Death has entered another happy home
in Anderson County and borne away q
good citizen in the person of Mr.. Jas. u.
Crenshaw, who died at his home in Gar.
vim Township last Saturday afternoon.
He was a remarkably hale and hearty
man, but few days ago was stricken
down with severe attack of dysentery,
and, despite all that loved ones could 40
for him, gradually grew worse until death
came to bis relief. Mr.. Crenshaw was
native of Pickens County, but had long
been citizen of Anderson County. lie
was most excellent man, and in every
relation of life discharged his duties well.
In early life he Joined the Baptist Church,
and was ever afterwards @ jealous and
faithful member. He leaves q wife and
several children to mourn his death, and
in their bereavement they have many
sympathizers. On Sunday his remains
were laid to rest in the Sharon Church
yard. Rev. Mr.. Weldon conducting the
funeral services.
The Milledgeville (Ga.) Chronicle Of last
Saturday, under the caption, wv. L.
Jackson, ESQ.," says: ut is with regret
that we part with the above named gen.
tleman. He has been in the active prac-
tice of law at this place for the past five
years, and was taking front position at
our bar, but on account Of a general fail
ure 10 his health, complicated with a
throat trouble, his physicians advised him
to retire from the practice. We are glad
to say that he is in or on the road to a
complete and permanent recovery. While
he has been successful practitioner at
the bar, he received q good business edu-
cation and will succeed at any kind of
business he may turn his attention to.
We commend him heartily to the good
people of Anderson, s. c., or any place
that he may decide to locate, as an honest,
moral and upright citizen, and one who
will make valuable citizen to any COM
munity. We learn that he contelnplates
going into the Brokerage business in his
new home. The Chronicle joins his hosts
of friends in wishing him an abundant
success, aud we see no reason, II energy,
pluck and enterprise will make it possible,
why it should not be 80. Mr.. Jackson
leaves for Anderson Monday morning.

Death is sad under any and all circum.
stances, but when it comes and lays its
icy grip upon husband and wife within a
few hours of each other, it is distressingly
sad. For the past two weeks Mr.. and Mrs.
A. J. Watt, who reside at Deans, have been
quite sick, having been attacked with a
severe form of dysentery. Last week the
attending physicians pronounced the
disease fatal, and every day the death of
both sufferers was expected. Last Mon
day morning Mrs. Watt quietly breathed
her last, and on Tuesday evening, just
after she had been laid away 10 the tomb,
Mr.. Watt was summoned, too, to his long
home. Mr. Watt was about 81 years Of
age and his good wife about 40. Both were
born and reared in this County, and have
o wide circle of friends who will long
cherish their memory. They were e1em
plary christians, and have gone to reap the
rewards of well spent lives. They leave
only one child, bright and interesting
little daughter.

An Interesting Occasion.


It is not often that larger audience is
assembled together in Anderson than that
which filed the Opera House last Friday
evening to witness the closing exercises Of
Miss l.. c. Hubbard's Home School.
There was scarcely standing room on
either floor, and many persons who de.
sired to enter were turned away for want
of room: Everybody seemed to be in
their happiest mood, and the bright, merry
faces of the boys and girls who were to
participate in the exercises showed that
there was no lack of interest in the occa.
sion. The program was a lengthy one,
but every part was carried out to perfec-
ton, showing that the pupils had under
gone thorough training and reflecting
great credit on their most excellent
teacher.

Since last friday night the weather has
been in very unsettled condition. From
every section of the County comes the
report that there has been big rainfall,
and in some sections the land has been
terribly washed and the crops badly dam
aged. Hail fell, too, in many sections,
and much damage resulted therefrom: In
the city on Saturday night we had the
most vivid display Of lightning, accom-
panied by the loudest roll Of thunder, ever
witnessed by our people. On Monday the
wind changed to the east, and since then
it has been cold and disagreeable.
