one else belongs the praise of originating
and carrying to a successful termination the
picnic cotton up for the members and friends
OF the Baptist society Sept. I'd on Carver's
shore, where about fifty-six people enjoyed
delightful day. Clam chowder, roast corn,
pies, cakes and doughnuts comprised the bill
of fare, and that the large company did full
justice to the good things need not be doubt
ed in the least. Every moment of the time
from the beginning to the end was greatly
enjoyed by every one and it was unanimous
ly declared to have been the best picnic ever
enjoyed by the society. AS the big jigger,
filled with joyous throng of the picnicers

the result of her exertions.
The chances of Mr.. P. G. Hunt, the Re
publican candidate for the Legis ature, of
carrying this place are very promising in
deed, notwithstanding it is naturally a Dem
oc ratio town. He is not only very popular
among the masses, but is held in high
esteem by men of all parties; hence his
numerous friends who differ from him polit-
ically will deem it pleasure to cast their
vote for so worthy young man. His in
tegrity of character ne eds no voucher for
every body in town knows who Phin is
what he is and all about him. They know
that all the dependence in the world can be
placed in him, and every voter knows that
if he is elected the interests of his constitu-
ents will receive his prompt attention. In
fact he is just the man every voter in this
town and class wants as a Representatives
and the way to make his election sure is for
every Republican to go to the polls next
Monday and vote the straight Re publican
ticket BY 50 doing the result will be safe
and Mr.. P. G. Hunt will go to Augusta this
winter without an iota of a doubt.
