OF course, the trip could not have been
otherwise than pleasant. We dined with
that clever host, Mr.. J. J. Shirley, who
with his amiable wife are noted for their
generosity and hospitality. Mr.. Shirley
has one of the most charming homes i'll

country contiguous, like almost every other
section, has suffered severely from the
drouth, and the people are little despon-

we were informed, however, that the far

the farmers were not so deeply in debt.
We hope to have the pleasure of visiting
Honea Path again at some future day,
when we will have more time and can see
more Of her clever people.
