LETTER FROM HENDERSONVILLE

> Mr W D Bryan Writes about Mountain
* Breezes and Scenery.
Editor Countv nV' t'iu: ?
As I sit he:-'- tin- ','orch enjoying
the monntaiu Iwtrze, which is
delightful, im thoughts go down iu
dear oid Williamsburg and I wonder
I if it can be hot there now as it was
when I left there three weeks ago.
We sleep under cover every uight.
Three davs after we arrived here
faithful old horse "Joe," ar
rived and we have since then put in
^^some long drives in the country and
^Bin the farming section. Our first
^B trip was over to Horse Shoe. There
we dined with Mr A Cannon, one
of Heuderson county's most substantial
citizens and a large planter.
He has an elegant home well
stocked with a herd of Devon cattle.
We were royally entertained by his
hospitable family. Af'er diuner we
started out for the Frencb Broad
valley. Crossiug the river we drove
on up to Mills river valley and in
the valleys of these two rivers I saw
some of the finest corn 1 ever saw, I
except Mr A Cannon's with whom
| we dined. His is the finest I have
I Wt flppfl
' We went ou over Mills river.
The scenery at Mills river is beautiful;
the mountain sides there are
dotted with boarding houses and
hundreds of boarders are out there.
This is 10 miles from Henderson ille.
Our next long drive was
down to Chimney rock, IB miles,
[ran- the Blue Kidge at Hickory
' Not gap, going down the mountain
for S miles. The rugged mountain
scenery on this 8 miles of rock is
indescribable. At the foot of the
mountain stands a rock projecting
out of the side of the mountain 240
J feet high, 60 feet across. This is
called Chimney rock. Just before
startiug down this mouutaiu you cross
^ a little hill in the sand about 6 feet
"itjivide, which is the dividing line for
the water courses of the mountains.
ff5 All water falling on the west side
k of this six foot ridge finds its way
^kinto the Santee river and that on the
PP^^t8ide goes into the French Broad,
[ thence into the Tennessee ami on into
, the Mississippi river.
Oar next long trip was back into
Sonth Carolina. We started out last
Tuesday morning for Caesar's Head,
. 26 miles from Hendersonville; we
went up the Crab Creek valley,
where we saw some very fine corn
and fine cattle. We arrived at Caesar
s Head at 6 o'clock p m, had
supper at 6:30 and then went up on
the rock, which forms Caesar's Ilea d,
and in company with others saw the
son set, which was simply grand. It
took two minutes and forty seconds
to hide itself behind Hog Back
mountain and continued to shine for
1 some time beyond the mountain,This
sight will have to be seeu to be appreciated.
After spending the night ou Caesar's
Head we left next morning for
f- Buck Forest, and down on Little
river. This river is noted tor its
* magnificent waterfalls, viz., the
. * it iah A.KvTJ:/VV?
1 xnpiecc iaiJ8,iUU ieet ui^u, mc mgu
112 feet high, and the Bridal
F Veil falls, about 150 feet high. The
K river at this point is 225 feet wide
l| and we walked across it under the
fall3 perfectly dry, not even getting
K our feet wet. From there we started
' out for Hendersonville and our faithln
ful old "Joe'' bronght us in at 7:30
f? o'clock. We are resting to-day.

I paper and all my friends in WilliamsL

HARPERS HAPPENINGS.

Harpers, August 30:?An ice,
cream festival will be given at
the home of Mr and Mrs \V S
Camlin on Tuesday evening,
August 31, for the benefit of the 1
j Harpers school. The patrons of'
! this school have made applicaI
tion to the State for aid, putting j
j up the sum of $30 with their application.
This school is ex!
pected to have a seven months'
; term. The people are enthusiastic
over education in our little
I
[ town.
j There have been several bales
i of new cotton ginned here the
; past week and shipped to marj
ket.
Mr G C Grier is all smiles toj
day and seems in a tine glee over
j the 10-pound boy that arrived at
j his home last Sunday, August 29.
The people of this town and
community are awaiting with interest
the outcome of the protest
of the Georgetown county
prohibitionists. At last accounts
Mr Walter Hazard, their attorney,
was still in Columbia trying
to get a hearing before the State
board of canvassers. Comptroller
General Jones seemed to have
brought on a deadlock. It seems
that Mr Jones takes a delight in
holding the State board at bay.
I guess since Judge Hydrick's
order he has taken his seat
with the other members of the
board.
A dead negro child partly
buried was found a few days
ago by roliceraan on me
Georgetown side of the county
road and the matter was reported
to the officers of the town.
On investigation it was found
to be a child which had died a
few days ago and was taken out
by the negro family and buried
on the farm of W S Camlin without
his knowledge or consent
The negroes were reprimanded
by the intendant of the town and
ordered to take up the body and
re-bury the same in the negro
cemetery of the town.

Letter from Rev. S J. McCoonellEditor
Couutv ltecord: ?
I now assume the pleasant task of
writing a few lines as the first to my
r> - ?r
mauy friends of Williamsburg county
since coming into the "Old North
State." The health of myself and
family has been almost perfect since
our arrival here. Our location at
Orrum, the place we have chosen as
a home for the present, is in every
way satisfactory. I found and purchased
a desirable lot, on which lias
been built a comfortable home, with
due water and surroundings of convenience.
The people,though strangers, have
been exceedingly kind and neighborly
to us. We have a good school and
a live little town of thrifty people.
So, in most respects we are very well
fixed for the present; yet, however,
we do not expect to make this our
permanent home, as I expect to take
work in the North Carolina conference
after this present year.
After carefully looking after the
comfort of my family,! then took np
' the evangelistic work amoug the
Voofr T.nmKoi-frtn nnttrtn mills frVl is
was June 1?first, and since that
time I have been constantly engaged
in this very needful work. My labors
have been signally blessed, in
the conversion of more than a hundred
people, the reclamation of mauv
and the organization of one church.
Mv associations with the brethren
with whom I have labored have been
1J very pleasant and they have shown
t! me much kindness and recognition,
: bv which I have been made to feel
very much at home. But in North
E Carolina, as much so or more thau
' in South Carolina, I find the great
. need of old time revivals, that the
_ | people may be kept from ritualism
t and materialism, into which they ap?|
pear to be very fast drifting.
3 i I am now engaged in and am boldly
ing several meetings with Rev N M
McDouald iu the vicinity of Fayette.
> ville.and we are having splendid success
in every respect,especially in the
conversion of souls.
And now,expressing to my former
parishioners and friends a very tender
and affectionate remembrauce of
them all, I promise to write more at
another time.
Sincerely,
S .1 MCConwku .

p
"My mother is a great sufferer
from rheumatism, and Dr.
Miles' Anti-Pain Pills is the only
remedy that relieves her."
MRS. G. DAVENPORT,
Roycefield, N. J.
The pains of rheumatism are
almost invariably retei^ed with
Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Piffs. They
i also overcome tnai nervous irritation
which prevents sleep because
they soothe the nerves. To
chronic suffers they are invaluable.
When taken as directed,
they relieve the distress and
save the weakening influence of
pain, which so frequently prostrates.
Many sufferers use them
whenever occasion requires with
the greatest satisfaction, why;
not you? They do not derange
the stomach nor create a habii.
Why not try them? Get a package
from your druggist. Take it
according to directions, and if
it does not benefit he will return
your money.

f
Ever have a "low-dowa" pain in
j the back?
j In the "small," right over the
hips?
That's the home of a backache.
It's caused by sick kidneys.
That's why Doan's Kidney Pills
cure it.
Kingstree people endorse this.
Read a case of it:
Mrs M 6 Montgomery, Railroad
Ave, Kingstree, S C, says: "I can
recommend Doan's Kidnev Pills
highly in return for the great benefit
I have received from their use. I
had a lameness across my loins and
such severe backaches that I could
not turn in bed. Mornings on arising,
I was so lame and sore that I
coold hardly dress myself and it required
considerable effort for me to
get about. That my kidueys were
out of order was shown by the unnatural
appearance of the secretions.
Doan's Kidney Pills, procured from
Scott's drug store, not only banished
the backache but restored my kidneys
to a normal condition."
For sale by all dealers. Price 50
cents. Fo8ter-Milburn Co., Buffalo,
