Joe Ruff Brought Back.

It will be remembered that some
time last year Joe Ruff, colored, broke
into Ward and Pearson'S store and was
arrested. Mr.. Thos. Neel went on his
bond but a few days before court Joe
pulled out for parts unknown. His
case wss tried in his absence and a
verdict of guilty rendered and sealed
sentence was left to await his return.
But Joe did not return. About a week
ago it was learned that Joe was ar
rested in Atlanta. Mr. Neel got Police
man Franklin to 90 over and bring Joe
back. He had 40 requlsition papers
au3@nad some little difficulty in getting
the Chief OF police Of Atlanta to let him
have the prisoner. Tie Chief OF At
lanta claimed that there was q reward
of 500 for Joe and he wanted the mo-
ney before he delivered the prisoner.
He had him mixed, possibly, with
Lang Bowers, for whom there is re-
ward of Sl0O. And finally Mr.. Frank
lin had to pay $23. Mr.. Franklin
reached home with his prisoner on
Sunday and Joe will have to wait N
Jail until court before he can know his
sentence.

last Saturday. This is the anniversary
of the date of the Company leaving for

been thirty-two years since they shoul-
dered their guns and went to fight for
the cause they believed to be right.
Many of their number were left upon
the battlefelds of Virginia and other
places, and many have gone to join their
friends since. Some of those who still
survive bear marks Of having been in
the thickest of the fray. OF the COM
pany there are still forty survivors,
many living in other States. There
were present at the meeting twenty-six,
being thoce living in this county most

ington, was present and made speech,
recounting many of the pleasant incl
dents of camp life. Mr.. Lever, of LEX
ington, was also present, and Mr.. ID.
H. Taylor came all the way from Beau
fort to be present at this meeting.
A SD: 2ch was, also, made by Captain
John F. Banks, the last Captain Of the
company.
Al organization OF the survivors Of
the company was effected four years
ago. One by one the survivors are pass-
ing over the river to join their comrades
on the other shore, and every meeting
since the organization some death has
been reported, except the one held last
Saturday. During the past year no
deaths have been reported.
The following officers were reelected
for another year, and in fact they were
the officers elected at the organization
four years ago: J. B. Fellers, President;
J. H. Counts, Vice-President; John F.
Banks, Secretary; J. M. Wheeler, Trea-
surer.
These meetings are pleasant and
profitable and it would be good idea
for other companies to form similar
organizations and in this way we can
collect and preserve the true history of
the greatest struggle of modern times.

best and most desirable currency we
have, with not a shadow of taint or

cost the government single dollar to
secure this large increase in its circula-
