As stated lu^t week quite a number of
1 old vets from Un 'on attended the Cous
federate Veterans' Ronton at Columbia.
"I They report having had a' great time and
( say the people exerted themtnlves to the
utmost to meet the demands of the uiiy
expected large attendance of veterans,
a We were not much off in our estimate
u that this was going to be the largest
y crowd ever seen at a reunion in this
State.
Itev. E. A. McDow tendered his
P resignation as pastor of Duck Pond
" church last Sunday. The conpregation
accepted the resignation with much regret.
Mr. McDow has been giving general
satisfaction to the congregation and
-d they regret to part with him. The
\r resignation was occasioned by the incon>P
venience of attending to this charge,
10 having to make a trip each time while
?r other work more advantageous and con?r
venient had recently opened up. The
nr congregation has called Rev. D. C.
?y Freeman who has accepted and will
preach the 9nd Sunday in June.
The Chief's Quick Work.
A youug iniss came into 1he ( like
Monday atteinon and asked tlio cost of
inserting an advertisement, for lest
property. Upon inquiry we learned she
had just lost her gold watch and we
coukl see the tears welling up iti her eyes
as the told us ot her loss Our sympathy
was at once aroused and recognizing that
quick work was necessary in this cawe.
We told her we would tee what con'. 1
be done. We immediately 'phoned to
police headquarters and fortunately
caught the chief, Mr. Israel, in and related
1110 circumstances to him, and then
sent the young lady to tell him the particulars
Chief Israel started out at
once, and in half an hour handed the
happy girl her watch. He, by hi-< prompt
acnou, got iu inn piace ? nae piib i?)si
the watch befote any one else had pas-ed
along. Wo are in etd glad that the
young lady had htr watch restored so
soon.
As to Fust Driving.
Recently complaints have been coming
to our ears legardiug the reckless driving
alone the main tliroughfares of our town.
We have said nothing al>oiit it its we
weie in hopes the leports were exaggerated
and that the occurrences were
raie. Hut wo ate convinced that this
tiling has gone t? the i*>int wiieie it is
in c-iss<iy to call a halt before soin
seiious ii'juiy is done to some one. 1.
seems that the eastern portion of Main
stieet is usually selected for this speeding
cf teams. It must be remembered
that, there are a great many chiidren on
this street and others of the town and
should one of them be run over and
killed or mamed for life it would Ire poor
consolation to hear expressions of regret.
There is no need for fast driving 0:1 i he
public streets of the town, and the
quicker a stop is put to it the better.
We holm it will not become necessary
for us to say more along this line as we
believe all that is necessary is to call the
attention ot the city authorities to ttio
evil, and they will take the proper step*
to put a final stop to it.

Mr. Mack Gault, J). White and a
number of others from hockhart Junction
paid the river a pleasant visit with
the flsh hook, seine and gun. They wer?>

none with the other two weapons. As
they did meet with the bear which has
been reported out on the river
their gun was rendered useless. As. Mr
M. Gault and the writer both correspond

Last wtt k your correspondent attended
the Reunion of the S. ('. Division U. O.
Veterans in Columbia, and like all the
others with whom he has talked, he is
unable to find words to < xpuss his mat- i
itude to the people or' that magnitieent
city for the cot dial welcome and friendly
entertainment extended him while in
Colombia.
Most of your readers t?w? doubtless
sien accounts of the proceedings in tiic
daily papers, ami as our spa te is too short
to do justice to it we will have to con-|
tent, ourselves with a brief account oL
what, we saw HiaLbftMt JSfg^ ,), \ pa io? ,
|Tr?lx7fl<f^"'^P,'tHnbu'K and On r^kfo j
I fpejitir'a. . Tfce tafiumla was that 5,000
E\-Conn-derat-e soldiers were In the city
dining the leunion. To this you may
ad I an innumerable liost of sons and
daughters of the Confederacy, all of
which went to make the r, union a success
The veterans held their meetings
in the city hall, an elegant budding!
nicely arranged for the comfort o:; eventi !
ll lus.ind peisons at one time. li, is
needhsa to say that every incti of room
was occupied during each session of tlie
convention, and at times it ran over w itii
enthusiasm which was caught up by th>
sons and daughters as w?:l as visitors ;
wlioiilled the galleries to ovarii living. !
It has lieen your corresp indents good
fortune to attend several Suite reunion
occasions but none of them beat this
either in point of numbers or decorum.
Everything passed off quietly and the
icikjm 3 nuu men nitrous never Will
forget the oval ion they received at the
hands of the Columbians during tlie reunion
festivities. The speaking was :
grand, the music excellent and tie* beauty '
of the fair sex who attended the mt tilings
and took caro of the veterans was
simply sublime. Grand old Columbia,
rising from the ashes of an unholy vandalism
she sets today queen among the
American cities north as well as south
I only re{>eat that which every veto-rap
in that huge assembly of persons will
beirme rait in when I say it was the
grandest reunion ever held in this State.
Of Columbia, we may say, "Many
daughters have done nobly, hut tliou exeel
lest them all."
It was our good fortune to be assigned
a home with Mayor Carle and his most
excellent fao.ily where we v.eie entertained
in the very best of style bv our
geniri host ard bis m at accomplished
wife. The Mayor is a young ui in and |
one of tlie most progressive in our State
or country. To occupy the position of
Chief Magistrate of a city like Columbia
is no small honor and I will say that in
hotioiing him with the chief magistry
t he city has honored herself.
We had as our room mates G*n'l 11,
11. Hemphdl, of Abbeville, and Mr. C.
