In MemOrianl.

Mrs. Cynthia, the beloved wife of
Mr.. John Indy. departed this life at
her home, in West Union, on the morn
ing of the 18th instant, in the SD year of
her age. She was native of Laurens
county. and about four months ago moved
into this county. In early life she united
herself with the Rabun Creek Baptist
church, in Laurens county, of which
church she remained consistent men,
Der. For tllirty-tive years she followed
Christ. and those who knew her best say
that her life was luminous commentary
upon the profession which she made.
She suffered a great deal before her death.
a part of the time she could not lie
down. and what little sleep she enjoyed
was obtained while she was prOpped up
in bed. She did not complain or muir
mur, but bore it all patiently. The day
before she died she called her children
to her bed side and spoke lovingly and
tenderly to them. telling them she was
happy and resigned. She was sustained
and comforted by her Saviour in this
moment of great need and passed away
singing the triumphs of redeeming grace.
We laid her to rest on Tuesday (after
preaching her funeral sermon) in the
quiet grave yard connected with the
Bethel Presbyterian church, to await the
resurrection morn. Our sister was twice
married, her latter husband surviving.
Many relatives and friends mourn her
loss. Death to her was gain. She is
absent from the body only to be present
with the Lord. God bless and comfort
the bereaved. r. w. SEYMOUR.

The Teachers Column.

In this issue Prof J. W. Gaines, of the
Westminster High School, has assumed
editorial management of column on our
first page. known as the Teachers Col
umn." Prof Gaines is wide-awake
teacher. and. in his endeavor to make
this column what it ought to be, he in
vites the earnest support and co-opera-
ton of all the teachers in Oconee county.
Teaching is no longer mere pastime
for drones and laggards, but a high, ex-
acting and honorable profession. The
condition precedent to all successful
teaching is thorough preparation. The
purpose of Prof Gaines and those who
assist him in the conduct of this column
is to stimulate a desire for still more
thorough preparation. and then to render
mutual help by free discussion of the
means for achieving the best results.
This column should be one of great
interest and attraction to every teacher
in the county, and then as 4 recompense
for the good received, let each and every
one feel free to furnish Prof. Gaines an
article on The experiences of the school
room during the year now drawing to a
close. Read and write to the end that
YOU may the better teach.

A Horse Thief from Georgia.

TowNv1LLE, April 10.-Frank Tins, a
Georgia horse thief, was captured here
on Friday morning. He came here On
Thursday morning riding good mule,
which lie sold for twenty-five dollars. He
had stolen the mule from Mr.. James
Prather. on the head waters of the Savan-
nah. in Habersham county, Ga. Mr..
Prather was in close pursuit all the way
and caught the thief as he started.
Our people have been agitated for
some time on the subject of holiness, and
so intense is the feeling that schisms ID
the several churches are likely to result.
The Rev. T. c. Ligcn, pastor of the
Presbyterian church, is attending the
spring meeting of the South Carolina

Westminster Dots.

WESTMINSTER, S. c., April is, 1898.
DEAR COURIER: The Westminster
Lodge Knights of Honor, No. 3,345, is
represented at the annual meeting of the
Grand Lodge at Orangeburg this week
by Mr.. W. P. Anderson. he went down
on Monday.
At the regular meeting of the West
minister Lodge l. o. G. T., No. III, on
Monday night last, the following new
officers were elected to serve for the
ensuing quarter, beginning April 30th:
Col R. E. Mason, Chief Templar: Miss
Bessie Zimmerman, Vice Chief Templar;
Rev. W. w. Leathers, Past Chief Tenn
plar; J. B. Sanders, Chaplain; Miss Paul
inc Mason, Superintendent Juvenile Tenn
plars; Jabez Jones, Secretary: W. L.
England, Financial Secretary; Mrs. Lila
England, Treasurer; G. Blackwell, Mar
shall: B. NJ. England, Guard; Walter Zim-
norman, Sentinel. The Secretary and
Marshal were requested to choose their
assistants by the next meeting. The
attendance the past quarter has been
very small. About half the members
have not been present since the lodge
was organized. The meetings are held
serti-monthly, on Monday night after the
first and third Sundays.
A new location has been surveyed on
the public road leading from here to
Jarrett's bridge, on Tugaloo river. The
bridge over Chauga, at Capt. R. A. Gil
mer's, is unsafe and new one is to be
built. The County Commissioners found
they could save several hundred dollars
by building it about one-half mile above
where it now is, and put the road on bet
ter ground and make the distance much
shorter. The new route will leave the
present route short distance West of
Hopewell Methodist church and will
intersect again about one-half mile West
of Gilmer's mill. The Commissioners
say the bridge on that route will not cost
over 500.
Rev. W. W. Leathers preached two able
sermons in the Baptist church last Sun
day morning and night. He also preached
at Mt. Tabor, several miles below here,
in the afternoon. Rev. Leathers certainly
does a large amount of ministerial work.
Mr.. S. T. Marett has opened up stock
of goods in Col. Mason brick store-room
in rear of the bank. Mr.. Marett will cen
tinue to travel on the road and the store
will be managed by his brother, Mr.. G.
W. Marett.
Mr.. Claude Little, Westminster cham
pion base ball pitcher, visited his former
home at Harmony Grove, Ca, this week.
About twenty-five of Westminster S
citizens took in Clemson College at Fort
Hill last Saturday. The railroad officials
sold reduced round trip tickets. They
all report pleasant time.
Mrs. w. NJ. Gossett is on a weeks visit
to relatives and friends in Pickens and
Greenville counties.
Miss Florence Norris, who has been
teaching school in Anderson county the
past six months. has returned home, to
the delight of her many friends.
DR.. j. w. Quillian had the misfortune
to lose his valuable mich COW this week.

CONNEROSS.
For the Keowee Courier ]

The question has frequently occurred
to me, Shall we let all the beautiful
legends which the Indians left US utterly
perish? No portion of the State is richer,
perhaps, in Indian legends and traditions
than Pickens and Oconee counties. Why
may not many of them be rescued from
oblivion before it is too late?
There is an interesting legend con-
nected with the Conneross creek. The
name Conneross is an English corruption
of the Cherokee word Kapanarosu, which
signifies "At the duck track" The name
refers to local legend relative to fabu-
lous duck. Do any of the old citizens OF
Oconee remember ever to have heard the
legend? If SO, why not write it up for
the COURIER? I sincerely wish it was in
my power to produce it.
Oconee was not ''named after the Oco-
nies'' Enormously translated Brown
Vipers'), ''a minor tribe of the Chero-
KEGS, who formerly lived in the territory
embraced by the county," as some his
torians have stated. but the word Oconee
signifies cat the head Of the water
courses" It's from the Cherokee loca-
tive ending /, generally written &c in the
translation of Cherokee words into the
English tongue, and ooka, water.
have succeeded III obtaining the mean
ing of nearly all of the Indian names in
our State. Oconee abounds in beautiful
Cherokee place names, and l am salts
fed, from the meaning of many of them,
that the legends connected with place
names in Oconee county alone would
make an interesting volume if they could
be rescued from the devouring jaws of
the past. To save them, if possible, from
utter oblivion is duty that the present
generation owes to those who shall come
after us. If you, gentle reader, know
legend, write it for your county paper
or tell it to some one who will.
l beg pardon, Mr.. Editor, for trespass-
ing on your valuable space-I mean the
columns of your paper. 1 have many
pleasant recollections OF the years spent
in Walhalla, of the beautiful blue noun
tains, salubricus atmosphere, students
frolics," and most of all, of the kind
Fourteen years have passed
away since the old college bell called me
to recitation in the old building which
lies in ashes, but it seems but as yester-
day when l walked your streets.
May your paper and the town be
crowned with prosperity.

CATHARINE PARK.

At a meeting of the young men, held
at Reid's Hall Tuesday night, April Is,
ssThe Walhalla Park Construction Com
pany" was organized with twenty MEM
bers. The object is to build and main
tair City Park on College Hill.
The following officers were elected: c..
S. Reid, President; B. R. Moss, Vice
President; James Thompson, Treasurer;
George Seaborn, Secretary.
A committee Of six, consisting of c. S.
Reid, E. L. Herndon, J. R. Kay, J. A.
Steck, E. R. Kay and James Thompson,
was elected to superintend the building
of the park.
A financial committee of three mem
bers, consisting of E. R. Kay, George
Seaborn and F. A Fl. Schroeder, was
elected to solicit financial aid from the
citizens of the town.
C. S. Reid, E. L. Herndon and James
Thompson were appointed on commit
tee to confer with the Town Council and
invite their cooperation and assistance.
The members of the company are young
men with pluck and energy. They will
leave no stone unturned to give the citi-
zens something to be highly appreciated,
besides fl, nishing nice place for visit
ors and others to spend the long summer
days.
The composition of the committees
and officers of the company constitute
guarantee that the work done will be
first-class. These young men have been
tried before and never found wanting.
If they can receive the hearty support
and cooperation of the citizens of the
town, they will soon transform the brow
of College Eill into beautiful and en-
ticing pleasure ground. "Catharine
Park" is to be its name, in honor of the
memory of one of Walhalla's sainted
women. who, living, ever had the best
interest of the town at heart.
Help from all is earnestly solicited. 1t
is understood that the ladies, too, will
lend their influence to further the enter
prise. A nucleus Of $6C has been donated
to the fund by the Walhalla Comedy
Company. This is good beginning.
Donations from the citizens will doubt
less swell the SUM to some $500, and
Catharine Park may be written down as
one of the attractions of Walhalla.

The sentiment is increasing about ex-
