The house is rather an unusual one.
It is walled inside with brick, plaster
ed over and every nail used in its
construction was forged by hand on
the premises. The building cost about
$4,000 and Is still in q fairly good state
of preservation. Notwithstanding its
ninety-two years Of service.
Mr.. Roach was raised farmer. AL
though endowed by nature with fine
intellect, and thoroughly instructed In
all that went to make man Of ster-
ling character. he never sought politi-
cal or social prominence.
He was content all Of his long life
to devote himself strictly to attend
ing to his own business, and after his
marriage especially gave his entire at
tention to the requirements of his
growing family. His wife was Miss
Mary Workman, who died in Septem-
Der, 1895, aged eighty-two years. AS
the result of the marriage there are
seven children living as follows: John
Nj. and VIM. T. Roach, in Texas; Mrs.
William Edwards in Tennessee: T. j.
and r. w. Roach at Rock Hill; Sam
M. Roach, Jr.. at Ogden, and Mrs. w.
T. Sturgis, who also lives near Rock
Hill.
Mr.. Roach has been a member Of
Ebenezer church for nearly half GEN.
tury and since boyhood has enjoyed
a reputation for upright character and
correct living. He has probably never
had a dollar except what he made
himself on his own farm, and he has
the reputation Of never having bought
a pound Of meat or a bushel of corn
in his life.
The neighborhood Of which Mr..
Roach's home Is the centre. for ra-
dius of two miles at least. Is entitled
to especial distinction for the longevi-
ty of it's inhabitants. A Mrs. Sturgis.
near there, died at one hundred and
two: John Campbell died at eighty
two, and his wife died at seventy-two;
James Jones died at seventy-seven,
and his wife, Rhoda Jones, died at
eighty -four: Mrs. Mary Allen died at
eighty-four and her daughter, Miss
Mary Allen, died at eighty-two; Mrs
Jincy Henry died at eighty-two: A.
T. Black at seventy-two, and his wife
died at seventy-three; Samuel Stur-
gis Is living at eighty-fve, and his
wife, who died some years ago. was
seventy-six.
Mr.. Roach, although feeble on ac-
count of his advanced age, Is still able
to walk about, and during most Of the
time his mind continues clear.

YOU WILL BE ALL
SMILES AGAIN
Forget Your stomach and You'll
Have Santa Claus Face.
HOW TO DO 1T.


If there is one thing more than all
others that will give man a forlorn
and friendless appearance and make
him morbid and cranky and dis
agreeable that thing is dyspepsia. 1t
makes one FORGET his friends and be-
come morose and irritable. He is so
wrapped up in his own misery that he
is inconsiderate of every one else. Re-
ueVed of this terrible and depressing
ailment he again becomes a good fell
low and a man among men.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are be-
yond question the most effective and
popular remedy ever offered to the SUI
ferers of this terrible disease. The
thousands and thousands of cures they
have brought about and the enormous
increase of their sales fully attest the
truth of this statement.
They are. above ALL a natural rem
edy They possess exactly the same
properties tnat the gastric juices and
other digestive fluids of the stomach
possess, and they actually do the d.
gestive work of the stomach and en-
able that organ to rest and recuperate
and become sound and we'll. They act
in a mild, natural manner and cause
no disturbance in the digestive organs.
They prevent any fermentation of the
food which causes sour stomach. In
forgets that he has a stomach and
his resulting cheerfulness presents a
great contrast to his former dejec-
ton.
Millions of boxes of Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets are sold annually and they
are but i'm the dawn of their popularity
Every mail brings letters of thanks
giving from grateful ones who have
been cured of this terrible disease The
following is one of hundreds received
each week:
Rev. j. r. Hoag of Wymore, Neb.
writes: For six years 1 have been
troubled with dyspepsia. Last fall l
became very much alarmed at some
symptoms of heart trouble and came to
believe there was sympathetic rela-
ton between the two diseases, or rath-
err, that the stomach trouble was the
cause of the heart disturbances. I hit
upon Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets for a
remedy and invested a dollar and a
half for three boxes which lasted me
three months, and l can eat any kind
of food l want and have a good. Wig
orous appetite. Although l am AZ years
old. now feel perfectly well and With
out being requested by anyone / make
this statement as a compliment to the
virtues of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets. ="

RICHARD R. WRIGHT.
From LesIie,s Weekly.


Readers of Winters Voices of
Freedom" will recall the stirring and
beautiful lines, Howard at Atlanta"
founded on a touching incident which
occurred once when the veteran gener-
al, o. o. Howard, was in Atlanta max
ing an address to the freedmen. What
shall l tell the people up North" said
the general, about you people down
here?" The voice of a small boy was
heard: "Massa." he cried, tell 'em we
are risin'." The colored lad who gave
this message was Richard r. Wright,
been "risin until he is now the hon
ored president of one of the largest
and most successful industrial schools
for negroes in the South, the Georgia
State Industrial College at Savannah.
President Wright was born of a slave
mother. who was possessed with a
strong desire for learning. After the
close of the war, when young Wright
was about nine years of age, the fam
lily, consisting of himself, his mother
and a younger brother, walked 300
miles to Atlanta, that the children
might go TO school. After receiving
an education himself. through many
difficulties, Wright resolved to devote
his life to helping the people of his
race uD to a higher plane. According
ly he opened, in 1892, an industrial
school five miles from Savannah, in a
section thickly populated with negroes.
Beginning with a little band of only
eight OnpilE the school has
steadily until last year it had an en-
rollment of 534 students. and might al
most have doubled that number had
there been room to admit all appli-
cants. Both sexes are taught, and in
struction is given in all the trades to
man and women who desire to make
themselves useful and independent
The boys are taught carpentry, brick
laying, tailoring, dairying and farm
ing, and the girls learn dressmaking,
plain sewing, and all branches of
housewifery. The college has "a farm
of fifty-two acres adjoining, and the
chief emphasis is laid upon instruction
in practical agriculture. The college
is greatly in need of larger buildings
and increased funds TO enable it to
meet the demands made upon it. At
least $4,000 is needed for these pur-
poses. President Wright is thorough
ly Endorsed by many prominent people
throughout the country, among them
the Hon. j. NJ. Terrell, the present
Governor OF the state. and two former
Governors, A. D. Gambler and w. j.
Northen: also by Congressman w.
H. Fleming. J. H. Estill, editor of the
Savannah Morning News. and by his
local board of trustees, the chairman
of which is Mr.. Peter w. Meldrim,
president of the Georgia Bar Associa-
ton
