We visited the Septus section re-
Gently, Mr.. Editor, and were surprised
very much to see such q fine prospect
the people have of fgetting a good wheat
crop. Those people, perhaps. have
their best on the road where it can be
seen by passers by: but it is q good
thing to have something nice, even if
it is on the road.
Cotton planting is leading the day.
Corn. as usual, is following close in the
wake.
We had some rain last week. but we
think our farmers appreciated it,
as it softened up the clay few de-
6. les.
Mr.. A. J. Sitton, president of the
Pendleton Mfg Co., visited Atlanta

Mrs. A. j. Sitton and son, Augustus,

a History OF the Lewis Family.

f; MIR. EDITOR: Knowing the interest
you take in the early history Of ON
County, and of the first settlers who
| lald the foundations OF her prosperity
ana greatness, has induced us to give
you the history Of the Lewis family,
VINO have been important factors in
the development and upbuilding of
our grand old County.
y. berry Lewis was born near Sandy
Springs in the year 1910. Ills parents
came to this country from Wales dur
Ing the later part of the last century
and OF them very little is known.
Berry's boyhood was spent around
SANDY Springs. In 1899 he moved to
Stantonvillc and engaged in mcrchan-
dlslng with James Lewis. They were
highly successful, and in 1850. when
the railroad came and Belton was
rounded, Berry, forcsccing the possibi.
tues and advantages the road afforded.
severed his connection at Stantonvillc
ana opened out the first store in Bel
Ton. In this move he was successful
ana accumulated Il large property. lie
continued III business until 1880. when
he cold out to Messrs A. j. Strinpcr
and j. w. Poorc. He retired TO his
1arm, IL mile and q half above Bolton.
ana spent his remaining years i'm peace
and contentment and in the endowment
OF the fruits of his labors, and the
pleasure of country life.
lie died in 1891.
IN ls'0 he met Miss May Gambrcll, a.
young lady noted far and wide for her
grace and beauty, as we'll as for the
qualities Of mind and heart which
make up the true lady. She was de-
sccndcd from the Royal family of Eng
land, and was the acknowledged belle
OF the section in which she lived.
a mutual attachment sprang ND be-
tween them which soon ripened into
love. But as Romeo had round his
Juliet it was not until September, 1843,
that komeo claimed Juliet as his bride
and -hc nuptials were celebrated. The
knot was tied by Rev. Billy McGee,
her pastor. Tho union was blessed
with eight children, five Of whom arc
now living. They are Messrs c. B.
and Il. a. Lewis, Mrs. Asbury Bigby.
Mrs. L. &. Pooro and an invalid sister
But it is particularly of Mrs. Lewis
that we wish to speak. AS we have
stated above before her marriage she
was Miss Mary Gambrell, and was born
near Big Creek Church Jan. 1st, 1924.
In her early girlhood she Joined the
church ut Big Creek and lived an excm-
plary christian life. She was always
ready to minister to the sick, and lend
a helping hand to the poor. She was
OF lively, cheerful disposition, and
was always ready to heed call of
mercy. She took great interest in the
young people, and, until the terrible
which befell her in 1872, very
often had parties OF the young people
at her beautiful home. In these social
gatherings she was tho merriest one of
thelot. But a terrible affliction cameon
her and for % years she was great
sufferer. She bore her sufferings pa-
tlently, and on the 22nd Of March her
pure spirit winged its fight to the God
VINO created it. She was confined to
her bed only six days.
While she is missed by her loved
ones, we know rhnt che IS ct rest.

Our usually sensible and valued con
temporary. tho Columbia State, does
credit to it's conservatism in its com
ments on the operators strike now on
against the Southern Railroad. Its
tone is conciliatory and is calculated to
keep down tho angry pnssions now Mt
fever heat. The State says in part:
Strikes have been so ra,e-and for
t.inately sO-in tho South that this one
IL something of curiosity. We hope
the experience will not soon be repeat
cu ana that this section may be spared
MI forms OF labor troubles. But these
arc to be expected as the natural cOnse-
quences OF more numerous Industries
ana the results of the increased powers
OF corporations. The Southern rail
way, however, has always been 80 con
slucratc OF lts employees that it seems
IL pity 1t should bo the victim-Or cause
of one OF these unfortunate af-
fuirs.
Inc operators should remember that
while PUBLIC sympathy is to n great cx-
tent on their side, they cannot afford to
resort to violence. Tampering with
wires and instruments is utterly mex
cushble and, indeed, criminal, and will
injurc the cause of tho strikers in the
estimation of outsiders.
Happily, tho Columbia division has
not suffered from the strike, and as
told in our local columns, traffic has
not not been seriously interfered with.
Inc operators appear to be contented
too we'll satisfied to take extreme
steps. This is largely due to the CON
slderatlOn which has been shown them
&C all times by Superintendent Welles.
Perhaps if his gnnd exa,nnIe had been
followed by some who are higher in
authority, the whole trouble would
have been averted.
If there were more papers Of the

and encouraged to work together in
harmony, otherwise there are dark
days ahead for both.

Senator 'rillman's successful fight
for Il r. per cent. bounty to American
cable manufacturers in the constric-
tiOn Of the new Pacific cable will, it is
thought, be sufficient nOurisllment for
those struggling infant industries af-
tcctcd until they are able to stand
alone. 1t is well to foster these weak
and struggling institutions whenever
we can and whenever we can't, in sea
SOL and out of season; and il we can
create one rich concern without II
pcrceptiblc loss to the individual tax
payer, we are thereby building up the
country and driving money from It's
hiding places to seek Investment.
This is one way to build up country
but what do the ''wOOl hat bOys''
care for II percent. on nlittlc telegraph
wire? That's too small to bother
about.
