ing to cross the river with a very dear
friend, forgot what a dangerous bridge
she was walking on until her foot sud
denly slipped and she fell into the mer-
CHESS waters. Inc friend, however, by
risking his W life, saved her from the
terrible rocks below.
The last evening, the Misses Sharp
entertained the house party, and also a
crowd from Columbia, S. C. AS the
first rays Of the sun shone forth Friday
morning, the party were found journey
