Last Sunday we went down to Friend
ship church to worship with the Presby-
terian brethren, and the visit called us
| back to the ante bellum days of William
Z. Martin, the Baptist preacher at old
Friendship. On one occasion Uncle
Billy had been carrying on protractcd
meeting there for two weeks without
| any addition to the church. One night
he invited up mourners and only one old
man came up. He cast his eye down
from the high pulpit and recognized the
man and said, Brethren, 10 we have
been fishing these many days without
any success until tonight. We have
made haul and caught frog" The
old man slipped out and the meeting
was adjourned.
John Robinson next filled the pulpit
at Friendship. He had way Of beat
ing the Bible with his fist and taking it
up with both hands and bringing it down
on the book board He soon wore out
the Bible. The members purchased a
new book and Deacon Bolt gave the
preacher chat before preaching:
Brother Robinson, we have bought a
five dollar Bible and we are few in num-
bers here and cannot afford to let YOU
beat it up on the pulpit. | will get on
the front bench and when | see YOU
about to bring down your fist on the
book will shake my head at you and if
you don't then quit | will rise up and
tell you that you must not hit the Bible
any more"
What wonderful improvement there
is in the manners of the young people,
They sit quiet in the church during Sun
day school and preaching; no going out
or talking during the services. In old
times dozen boys and girls would rise
up and march out of the church to the
spring. All during the sermon this
would be kept up and when in the house
they would not behave themselves too
well. Next thing you would sec a negro
girl walk in with pitcher of water and
tumbler and hand it around to her
people. The children were mighty dry
in those days. | guess they ate too
many ginger cakes. 1t did not annoy
Uncle Billy in the least. He would
preach right on and not notice the eat.

know there was Il spring at Friendship.

GOV. ANSEL SPOKE
AT WARE SHOALS.
Did Not Mention Politics but Talked of

Country Was frequeotIy

Appiauded.
Following is an account from The
Greenville News of Governor Anseps
visit to Ware Shoals Saturday:
Greenwood, July a. Thousands of
people attended the annual picnic held
at Ware Shoals today.
Gov. Ansel came up from Columbia
and as he arrived in Ware Shoals
thousands of cheers were heard. He
: was escorted by Mr.. Benjamin Regel to
the church where he made an address.
The program was opened by prayer
by Rev. James M. Dallas. The well
come address was then made by Mr..
Benjamin Regel, at the close of which
he introduced Gov. M. f. Ansel.
He began by expressing his pleasure
at being invited to this occasion, where
he was able to see numbers of his
friends from the counties of Laurens,
Greenwood, Abbevillc, Grcenville and
possibly others awaiting his arrival.
He referred to the American people
and said that all should join in the
praises of America and the upbuilding
of this great country. The attention
of the audience was directed to the in
terests of education, material, indus
trial and religious progress.
The Piedmont section of South Caro-
lima was paid a high tribute by Gov.
Ansel. He spoke Of the progress and
prosperity that had marked it's course.
The harnessing of electricity and many
other important advances have been
made.
The educational interests were spoken
of and the old time school was com
pared with those of the present day.
Winthrop as a State institution was
praised by the Governor. Clemson Col
lege was also spoken of in very high
terms. He said that the good work of
these institutions would be prominent
as long as time exists
Religiously, he said, marked advance
ment had been made. The old churches
that existed many years ago furnished
the material for the building of other
houses of worship thereby enabling to
spread the gospel into every dark cor
ner of our State.
"With all this progress and prosper
ity comes opportunity which stares us
in the face" The above words were
dwclt upon and as Gov Ansel ended his
speech he said that he was indeed proud
to be the chief executive officer of this
grand old State
Congressman Lever was introduced
and he made an interesting talk ongood
laws, clean politics and the progress of
our country. Mr.. Lever captured his
'Sudience and hundreds of people gath
cred to shake his hand after the meet
ing.

Death of Mrs. w. r. White.

Mrs. w. r. White, who died in Green
vile several days ago, was the mother
of Mrs. j. A. Copeland, of this city.
The Spartanburg Journal has the fol-
lowing Of interest to the many friends
here of both Mrs. White and Mrs.
Copeland. The Journal says:
Before her marriage Mrs. White
was Miss Mary Montague Moseley and
was born in Abbeville county October
18th, 1887. On October 18th, 1857, she
was married to Capt. W. r. White.
Capt White died December 18th, 1898.
Mrs. White is survived by the follow
ing children: Mrs. w. r. Dillingham;, of
this city; Mrs. j. A. Copeland, of Lau-
rens; Mrs w. e. Wright and Mrs. r.
Y. Hellams. of Greenville."
Rev. w. M. Duncan, pastor of the
deceased, in last and beautiful tribute
to the memory of Mrs. White among
other things says:
mother, true and loyal friend, de-
Vout and consistent Christian. In early
life she united with the Methodist
Episcopal church and her Christian life
was one continuous and beautiful illus
tratiOn of the spirit and teachings of
the Christian religion. She was blessed
with an unusually bright mind which
was cultivated and trained with a sweet,
gentle disposition, and with that grace
and charm of southern womanhood
which commanded the respect and ad-
miration of all who came in contact
with her.
About one year ago she was made
an honorary life member of the Home

COMPLIMENTS FOR MR.. HADLEY.
St. Louis Republic Mas Gracious and
True Toward Him When Not
a Candidate.

VIM. s. Cowherd, who claims the Dem
ocratic nomination for Governor, has been
sneering at the ability and the usefulness
of Herbert s. Hadley, the nominee Of the
entire and undivided Republican party
for Governor. He began his abuse OF
Hadley in his opening speech at Sedalia
and has persistently attacked his official
record, claiming that he has accomplished
very little during his now almost COM
pleted term Of four years. The people
nave not been deceived by the attacks OF
Cowherd, for they know the truth about
the exceptionally good work done by Mr..
Hadley.
Over against the foolish assertions of
Cowherd must be placed the voluntary
and sincere testimony OF the st. Louis
Republic, organ Of the Missouri Democ-
racy. and now the champion Of Cowherd.
In its edition Of April 8, 1908, the same
edition in which appeared General Had
ley's public declaration that he did not
desire the nomination for Governor, and
when the people Of the entire state were
regreting his purpose to retire from pub
lie life, the Republic printed the follow
ing generous and true story Of his official
career.
This story is worthy Of the careful and
prayerful perusal Of Mr.. Cowherd and his
fellow defamers Of one of the most brill
liant. most energetic and most successful
young men who has ever been elected to
a public office in Missouri.

was seated in the center Of the hall, when

and before you are ready to spring the
name we will send It UP to you on a slip
Of paper"
Thus far addressed the convention In
behalf Of an unknown. He talked for ten
minutes, lauding to the skies this myth
cal person whom he wanted the conven-
ton to nominate for the second highest
executive Office in the State.
Blu Mann ran out of adjectives and
superlatives and he began to grow uneasy
as the time passed and the name he
awaited failed to materialize. In the
meantime, the leaders were racing like
mad among the eligibles, cajoling. plead
ing, begging each to become a victim Of
a supposedly assured slaughter. All said
nay.
At this critical, or perhaps psychological
moment, Hadley noticing the discontinue
Of the orator, stirred uneaslly in his seat.
Mann. still talking, was sweeping his eye
over the delegates looking for a desirable
himself, when his orbits lit upon Hadley.
Quick as a flash, and before q protest
from the young attorney could be made,
he closed his speech with a glowing per-
grafton, in which he Numbered the name
Of Hadley. Thunderstruck for the mo-
ment, Hadley was transfixed. Recovering,
he jumped to his feet to decline, when he
was seized by friends and practically
dragged to the rear of the hall.
For a time he turned a deaf ear to all
~pleadings, but was ultimately prevailed
upon to accept the nomination when he
