Only 4 few ladies met on the
22nd inst at the court house,
owing to the inclemency of the
weather and the day of the
week not being suited to the
occasion. Tuesday, the 25th, was
selected for another meeting at
the auditorium of the Graded
school building. A good many
attended here and steps
were taken to fully develop
this organization and a meeting
was readily agreed upon to take
place at Capt. W H Kennedy's
residence on March 9th. at 4 p m,
at which time and place we are
very much encouraged to antic.
ipate a full organization.
Now, ladies, l would kindly
urge your attendance in this
pleasant and patriotic enterprise
and feel safe in saying that your
best energies and presence will
accomplish the desired end.

CHARLESTON, February 26:-
Conductor G W Damon of the

and Florida Special No SO, yield.
ed command of his train to
Dan Cupid very gracefully last
night, just after passing Salters,
and while Engineer Bright
Beard was showing his engine
along at a 50-mile clip, the lit
tie love god, through Mr. j De-
Jongh, notary public of Flor
ence, made A " Harrell of Lock
hart, Ala, and Miss E o Ham,
mons of Rennert, N c, man and
wife, amid the congratulations
of their fellow passengers.
The marriage ceremony was
completed by the time the flyer
reached Lanes, 81 miles from
Charlest IN, and Miss Ledger of
Philadelphia thereupon made
the happy young people the
wedding present of a silver
sugar spoon with the sentiment
that it might be useful in the
sweetness of their welded life.
Without giving their friends
and relatives any special warn
ing Mr. Harrell and Miss Ham
mons left Rennert in the after
noon and had it in mind to tele-
graph Charleston for a minister,
planning to be married there
and 60 on to Alabama. But be-
fore reaching Lanes the young
people decided that it would be
good thing to become united
on the train, so they made in
quiries on the vestibule for
minister. For awhile it looked
as if they would have to wait
until they reached Charleston to
arrange for minister.
Trainmaster Brand of the
Atlantic Coast Line proved to
be the right man in the right
place. He knew that his friend,
Mr DeJongh of Florence, a
lawyer, special agent of the
road and notary public, was on
board the train, so Mr. DeJongh
was found and asked to perform
the ceremony. He was quite
willing. Mr.. DeJongh likes to
marry people. He believes in
helping a good cause always
and can tie a neat and secure
matrimonial knot.
So it was that the yonng peo.
pie stood up before him near
Salters with the train rushing
on to Lanes. Witnesses were
easy to secure. o T Elliott of
North Carolina, William Funk of
Kingstree and L B Brazell of
Florence acted as sponsors and
cheerfully indited their sigma
lures on the marriage certificate
that Mr. DeJongh prepared in a
jiffy. He had the two married
in proper form and everything
shipshape by the time the train
arrived at Lanes. he Will for
ward them a formal certificate
in a day ar two.
After the marriage Mr. and
Mrs Harrell were surrounded by
their fellow passengers who
hastened to extend congratula-
tions. 1t is not often that a mar
riage is performed on a flying
vestibule, and all the passengers
were anxious to nave a hand in
fluctuations. Mr. DeJongh de-
clared that he would frame the

Preaching Funeral Sermons.

Rev. A. Il. Grant has been a very
busy man the past week having had
three funeral services aside from his
regular work. And though the gener-
al public may not think of it in that
way the fact is that preaching a fun
eral sermon is q great strain on a
minister. Not only the preparation
for it but the presentation is q tax on
the nerves, because it is a special
occasion and of peculiar interest to
all the relatives and friends; and the
desire to speak the right word at the
right time and give solace and COM
fort to the bereaved makes it u much
more exhausting work than the ord
mary service. Right here we are
prompted to say, without reference to
any recent occurrence or reflection up
on any person in this community, tha9
some people who never go to church
or give anything to its support re-
quest and accept the service of minis
tiers without any thought OF giving
any compensation; and some without
even saying thank you. Ministers
do not make any charge for burying
the dead but all expensrs should be
provided for and when people are
financially able they should not for
get to show substantial apprecia-
ton of the minister's services.
