TO the Editor Of The State:

To the Editor Of The State:
l see in the papers that whole days
are taken to teach the children about
Eli Whitney, the foremost inventor
of the age, but nothing said about
how he pilfcrcd the invention from a
South Carolinian. I was born and
raised in tho same neighborhoood, and
my father was, toe, with this South
Carolinian. The history that l am
writing is true; heard my father tell
it over and often, and other old men
in the neighborhood.
Eli Whitney came from Westboro,
Mass, the last Of the eighteenth cen.
tury and put up cabinet shop near
Augusta, Ga. He damned up a
branch and turned his laths by water;
he was mechanic himself and en-
ployed others to turn bed posts and
table legs for his furniture.
This South Carolinian that made
the first gin was named Kincaid also
Q mechanic. Mr. Kincaid owned q
large tract OF land on Little River in
in the southwestern part Of Fairfield
County with Mill creek running
through it. On this creek he built q
mill, in fact he put up the only grist
mill that was then in the country.
he was fine wheelwright.
Back in that time, before railroads,
the farmers in that neighborhood
would go at least once year TO Au-
gusta and Hamburg in Wagons for
eugaJ coffee, salt and iron. On one
OF Mr.. Kincaid's trips he met on the
streets of Auguata o Scotohman, o
fellow 'countryman, and asked him to
come home With him in che wagon;
which he did. and worked With Mr..
Kinosid for several years. This
scotchman q have forgotten his
nans) WAS one OF Eli Whitney's work.
men in his shop on the branch. This
man helped Mr.. Kincaid in all OF his
mechanical work in his mill on the
plantation, and mill work in the coun.
try. Mr.. K;ses;a he'd hundreds es
sheep. His pasture was Infested With
coekleburEs; when he would shear his
sheep the wool would be q mat Of
cockleburrs. To 6nger.piok this quan.
tity OF wool, or even enough for home
use, was 6 big job. 30 MIR. KinoaiG,
with the aid Of this Whitney map,
made him gin to get burrs out Of
the wolfram 1t by water in bis mill
house. He made improvements on it
FOR two or three years; finally it
cleaned the wool from tho oookleburre
enthusiastically. AL the asighbora fer
and nesr brought the wool to Mr.
Kincaid's mill to be cleaned, on
shares.
In those days every farmer had a
flock Of sheep. Mr.. Kiuoaid had run
cotton through his gin enough for
his own use and some Of his neigh
bors. ... f.'*.
In the meantime Mr.. Kiuoaid made
trips to Augusta and this workman
would 60 with him to visi. his friends
and kinsmen at Eli Whituey's shop.

Beach Ssrewa With Old Runners
Debris.

Old blockade runners in Charleston
will be interested in the report from
Wilmington Of the washing ashore on
Wrightsville Beach of the wreck OF
the noted runner Aebe, which was
sunk by the Federal feet during the
latter years of the Civil war.
Wilmington was probably next to
Charleston as favored port for the
trade OF the blockade runners and the
vessels frequeutly took it by turns as
to which port they would enter, the
presence Of the Federal feet aud 9th
er conditions frequently determining
the 2ors Of entry. On account Of the
valuable stores which the blockade
boats brought and the means of COM
munication with the outside world
which these boats provided, the en-
trance OF tie daring craft always
proved mos: acceptable to the people
OF the ports, and o friendly welcome
waited the runners, wherever and
whenever they called. ,: .=
