door, laid his crutches IN each side OF linn,
and the day being WARM, took oil his hat
and laid it on his knee.
Just then one of the clerks happened to

Governor Perry OF south Carolina.

The recent speech of the newly appoint
ed Governor of South Carolina, Benjamin
F. Perry, of South Carolina, has brought
him into uuenvisble prominence, and a
brief sketch of his life will not be unin-
tsresting. He is decendei from the same
Massachusetts family which produced Oil
yer H. Perry, and his father was q Assss-
obusetts officer in the Revolutionary war,
hut removed to Charleston, where BeDjs-
min F. Perry was born. He attended
scbool in the same vicinity until seventeen
wears of age. Ia 1924 he entered the law
Office of Judge Earle, but finished his law
studies in the office of Colonel Gregg, Of
Columbia, and was admitted to the bar in
1897. During the memorable notification
contest of 1882 Mr.. Perry edited a news
pspsr in GreeDviIle, opposing the nullihca.
tion doctrines of Calhoun with much ability
and great persistence. Among other in
tsresting arguments which he was forced
70 deliyer. was q bullet in the heart of q
notification editor who had challenged
him and with whom the mistaken prinei-
ples of chivslry compelled Perry 70 fight 8
duel. He wss a delegate to the Union
convention which assembled st Columbia
in August 1882. In 1884 he was defeated
bv a msiority of sixty votes only as the
Union candidate for Congress from the
Anderson, Piekens and Greenville dis
t-;cts. For the two years following this
defsst be devoved himself to the law. In
1895 he was elected TO the State Legisls-
ture without opposition, and in 1888 was
AGAIN returned. While holding this office
the second time, he became prominent with
Meuminger, lately rebel Secretary of the
Treasury, in closing NJ the connection be.
tween the State and the banks which had
eristed. In 1874 he was elected TO tie
STATE Senate. he was the only member Of
that body who voted against the expulsion
f-om the State Of Mr.. Hosr, the Massschu-
salts State Agent. Il is noteworthy that
Nemminger was the only member Of the
lower house who voted sgainst the same
resolution. In 1850. when the disunion
feeling again rose high, Mr.. Perry estab-
lisbed 8 Union paper at G%reenvilie, and
unanswered in its publication, though ct
crest personal risk. Since that time we
ere not familiar with his history. He was,

Some time about the 1st of July q
stranger made his appearance in Bristol,
giving his name IS Francis, and protesting

Hpurchssing horses" BE hired 8 team,
drove out to plymouth, thence back to
Plsinville, and seemed to be poking about
in a vague snd uncertain wsy. One night
about one O'Clock some Of the good people
of Bristol we're alarmed on hearing agon-
lied shrieks IS of somebody in mortal sui
feriDg. The noise was traced to q spot IN
the road near the stockinet factory, where
there is an embankment, the sides Of which
slope down eight or ten feet from the road
so situated, however, that the spot was
never regarded as dangerous or as need
ing even q railing. The stranger was
found lying on his back and yelling dis
mAlly. He said he had broken his collar
bone, if not his back, and n or two OF
his ribs; but, strange to say, his horse and
wagon we're founI all right, the wagon not
even upset, and the horse all harnessed,
and quietly feeding. The man, with
many groans, was taken up and carried to
Mr.. s.. L. Roots house, where ne re-
manned a week, suffering greatly, and per-
fectly helpless. He was sure his collar
bone was broken, but d.. Way, who was
called daily to attend him, couldn't "see it"
He spit blood, from injuries sustained by
his lungs but the doctor insisted on exam
ming his mouth for the seat Of the injury,
he however discovered nothing. The suf
fsring stranger was removed to the hotel,
vhere he languished in torment for snOth
ar week, when he began to iuProTe and
gradually got so he could limp about the
