"V -> v ? Obituary.
Mrs. Charlotte C. Gregory died
on May (i, 1907, at the home of her
son-in-law, John 8. Going, having
suffered for eighteen months with
that dreadful disease, cancer. In
all of this affliction she was perfectly
resigned to the will of the Lord
and prayed to the last, "Oh, Lord,
Thy will be done and not mine."
And thus she passed away, as she
lived a Christian, a soul fitted for
Heaven.
The subject of this sketch was
Ixirn August 1841, in Bogansville
township, Union county, S. C.,
near Lower Fair Forest church, and
was nearing her sixty-sixth year
at the time of her death. She waH
a daughter of the late Rev. John
Gihbs, a Baptist minister of blessed
memory who jilso died of cancer.
Twenty-six years ago she joined the
j*ew i'rospect Baptist church near
Cross Keys in 18.r?7, under the
preaching of Rev. Carl us Felder
and later on joined I'utman church
by letter, of which she was a member
at the time of her death.
In Novemlwr 1850 she married
Cit Gregory, of Santuc, who in a
short time after went to the war.
He was a kind father and loving
husband. Only for a short time he
was permitted to l)e with them.
He left home for the last time,
when his bahy was only al>out
twelve hours old, never to see his
wife and children again, for he
died in the serviee of his country
just two days before Lee's surredder
at Appomattox Court House, Va.,
and was buried near Amelia Court
House, Va. When this sad news
reached his wife by returning soldiers
and friends after the surrender,
her young, heart was overwhelmed
with sorrow. Grave as
the situation was t.hi? vmino wwlrtw
and mother met the consequences
and raised her three girls with
honor and credit. .
These girls are married as follows:
Mrs. Katie Gilliam, of Goshen
Hill; Mrs. Sallie Going and Mrs.
- Susie Gregory, of Bogansvillc.
11 These three daughters and eleven
; '" grand children; two full sisters,
Mrs. J. H. Williams, of Glendale;
Mrs. Mar^ Reid, of Texas; and
two half sisters. Mrs. Gordon
Williams, of Union and Mrs. Belle
Meador, of Meador, and a host of
other relatives and friends, who
mourn the logs of our relative and
friend, who was always kind to the
sick and sympathizing with those
in distress.
She was buried at Putnam
church, the funereral services being
Conducted by her pastor, Rev. J.
11. Funderburk. The large congregotion
at the funeral and the many
loving bands that tenderly placed
tlowers on her grave showed that
she was held in loving remembrance;
and seeing this, I could
only wish that one so deserving
could have seen these tokens of love
in life, and these flowers put into!
her hands that she might behold |
their beauty and fragrance.
W$ mi?5? thee from our home, dear j
mother,
\Ve miss thee from thy plaee.
A shadow o'er our life is cast;
We miss the sunshine of thy face,
We miss thy kind and willing hand,
Thy fond and earnest care,
Our home is dark without thee,
We miss thee everywhere.
(This obituary and sketch has
been written by special request of
me by the decesed more than a
year before she died.)

j An Elopement. '
I
[Original.]
When u girl of eighteen Is in possession
of n fortune, she is very fortunate
if she does not become a target for , .
:<jiue person or persons desirous of re- '
Moving her of It. Bessie <Jrai>o had
been tenderly brought up until she was >
seventeen years old, when she had the
misfortune to lose her father uud
mother In rapid succession. Iler mother's
sister. Miss Barbour, a spluster of
forty, was called In to take charge of
the house and the young girl as well. |]
Tbe estate was administered by Arnold 0
Atwater, an attorney, also In middle p
life and unmarried. Mr. Crapo had t
conceived a bleb regard for Mr. Atwnter's
shrewdness and bad left blm sole v
executor of bis estate. !
A pretty girl and a couple of buwired v
tbousuiul dollars were too tempting a 1<
prize for Mr. Atwater's Integrity. Win- a
ning tbe confidence of Miss Harbour, n
lie succeeded In keeping tbe belress n ^
virtual prisoner wltli a view to prevent p
ber marrying?tlmt Is. uuless be could ^
succeed in marrying her blmself.
All tbls Is an old story. Tbe Interest '
in this yarn lies In an effort made by
young Hob Allison to get tbe maiden *
out of the bands of tbe designing nttor- g
ney. Bob and Bessie bad grown up to- s
getlier and bad plighted tbelr childish e
trotli long before either knew anytbiug p
about worldly goods. But Bob was to
be tbe architect of bis own fortune. _
and Mies Barbour, who. In ber present Q
position, was in better circumstances i
tkau she bad ever beeu before and bad 1
no wish to leave It. made the young | v
man's poverty a convenient excuse for | ^
opposing him. So it was Bob aud Bes- [ t
sle versus Atwater and liarbour. ! v
It did not lake the .young couple long o
to discover that there, was but one g
wuy to win, and that was to gain for a
Bob the legal control of Bessie, which
would also give him tbe control of her
fortune. To do tbls marriage was nec- 1
essary, and the only way to effect mar- c
rlage was an elo|?emeiit.
Now. in elopements It Is far easier
for tbe runaways to make a start than t
to avoid capture. Teverton, where t
these people lived, was a way station v
on a great railroad. Iu tbe eveut of
the girl being missed tbe first place t.
those desiring to capture ber would ^
look would l>e tbe Teverton ' station, p
Tbe exigencies of tbe ease required 8
that tbe couple should take to the p
turnpike. But bow? An automobile r
has for enterprises requiring swiftness c
taken the place of horses, and Bob In c
laving bis plans guvo tbe fact due p
AA..O
vvuoiuciiillUll. ?
One morning there was a sharp ring j(
at Mr. Atwater's telephone, and the x
crisp voice , of Miss Barbour Informed 0
him that Boh Allison had come to the {
house in an automohlle; Bessie had a
evidently been expecting him, for she _
was dressed for q ride: she had run ^
out ami jumped into the automobile ^
before she could be prevented, and
they had sped away at a furious pace. 0
This informatloh was communicated T
In a few fragments of sentences. At- fl
water threw down the receiver, seized ^
his hat and in two minutes was In an ^
automobile garage offering any amount t
for the use of the fastest machine In
the place. One was Immediately placed
at his disposal, and, proceeding to r
pick up Miss Barbour, he sped along r
In the direction she indicated. ^
Twice only he was obliged to slow ^
up before getting on to the main road f
to make Inquiries if an automobile had
gone that way; but, the answers "being j
definite and satisfactory, he was not j
obliged to ask again, for there was l
but one road iirthe vicinity on which ^
an automobile could make progress, j
that beside the railroad. j 8
Sundry vehicles were passed on the !
way, and all. hearing a ferocious snort- I ^
lug behind, pulled out to the side of j
the road. But one old trap of a station
hack Jogged along without paying any ^
attention to the coming clatter. Atwa- ,
ter was obliged to slow up, attempting ^
first to get by on one side, then on the
other, the hack driver taking up most
of the road. Atwater, who was of a {
suspicions nature, suspecting that the ^
man might l?e In league with the fugl- , (
tlves to delay him, threatened* to run \ f
him down If he did not get out of the j
way. This brought the driver to his i
senses, and he drew up on one side I

The delay was but slight, and, the < ^
power of the automobile lieiug tremen- ! (
dons, the pursuers forged ahead at the i ^
rate of forty miles an hour. Since '
there was no machine to l?e had at ; j
Teverton that could do better than t
thirty Atwater felt confident of sue- i j
cess. Indeed, In turning the next bend j
in the road he saw ahead a cloud of
dust that he knew concealed an automobile.
! t
It was a mad chase, a dangerous j
chase, but from the first it was evident (
that the automobile ahead was no j
match for the one behind. Every mile ^
passed by the former resulted in half j
a mile gain by the latter. The dust '
concealed the fugitives, but Atwater
had no doubt whatever that they were
there, for their machine was putting

In due time the fugitive machine
was overtaken, but what was the pursuers'
surprise to find In It no one but
a chauffeur.
After deliberation the twain returned
to the house to find Bob Allison at the
door. ?
"I'm the husband of the owner of
this property," he said, "and have no
use for either of you."
"For land sake!" exclaimed the aunt
"How did yon do It?"
"We were In the back you passed on

Strenuous Chivalry.
It is complained that modern condlous
are killing "the chivalry of the
liddle ages." Rut mediaeval tales
nd romances show what that chivalry
sunjr whs. wiie oeuung was a com- i
ion Incident on the part of those !
nights and gentlemen whose gallantry j
as a mere convention. The Chevalier
e la Tour-Landry In his book of coun- 1
els to his daughters tells them the
tory of a woman who used to eoutru- i
let her husband in public. One day, j
fter expostulating in vain, he knock- ;
1 her down, then kicked her face aud
roke her nose. "And so," comments
le good chevalier, "she was dlstigred
for life, und thus, through her ill
ehavior and bad temper, she had her
ose spoiled, which was a great uaia-.
>rtune to her." Hut not a word is said
bout the husband's brutality.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith in its
curative powers that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials.
