Our Batesburg Letter.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Qcr cemmunity has had renewed
occasion for sorrow. But ts~feeHF>da4s al
ago DR.. J. X. Kueece so long and so
favorably known to our people,
passed away. He had we'll neigh
reached the eightieth mile stone in
the Journey of life, and every year
had been one of useful activity, born
November II, 1878, he overcame ad
versity and succeeded when num-
bers more advantageously situated
than he, had ignohiniously failed.
1t can be truly said that the 7th of
November ended the life OF the most
remarkable man that this section has
ever produced Like the great Ma
poleon he did not wait for events to
carry him forward, but created
events by his indomitable fortitude
and perseverance and thereby became
for over half century the most IL
telle ctual and prominent man in cur
community. As to his services as
practicing physician where he b Id
front rank for fifty years, and as
minister of the gospel, farmer, has
band and father, I will leave for one
much more competent than myself
to more fully setforth in an extended
obituary that will soon be written
for your columns.
Misfortunes never come singly and
We are again called upon to mourn
the departure of friends. Only this
morning the sweet and gentle spirit
of our nearest neighbor, Mrs. S. ?.
Derrick, left for it's final rest. She
was, daughter Of Mark Shealy, form
erly of the Fork, but for many years
an exemplary citizen Of Saluda
county. Mrs. Derrick lefta husband
and three small children to mourn
her untimely loss. In the early
years CT womanhood she has been
called to her reward, possessed Of
every trait of character that could
en9ear her to family and friends. We
are want to exclaim, why vas she
removed from her loved ones, when
there was so much good for her to
do and when she was 50 willing to
perform her part aud more. She
will be buried in the ce:Ortery at
LeesviIle tomorrow and her pastor,
! Mr.. Kjnard, viii preach the funeral
at the sanctuary whore she delighted
! during her life to worship the Master
and await his coming.
Our townsman, J. ". Cooner has
had fever stricken household. For

The Nest Attractive Place.

Among the most attractive places
in Colunbia are the four immense
department stores of J. l. Mimnaugh
& Co., attractive at all times they
have been made PAL ticulafly so for the
accommodation of the visitors to thu
State Fair. 1t will not only be a
source of JOY and pleasure to visit
these stores, but it will be profitable
as we'll. From the ceiling to the
floor they have been filed with tie
choicest goods and the rarest bar
gains. Never before in the history
of Columbia has such magnificent
array of dry goods, notions, shoes,
clothing and hats been exhibited to
meet the wants and needs of the
purchasing public.
The most wonderfully surprising
feature about this tempting display
is that every article is genuine
bargain which in many instances are
worth many times more than the
figures at which it is marked. An
other novel feature about this i'm
mense establishment, which requires
four large store rooms TO contain the
goods, is that everything needed by
ladies and gentlemen in wearing
apparel can be had there, even from
paper of pins up to the most costly
dress pattern Of the richest and most
fashionable weave. Bargain hunters
will certainly miss the chance of a
life if they visit Columbia and fail to
inspect the values which Mimnaugh
is offering. Everybody is welcomed
and his doors stand open wide to
greet all who will enter whether you
wish to make large or small pur-
chases.
Country merchants when in the
city should visit the wholesale de
partment in which is stacked large
piles of seasonable and saleable goods.
He will save you money. Give him a
trial order and see if this is not so.
