April 13, l left Georgetown at
IL o'clock, ran 10 miles 10 the
first rice plantation, d most
beautifullandin finer .si l.nceS,
fine large live oaks and pret-
ty, grassy lawns. Rested one
hour, passed several landings
and rice plantations and ferries.
TIE lands are not cultlv ated
sowell now in rice as they were
so years ago, but the fields are
as rich in soil as mud can make,
no wearing out. I have no
doubt that the soil in many
places is Is feet deep, but the
fields are still a wonder to be-
hold-such great dams to con-
fine the water in the rive r.Some
of them are as broad as a
railroad embankment and as sol.
id as the earth.
I stopped the boat to let the
boys get aboard that met me in
Georgetown from Kingstree
and came up the river with me
to see the rice fields and the
wonderful work that had been
been done on them that will re-
main thousands of years to
come; and, strange to say, Mr.
Editor, some of those wonder.
ful plantations are not more
than 80 miles from Kingstree
and but very few people-even
some of the oldest-have ever
seen them and do not even know
about them.
