"Friendshi p,Cha r ity,Benev<v
lcncc,"
The pervading spirit in the atmosphere
of Kingstree this week
has been, "Friendship, Charity and
Benevolence." The Knights of the
Triangle the exemplars of that
motto have been with us this
week and their presence here
"\ will loug be a fragrant memory.
In their entertainment Kingstree
measured fullv up to her reputation
for hospitality and we believe
that not one of the visiting
Knights will depart with othflvn

our town and people.
The exercises were well attended
throughout and the committees
in charge are deserving of the
highest commendation for their
tireless and intelligent work.
On every hand were heard expressions
of admiration for our
beautifnl town and appreciation
for the cordiality 6howD in the en
tertainment of the guests of
Kingstree Lodge. As Lieutenant
Governor McLeod remarked, he
oame here some vears ago when
Kingstree was a straggling village
with "magnificent distances" the
chief characteristic; but those
distances have been filled in witb
fine brick business blocks and elegant
residences, aud today he got
Off the train and found a city.
Many of the Knights here for
the first time expressed surprise
at the size of our town and the
number and beauty of its bui'dings
and all were charmed with
the beauties of the river scenery.
The Convention of the Second
District was an unqualified success
and we believe that every
visiting knight will bear with him
to his home a warm feeling of regard
for KiDgstree and her hospitable
people.
Some of our friends, whom we
know to be good pay, have asked
us to carry their subscriptions
over until fall. Thev do not
seem to realize the force of the
postoffice department's ruling. We
have no option in the matter.
To carry over a subscription one
year or longer we would incur
the risk of forfeiting our postal
privilege of having papers dis

Dear Sir:
I beg to acknowledge receipt of
New York draft payable to my order
for One Thousand Dollars, in
full payment of the policy in your
company held by my late husband,
Mr John P Nelson. The claim
papers iu the case were mailed to
you on April 27, 1908, and I note
that the draft handed me by you
was issued by the Atlanta Bank on
April 29, the same day that the
proof papers were received at the
home office of the company. The
very short time elapsing between the
nnmnloli.ir. nf nnnprs anrt thp
receipt of the draft iu payment of
claim shows that your company acta
very promptly iu payment of its policies,
and I am glad of an opportunity
to express my appreciation of
your company's promptness in this
case, as well as the assistance rendered
hy you in preparing the claim
papers. I would advise all those
contemplating taking insurance to
take it with the Southern States
Life Insurance Company.
Again expressing my deep appreciation
to both yon and your company,
lam,
Respectfully yours,
Christina J. Nelson.

Wo!le. Mr Moil though ni<
in his contention earnestly an
feelingly defended bis resolu-tion,
but the sentiment of Hie*
convention was too string to
be overcome. When the ques-.
tion was submitted the dele
gates by an overwhelming majority
voted to table Mr Stoll's
resolution, which meant that
delegates go to Columbia unin-!
structed.
Immediately following a res- i
olution was presented endorsing
dryan as> canujuaic iui jji evident,
which was carried without
discussion. Those opposed to
the endorsement, having won
their tight in the matter of ins
truction seemed to be satisfied
and wholly indifferent to any
postmortem action taken.
The convention was called t^
order at noon by Chairma;
Williams, who was made t
porary chairman, with f
Wolfe as temporary secretary.
After enrolling the delegates
and transacting other routine
business, the temporary organization
was made permanent
and the election of officers followed.
Dr Williams was reelected
chairman and C W Wolfe
secretary, without opposition.
Mr Philip Stoll was unanimously
elected member of State execu- I
tive committee.
Then came the election of
delegates to the State convention,
and as there were eight
places to fill and only eight
candidates were offered, the}
delegates were chosen by acclamation,
thus avoiding a long
and tedious balloting.
Following are the delegates
elected: A H Williams, P H
Stoll, W S Lynch, J S Graham,';
R II Kellahan, L P Kinder. E F
Prosser and S B Poston.
A motion was made by Mr
Blackwell that our delegates to
the State convention exert their
influence to put all candidates
in the primary, except supervisor
of registration and members
of the board of control, which
are barred under the constitution
carried.
The following members of the
executive committee were duly
elected: Prospect, J J Eaddy;
Indiantown, W C Wilson; High
Hill, W P Gause; Mouzon, 1) B
