Mr D B Knight has bought

acres adjoining and laid off a

- Pour months ago the horse of
' Mr W P Rodgers stucjc a splinH

n Several pieces were removed

I > thought that all had been remov9LLed;
but Saturday Mr M R Smith
pulled oiriru piece that measured,-by
the writer's desk rule,
5\ inches long and f of an inch
wide. How in the world that
horse lived with such a piece of
wood in his bead passes compre
H^hession. It must have penetrated
the brain, else how could
a splinter of such size enter
A where it did without rupturing
Wy the brain? The case seems a
really remarkable one.
Mrs C Matilda Moore, whose
home was nearjthis town, passed
I away last Friday morning and
was buried Saturday afternoon
at the "Cook burying ground."
She-was the wife of Mr K A
^Moore, perhaps better known
as "Squire" Robert Moore. Mrs
Moore was 79 years of age and
'Squire" Moore is 84. When
the angel Separated them they
had been married 55 years. Six
children"?gre born to them, only
tbre^pT^whom reached mav
turity, to .wit: Messrs JIC and
WW Moore and Mrs J J Morris,
the latter dying some six years
p^ago. It is impossible to say
anything of the character of
Mrs Moore?"Aunt Tilly," as
ghe was called by half the people
of this country?without at
the Same time depicting that of
.
Squire Moore. They were con-j
gap^l and had lived together
. so long that their sentiments,
feelings, aspirations, lives had
blended so that there was no
dividing" line- They were in?0
deed' and in truth one, aqd
']?; though now their bodies are
separated for a orief time, it
( seems more than possible that
there has not been nor will be
I a division of their spirits. They
[b -" '
lived their lives of honest, open
frank and hearty simplicity, doing
their duty as their religion
and their souls taught them,and
won the love and respect of all
who came in contact with them.
"Aunt Tilly" knew nothing and
cared less for the pretences and
and hypocrisies of modern society.
With her there were no
subterfugies or indirections.
Whatever she thought, she said,
and her thoughts were earnest
ones. There was about her
that hearty simplicity that
marks nobility. She sleeps, but
not for Jong. Soon will come
that newer and better life that
awaits those who deserve it.

Mrs Eliza A. McGee.
Mrs Eliza A McGee departed
this life on Friday7, October 27,
1905, aged sevent}*-tour years.
Mrs McGee was the eldest
daughter of Capt J W Stuckey
of Bishopville, S. C. With her
husband, Mr John McGee, who
preceded her in death several
years ago, she moved to this
county fourteen years ago from
Darlington. She Is survived by
eight children, also three sisters
and three brothers. The
funeral services were held at
the Williamsburg church on Saturday,
Rev W B Justus being
the officiating minister, and in
the presence of her sorrowing
relatives and friends, her x body
was laid to rest in the city of
the dead.
Mrs McGee was a kind-hearted,
Christian woman, being a
consistent member of the Methodist
church. Her last illness
was of about two weeks' duration
and she was entirely conscious
until the end came. All
that loving hands could do to
soothe her last hours and stay
the grim messenger's approach
was done and in the midst of her
children and kindred she passed
peacefully away. She was a
true wife, and a devoted mother.
She was ever ready to sacrifice
her own pleasure to make others
happy, and to know her was
to love her.
May the reward be hers that
has been promised to those who
have been faithful in this life in
the fulfilment of their allotted
tasks and served loyally,the
Master so as to earn the benediction:
"Well done, good and
faithful servant, enter thou into
the joy of thy Lord."
One Who Knew Her.

Notice to Trustees.
The State Supt. of Education lias instructed
me as follows:
Please let your Trustees understand
that local or special taxes may be voted
after January 1st. There ought to be
a great many such taxes voted for next
year. This is the only plan under the
law to replace the dispensary funds in
those Counties which have or may vote
out the dispensaries. For the last two
or three years the schools have been
receiving fr< m $*200,000 to$250,000 from
dispensary profits. This amount exceeds
either the poll tax or local taxes.
Local taxation is one of the best ways
to raise school revenues, because it requires
local interest and enthusiasm.
Most of the States raise the greater
part of their school funds by local taxation.
While some districts have voted
all the Constitution allows them to:
yet less than 20 per cent of our school
revenues is raised in this way. Let us
agitate this question now, so that the
people may be ready to vote by January.
