BEAUTIFUL SCENERY.

From the Daily Item, Aug II.
The Columbia party which came
In yesterday afternoon had consid-
erable to say about the roads over
which they travelled, but they had a
great deal more to say of the beau
tiful scenery in the swamp on this
side of the Wateree. Photographer
w. L. Blanchard characterized it as
being as beautiful as that which he
had seen anywhere in this country.
Others of the party went even far
ther and stated that the views in the
swamp were the most beautiful they
had ever seen.
The members Of the party were
especially pleased with the old COL
onial homes which they passed on
this side az the river in the lower
part OF Stateburg township and Mr..
Blanchard stated that IT was his in
tention TO come back at the earliest
possible date TO get photographs Of
the houses and places Of interest and
to take views in the swamp.
He left Columbia some time ahead
OF the rest Of the party to take photo
graphs along the way and did secure
number Of them. He took several
views of the Church of the Holy
Cross at Stateburg.
