In Memoriam.

Capt. J. c L Wannamaker' so we'll
and favorably known to the people
of Lexington, has passed to his re-
ward and left great void in the
hearts of host Of surviving relatives
and friends who learned to love and
admire him for his openness OF charae
ter and his honest, upright life. he
was generous at all times and ever
ready to extend helping hand to the
needy and suffering. Frank and open
in his life and conduct, no one was
ever left in doubt as to his views and
opinions, as be never sought to con-
ceal or cover up any act. There was
no home anywhere more hospitable
than where he presided with the
quiet dignity open hearted and chival-
Tic old time Carolina gentleman. II
Captain Wannamaker was proud OF
any thing, it was of bis splendid war
record, as he had the right to be.
BE was First Lieutenant of Com
pany B, 1st Regiment, S. G V, of
the Confederate army. This regi-
ment became part of the famous
Jenkins Brigade and fought through
msny of the bloodist battles of the
war,
Fredericksburg, Charlottesville,
SpottsylVania, Fort Harrison, Kncx-
VILE, Lookout Mountain and other
fields witnessed the splendid cour-
age of its historic battalions, and it
is remarkable fact that the subject
Of this sketch was present with his
command in every engagement in
which it participated and was for
much of the time in command OF his
company. His men were devoted to
him, and this is not surprising when
he labored so constantly and earnestly
for the welfare of his gallant CON-
maud.
In q hasty retreat and under
Slf.1 g.. - ~. W;iJoroo,s he
paused and gave water to his wounded
men who were unable to fall back,
and leaving his nearly emptied can
teen in the hands OF a moltally
wounded comrade, rejoined his com
mand.
He stood by the gallant Kaigler
who, when his flagstaff was crushed |
by bullet, seized the falling colors |
and carried them steadily onward.
To write of his many gallant deeds |
would be to rewrite largely of all the
many battles through which he pass |
ed. His chivalric courage and his |
loyalty and answering patriotism
were subjects of common remark |
among his surviving comrades. He
was chosen commander of Camp |
Kaigler by an unanimous vote and
held the position at his demise. He !
had nearly lived out his allotted time
being in his sixty-ninth year when he
passed away. He was a large and
successful planter, useful and pub
lie spirited citizen and kind warm
hearted neighbor. We shall all miss
him, but the loved ones of his own |
household must feel the blow most. |
The vacant chair is there. The low
ing husband, the devoted, affection.
ate father is gone. The impress of his
life, however, is still there, and the
cultured and interesting family left
behind bear the evidences of his lov-
irg and tender care.
The remains were inferred in the
cemetery of the St. Andrew chapel
church by the Masonic brotherhood
in the presence of a large coDcourse
of friends and relatives on May 2nd,
1900. the day after his departure.
We hope to be able to emulate his
virtues, which were many; his faults,
which were few, We bury with him.

! hundred lives have been saved
through the use of One Minute
Cough Care. Most of those were
cases OF grippe, Group, asthma,
whoopiug cough, bronchitis and
pneumonia. Its early use prevents
consumption. J. E Kaufman.
When a girl j'lts one man and
marries another both men ought to

The tusks Of an elephant weighs
from thirty to seventy pounds each,
and sell for about FIVE dollars per

every particle Of the elephant, and

Neglect is the short step so many
take from cough or cold to con-

remedy that gives immediate results.
It cures all throat and lung trouble.
Children all like it and mothers en-
dorse it. J. E. Kaufman.
Statistics show that more money
is spent in the Uuited States for

to look after their poultry and i'm
prove it by getting better stock.
Starvation never yet cured dyspep-
sia. Persons with indigestion are
already half starved. They need
plenty of wholesome food. Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure digests what you
eat so the body can be nourished
while the worn out organs ale baipg
reconstructed. 1t is the only pre-
paration known that will instantly
relieve and completely cure all stom-
ach troubles. Try it if you are suf-
fering from indigestion. 1t will
certainly do you good. J. E. Ksuf,
