The Bamberg Herald-Dear Friend
Wilkes:
According to promise am sending
you an advertisement of Glenn
Springs hotel and Glenn Springs wa
ter, and trust that it may induce
many of your good people to spend
a while with us this season. We al
ready have several here from Bam-
berg, Orangeburg and Colleton coun-
ties, in fact from almost every coun-
ty in the State, especially in the
southern and eastern sections. We
would have been delighted to have
had you come by from the Press
Association, and mingle with our
nice, pleasant crowd and fingered
for a while with us.
We had quite a large attendance
in Greenville at the Press Associa-
ton, and after things got straighten-
ed out, considering the weather, we
had quite a pleasant sojourn and
profitable meeting.
Glenn Springs hotel management
is delighted to know that our gener-
Gus and cordial invitation. was ac-
cepted, and almost uninanimously at
that, and you can rest assured that
our "brethren" of the press next
year will have the best, biggest and
most enjoyable annual meeting since
the organization of the Association.
Glenn Springs hotel will serve re-
freshments on "half SHE'LL whole
SHE'LL" ION ice," or otherwise, just
any way that appeals to the varied
tastes and appetites Of the members.
So you can right now tell Mrs.
knight and the rest, to be ready to
accompany you to Glenn Springs, at
the next meeting of the Press Asso-
citation.
We have in the hotel now nearly
two hundred guests, representing
many of the best homes in the
South, and from July Goth to Sept.
Goth we expect to register from Is
to so new arrivals daily. We have
here now Governor Jennings and
family, of Florida, who is a first
cousin of the Democratic champion
and leader, Hon. William Jennings
Bryan, also Governor J. G. Sheppard
and Attorney General G.. Duncan Bel
linger, of South Carolina, besides
many prominent citizens from vari-
Gus sections of the United States
at least fifteen legislators.
Wee have just received intelligence
that, perhaps, the latter part Of Au-
gust Senator Tillman, with his
friend, President Taft, may visit
Glenn Springs for two weeks, as the
Senator is extremely partial to Glenn
Springs water, having recommended
it., we suppose, to the president.
The dining room fare and service
is not surpassed, if equalled at any
other summer resort in the South,
