A VARIETY OF NEWS
FROM LAKE CITY,
<
BIG TOBACCO "BREAK?"THE
GRIM REAPER-SCHOOL PRINCIPAL
ELECTED--PERSONAL.
Lake City, July 25:?Messrs J F
McFaddin and L C Dove were noted
here last Friday from Kingstree.
The formal opening of the Lake
City tobacco market took place on
Thursday, the 20th instant. More
* J_ I
? * than seventy-five thousand pounusi
were sold, and the prices realized
averaged six and three-fourths cents
per pound. This price is regarded
as an indication that high prices for
the weed will obtain throughout the
season, the prices at this sale being
very much higher than in former
years. Up to this date more than a
quarter of a million pounds have
been sold upon this market. All the
leading tobacco companies are represented
here, and in addition,there
are quite a number of independent
buyers. The warehouses have full
corps of auctioneers, book-keepers,
checkers, etc. and everything is in i
order for handling all the tobacco
that will come.
Miss Ruth Williams gave a progressive
domino" party last Thursday
from 6 to 9 o'clock, in honor of
Misses Helen and Leah Townsend,
Ruby McCleningham and Esther'
Sessoms of Forence, who are visit-1
ing at Mrs H 0 S Jackson's. The j
refreshment, consisting of ice cream
and cake, was served by Misses j
Gretchen Bass and Leone Williams.

Mrs Ida G Joyner and children;
are on Sullivan's Island for somei
weeks.
Mr J L Stuckey vowed, in a fit of j
wrath, in the ocean he would take a
bath;and Saturday night went South
as far as Charleston for the purpose
of carrying out his threat.
Miss Sallie Bass entertained a few
guests at dinner Thursday, complimentary
to her cousin, Miss Emma'
Bass of Latta.
Miss Lora Rogers of .Conway,
Ark, is here on a visit to her uncle,
Mr M M Rogers, and his family.
This is the first time Miss Rogers j
has ever been to the natal land of
her ancestors, her father having j
moved to Arkansas before she was,
born.
Mrs Jane Kelley, relict of the late
Mr Thomas Kelley, died Saturday
last, and was buried Sunday afternoon
in the Baptist church-yard at
this place. She was quite an old
lady and her death was not unexpected.
Mrs Kelley was the mother
of Mr Madze B Morris.

what would be its condition around j ^
the Isle of Palms and Sullivan's Island
about the close of the summer? j j,
Mr L M Belk, last Monday, got v
seventy-four hampers of pepper; a
from his patch of three-fourths of 1
an acre. Understand, this was only c
one picking, and the plants will con- ^
tinue to bear until frost. This pep-;.

Mr Lexos Lawrence died at his
home near Prospect last Thursday j
and was buried Friday. He was a L
son of the late Dr I N Lawrence
\
and was a young man in the prime ^
of life. Some two years ago that f
mysterious malady known as pellagra
developed upon and in him.
After several months in the State 1
hospital he returned apparently c
much improved, but the improvement
was only superficial, and he t
- - I
succumbed. In character, life, hab-J'
its and influence few young men are r
the equal of Mr Lawrence and none 1
his superior. It almost seems the r
irony of fate that such a young man t
should be given over to what seems 1
a terrible death, while so many
worthless pimps live on. "He s
knoweth best," however,and it were *
well to inquire no further. 1
Mr A P Hatchell, whose home is c
now near Effingham, was in town *
last week with his daughter, Mary. 1
Mr Hatchell was in a hospital in At- v
lanta about two months this summer
and he does no seem to be fit for a 1
prize fight yet.

In Memoriam
Whereas, our beloved President
nd co-worker, Miss Pearl Graham,
as called on June 15,1911,from her
laster's work here below in this
Luxiliary H M S at Bethesda church,
o a sphere of greater usefulness in
he world beyond the skies; we, belg
deeply grieved by her death, deire
to express our great sorrow.
'herefore be it resolved:
First: That in her death each of j
s has felt keenly our loss, and the
mxiliary has lost one to whom it!
as ever looked as its President since
;s organization. She never failed us,;
ut constantly endeavored to do her i
est and no one loved the Word
l
etter than she.
Second: That we extend our deep-j
at sympathy to her parents, sisters
nd brothers, who have suffered ir-1
eparable loss, and would prayerfuly
commend them to the love and
omfort of a Divine Father, Whose
:oodness and loving kindness cannot
>e questioned. May they look back
rith loving thoughts on her life with
hem and believe that God gave her
o them to draw them closer to Him
- - " ? ? . J_ !
nd that she now iar exceeds ner i
weet and beautiful girlhood in the
eauty of a glorious immortality in
he heavenly home, where our Savour
is gathering His jewels:
All the bright ones;
All the pure ones;
His loved and his own.
Third: That copies of these resoiitions
be inscribed in our minutes,
ind also sent to her family, and
hat the Southern Christian Advoate
and The County Record be askd
to publish them.
Signed,
G W Owens
