Mr.. C. Wardlaw received telegram last
Monday calling him to Harmony Grove,
Ga., to the bedside Of his brother, Mr..
Hugh Wardlaw, who is quite sick with
pneumonia. Last week We chroncled the
death of his brother, Mr.. Jason Wardlaw,
and the week before the death Of the
latter's wife, both of whom died with
pneumonia. Mr.. Hugh Wardlaw, who is
quite young man, lives in Anderson but
went over to Harmony Grove to attend
his brothers funeral and look after his
farm and other property. He was soon
stricken down with the dreadful diseases
and it is feared will prove fatal. 1t is cer-
tainly sad atlliction to the family.
The Hartwell Sun of the Goth inst, says:
"On last Saturday afternoon as Mr.. James
Cardn, of South Carolina, was returning
home from Hartwell, his little boy some
ten or twelve years old. happened to
very painful accident. The boy was sit
ting in the back end of his wagon holding
| cow with rope, when suddenly the
COW pulled back and the little fellows fin
gers were caught between the rope and
! one of the cross pieces Of the wagon frame
cutting one of his fingers entirely off and
very nearly severing two others. The
boys suferings were intense, but it is
hoped that nothing no more serious than
the loss of a finger will result from the ac-
cident."
