We would like to say q word of
PiedmOnt-at least of our little town in
connection with Pelzer. It cannot en-
viously be said that Piedmont was not
in it. Piedmont was, and all the glory
OF her .whirling mills and clean life and
exclusive population was with her as
she paid her addresses to Pelzer.
Piedmont's surrounding country is
jnbilant in the success of crops better
than the country has seen for years.
we believe the country people have
little time for other labor than bring
ing within shelter the various commo-
daties .exchangeable for yellow gold.
One neighb0r, however, Mr.. Richard
Jones, has found time for the labor of
love and called to the interest of his
heart and home an esrimable lady
whom he denOminates wife. This is
simply to announce Mr.. Jones' timely
| wisdom, and fOrewarn all the young
| ladies accustomed to await the appear

Church. The gentleman has been
captured, relieving henceforth the OBJ

who sought to check the gentleman's
