Mr.. Editor, I have lately Wis
tied Clio-tbat hustling city--and
Clio is turning round about SO
much that it is hard to keep up
with it. 1 had not been there for a
month or so, and it looked like
they had about done away with old
Clio, and made a new one, and if
they can get a Railroad from Ben
nettsvllle to Elrod or Pembroke,
N. c., I think it would help Clio.
This would open up q fine farming
country and timber lands, both in
North and South Carolina. have
seen some of the finest of farming
lands that would be along this line
in Robson county, and a Railroad
would soon cause them to develop
into fine farms. They are from
eight to fifteen miles from a rail-
road, which is q long way at this
day and time, and this road would
be nearly straight as you would see
on the map, and would give a
route to the ocean via Chadbourn,
Conway to Myrtle Beach. I hope
it will be built OF an early date.
There are o lot of fine farms in
Robson Co., waiting for over
crowded Marlboro to 60 and work
them up.

observations at the Reunion

Nj, Editor-A short article owe
ing tho observations of q veteran who
attended the State Reunion Of the
Confederate Veterans at Columbia, S.
O., last week might be of interest to
some of your readers.
There was a larger attendance than
usual. / think caused by the appro-
priation made by The Legislatures
large number thinking this would fur
nish free board and lodging and they
would have no expense beyond the
Railroad fare. The result was Colum-
bia was not prepared for them-not
SO much in the quantity of the food,
az the handling of the crowd. One
would have to stand in a pressure for
about one hour before his time came.
After a few efforts, the "free lunch
was abandoned and lodging houses
T, sought. These we're difficult to find.
The last night l stayed in the city l
paid 80 cents for the privilege Of lying
on o hard mattress placed on the floor
leaving room enough for another vet.
eran, who likewise paid his so cents.
W. had II in this homecoming in
at all hours of the night there was not
much sleep for any.
The free food co sisted of we'll pre-
pared ham, loaf bread, butter, rice,
and bot coffee, served by the nice la
dies of Columbia, which was an ape
pealing feature OF the occasion.
Notwithstanding there was nc free
beer, there was much beer drinking,
and resulting hilarity. | heard much
complaint, tho | think it was unjust.
Many expressed themselves as this be-
ing their last attendance at a reunion.
I think these reunions are waning
in attractiveness, both to the private
veterans and the cities which invite
them.
1t is a nice time for relaxation and
to spend a few days in q city. The
low railroad fare brings q large crowd
together who eat, drink and are merry
AS feature, "reminiscences of the war
of 61-65 we're lacking.
