James Mwhite was born in spartanburg Dis
trict, South Carolina, March 20, 1920.
In early life he moved and located near Rome
Ga where he became acquainted and was unit
ed in matrimony in 1870 to Miss Florida Miller
who survives him. who has always been the de-
voted companion, the loving christian mother
during 80 years OF married life Thirteen chill
dren were born unto them; SIX are living that
mourn the irreparable loss Of kind and affee-
tionate father In 1856 he immigrated to Ark

where he lived until 1872 when he moved to Rus
seliyille, and in connection with a son engaged
in the mercantile business, and had since resided
here until his deceasc which occurred on his I'D
birthday.
Father White was good citizen, always in
terestcd in his country's welfare, true to hef
every interest, helpful friend to church and
school, always true TO his convictions Of what
was right. BY means OF his industry and enter

Order of the day, corn planting.
Luther Frank and g. Bowden of
Center Point, who are running a gin
and grist mill, met with misfortune
on last Saturday, sparks from the
engine set the mill on fire which
was soon consumed by flames. A
small amount of cotton also was
burned Mr.. Bowden burned his
hands severely by trying to exiting
uish the fire.
The Literary Society organized
here last fall has been running in a
prosperous condition until a few
nights back, when couple of pu-
gillists, one from Bakers Creek and
one from this point engaged in a
few rounds without gloves. No
bones broken, and the cost and
trimmings far exceeded the gate
receipts. 1t was thought this would
break up our society, but it has
been recognized and is prosper

forty pupils, under the supervision

New Candidates.

The announcement of Hon. w. l..
Terry as a candidate for congress
from this district appears to-day.
Mr.. Terry is serving his first term
in congress and few young members
have been so successful in gaining
an influence in that body. He has
introduced number of important
bills and champions them with the
tact and energy of an old member.
He comes before the people on the
record he has made and promises ac-
quiescence in their decision.
Mr.. John w. White of Wilson
township announces his candidacy
for sheriff in this issue. Born and
raised in this county Mr.. White is
so well known to all our people that
an introduction at our hands is SUI
perfluous. He was deputy sheriff
during the administrations of Sheriffs
Quinn and Young, and made good
official. If he should be selected by
the people to serve in the capacity of
sheriff they will have in him fear
less and efficient officer.
A new Richmond enters the race
for assessor this week in the person
of w. M. Bell of Gala Rock town
ship. Mr.. Bell stands deservedly
high in the estimation of all who
know him, and possesses the quail
fications to fill the office to which he
aspires with credit. He is staunch
democrat, and like the rest, he
leaves his candidacy in the hands of
his party, willing to cheerfully abide
their decision.
