L)iki>, Utile Flore'ta, daughter of
T. C. and Annie E. Jolly, aged !i
years, 1 month and 12 days. She
had been afflicted most of her short
little life and it seemed oftentimes
that her gentle little spirit would
mite ii8 mgni, Din sne clung on to
the brittle thread of life until fever
set in which was more than her delicate
little frame could stand. Just
one week after she was taken we laid
her gently to rest at old S?r.lis
church. And we sadly realize the
solemn fact that we will not see our
darling babe any more, nor hear the
sweet sound of her tender little voice
again till we too shall have crossed
that cold, chilly stream. Until then,
little Floretta farewell.
A sufferer ?-lnce she wh., born
L<ttle Floretta is dead and gone,
Gone to the God who gave her birth
Tco sweet, too pure, to live on earth.

Speaking at Santtic.
Saturday was campaign day here
for candidates for Congress. Both
candidates were present and made
good interesting speeches to a small
orowd owing to many people misunderstanding
the date. Both presented
their claims for further suffrage.
They were very generous towards
each other and only clashed when old
Samps Pop* was brought up, and
Mr. Johnson was charged with voting
for Pope as an Independent, whom
Wade Hampton said was worse than
a Radical. Mr. Johnson acknowledging
it, telling the why. likening
himself to Saul of Tassus, the chief
prosecutor, but was now a christian,
and that Mr. Wilson had aided in
putting Pope in a good offloe, etc.,
the one then showing It was before
he was an Independent oandidate for
governor; the other trying to palliate
the offense, if an offense it was. Each
was doing some wrestling here, one
giving some stunning blows to put
the other iu an Independent hole, the
other knocking back and jumping
over like sohool boys playing stack
hats to keep from going In. They
both made strong arguments all along
as to their work. All the bills started
or got through was one's individual
work. Both wanted credit and I
trust both will get credit for what
they did. I give them oredit for oonduotlng
themselves in a manly and
friendly way towards eaoh other.
There is no doubt both are able
men and are strong and straight on
the national issues and both will get
support here. There is some division
vet. even thnnoli If. to
? o? -- w" a HiMuuiy
order. There are sides and some will
tlok to those sides at any rate.
was At the speaking in union.
I went to Union campaign day tc
' hear the speaking and I think the
people behaved nicely. Not aspeakei
was disturbed whether one liked thai
one or not. There was not as much
wrangling and hard feeling among
the candidates as I was led to believe.
I think there was some good speaking,
I enjoyed it and can only speak
for myself. Nobody talked loud at
any time. The candidates went
among the audience electioneering,
making themselves known. I already
knew three of them to wit: Col.
Talbert, J. C. Wilburn and J. T.
Gantt and was glad to see them and
talk with them.
I also enjoyed the mnsic given by
the Cornet Band. I saw no one in
the orowd drunk though there may
have been some, and I heard no
swearing or profane language and
that speaks well for so large a crowd.
A lady friend capable to pass judgment
compliment me. and encouraged
me, telling me to continue to bo candid,
to be firm, etc., even if I lost
some friend?who oould not stand
It?I would make some. (I do not
wish to lose the friendship of any
worthy body.) She set a very pretty
girl, a new acquaintance, to questioning
me, and of course I tried to be
modest. Thank you very much,
ladies, I hope to continue to get your
encouragement and good will.
I will not discuss the candidates
I may fcview things differently on
good grounds and change some. I
am not going to try to lectioneer but
for one man.
I think the city did well by the
candidates by taking them to their
residences (or entertainment. No
one is hnrt by it bat really benefitted.
Why not be brotherly in each cases
and save the candidates from going
to hotels. Union can do nice things,
and is on the whole, big hearted.
