Death Of Mrs. J. Cal. Drafts.

Death Of Mrs. J. Cal. Drafts.
After a long and painful illness
Mrs. Claude D. Drafts, the beloved
wife of Mr.. J. Cal. Drafts, entered
into that rest which remaineth to the
people of God, at her home, in Sa-
luda county, on last Friday, Octo-
Der 81, 1899, in the 56th year of her
age, and her remains were inferred
in St. Stephens cemetery in this
place on Saturday. Mrs. Drafts was
the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Leroy
Hendrix, lately Of this place, both Of
whom have preceded her to the spirit
land, her mother only a few months
ago.
Mrs. Drafts was a most estimable
Christian woman who in early life
had given her hand to the church Of
her choice and her heart to God to
whom she had consecrated her life,
and she remained steadfast to the
end of her earthly pilgrimage in her
faith in the promises of her God that
beyt nd this vale Of tears there was a
peaceful and beautiful life in the land
of glorious Immortality.
Her girlhood days were spent at
at this place, and her whole life was
remarkable for deep piety, sincere
sympathy for the sorrowipg, the sick
the suffering and the dying, and by
her bright Christian life, she brought
rejoicing out of sadness, light out OF
darkness and many will rise in that
day of days and call her blessed. We
extend our deepest sympathies to the
bereaved husband, stricken family
and sorrowing friends.

Good Flour.

It is with pleasure that We call at
tention to the excellency of the -four
ground at the roller mill of Mr.. E
j. George, which is located in the
western suburbs of this town. Mr..
George has recently purchased a
complete set of roller mill machinery
which is now in thorough working
order, and being miller of long and
wide experience, he manufactures a
four that far surpasses that produced
by the mills Of any other section o:
the country. His -four is ground
from sound fresh wheat and is abso-
lutely free from any kind of adulter-
atoms whatever. HIS mill is home
enterprise snd is deserving of home
patronage and we are glad to learn
that he is meeting with success.
He is receiving shipments Of wheat
from Columbia and other parts Of
Richland county, all sections of Lex
ingtop, and from sections Of the sur
rounding counties and all his Gus
toners express themselves as being
highly pleased with the quantity and
quality of the -four. Consumers will
find this -four for sale by some Of our
local merchants, and they should get
sack and give it a trial and We feel
satisfied that they will be so we'll
pleased with the result that they will
use no other. We have given this
-four q trial and know whereof We
speak.
