Growing: Old.
I'm growing old, nnd yet no fear
Of death or grave appals me ;
Still, as in days of youth, the dear
Sweet love of life enthrals me ;
And still my spirit gladly hears.
The music of the Hying years.
I'm growing old ; my hands, my limbs
Less supple are, less light,
And ' imetimes a strange mistbedimBy
i aru begot?my sight;
l?ut stii. with steady step, my soul
Fares bra ely on toward her goal.
I'm growing old ; Life's tree has shot
Its blossoms long ago;
The winds that blow about my head
Are chill with sleet and snow,
Yet they, in some mysterious way,
Still bring the violet scent of May.
I'm growing old ; alas, so far
My youth behind me lies,
It seems to be a phantom star,
It) dream-imagined skies ;
And yet one touch of Memory's wane
Transports me to youth's fairyland!
I'm growing old?how swiftly ilies
Time's shuttle through the loom!
Weaving before my very eyes
My garment for the tomb;
Yet fear I not, nor feel I pain.
Beyond the grave I'll live again !

ANOTHER TRAGEDY.
Mr. J. Waddy St. Clair, a Onloc
County Man, Is Forced to Kill a
Man In Texas?Hundreds
Rally to Waddy's Aid
and Offer to Go On
Hta Rnnr)
On last Tuesday evening J. W.
3t. Clair shot J. A. Cundifif three
times with a double barrel shot gun
from the cffi-cts of which he died
and the following is a statement
from Mr. St. Clair as to the cause
of the tragedy:
On Tuesday, January the 3rd,
I went in company with Will
Brown, one of my tenants, to measure
some cord wood and land.
After I had measured the wood and
land, we hunted for rabbits and
squirrels for a while, it being nearly
night, Mr. Brown leaving me when
he came to his home. I started
home still hunting by way of Mr.
Combest's pastures. While on my
way I met CundifT about 300 yards
south of the upp :r McKinnoy road
and west of Blue Ridge about one
and one-fourth miles. The first I
saw of Mr. Cundiff, he was in the
road in front of me and had a stick
in his hand. He stopped mc and
asked mc if I had been over to hie
place. I told him I had not, bul
had been to moMiirn wm-ul
land for Mr. Wall and Mr. Brown,
Cundiff said, "If I knew you had,
G?d?you, I would kill you."
He then said, "G? d? you, I am
going to kill you and burn you out
tonight." He got in somo G or 8
feet of my buggy by this time. He
jump ;d at me and caught my gun
in his left hand with a stick in his
right hand. The horse made about
two jumps forward with the buggy,
this jerked the gun loose from
CundifT, and he fell backward south
and I foil north out of tho buggy
over tho wheel, making U3 some ton
or fifteen feet apart. As I arose tc
my foot Cundiff was placing his
hand in his inside pocket as if tc
draw his gun, and as he drow his
gun from his pocket, I fired at his
legs, and by this time I had got
straight up on my feet and I fired
af,ain, missing him. I then re"
loaded my gun and fired the third
shot. During this time Cundiff had
fired two shots. After I had shot
the third shot Cundiff ran and
hollowed to me "don't shoot any
more." Ho ran some 75 or 8C
yards and fell. I walked dowr
somewhere near 20 yards of him
and looked at him. I then started
back after my horse which had rui:
off when the shooting began and
Mr. John Howard caught the horsi
some GOO yards from where he first
started. When I got to my buggy
Mr. Howard got in the buggy and
came with me to Blue Ridge
When I got to Blue Ridge and as 1
passed Constable Hildreth's resi'
denco, he not being at homo, I told
his wife to toll him to como to my
store as quick as possible. Whor
ho came I surrendered to him and
was in nis charge until ho mach
bond and was released by the con
stable approving the bond.
Mr. St. Clair is well known t<
all the p eople in tliis section of th<
country as being one of the mos
progressive, generous and accommo
dating business men in it and t<
attest his popularity every man tha
came to town that day signed hi
bond without solicitation on hi
part and even his many friends ii
the neighboring towns of McKinney
Farmersville, Whitewright, Tren

as they heard of his trouble offer
ing any assistance they could render
There was over one hundred an<
fifty names signed to the bond o

Tribute of Respect Knights Templar
By Spartanburg Commandery.
Asvlum of ftrvirtnnhlirnr
I ? -- " ? *" n
j mandery No. 3 Knights Templar,
i Spartanburg, Doc. 20, 1901.
I Whereas, it has pleased our hcav1
only Father to remove the immortal
spirit of Sir Knight Joseph McKis*
, sick from the earthly asylum to that
, : Temple not made with hands etcrI
nal in the heavens. We, hisFratcrs,
. | desire to put on record an expres'
sion of our estimate and appreciation
of him as a man and a Mason.
, As a man?He was one of God's
t noblemen. "An honest man is the
[ noblest work of God," lie was
honest, upright, faithful in all the
walks of life. As a friend and neigh 1
bor he was loyal. As an official of
! his county or of a corporation, he
was faithful and efficient; so care[
ful and painstaking that it was not
, | difficult to take up the work, where
I he left it. As a husband ho was
, kind, thoughtful, loving; providing
well for his family. As a father,
he was tender, affectionate and devoted.
As a Christian, ho was true
to Ills profession; loved his own
,1 church and was ready for every
good word and work, which had in
\ view the advancement of his Savior's
j kingdom.
( | As a Mason?ho ever met his
, brethren on the level; his deeds
} would stand the test of the plumbline:
his works would pass the
[ overseer's square: his humility and
. | hospitality proved him a loval
' Knight. His lal>ors of the craft
will not soon bo forgotten. He was
a Frater beloved.
Sir Knight, thou has left us; thy
seat is vacant; thy work is done;
no more will we grasp thyhanl;
look into thy kind face, or hear thy
j words of cheer. Farewell! When
our work is done; when we have
run our race won our victory, we
; hope to greet thee in the asylum
above, where, with thee, we shall
rest from our works and enjoy forever
that peace which passeth knowl" .
edge. i
Resolved. That the above tribute
be inscribed in our minute book and
a page be dedicated to his memory.
That a copy Ihj furnished Spartanburg
and Union papers. That a
copy suitably engrossed he sent his !
daughter.
Respectfully submitted,

^ A Good Days Work.

- good days work, we have been callr?
ing the attention of the city polio
" to this nuisance for some time and
wc were glad to see the string of

>f this offense. We hope this good
a start will result in giving p oplo a
