Death of Mrs. Scott?A Pleasant
Social---Tobacco Market Urged.
Scranton, August 12:?Mrs Mary
Scott of Hartsville died last Friday at
hor residence there and was brought I
here Saturday and interred in the!
Methodist cemetery an.id a host of
sorrowing relatives and friends,
Rev J W Bailey officiating. The deceased
was about 64 years old, a former
resident of this place, and was
the wife of Rev William Scott,a Baptist
minister, who preceded her to
the grave a number of years ago.
Dr C H Pate went to Hartsville last
Sunday,visiting relatives,and return-,
ed Monday.
Mr Lowell Lee, now of Spartan
burg, visited relatives here last week
and also made a trip to Charleston.
Mr H A Graham of Greenwood
and Mr H L Graham of Goldsboro,
N C. visited relatives here Sunday.
Mr Sam J Kirby took his little son.
Listen, to a Florence infirmary Monday,
where an operation was necessary
to remove the appendix, which
was successfully done and he was
getting along favorably when last
heard from. We hope he will soon
be well again.
There was a delightful "social" at
thp hnmp nf Mr Harold Graham
Monday evening. Various games
were played and the guests were
pleasingly entertained throughout
the evening. Mr B B Myers and
Miss Lalla Lee; Messrs W A Myers
and Geo Bailey were those who attended
from town.
The latest "dope" is to the effect
that one, or may be two, tobacco
warehouses are to be built here before
the next season. This is the
most needed enterprise here, so,business
men, get behind the idea, agitate
the subject, keep it up, boost it,
"everybody's doin' it." Don't be satisfied
with mere discussion, form
fol/n \rnnr Hnllorc anH
JUUI iUCOO, VtU ii v?rkV JVUI uvitMl w
form the warehouses. Start it moving.
Join in and help, moneyed men.
Don't be a "knocker." If the business
men of this town want bus'?'
iness, build the warehouses; that's
what will bring you tlte "biz."

Lines from Leo.
(Received too late for last week's issue).
Leo, August 11:?Guess the many
readers of The Record would like to
know what has become of "0 K."
i
Sorry to say I have been out three
weeks on account of being sick, but
am glad I am able to be up again
and will give some of the happenings
around Leo.
Dr J G Clinkscales of Spartanburg
failed to come to Prospect last Sunday
on account of being sick. We
were very sorry he did not come, as
we are always glad to welcome Dr
Clinkscales amongst us. Only wish
he could stay down here with us all
the time.
Tobacco-curing is about over; there
are still a few patches about that were
set out late. Now it is going to be
a race with the man and the worms
to see which can house the most of
the weed. Tobacco has brought such
good prices this year I think the i
farmers are making up their minds
to trv next vear to make a better
grade and a bigger crop.
Miss May Fulton of Fredericksburg,
Va, one of our former school
teachers, is visiting friends around
Leo. All are glad to see Miss May
again.
Rev L D Bass gave a lecture Sunday
at Prospect church on prohibition.
We are always glad to hear
these lectures, but if the voters don't
turn out to the polls August ] 9 and
vote the dispensary out, the lectures
from these good men will not avail
much. Now, say brother voter, let
\is crn nnt tn thp nnlls nnd vntp it I
out nnd have prohibition in the true|
sense of the word. 0 K.
Remarkable Cure fur Dysentery.
"1 \\*s attacked with dysentery
about July 15, and used the doctor's |
medicine and other remedies with no
relief,only getting worse all the time. '
I was unable to do anything and my
weight dropped from 145 to 125 *
pounds. I suffered for about two 1
months when I was advised to use
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Di

evening, at the hospitable home
of Mr T J i'hlllips, the young fo;k

ed on little tables, placed some distance
apart and purposely arranged
so that only two would be seated at
one of them, and by some pleasant
and inexplicable reason it so occurred
that a young lady and her gentleman
friend were fortunate to be
sealed together there. Time was
whiled pleasantly away in the lovely
moonlight, ali being unconscious of
ihe fleeting moments as they were engaged
in tete-a-tete conversation until
the wee sma' hours reminded them
that the best of friends must part.
Miss Ethel Nesmith of bake City,
who taught school here a few years
ago, visited her loyal friends in this
section a few days last week. Miss
Nesmith, after leaving here, spent
some time at Columbia University.
N'ew York, under the instruction of
specialists in her profession. Since
then she has attained a degree of
enviable success in the class room,
having taught under Dr Mann at
Florence and Greensboro, N C. She
has recently accepted a position as
principal of the preparatory department
of a female college in Greenville,
and will also do some college
work there.
Mr Dick Phillips of Dalzell visited
relatives here last week.
Miss Ruth Coker. stenocrraoher
for Edwin G Seibels, Columbia,after
spending a short vacation among
relatives and friends here, has returned
to resume her duties in the
office, where she has been employed
for quite awhile.
Miss Leland Phillips of Lamar is
visiting at the home of Mr and Mrs
T J Phillips.
Mr and Mrs John Y McGill, with
their little daughter, Julia Marion,
are spending a few days at the Isle
of Palms.
Mr W E Nesmith, an energetic,
successful business man of Cades,
spent a few hours here Saturday.
Dry weather has materially injured
the cotton and corn crops in this
community, whereas other near sections
have been fortunate in having
more favorable seasons. WES.

"Gone, thou faithful, loving spirit,
Gone to live in Heaven above;
Gone the Kingdom to inherit
Purchased by the God of love."
Thus we think of Samuel Graham
Bryan, eldest child of Walter R and
Lizzie Graham Bryan,whose soul, on
the 18th of August, 1912, passed
from its earthly tabernacle into life
everlasting. Sam was just thirty
years old and had much to live for,
yet he bore his suffering with resignation
and faced the inevitable with
strength imparted only to the weak
who put their trust in a Higher
Power.
At the age of twelve he joined
Union Presbyterian church and
faithfully worked to bring into the
Sunday-school and missionary society
those who were unconcerned

will remember how he loved to sin#:
'bring them in, bring them in;
bring the little ones to Jesus."
He was assistant superintendent
of the Sunday-school at the time of
his death, which was caused by
Bright's disease.
"Saved, saved, but will there be
any stars in my crown?" were among
his death-bed words.
He leaves a loving wife, mother,
father, two brothers, two sisters and
a host of relatives and friends to
mourn his untimely death.
"How we miss thee, precious loved one,
How our hearts are filled with nain:
But to wish thee back, ah, never!
For our loss is Heaven's gain."

Cades News.
(Received too late for last week's issue).
Cades, August 12:?The Hebron
baseball team came up and crossed
bats with our nine Saturday and
was defeated by a score of 9 to 0.
Batteries: Hebron?Baker and Baker;
Cades?Eaddy and Clark. A
few of the Hebron young ladies
came with the team but did not
say very much, as the team did not
do a great deal. We hope the Hebron
boys will learn how to bat be
fore they play us again,for our field- j
ers will forget how to catch a hall if j
we play them much.

White Oak, August 12:?Rev J M

Eaddy school-house, resulting in the
conversion of five and the reclamation
of one.
The tobacco season is almost over
here, or, at least, the most of the
"golden weed" is marketed. The j

with what they saw and heard and

The health of our community is
fairly good at present, for which we
are very thankful.
