Salesday in November is always lively
day In Anderson, and last Monday was no
exception to the rule. The streets were
crowded from early morn till after dark,
and everybody seemed to be cheerful and
in good humor. The horseswappers were
numerous. and many old rips exchanged
throughout the day. Considerable real
estate was sold at public outcry and
brought good prices. One hundred acres.
in Rock Mills Township, to ]. g. Gun
ningham for $500. Two hundred and for
ty.six acres, In the Piercetown section, to
Miss Lizzie Williams for $4,000. The
storeroom on south side of the Court
House Square, occupied by O. F. Jones q
Co. as clothing store, sold as the proper
ty Of the Brown Bros, was bid OFT by an
attorney representing some Of the creditors
at S., 900 An acre lot in the northern su-
burbs of the city, belonging to the estate
of Milton Lindsay. was bid off by j. l.
Tribble, Esq at $500. Nine tracts OF
land, sggregating total of 665 acres, be
longing to the estate of John Harper, was
bought by various persons at an average
price of more than $40 an acre.
A few days ago we had the pleasure of
yiewing large silver medal that was
presented to our good friend, Capt. Rob-
ert Junkin, Of this County, by the State
of South Carolina for his bravery and
many daring acts while serving his
country as q soldier in the war with
| Mexico. On one side of the medal ap-
pears the seal of our State, encircled with
| the names of Coils. Dickinson, Butler and
| GLADDEN., the field officers of the Palmetto
Regiment, with the dates lS46 and 1877
on the other side appears representa-
ton of the landing Of the Regiment at
Vera Cruz and the names Of the battles in
which it was engaged. Capt. Junkin
was sergeant of Co. E., which was COM
manded by the late Capt. j. Foster Mar
shall, of Abbeville, and was about q
years of age when he volunteered bis
services to his country. He says he
thinks there are now about fifty survi-
Yors of this grand old Regiment. OF
course, this medal is priced very highly
by its owner, who will doubtless hand it
| down to future generations of his family,
every mem Der Of which can always look
at it with pride. Capt. Junkin not only
was brave and jealous soldier In the
war with Mexico, but when South Caro-
| lima called for volunteers in 1860 he was
among the first to respond and again
manifested his great love for his State
and the principles Of the Confederacy by
serving throughout the war. And we
doubt il there was Drawer or more
faithful soldier in the whole army of the
Confederate government.

ing discussed.
During the discussion the gentlemen

their discussion, and all of the usual
