The wet weather and snow has
been very destructive to rabbits and
birds the past few weeks. If the
nresent rate of slaughter were kept
up Ions: the small game would be
exterminated. Some one has estimated
that not less than 1,000 rabbits
have been killed in the river
swarip within the past six week.
Owing to the absence of our foreman
since Saturday, and the further
fact that our office was practically

feel assured that all our readers will
excuse Mr Tolley's absence on account
of his interesting mission.
GONE TO HIS REWARD.

Died, Friday, January 12, at his
home at Greelyville, S C, Mr Samuel
J Taylor. On Thursday before, Mr
Taylor was apparently enjoying his
usual health, when some time in the
afternoon he was suddenly stricken
with paralysis and soon became unconscious.
Although everything
possible was done for him he never
regained consciousness and at 3:30
o'clock Friday morning his spirit
passed away.
Mr Taylor was born in Charleston,
but when a lad of twelve years
he came to Greelyville to live with
his kinsman, Dr Henry Dubose. At
that time what is now the flourishing
town of Greelyville was but a
wilderness and Mr Taylor was one
of the* sturdy pioneers to whose energy
and intelligence the wilder
ness has been reclaimed and in its
midst a flourishing town,surrounded
by a fertile farming country, haB
come into being. As merchant and
farmer, controlling many acres of
land, he was truly a captain of industry
and the fruit of his toil will
long live after him.
Mr Taylor was gifted with unusual
intelligence,a pleasing personality
and was very entertaining in his
conversation. His hospitable home
stood invitingly open to his friends
and, withal, the stranger within his
gatei3 wal never turned away. He
kept posted on current events and
seemed never more pleased than
when mingling with his friends in
social discourse. He had a large
fund of war anecdotes which he related
with the charm of a natural
raconteur.
As a member of the 6th Regiment,
S C V, Co K, he gave four
years' faithful service at the front,
and his comrades all testify to his
courage and devotion to the Lost
Cause. He was a member of Mt
Hope Baptist church and belonged
to the Masonic order.
The funeral and interment took
place Saturday at 11 o'clock at Mt
Hope church, near Greelyville, the
services being conducted by Rev Mr
Rankin, tie pastor. His wife having
preceded him in death several years
ago,he is survived by foup children:
Mr S V Taylor of Greelyville, Mrs
M D DeLorme of Charleston and
Drs E 0 and W L Taylor of Kingstree.
A good man has gone. May his
sleep be the dreamless slumber of
the just and at the final Judgment
may he meet the reward of the
righteous
