After resting at home Sunday, we
started Monday for Priceville and
spent the morning With Mr.. G.
Franklin Keisler, one OF the biggest
hearted and most hospitable men OF
Lexington county, who took charge OF
us and treated us with generous
spread of most excellent dinner.
We spent that night with Mr..
Enoch Swygert, one cf the most
clever men, and successful and pro-
gressive farmers Of bis section. He
is surrounded with all comforts Of
life and indeed is good company.
Tuesday wound up the collections
on this side of the rivsr at Crout's
Store and Paul Blacks,
The collections 30 far have been
very poor. The people have not
turned out as they should have done,
to pay their taxes and 70 settle with
the Dispatch man. The Treasurer
as we'll as the Editor, hopes that the
people of the Fork will do a great
deal better than those On this sice
have done. w
Next week we will spend in the
Fork, commencing ab Uncle Josh

Still on the Rounds.

Last Sunday night it was our good
fortune to spend the night at the
elegant home of Mr.. Paul P. CLARK
in Boiling Springs township. He
has one of the best and prettiest
county homes in the county and has
surrounded himself with the COM
forts and conveniences Of life, and his
farm is model one. He lives at
home and boards at the same place.
On Monday morning we resumed
our trip through the county on our
hunt for delinquent subscribers. The
morning air was fresh and invigorat-
ing and We enjoyed the ride to PelioD,
the new town on the Perry Exten-
sion. This place is locsted in a
good farming country and has all
the requisites for making live and
thriving town.
In the afternoon we were at Rish-
ton and found things moving along
with their old time regularity.
As nightfall approached We turned
our horss's head toward the hospit-
able home of our friend of many
years, Mr.. John McCartha, and on
arriving there We found hearty
welcome awaiting US. We yielded
to the temptation to wet QUIZ hook in
tie famous waters of Black creek,
aid succeeded in stringing three fine
Dream which were greatly rel:shed by
the ep;curean of the party, the
County Treasurer.
Tuesday morning we arrived at
Mr.. Carson Ables and was very
much pleased to meet with our
friends of that neighborhood. In
the afternoon we were at Samaria, of
which place our friend, Mr.. William
Westmoreland, is the Godfather, and
takes lively interest in the pros,
perity of the place.
Wednesday and Thursday we. were
in The towns Of B4tesburg and Lees
Vile. The merchants of those places
all carry a large and handsomely
assorted stock of goods and the
evidences were that as soon as the
Christmas trade begins they will all
do a large and prosperous business.

One night last week two negro
boys coming from a festival got to

charged and Will Clark was shot.
Dr.. Quattlebaum did what he could
for the wounded boy, but he died

to answer to the charge of murder
at the next term of court.
Mrs. S,llie Shesly, widow Of the
late Andrew Shealy, died Friday
morning. She was good woman,
had lived over eighty years and all
her children were grown and settled
in life before she was called to her
reward. Rev. S P. Shumpert
preached her funeral and she wss
placed by the side Of her husband,
who had preceded .:her by twenty
years. And now in the family ceme-
terry is another grave to convince US
of the uncertainty of life and the
certainty of death.
David R.wl, 80 long known by the
people OF Lexington, is seriously sick
and the ending of a long and useful
life is painfully sure ere long. All Of
his children have been at his bed

though, he only visits Us occasionally,
yet, by bis genial disposition and
friendly hsndshakes, reminds us that
