Death OF Miss sallIe N. Hunter.

>
A few years after the CLOSE of the
Civil War Nathan Hunter. Of Newberry,
removed to ,Oconee county. He made
his homo on the London place, near Wal
halla, now owned and occupied by Charlie
Beatty, of Abbeyille county. Being
much advanced In years, Mr.. and Mrs.
Hunter, soon after their arrival here,
died, and their bodies were buried at
Bethel church. Several of their daugh-
ters also died. The youngest daughter,
Miss Sallie M. Hunter, made her homo
with the family of r. w. Shelor. Miss
Hunter was a faithful Christian woman
and member of the Presbyterian
church. Poor in health, she fingered
until the Oath day Of February, of the
present month, when she resignedly
passed away at the residence of Mr..
Shelor, in Anderson, on her 74th birth
day. Her pastor, Rev. j. E. James, and
quite number of friends, escorted the
remains of Miss Hunter to Walhalla on
Monday afternoons train, where they
were buried in the cemetery of the Bap-
tist church by the side of her sisters.
Hunter is an honored name in Newberry.

Boy and man, James ,Thompson has
manifeste0 that large public spirit which
has placed his name rightfully upon the
honor roll Of active leadership In the or
ganization, naturalization aud conduct
of every municipal utility and of every
public enterprise. AS red-shirted lad
he led the hose reel team of the old
Mountaineer Fire Engine Company; or
ganized and carried forward TO a career
of usefulness the Walhalla Hook and
Ladder Company; was ever magnani-
mousin the devotion of his time, talents
and energies in devising ways and means
to raise funds for all manner OF public
necessities, and for the various causes of
the church and religion; promoted and
carried through to successful operation a
number of enterprises that have added
profit and credit to the town; q prime
mover in the life of the oommunity's
fraternal orders, and than whom to no
one are the young people of old Wal
halla more indebted for the pleasures. of
it's social life.
AS q city councilman he has served
long and faithfully, acquitting himself
most creditably of the duties that have
devolved upon him as public servant.
His father, the late lamented John w. r.
Thompson, having been the first city
clerk of the town of Walhalla after its
incorporation, and having served in al
dermanic Office thereafter for near forty
years, it was but natural that the son
should succeed to prominence in con-
Quoting municipal affairs and safeguard
ing the public good.
But the e,noblest trait of all was the
deep sympathy of his soul, and the kind
hearted, generous disposition of his
nature. /. Never once did he falter at the
call of distress. And God rest him peace
fully who for others so often has sat by
tho shrouded dead through the long
silent watches of the night, and whose
hand 80 often has been called upon to
tonderly lower one whom death had
smitten into the earth where now he lies
30 low! tL

memory, knew the bigness of the heart

mr.. EARLE.|SSUES ANOTHER REPLY.
SHOWS REAL ISSUE AND THINKS yERNERs
OWN PROPOSITION is UP TO him."

|
Courier: AS said in card, e. e. Ver-
ner has run from his first positions, and
now propose to show up the real Issue
between us, which is not at ali one of
construction. In his campaign speeches
last year he made these statements, as
will be shown by a letter herewith given,
that the bill which passed the Senate
"Meant to conflscate the land of this
mountain section whore there was d
creek or river running through it with a
shoal on it; that all a company would
have to do was just pick up two or
three friends to value it and take it."
met him at Tamassee and branded these
statements as untrue. To show that he
did make these statements, here give
one of the many statements that 1 can
produce of those who heard it:
Milestone, 8. O., Feb. 90, 19O7.-I
was at the campaign meeting at Dou-
BILE Springs church in 1905, and heard
E.. e. Werner in his speech say thata
bill had passed the Senate that meant
to conflsoate the land of this noun
tain section where there was creek
r. or or-riyer.running through it with a
shoal on It; thatall a company would :,
have to do was just pick up two or
three friends to value it and takeit;
that he drew his knife and evermore
killed that bill; that he would suffer
his head cut off before he would let
that bill pass. f. G.. Barker.
Now these statements above quoted I
still brand as untrue.
In his article in December he stated
that he had accused me of passing two
bills, which I denied, I stated in reply
to that that / had at no time nor at any
place denied the passage of the bills, one
of which was then published, and state
ment from Jamea Thompson showing the
exact difference. The statement that
denied the passage of the bills is untrue.
He also stated that he could prove GER
tain statements by Mr.. Sheldon, which
he has not proven and cannot.
This Is sufficient to show the real issue
in this controversy and put bis PROPOSE
tion up to him. do not think that
have ever made mis- statement of fact or
eoAA uhoi uoh III c1oOi w fso1 iuul-
vidual gain or political preferment. 1
am willing to acknowledge my mistakes,
for do not claim perfection.
Now, If Mr.. Werner does not fheet the
real issue this controversy should end,
and I think it is here plainly enough set
out for any one to comprehend. The
powers that were contained, in the bills
which were passed are only those con-
tanned In his bill which passed at the last
session, and are no more than every rail-
road, telegraph and telephone company
has. But If there is difference In con-
struction, how could 1t be more patriotic
to grant the right to condemn land on
Tugaloo river than on Conneross creek,
where Mr.. Verner's farm is situatedp In
this matter was he only acting for bis
own interest and let the balance of the
people gop
AS have before stated, this contro-
versy has not been sought by me, and,
although the proof is overwhelming, 1
do not wish to injure any one unnecessa-
rily, and trust that the public will 30
construe my words.
Respectfully, j. r. Earle.
