Editor Press and Banner:
At an early hour last Thursday, in company
with Judge Lyon, and comfortably seated be-.
hind one Of Hills best trotters, we were en-
route for Mt. Carmel, where, after O pleasant
drive, we found ourselves safely landed under
the "big oak tree" whose wide spreading
shade afforded cool retreat for the weary
traveller.
About O'Clock crowds of people were gath
ering in from every quarter, anxious to see
and hear the candidates who would ventilate
the political issues Of the day, and perhaps
some we're more anxious to see the political
pot simmered down (as it was there) to a
"big pot OF hash."
At II O'Clock the crowd numbering, we sup
pose, about five hundred, gathered in the
grove and as the day was fine, many fair la
dies honored the occasion by their presence.
Mr.. VIM. Riley, as chairman, introduced the

After dinner the order of the mornings pro-

To your correspondent the day was one of
extreme pleasure, as after years absence he
met many friends who gave him hearty
shake OF the hand, and a most cordial well
come. We feel oursef indebted to several
friends for courtesies extended, but especially
to Mr. Mittle Paschal who kindly looked after
the wants Of the inner man.

FURTHEs POINTS FROM N1NETY-sIX.
Let the Records OF History Square
with the facts.

Editor Press and Banner:
In the Historical" sketches in Ninety-SiX,
"Justice" mot Intentionally made some mis-
takes that ought to be corrected. To wit:
DR.. T. S. Blake, Uncle Jack Walker, and j.
w. Fouche, were the first settlers In Ninety
Six. DR.. Blake now lives about half way be-
tween New and Old Nlnety.Six. J. w. Fou-
che is the only one Of the original settlers liv.
Ing in the town now.
DIR. Blake and his brother were the first mer-
chants. Nimrod Steward, merchant In "Cow
Grove moved TO Ninety Six and did business
up to the war.
Capt. George Anderson, OF Waterloo, I.au-
rens County, with his son. DIR. w. l.. Ander-
son, were the next merchants. Dr. T.S, Blake
sold his mercantile interest 10 q. w. Calhoun,
afterwards Mr.. q. w. Calhoun bought out his
partner, Mr.. 5. Blake.
q. w. Calhoun did not live but short time
after his purchase. J. w. fouchc and John b.
Sample bought the Calhoun Store House, lot
and stock of goods. That was in the year
1851.
Elihu Campbell lived in the McCIeland
house, not log cabin, but frame building.
Rev. B. F. COrlcy lived in the SEerrard
house. McCleland sold his land in and
around Ninety.SiX for ten (slW dollars per
acre.
DR.. John Hollands father was q carpenter,
and did not live at DR.. Stuarts place. Robert
Cheathan was the first, In my recollection,
that lived there. Dr. John Holland was born
! u Charleston, graduated in medicine, moved
10 this section, and did large practice. He

THE WORK GOES BRAVELY ON.
The Tracklayers Coming to Able.
vilIe-..The G., c. e. n. Will be Here
After IN WhtIa

The depot for the G., c. & N. Road is being
put up on the side OF the street leading to the
Blue HILL The lumber for the trestles has
been received. and preparations have been
made for driving the piles in the branch below
the Episcopal cemetery.
The tracl<laying was suspended at or
near Evans Mill for about a week, in conse-
quence OF catching up" with the grading
force.
The way is now clear, and tracklaying will
proceed to Long Cane.
Tho putting In of the bridge will cause anoth-
er delay OF two or three weeks. The trestle at
that place is about ready for the iron. 1t Is
about one thousand feet in length. and varies
in height all the way up to forty-ive feet.
We have not heard whether the cars have
yet reached Clinton, but we presume they
must be thereabouts by this time. When
they get to Clinton they will then be eighteen
miles from Saluda river.
The iron has been laid on this side Of Green
wood to section one hundred and tWcnty-four.
Section one hundred and thirty.two ends In
town on the "fll" across the tan yard branch
in Penney's field-or two or three hundred
yards from the Abbeville depot.
The timbers are being laid down on the
ground at the various places for trestles, and
In good time this work will be finished.
We may expect the cars to Abbeville about
the fifteenth OF October.
The grading about Abbeville seems TO be
about finished.
Mr.. Gibbons Is side d!tching his contract,
preparatory to turning 1t over 10 the road.
He will likely finish Ia two weeks.
