Editions aud Editions.

Some two or three weeks ago we made men
ton of the fact that the Herald and News
had printed a memorial edition, the unveil-
ing of the onfederate monument being the
occasion.
And now comes the Observer with College
edition, the occasion being the fiftleth ami
versary OF the Newberry College. 1t Is full OF
interesting Information and worthy to be
printed In q book.
One important fact which the Observer for
got to put in the College edition is, that this
editor lived in Newberry the year that the
College was founded, 1856. That was the only
year that we spent away rom home, and the
recollection Of our career as printer and citi-
zen of Newberry affords this editor much
pleasure. We attended the Associate Re-
formed Presbyterian Sunday school. Prof
William Hood taught school in Newberry
that year and both being from Due West, We
cultivated friendship which still continues
Except, we believe, Judge James NJ. Carson
now OF Texas, all the men Of Newberry ir
1855 have crossed the River But the college
which was born that year lives and prosperl
to bless mankind.

AbbeviIle in Anderson.

A short trip to the busy city Of Anderson is
a wholesome experience for those who do not
realize how a town can grow by reason OF
forces set In motion by its own citizens.
With cotton mills, banks, street railways
and hundreds OF like interests Anderson pre-
sents picture OF thrift and industry that is
suggestive of the possibilities of this and 9TH
or places, once the movement isstarted.
Anderson like Abbeville was for many
years on branch line OF road and today she
has no important railroad Her progress has
been the work OF her own people, aud With
each new industry set on foot, her ability TO
start another was Increased.
so great has been the growth OF Anderson
the matter of new industries that she has
not been able TO fill all the important posi-.
tions OF trust with her own sons She has
drawn from the ranks of sister counties that
have fewer positions than good men to fill
them.
Abbeville furnished Anderson one OF the
best newspaper men in the state in the edi tor
Of the Daily Mail.

management aud gets a splendid salary.
Mr. j. Barton Henderson, also OF A bbeville,
is chief engineer of two cotton mills and is re-
ceivlng wages commensurate with so respon.
sible and important position.
There are many other sons OF Abbeville of
much longer citizenship in Anderson. They
are prominent in the affairs of that busy
city aud county. The list is long; and in
max ing special mention OF those who have
more recently gone out from amongst us we
are not losing sight OF those who at an ear.

Interesting Case.

The Press and Banner publishes the text
Of Judge r. E. Hills decree in the matter OF
the estate OF T. L. Haddon. The decree ls
interesting because nice points of law are in

ness OF the decision. There are more inter-
esting questions about Wills and the winding
up of estates than in any other division OF

of their wills than in any other of their bust.
