Parted In u Dream.

This song is charming story Of
tho parting Of a brave American sol
dier, who fell at Santiago dc Cuba,
from his sweetheart. He appeared
to her in dream, the instant of his
death, and in the parting, asked hor
to wear for him a rose in her hair,
that he might surely know her when
she came to meet him. The song
contains a beautiful sentiment that
makes ono wish to take it home with
him. The words and music were
both written by our fellow crafts

with offspring, shall 80 forget their

place in Newberry county.
Mr.. Noah Taylor and Mrs. Wesley
Dominick we're married about one yea,
ago. They have LITTLE babe about
two months old. Mrs. Dominick is the
daughter Of Mr.. III. =. Dnmnick, and
was first married to Mr.. Wesley Domi-
nick, who died, leaving two children.
She then married Mr.. Taylor us stated
He is her first cousin. The married
life Of the two, we understand, has not
been strewn with flowers but many
thorns, and unpleasant incidents have
marked the short journey they have
made together rs man and wife
On Sunday morning they had some
words about permitting negro tenant
to ride one Of the mules to church.
Mr.. Taylor had given the permission
and his wife objected. Words followed
and Taylor drew his pistol and shot his
wife in the face just under the eye.
The ball was probed for by Drs. Hunter
and Wheeler who were called in but it
could not be found. The wife, after
she was shot, wrenched the pistol from
her husband and threw it under the
house where it was afterwards found.
She then walked to Mr.. Zach Taylor's
about two hundred yards distant. Or
rather she got nearly there and sent
her little children there to notify them
of the wounds, and some gentlemen
came out and assisted her to the house.
She was later in the day moved to the
residence OF Mr.. Creighton Domnick
who lives near by.
Mr.. Taylor, after shooting his wife,
gathered his razor and cut a long cash
in his throat and took his shot gun and
shot hole in his forehead, but nei.
ther one of his wounds is thought to be
fatal, and Mrs. Taylor was doing as
well as could be expected. He was
also moved to his fathers, Mr.. Zach
Taylor's.
The only excuse for the trouble Sun
day, or rather we should say explana-
tion, is that Mr.. Taylor was drinking.
He lives about five miles from Pros
perity and has recently built him II
comfortable home, and is a hard work.
ing man. Only last week he built Il
nice barn and had planted out good
orchard and was to all appearances
preparing to live happy and comfort
able life.
When he was first married he lived
near his wife's fathers, Mr.. H p. Domi-
nick's, but had recently moved down
near his fathers.
We regret very much the whole af-
fair.
