap which came near resulting seriously. Attempting to catch a passing vehicle the little fellow in some way was knocked down and it is tnougnt mat a roan riding on horse-back behind ran over him. He was severely cnt about the head and although with some assistance managed to walk home about a quarter of a mile, soon after his arrival he became unconscious and for a while grave fears were entertained as to his recovery. Drs Gamble and Brockinton were called in, however, and through their ministering his condition became less alarming and at this time he is well on the way to re covery. On account of the darkness and _ some conflicting versions of the affair as told by eye witnesses it is difficult to get at the exact nature of the accident. y . A Business Change. As is indicated by a notice of dissolution which appears in another column, the cloth nig and men's furnishing business ? heretofore existing under the firm name of- Kinder & Steele has passed into the hands cf the latter, Mr J B Steele having bought out L P Kinder's interest. There has also been a ; change of stand, the store having been removed to the brick building on the opposite side of Acaaemy street, one aoor oeiow tee Kingstree Hardware Co's ' establishment. The new stand is a good one and with the energy and esecu- 1 tive ability which the new proprietor possesses, add?d to the < good will and patronage that : the business has gained, we ; have no doubt that Mr Steele i will meet with the success that j should be his bv right of merit. 1 L To our friends, and ir 8^ mind them that we 1 uine bargains to oft'ei in li 10II CLASS w) down prices. fl Our Furniture ] la replete with every W2 demands of th? mow v# chaser.
