Memorial Day 10th of May is approach.
ing. Our citizens used to observe the day
appropriately, but of late years ii has been
neglected. There are quite a number Of
Confederate soldiers buried in our city GEM
eteries. Why not revive the old custom
Of decorating their graves OIL Memorial
Day? We know if the matter is brought
to the attention Of the ladies, the graves
will be decorated. We suggest that the
ladies, in conjunction with the Palmetto
Riflemen. take some steps towards properly
observing the day.
The Greenwood Argus, of last week, con-
tained the following maj. b. F. Whitner,
Of Anderson, passed through Greenwood
last Saturday, en- route for home. The Ma
jor was just from series Of meetings i'll be-
half Of the Savannah Valley Railroad, in
AbbeviIle County. He reports good results
at LowndesviIle and other points. Build
the Railroad by all means, is what we say.
Major Whitner spent several hours in our
office, and it gave us much pleasure to meet
him. He is q typical Carolinan, genial,
courteous and full of public spirit. An

We heard good joke on = citizen of
Rock Mills township last week. Two gen.
tlemen of that township left their saw mill,
some distance from home, late on Saturday
evening. 1t had been raining all evening,
and the small streams were out of their
banks. The gentlemen attempted to cross
one, hut could not find the log, it being
very dark. They pulled off their shoes,
and waded across. One Of them, however.
after padding about in the water for
awhile, instead of reaching the opposite
bank pulled out on the same side he started
from, and could not be convinced for some
time time that he was wrong. He saw his
mistake after awhile, and tried hard to
make his friend believe that he knew he
was wrong all the time, but his friend could
not see It that way.
Mrs. T. B. Palmer, who resides in the
Fork township. was attacked by mad dog
in her yard on last riday morning and Sc
verely bitten. Our informant states that
Mr.. Palmer, the lady's husband, was cut
ting barley near the house. and first noticed
the dog in the lot, where it had attacked
colt. Mr.. Palmer saw at once that the dog
acted very strangely, and called to his wife
to get the children out of the yard into the
house. Before she could do this, however,
the dog came into the yard. and, seeing Mrs.
Palmer, Immediately attacked her, throw
ing her down and biting her very severely
in the side, just above the hip. lacerating
the fesh considerably. Mr.. Palmer ran to
his wife's rescue but he had to kill the dog
before he could make it loose It's second
hold upon the unfortunate lady's person.
Mrs. Palmer, besides being severely bitten,
received several painful bruises, and would
probably have met most horrible death
but for the timely assistance OF her hus'
band. At last accounts she was doing is
we'll ns could be expected. We trust that
her injuries will not prove serious.
