DEAR SIRs:-
l beg herewith to add my name
to your list Of testimonials i'll praise
of your HENDRY BREAKER.
During an experience of 10 years
III the cultivation of cane on these
Islands ! can truthfully say, that
yours is the only pillow that / have
seen that will turn a furrow COM
! pletely over, under any conditions.
Another point wherein it ex-
GELS is, the shape of the mould
board is such that the pillow
will clean itself, not continually,
but say every 200 or 900 feet,
which obviates the necessity of
stopping the team; this makes
very favorable showing in the
course OF a days work.
! remain yours truly,
T.. Z. CoNANT.
Mr.. Conant tells in his letter
where time and money are saved
by using the Hendry Breaker.
The same may be said OF the
Hendry Double Mould Board
Plow; they are built on the la
bor-saving principle, and that
means money saving.

had about a mile to construct
over "Pahoehoc," where it was
nearly impossible to get a post
down, and found in this case
especially the clones Fence"
was great saving of labor.
There are places in this fence
where the posts are at least 7s
feet apart, and the space be-
tween filled with stays. There
is no sag to it, and it is as springy
as a wire mattress. | am con
fidcnt that it will turn any ordi-
nary stock. have some two
and a half miles more to con-
struct over a country where wild
cattle are very plentiful, and as
soon as it has undergone the best
there, will write you further.
II it will turn the stock on this
part OF the land, and | feel con.
fident it will, you can rest as
sured that 1t will turn most any,
thing, except lava flow.
Very truly yours,

HI MPTON'S DUEL
ON THE BATTLEFIELD At GETTYS-
BURG WITH Il FEDERAL SOLDIER
Who Was Trying to Capture Him-The Cen
eral Receives u Sabre Cut and Tries to
Shoot His Assailant.

In the breaking dawn of July 2, 1863, four
thousand cavalrymen sat in silence upon
their horses on the extreme left Of the con-
federate battle line at Gettysburg. The field
in their front was curtaned with a heavy
mist, as if kindly nature had sought to veil
the appalling traces of the tragedy there
enacted. 1t had been sOWn with shot and
bladed thick with steel on the previous af-
ternoon and the harvest of death was
gathered, lying in winrows along the CHASTITY
burrows that had been cut by the red
plowshare of war. The infantry line
stretched far away to the right and their
gray uniforms blending with the haZy at
mosphere gave them a very shadowy APP
pearance. Many of the regiments were in
deed but shadows of what they had been
at noon on the preceding day. Some were
in line without even one commissioned
officer, and others with but the normal
strength of single company For exam
pie as attested by the official record the
Twenty-sixth North Carolina entered the

none were captured, but eighty answered to

federate firing into our lines, [ determined

Colonel Hampton delivered the explana-
ton rendered by Major S. (for he rose to

knowed@ed it by letter, assuring Major s.
that it had given him great qualification,
and since be had received it he could only
regard the failure Of his pistol to fire with
a deep sense of gratitude to Him III whose
hands are the balance of life and death.
In reply to an inquiry to Hampton, Ma

rifieman was Frank Pearson; that he was
but nineteen years old At the time Of the
duel that the pistol hall had wounded him
q few inches above the wrist and that he
was mustered out of service at the close Of
the war as lieutenant. and was 9 successful
farmer living near Kalamazoo, Mich Sub
seGuent General Hampton received a letter
from Mr.. Pearson himself, in which he in

he was very sorry that he had wounded

Unto the quaint retreat
Where lives the voodoo doctor,
BY some esteemed sham
Yet I'll declare there's none elsewhere
So skilled DR.. Sam.
With claws of deviled crawffsh,
The juice OF the prickly prune,
And the quiverins dew
From Il yarb that grew
In the light of a midnight moon!
1 never should have known him
But for the colored folk
That here obtain
And ne'er i'll vain
That wizards arts inVoke;
For when the Eye that's Evil
Would him and hisn damn,
The negro's grief gets quick relief
OF Hoodoo Doctor Sam!
With the caul OF an alligator,
The plume Of an unborn loon,
And the poison Wrung
From 4 serpents tongue
By the light of midnight moon!
In all neurotic ailments
l hear that he eHceis,
And he inSures
Immediate cures
OF weird, uncanny spells;
TIE most unru!y patient
Gets docile as q lamb
And is freed from i'll by the potent skill
OF Hoodoo Doctor sam!
Feathers Of strangled chickens,
Moss from the dark lagoon,
And plasters wet
With spider-sWeat
In the light OF q midnight moon!
They say when nights are greWsome
And hours are. oh! SO late,
OLD Sam steals out
And hunts about
For charms that h0odoos hate.
That from the moaning II, er
And from the haunted glen
He silently brings what eerie things --
Give peace to hoodooed men
The tongue Of a piebald possum'
The tooth of senile coon,
The buzzard's breath that pants for death'
And the film that lies
On a lizards eyes
Meath the light OF a midnight moon!
