ADDRESS OF GREETING
BY REV. n. r. VERMILLlON.

VThe following ADDRESS OF greeting
to the old soldiers was delivered Sat
urday evening at the reception by
Rev. Henry F. Vermillion, of the
Baptist church. Being limited as to
time, Mr.. Vermillion was compelled
to boil down his remarks as much
as possible, and failing to pay spe-
cial tribute to the Southern women
he was reminded of the a by Col.
A. J. Weller, who responded to the
greeting. This would have peg a top
ic complete in itself. and Mr.. Yer
million promises at some time in the
future to address the friends of the
Southern cause upon the noble work
of the women of the Confederacy du-
ring the war and since.-Ed.)
Veterans of the Confederate Army:
1 greet you and welcome you to the
social joys of the nour in the name
and ON the behalf of the sons and
Daughters of that brave and gallant
host that immortalized Southern val
or and won the admiration of the
world for their military achieve
ments in the greatest civil war in
the history of man.
We have come together upon the
one-hundredth anniversary OF the
birth of that great cnieftain whose
work was most conspicuous in the
military operations of that ~sanguinary
conflict. The name is whose honor
this assemblage has been called to-

gifted pen of a Plutarch, the ponder

fervid e~loquence of a Cicero; yet the

of the nour with lengthy biography
or extended eulogy.
When Robert E.. e resigned mis-
cast in his lot with Virginia Inc with
the South, old General Scott said
that he would be worth as much to
the Southern cause as twenty thous-
and men. In the light of history that
statement appears to have been
prophecy.
Lees modest estimate of his own
character and powers; his gentle
manners; his manly bearing; his un-
swerving devotion to his convictions
of right and of duty; ais marvellous
military skill; his quiet, but, daunt-
cesses in battle against superior num-
beers of better fed, better clothed and
better equipped men than his own
distinguished him as the worlds
greatest military hero and made him
all but the idol of ais men. The for
titude with which he endured the
losses, the privations and the suffer
ings of the war, together with his
mag1alimous spirit toward ais enc
mics and prosecutors after the close
OF the war, make him as an example
Of patience worthy of a place by the
side of the Patriarch Job.

financial loss to himself, he gave mis-
superior powers to training tae youth

A SYNOPSIS OF JUDGE
PRINCES CHARGE
To the Grand Jury Of Lexington Coun-
ty, in Which He Advises them as to
their General Duties.

InSlF ueNeTdl UUuSSs
In the first place Judge Prince read
the oath of the grand juror, stating
that it was serious obligation and
that they did not perhaps realize the
great Importance of their duty. He
specially emphasized the fact that
the grand jury was to present none
because of envy or jealousy, and was
not to leave any out because of affec-
ton, that he would not dwell upon
the clause, mot to present any for
fear or envy or hatred" because that
is not our peoples way of SHINING. He
would, however, emphasize the duty
of not leaving any unpresented by
cause of favor or reward or hope of
reward. That while in his experience
on the bench and at the bar, had
thoroughly convinced him that JUS
tice could not be bought and sold for
a price in South Carolina; yet he was
sometimes constrained to think tnat
Justice had been defeated by uncon-
scious affection and favor. That
man who could not lay aside his little
prejudices for and against people, and
honestly seek the truth in all matters
given the grand. jury in charge,
was of too small a calibre to discharge
the duties of that high Office, and If
there were any such in this grand
jury, I earnestly cal. upon them now
to at least have manhood enough to
disclose their infrmities, and I will
cheerfully relieve them from any fur
ther attendance upon the court.
'sThatin order to properly discharge
the duties of grand juror, a man must
be possessed in very high degree OF.
both physical and moral courage;
not only must be thus endowed, but
he should be by nature fair and I'M
partial, and possessed of a high de-

Adultery.

oHenses".
Adultery.
II would especially mention the
crime of adultery. In fe-Teting out
this crime, I would caution the grand
Jury to exercise high degree of pru-
dence and common sense. It is not
to be expected that the grand jury
should display in this regard such
zeal as would deprive their homes of
the usual help; but I would call upon
them to ferret out, and present, ev-
cry case of adultery in the county,
where there was an illicit relation be-
tween the races. The reason that OBJ
tains for passing law against miseg-
ination or intermarriage of races, was
much stronger in inducing the prohi-
bition of the Illicit sexual inter-
course between the races.
"It is due to both the white and the
black race that each be kept pure and
that there be neither intercourse or
marriages. 1t is certainly due to the
white race that there be no intermix-
ing of negro blood. I say this with
no unkindness to the negro race, for,
having been born and reared upon a
negro plantation, my feelings for the
negro race are most kindly. But I
never forget-neither do I permit the
negro to forget-that am white
man and he is negro; that am, for
that reason, his superior, and will not
permit any social equality, or any
thing that tends in that direction.
Having said this much, gentlemen,
perhaps candor would compel me to
say, that in the court house and in
the administration of law the white
race owes it to itself that the negro is
fully and thoroughly protected in all
his rights to life, liberty and property,
and a jury composed of white men
who would convict negro of crime
on testimony that would not justify
the conviction of a white man for a
like offense, would be disgrace to
their race. Justice is blind and rec
ognizes neither race nor conditions,
or servitude; nor does she recognize
any distinction between wealth and
poverty; and he who would minister at
her affairs, whether as Judge or juror,
whowould be Influenced in hisdecisions
by race prejudice, is so contemplate
that he ought to be kicked out of the
court room.''

As TO County Officers.

~ ~ SoHii>J S"SS'S
The Judge then commented on the
duty of the grand jury to examine
the county Offices, advising them that
if the examination was not to be
thorough, not to make it at all. Not
to say that the Offices were well con-
Quoted unless they knew that to be a
fact after a most thorough and syste-
matte examination. That in making
this examination accept no officers
statement for the truth, but verify
from the records every statement
made. In the examination of the su-
pervisors Office, for instance, call for,
and have him to produce, an item
lied account, duly proven, of every
claim paid by him. Do not substi-
tute your Judgment for that of the Of
fcer selected for the discharge of this
duty, unless he has been so ERRONEOUS
in judgment as to Justify the presump-
ton Of undue influence or fraud. OBJ
servation and experience shows that
fully three-fourths, if not nine-tenths,
Of the county officials who go wrong,
did not start out with the intention Of
defrauding the people, and are not,
therefore, thieves originally, but
through faulty business methods and
bad bookkeeping, were unconsciously
betrayed into practices that ultimate
ly resulted in ruin to themselves and
injury to the county. That it was
only after the discovery of. their Ia
mentable condition that they, through
weakness, in order to hide their shame
turned thief and undertook to cover
up and conceal from the pub lie their

Supervisor Should Have Good Judg-
ment.
He specially emphasized the fact
that the county Supervisor who was
in sole charge, with the county COM
missiorers, of the roads, bridges and
other public works of the county and
who was the only officer in the coun-
tvwho could be honest and yet bank
rupt the county through bad judg-
ment, received in every county in the
State only about one-half the COM
pensation allowed clerk, treasurer or
auditor. That these were merely
ministerial Offices, and, except the
auditor, exercises no independent
Judgment, their duties being all pre-
scribed by law; but the Supervisor
has the disbursing of all county funds
and in doing so exercised all entirely
independent Judgment. This office
demands the highest type of business
judgment for its proper admlnlstra-
tion and yet this man, who ought to
the best business man in the county,
is paid only about one-half as much
as the ministerial officers mentioned
