SUPREME COURT DECISION.
A Glenn County Lawsuit to Quiet Title
tn Land.

A Glenn County Lawsuit to Quiet Title
to Land.
The Supreme Court has decided the
case of Fred. Quint, plaintiff and appel
liant, vs. John McMullin, defendant and
respondent, Glenn County case to quiet
title.
The defendants answer denied that he
had any interest in the land in question
except a certificate of sale for taxes in the
irrigation district. The court found that
defendant was entitled to his costs, and
plaintiff appealed.
The Supreme Court held that plaintiff
had proper appeal and that he was en-
titled to judgment without any reserva-
alton. It therefore reversed the judg-
ment and remanded the case.

Death Of Mrs. Nancy Pool.

Mrs. Nancy Pool, wife of Mr.. J. P.
Pool, died at their home in Newberry
on January 5th, 1894.
She was born in Newberry County
January 22ud, 1922. She was married
to Mr.. ]. P. Pool November 2, 1887.
Became a member of Reedy River Bap-
tist church in Greenville County in
1912. At the time of her marriage Mr..
Pool was living in Greenville and they
resided there until the year 1856, when
they moved to Newberry, where they
have since resided. She celebrated her
Golden wedding on the End of Novem-
Der, 1887.
Mrs. Pool was a most excellent wo-
man, beloved by every one who knew
her. She was true wife, q kind and
indulgent mother, and good friend to
the poor. Many were the deeds OF
kindness done by her, and many there
will be who will miss her charity.
To the grief stricken husband The
Herald and News extends its tenderest
sympathy.
She was the mother of eight chill
dren, six daughters and two sons: Mrs.
Prince, Mr.. Carter Pool, Mrs. Blodgett,
Mrs. Chase, Mr.. Tench G. Pool, Miss
Genie Pool, Mrs. Schumpert, Miss Lula
Pool. Only three Of them are living:
Mrs. Chase, Mr.. T. c. Pool, and Mrs.
o. L. Schumpert. The others have
preceded her to the spirit world. All OF
her living children were with her In her
last hours. On Saturday afternoon her
remains were laid to rest in Rosemont
Cemetery to await the resurrection OF
the righteous.
The Newberry herald and news. (Newberry, S.C.) 1884-1903, 1894-01-10

In addition to the present double
daily service between the East and
Florida via. the Atlantic Coast Line,
this line, commencing January 10th,
1894, will run it's celebrated New York
and Florida special daily except Sun
day, leaving New York at the conve-
nient hour Of of 1910 noon and run
ming solid through to st. Augustine,
arriving there the following day in
time for dinner. This will be only one
night out.
This train is composed exclusively of
three Pullman palace sleeping cars,
dining car, observation and library car,
vestibule throughout, lighted by elec-
tricity and heated by steam, and is the
only train of its kind running between
the East and Florida. Another i'm
portant item of interest to travellers is
that 10 extra fare will be charged on
this train, the expense of the trip being
no greater on this superb train than in
Pullman cars on ordinary trains
Wilmington Messenger, Dec. 2d, 1893.
Mr.. Livingston, agent, Newberry,
will be glad to furnish information to
any one contemplating a trip to Florida
or the North.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products 10
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced IN the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax
ative; efectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t mas given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in soc and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig SyruE
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

Notes from Excelsior.

The new year has found good many
of the colored folks around here with
new homes. Still some moving going
on.
Ifyou have made yourself any good
promises for the new year be careful
not to break them or even get them
soiled.
Prof. Wheeler is now paliDg in his
new lot and garden and when COM
pleted will add much to the convent
ence of bis place.
Rev. McMorries filled his regular
appointment in ths School house on
Sunday afternoon.
Mr.. G. B. Cook is spending several
days in Columbia.
Miss JAMIE Kina,d has been spending
several days with relatives in st Luke's
community.
Miss Victoria Crosson and her two
little brothers, Messrs. Willie and
Horace, of Fredonia, are visiting rela-
tives and friends in the neighborhc od.
Misses Alma and Chelly Kibler have
BEEN on a visit to relatives in New
berry.
Miss Frances Miller has been visiting
her sister here.
Mr.. J. R. Watts is spending several
days at Harris Springs.
Mr.. Hanon KibIer has taken in new
boarder, a little voter.
Owing to the mild winter the grain
crop has very good appearance.
The young folks down here enjoyed
a new year social at Mr.. B. B. Schum-
perts' residence on last Monday night.
Excellent music was furnished on the
organ, violins and old Harp.
Some of brother Tillman's spies have
been peeping around the corner in this
community expecting to find a blind
tiger" some where. Brother Tillman
and his host of spies needn't expect for
every drop of whiskey used to be pulled
through the Dispensary at the present
prices charged. The people voted for
Prohibition but they didn't get it. The
writer don't use whiskey in any way
shape or form but if we must have the
Dispensary bar-rocm letit be to benefit
the whole people and not run for "a
money machine"
We are informed that Prosperity
will have Dispensary bar-room at an
early day. Prosperity has been classed
off as dry town for several years and
why should her citizens agree to estab-
lish Dispensary bar-room there now.
Of course Prosperity is 40 better than
Newberry but we see no good to be
derived from establishing Dispensary
bar-room in her midst at this time but
then money machine, should work
at any time and anywhere. These are
mighty queer times and guess we will
all have a Dispensary money machine
aftera while.
Mr.. G. S. Rikard informs US that
some person or persons went to his
residence on Sunday while they we're
away from home, broke light from the
dining room window, reached through
