in the ground in front Of his chicken

cord attached to the trigger Of a
cooked shot gun pointing to the ap-

any one approaching the chicken
house would run against the cord and
discharge the gun. Mr.. Neel's wife
while attending to her customary
outdoor duties forgetting that the
gun was set, accidentally came in
contact with the string, and received
the load Of shot intended for the
thieves.
The load. entered the right leg be-

MR. JAMES HAWKINS DENNIS.
One Of the Landmarks Of the County
P asses Away at Ripe Old
Age.

Mr.. James Hawkins Dennis died
last Thursday evening at seven O'Clock
at his home in tho Hartford communi-
ty, in: the 10Th year Of his age, and
was buried Saturday at twelve o 'clock
at the old Chapman graveyard, five
and half miles southeast Of the city,
where repose the ashes Of his father
and grandfather. The services were
conducted by Rev. S. P. Koon, pastor
of the St. L1kes church, Of which the
deceased was a life long member.
Mr.. Dennis served in the ,Confedr-
ate army first as a member Of Capt.
Jno. NJ. Kinard's company, Goth reg
iment, and at the close of the war Was
in the cavalry, branch. After the War
for long number Of years he was in
the revenue service. On Dec. 20, 1854,
be was married to Miss Susannah
Cureton Young. Of this eo.lnty, who
died Feb.t2, 1902, at the as. Of "a
years. He Is survived by Iiy, daugh-
ters and two sons, namely, Mrs. R. I.
Hollingsworth, Of Cross Hill; Mrs. l..
P. Whitten, Of Helena; Mr.. L. II.
Dennis, Of the Trinity section; Mr.. j..
T. Dennis, of this city; Misses Leila
and Idalia Dennis, Of the Hartford

ger, Of the city. . .
In the death OF Mr.. Dennis an"ther
old landmark Of Newberry ecanty has
passed away and another familiar
and prominent figure in lis history
has crossed the Great Divide; and the
ranks of tho old Confederate Veter-
ans have smaller grown for the mum
Der Of the grand and gallant band is
no longer large and mighty as once it
was, and every member that comes to
"cross the river and rest under the
shade Of the tree" tells perceptibly
in the thinning out Of the few remain
ing ones Of the faithful. heroes who
followed the immortal ehieftains
where duty called and spirit led.
Mr.. Dennis was kindly disposed
and friendly man, always with q
pleasant word for those whom he
knew and met in his intercourse with
his fellow-mau, and his intimate
friends who knew the worth Of lis
friendship valued it and were drawn
to him by lasting ties. He was al
ways pleasant to the boys of his ae-
quaintance when they visited his hos
pitable home in the country and when
he met them in town, and We have
happy recollections in this respect.
Those who have lost parents know
how to give sympathy to the children,
young or grown, who have to part
with the dear old father or mother
and return from the grave To the de5-
olate home 'amid the encircling
gloom.'
