"reminiscences ofaNative Newberrian.

Fiity-four years ago to-day, the
writer was born, at or near = place
called Long Lane, in NewbeTy Dis
trict, S. C.. His father was then an
overseer, for Mrs. Nancy McMorris,
widow OF John McMorris-who were
the ancestors of the we'll known Nc
Morris family, whose influence doubt
less is felt to this day among the best
citizens of old Newberry. Overseeing
was a profession in those days, and it
proved fact, that q young man, start
ing in life who successfully directed
labor for another, in after years, man
aged his own affairs with success.
Many a man in the West, has not
been ashamed to tell, that he made the
first five thousand Of his fortune by
overseeing in the East.
The writer's father followed the busi-
ness for Il years-then came to Ten
pessee and settled where the little
village Palmetto is located. He served
in succession the following named
persons as overseer: Samuel Brown,
DR.. Atwood, John Fernandes, Mai.
Fred Nance, DR.. Mendenhall and
Judge j. B. O'Neal.
The Browns, Attwoods and Nances
and families. long and well known in
the history of Newberry.
Fernandes sold out and moved to
Alabama or Mississippi in 80 or 3G.
The writer's memory reaches back to
the Fernandes plantation two miles
from the Court House on the Lindsay's
bridge road. There had been a Mill
on Scott's Creek Just above where the
road crosses the creek and 4 Still house
on branch near by.
The writer remembers both the Mill
and Still house, which had not been
used for several years. The Mil was
abandoned on account OF complaint
being made that the damned aeater, was
detrimental to the health OF the town.
The writer when four years old
caught his first fish in the brancli near
the old Still house, and spent many
day afterwards angling i'll Scott's creek
Fernandes, built the old Brick hotel
in Newberry, which learn was burned
few years ago. / remember well the
hole in the ground where the brick was
made to build the house. EverS object
has history.

A Pleasant Letter.


The Rev. J. w. Humbert writes US
from Marion that like the rest OF his
brethren he knows not where his lot
will be cast next conference year, but
that he will trust the matter to the
Bishop, and sends us 50 to the HERALD ;
we trust this will have the effect of
sending him to good place. He says
that he has had pleasant year, with a
measure of success in his work. Mrs.
Humbert is busy with her Missionary
and Temperance work. Marion has
gone for 'sNo License" and so has
Orangeburg; and he wants to know
about Newberrv? What grand and
glorious victory to have ''No License
