A. b. Best, p. {

Rev. A. H.. Best, P. c.,
Dear Sir: Yours Of the 9th instant has been
received. and. excepting the remarks about
the superintendent OF Education. I comply
with your request TO publish the same.
Occupying the position which you do and
which ought to be the highest calling In the
land, II IL surprislng to me that you should
rest your name upon the rock OF the McCor-
mick Circuit; because I suppose you are
speaking for yourself, and not for the whole
Circuit,-because I know somewhat OF the
people in that section and know many OF
them TO be gentlemen and and Incapable ana
possessed of too much nobility to try to DO
harm to Others; I am therefore sorry that your
letter Is not more respectful. The lack OF req
spect on your part forces me to assume
q standard OF correspondence that l
am not accustomed 10. You are assured
that every mar whowrites to me, op-
serving the amenities that are current
among gentlemen, 10 sure TO receive from
me polite and respectful consideration
It 10, therefore, painful to me when a
minister OF the gospel not only forgets TO
exercise the Christian graces. but who also
falls to observe the proprieIies and the oour-
tesies that are common among good people.
My idea is, that the pulpit in the holy temple
10 the best and the most sacred place on
enrth, and, II the facts as TO his character
and bis conduct warrant, l believe nal q
minister OF the gospel is the highest and
best typo OF man, but 1 think q commission
to preach the gospel Of our Saviour gives no
man q right TO strike beneath the belt, or TO
misrepresent the facts In the discussion OF
any subject.
You say:
"You, Mr.. Editor. say this was an Anti.Ab-
bevllle meeting. / suppose this statement ls
due 10 the fact that you have tried 10 oeleno
the dispensary 80 long that to you dlspensary
and Abbeville are synonymous terms. stand-
ing for one and the came thing In your mlhd.
| sm glad to think hat this is not true Wild
regard to many OF the good people OF Inc
town oflAbbeville."
That aupposition, I suppose to DO a mall
clous or a wilful Misrepresentation. There Is
not q scintllla OF truth in It,. and l know OF
no circumstance that would Justify any such
speech.
Your reference to the good people OF Able
willie is gratuitous. AS far as l know, no man
OF Abbeville cares q cent as to what you
think. What they will liz ely object to.
and may probably resent is. any future NILS
representation of them. 1t ia hoped that you
may not pursue any unwarranted attack
upou the good name OF a people who never
heard OF you until you appear as their ira
Queer.
As 10 what you say Of prohibition in Geor-
gia, / nave only 10 say that any sort OF proof
for or against it-can be had. Good men
see things dltfere ntiy and differ in opinion.
1 give all men credit for sincerity In
their reports on the subject of prohibition,

zephyr had already passed, went to bed with
Mr.. MCMILLAN. When they got up next morn
ing they marched back to the starting point,
leaving the %aeroplsne where 1t was wrecked.
OF course, owing to the working order
of our wireless telegraphs some OF the
small particulars nay have miscarried. but
we are inclined to the opinion that In its
main features ibis story is not very wrong.
1t would have been the irony OF fate II Mr..
Owen had been hurt at the beginning OF bis
work in, the safest of all the trades. The
brick buying public will be glad to learn that
the zephyr did not disturb the brick kiln,
which seemed not to be In line with the
zephyr. The plsnks hat were lying loose on

Death Of Mr.. Harden.

John Nj. Harden, Superintendent OF the
Abbeville OIL Mill, died at his home
on Main Street, in this city Thursday morn
ing March Is, 1909, at five o'clock, aged 62
years.
The funeral services were held In the
Presby terrain church on Friday morning at
IL O'Clock. The great multitude that came
TO do him honor filled the church and occu
pied every seat.
The services were conducted by Rev. Nj.
Gregg. and his pastor, the Rev. j. Lowrie
| Wilson D. D. The Scripture reading was by
Mr.. Gregg; the prayer was by DR.. Wilson; the
| music from the organ, and the singing was
by the choir. Rev. E. B. Kennedy OF the A
R. P. Church occupied place in the pulpit,
and Rev. Mr.. wilkins, Of h Baptist church
was seated near by.
long line OF vehicles, filled with friends,
OF the deceased, followed the hearse to Up
| per Long Cane Cemetery, where the religious
| services were concluded and the interment
took place.
During several months Immediately pre-
ceding his death, Mr.. Harden had not been
a we'll man. For some seven or eight weeks
| be had been confined TO his bed, and during
| all thai time loving kindred, faithful friends,
trained nurses and IL killed physicians .gaVe
him their best attention. There swas not an
hour In all these weeks that there we're no.
attentive watchers at bis bedside. From his
FIRST attack, we learn that his physician had
no hope of his final recovery. While he had q
complication Of diseases 1t was that OF the
brain which ended his life.
In all the years OF his manhood Mr.. Har-
den gave u~nmistakeable evidence OF the fact
that he was, by nature and by culture, q
gentleman. His genial nature. his kindness
of heart, his cheerful speech and his cordial
greeting made for him friends of all men
whose privilege II was 10 know him we'll.
That intelligence which guided an honest
heart never failed TO command for him the
respect OF all men.
The lovable qualities we're 80 blended In him
that his character was a sermon and his life
was a benediction.
His answering integrity was an example
worthy Of emulation.
In the church, in the choir, in the Sunday
School, In the Bible Society, in the home, In
the business world. he was a good Citizen, an
honest man who modestly but unmistak-
ably %exempliied those admirable qualities OF
head and heart which tend to the betterment
Of man.

Church Attendance.

There was not much change in the religious
status last week. The bad weather seemed to
have a chilling effect on religious zeal. New
bonuets were not In evidence n In oonse-
quence attendance barely held It's own last
Sunday morning. 1t is thought that the new
bonne,s may raise the standard next Sunday.
For some u~naccountable reason Two OF our
counting machines refused to add last week
for this reason we have no account OF the at
tendance at the Methodist and Baptist
churches.
