Charlotte Observer Chas.
P. Hudson is hurt by the article
in yesterdays Observer about
his place of business on North
TryOn street and the boiling in
the back lot OF the cream from
which his block ice cream is
made. He says his place of bust
ness is as good as he could get
when he came here and that his
ice cream is all right. He is "A
negro, he says, though one would
never suppose it by looking at
him. He is the inventor of the
freezer, came here from Lancas-
ter, S. c., and has the best OF
testimonials from the leading
citizens of that town, both as to
him and his intentions. The
block system by which his cream
is made freezes the cream in ten
minutes. He has letters patent
upon it and it is the best freezer
yet made in America.

TheFamousFo Forty-AcreRock,
One Mile South East of
Taxahaw, LancasterC Coun-
ty, S. G.

Mr., Editor: 1t was a pleasant
trip on the 2Sth inst, in company
with thirty young people from
different parts of the county, to
visit for the first time what is
called the Forty acre Rock. 1t
is now owned by our present
Clerk of Court, Mr.. J. f. Greg
ory. The scenery is grand to look
at. The largest place that grows
no shrubbery on it numbers up
in acres. The rock is granite -
Mill rocks have been gotten out
of it. 1t is fine for building pur.
poses and il it lay in some parts
Of the United States it would be
worth thousands. One thing that
attracts the visitors to this plac~,
there in solid place in the rock
is something resembling a mans
track, about two feet in length.
Tradition says il was old Satan's
track. But | hardly think that
was true, and il it was he was
only hitting the rock in high
places, as some one remarked
there was one other track over IN
Chesterfield county. However
let this be as it may, we hope
that he will never rerurn.
1t was "A day that will long be
remembered by that happy band
of young people. Long may they
live TO enjoy many days like it..
After dinner it was my pleas
ure TO go 10 the home Of Mr..
Thomas Gregory, the father OF
our efficient Clerk Of Court. He
is one of Lancaster's highly es.
teemed citizens, and is eighty
years old. What time | stayed
mad a pleasant time talking
and laughing of things of the
past. May he have many more
ears added to ms hlc, is my
prayer. w. II.
