The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1892-04-07

Our old friend. Mr. Ebenezer Ashley, ol
Martin Township, is one of the Oldest sub
scribers the IHTELLIGENCER has on its
list. He is now in his Goth year, and is
re- narkably bale and hearty. He is run.
n.ng his farm, and can do any sort OF
work. Mr.. Ashley is a brother of the late
Rev. Wilson Ashley, and was born in Ma
ryland. When he was boy his parents
settled in Abbeville County, near the line.
and he has always resided in and around
that section. He is one of our most up
right citizens.
We will again recommend "Sherp's
Photographs" to the public. We can, in
all candor, say that it is the finest work OF
its kind in the world. We in all our ex-
perieuce, have never seen its equal. 1t
will be work that will always occupy an
important place in any one's household.
Mr.. A G. Means, a merchant of Ander-
son, has one, and says shat he would not
take five times the price be gave for it. y
The work is all that IS claimed for it and
ten times more, and any one that secures
it will never regret it. and the last but not
least reason why We urge the public to at
once avail themselves of this last Oppor
tudity, is because the publishers are going
to soon destroy the plates, and no more
will he issued.
President Strobe, of Clemson College, in
a communication to the Cotton Plant, says !:
Il will mention another matter that may
be of interest to the farmers Of the State,
and which has been proposed to the Board
of Trustees and been favorab!y received.
I would like to know how many young
farmers of the State would take an inter-
oct it,o pf1r m
of u month or two to receive instruction
In practical and scientific farming. This
session, if held, would be confined to those
over 81 years of age. There would be no
charge for tuition and the charge for board
will be only what might be found to be
the actual cost. I would like to receive
letters from those feeling an interest in
this suggestion, mentioning the length Of
session preferred in weeks from four to
eight"
The Atlanta Constitution, Of last Sstur-
day, says: "Three months ago, George
Crawford, young negro, killed man for
whom he had been working at Anderson,
8. @. He escaped, and despite the vigor-
GUS search, has been at large since. Sew
eral weeks ago reward of 5000 was Of
fered for his arrest. Yesterday afternoon
Patrollman Mahafey found Crawford on
Decatur street in company with another
negro. When told that he was under ar
he quietly submitted and came to po-
charge i . stoutly denied his guilt, and for
while it was thought that the wrong
man had been arrested. Last night how
ever, Crawford gave ia and confessed
everything, but declared that the killing
was in self defense. The Sheriff at An
defson has been telegrsphed, and the ne
gro will go back in the custody of an Off
Ger to. day or tomorrow" Gov. Tillman
issued requisition for Crawford, and
Deputy Sheriff Green left Wednesday for
Atlanta and will bring him to Anderson
Friday. Crawford. it will be remembered,
killed negro on Mrs. Lucy Caters place,
in this city, last November.
A correspondent of the Gainesville (Ga
Eagle, writing from Rome, Ca, says:
s'But few people who have once made
their homes in Gainesville are more
thought of and more kindly remembered
than Rev. A. A. Marshall, who resides
thirteen miles north of this city. Two
weeks ago to day had the pleasuro-ef
day I never spent. Beauty is not the only

ience and comfort are displayed in every
improvement, for he has made it model
home, and if many others who have coun.
try places would initiate him, country
home life would soon become more at
tractiye. I am glad to feel that there is
nothing could ssy to the readers Of the
Eagle that would be moro gladly read
than that Mr.. Marshall's haalth is so much
improved that he is now almost entirely
well, and he informs nee thathe has never
been happier than he s at present. His
sister, Miss Matte, is living with him,
and his children are all doing nicely"
The many friends of Mr.. Marshall in An
derson will, We know. read the above par
agraph with great pleasure aud will re-
joice to hear that he has about regained
his health.
