The Redemption of "Poverty Flat"
This is what is going on in that
once dilapidated section of Union.
Messrs. Hames it Lipscomb recently
completed a large two-story brick
store in that section. Now, Mr.
Lipscomb is erecting another store
forty feet front, two stories high
along side of the first. This latter
store will be for rent. It is situated
on the 8pot formerly occupied by a
large livery stable. This old shack
has been torn away and work on the
new brick store begun. Some one
has said: "We must change the
name from 'Poverty Flat' to 'Wall
Street,' " and tho suggestion is a
good one. Hames it Lipscomb may
well feel that they deserve the thanks
of the citizens of Union. Go down
and see for yourself that a transformation
has taken place.
Letter to Rev, L. M. Rice,
Union. S. C.
Dear Sir. Three churches iu Baldwinsville,
N. Y., have had their first lesson
in Devoe.
Messrs. Osterhout & Lock wood painted
the Presbyterian parsonage;estimated
30'gallons; took 22.
Messrs. Slingerland & Shutter painted
the Episcopal church; estimated 40 gallons;
took 28.
same painters painted Ihe Catholic
church; estimated 50 gallons; took 39.
Of course they estimated from what
they had been using. The saving in
paint and labor is four to Ave dollars a
gallon. Total saving on three jobs $125
to $150?the painting costs two or three
times as much as the paint, you know.
Yours truly,

VETERAN AGEE EXTENDS
A WARM INVITATION.
Telia What a Good Time All Will
Have.?This November There
Will Be No Foraging for
Grub hike Forty One
Yeara Ago.
On November 19th, 1802, tire grand
I army of the Potomac was turned over to
the command of General A. ?. Burnside.
He had confidence in himself and
his bosses were sure he was the man that
would lead that army into Richmond.
I suppose one, to read his thoughts about
then, would find he had concluded to
eat his Christmas dinner in Richmond,
so on Stafford's hill he dined his grand
army.
Lee and Jackson lined the Fredericksburg
heights with only 60,000 men,
while Burnside had 145,000. Things
began to look mighty blue for the Johnnies
all along that noisy valley, but the
Johnnies were not scared. They knew
they could stand their ground at odds of
even three to one.
Well, they came 65,COO against let*
than 25,000 and let me tell you something
that happened. They came walking
in long, blue and regular lines, but
when they went back they were in somewhat
of a hurry, and cared not for the
lines, nor for the officers in command.
We planted 1,284 and furnished an escort
for all who wanted to go on to
Richmond. There were 1,769 of them,
but they had to leave their guns and we
were willing to carry as many more as
would go like we wanted them.
Old soldiers of the army of Northern
Virginia who fought side by side with
me and shared all the hardship of life,
1 love every one of you
Neither nakedness nor suffering
caused you to falter from duty. Yes,
you stood firm to the last hour and were
{naf no roQ/ltr t Kon no atror ?* ilual a JaoIW
j?aov no \ nu j in o*vi w/ ucai o uriltil
blow to the enemy who was invading
our land and making waste our homes
and property. We stood like soldiers.
We fought like soldiers and when we
had to give up for the odds against us,
we gave i?p like soldiers.
Yes, come boys, to Augusta and we
will try to make you have one of the
best times you ever had in your life.
The hogs wiH be killed and the sheep
and chickens will he sacrificed and you
will not have to forage for your grub*
Ho everybody corno. Bring the children
and the wives and the whole family.
As, the women say,*yeu must be sure to
come, for I am going^to look for you.
Yes, come, tor the gathering of our
soldiers together will he different from
tho one we had at Fredericksburg on the
13th of December, 1802, just 41 yeais
ago. Then we rallied to kill and we
did kill. Now we will rally to have fun
and a good time. So come over and be,
with us Id this reunion.
liespectfully your comrade,
G. F. Aoek, Co. F , 20th Ga.
A New Drttg Company.

an okra leaf. W.J. Long, a stndent of
the Booker Washington school, sent a
leaf there for inspection, which was said
to be okra cotton.
The wintry chill has blown upon us a

Mr. Grady Moore has a smoking pipe
that was found near an Indian camp.
This pipe is made of solid rock and
weighs one pound. Also he has some
pieces of a howl made of soapitone, and

pieces of their curious make up. The
wife of this same man has now a copy of
Union Times which announced the
hanging of Phineas Johnson 50 or more
years ago. It also contains some writings
of Telephone of Jonesville.
