No more painful duty has befallen this writer than to announce the death of Master Milton Marcus, which occurred at 1:25 this morning at the home of his parents, Mr and Mrs S Marcus, on West Main street. This bright youth was Bearing his seventeenth birthday, having been born in NewYork city, May 30,1896. He came to Kingstree with his parents some ten or twelve years ago. He whs a bright boy and possessed a quiet,amiable disposition,which commended him to the high esteem of all who knew him. About three years ago his health became impaired and the cause was pronounced to be diabetes. Everything that medical skill could do for him here and in his native city was not spared and only two months ago he returned from New York, where t__ 1 l 1 ii _ . # . ne naa Deen unaer me care 01 a specialist during the summer. On Sunday morning his condition grew worse. Dr W G Gamble was called and on Monday the young man was better; on Tuesday he was able to go for a drive with Mrs W G Gamble, but later in the day he was seized by a sinking spell from which it was thought he would not recover, but he rallied, and his condition was hopeful until yesterday afternoon,when he sank into unconsciousness, remaining so until death relieved him ^t 1:25 this morning. . Thus the Grim Reaper has cast his mantle of death about this bright young man and removed him from our midst, fy>m the fireside of a happy home and from the tender, loving care of devoted parents and twn vonncypr motors to whnrn the profound sympathy of the entire community will go in full measure. The remains were taken to Charleston on the noon-day train and interment will be made in the Jewish cemetery there this afternoon. K. of P. Officers Elected.

The attendance was unusually large at the evening service, as both the Baptist and Presbyterian tninis,ters gave up their pulpits Sunday night so that their congregations might unite in extending a cordial welcome to the new pastor by their presence at the Methodist church. Mr Phillips thanked the large congregation for their presence and interest, and stated that for the next year,at lea^t.he expected to be with us and hoped to be one of us; he also expressed an earnest desire and willingness to take part in anything i tending to the moraland spiritual up| lift of the community and to affiliate i heartily with the other denomina' tions in all religious work.
