It is with the profoundest sorrow that
we learn Of the death of Mrs. Selma
McGregor, Of Anderson, S. c.. which
occurred last week. Mrs. McGregor was
the second daughter of Maj. E.J. Earle,
OF this vicinity, and was most excel
lent woman of both head and heart. We
have known her from childhood, and feel
that we would be recreant to our duty
did we not express our respect and drop
a few feeble thoughts to her memory.
In her girlhood she embraced Christianity
and Joined the Church at Shiloh, and by
her meek and Christ-like demeanor ever
afterward exemplifed her Savior. In
the bloom of womanhood she was united
in marriage to Mr.. W. T. McGregor and
proved a worthy helpmeet until her
maker saw fit to call her home. Among
the many strange workings Of provi-
dence, we have thought the strangest OF
them all is why should the young wife
and mother, just starting on life's Yoy-
age, to be called from her sphere Of duty
here in training her children for the life
to come, and giving words Of counsel to
those daily in contact with her here.
"But every cloud has silver lining"
Behind frowning providence our sa-
viour hides a smiling face. We see

will come when we shall see face to face
and know as we are known. To the
bereaved husband and six little children,
the aged father, brothers and sisters, we
tender our deepest sympathy. If we
who are left behind but emulate her vir-
tues we will some sweet day strike hands
with her in that city, whose builder and
maker is Cod. The funeral was conduct
ed at Mountain Creek Church by Rev.
M. MCGEE, who few years before off,
ciated at her baptism and her marriage.
Gently the passing spirit fled,
Sustained by grace divine;
Oh, may such grace on US be shed,
And make our end like thine.
Joyful, with all the strength I have
My q1ivering lips should sing,
Where is thy boasted victory grave,
And where oh death thy stinga
Mrs. Polly Hewin died at the residence

week. Indeed, it was expected by Register
Of Wills McGin that the alleged will would
be offered for probate today. Up to a late
hour this afternoon the document. how
ever. had not been offered.

When the instrument is offered for pro-

the sum of $50.
When Stoner was brought before Judge
Bradley this afternoon his counsel, Mr.. T.

man to the Pennsylvania authorities, be-
authenticated in due form, and because 1t
was fatally defective, in falling to definitely
set out an offense.
Judge Bradley sustained the latter con-
tention of Stcner's counsel, holding that
the indictment failed to acquaint the ac-

committed by him. The judge therefore
refused to deliver Stoner over to the agent
of the state OF Pennsylvania, and he was
accordingly discharged from custody.
