A "Reminiscences.

Mr.. Editor: AZ news is Scarca in
West End this week have decided to
recall tn the mind of your readers All
incident that happened many years ago
in Union, an account OF which may
interest some Of your readers, many of
whom have never heard OF it while OF llers
have forgotten it.
Many years ago there lived in Uuion
two young men who we're fast friends,
one was OF fair complexion, the other
dak. The two friends were employed
bv the same concern. The black haired
young man became involved in a diiiicuity
with negro, which resulted in the kill
ing OF the negro, aud caused IL great
deal of excitement in Union at the time
Tue particulars OF the affair W. re about
ps f"llowS: I le Young man WAS III
company with d young lady upon the
streets. aS they passed il certain negro,
noted for his impudencc, he addressed the
coupe in grossly Insulting manner.
The young man being unarmed could do
nothing ut the time, but warned the negro
that he should answer To him later fol
the insult. The young man went t.
supper, got his pistol and he and his
friend started down the street; in East
Union. The pair had not gone far "hei
they met a policeman and the negr,
scoundrel who SAID to the policeman
there he is now" There was a click OF
a Cots navy, q bright flash, deafcnini
report and the Legro fell, never to Iis'
again, and the insulted WAS avenged
The young man who did the shootin,
climbed over the fence and walked away
This was the last time he was ever seel
by his friend There would be a happ
reunion if these two could meet one
more. Some of the readers will recogniz
these two young men, but the nunbe
will he few.

Aftec the funeral most Of the people
wont to Fosters Chapel expecting. to
attend Children Day services in tho

for Brother Isom told the boys and

people are believers in Brother Isom,
for as soon as he gavo them the adj
vice and opportunity they went at it
like cooling turtle doves.
Mr.. Editor you ought to come up

from Union is an expert; he always
comes with one girl, stays with only
one and it Is whispered that some

talk to two or three, but this one is
like Classes" he will sure stick
Guess who he is9
