ELLENDALE,

When Rev. Pardee returned homt
from conference he was given such al
ovation as only few persons have received
in this town. Every body welcomed the
returning pastor, regardless of sect Ol
color. Mr.. Pardee plainly showed his
happiness.
We report with sadness the alarming
condition of our friend Miss Lydia Short
who appears to be sinking rapidly.
Grover c. Reed, of Wilmington, Miss
Bessie Reed, of Baltimore, her niece and
nephew, and her two sisters, Mrs. Garter
and Mitten, with friends and relatives
are by the bedside OF the great sufferer
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Warren, of Milton,
are at the home of their sick daughter,
Mrs. Fred Deputy.
Mr.. Doverstine, who recently bought
and occupies the Compton farm, has lost
his IS pound, months old boy, and Its
remains we're inferred in McCauly Gene
tery on Thursday. A great mystery eur
rounds the death OF this big fiue baby, as
its trouble bsffird two of the county g
most prominent physicians, DIS Jones
and NAPLES, of Georgetown, and no cause
could be given for its suffering and death.
Mrs. Graham, wife Of our brother cor
respondent, of Houston, was jolly vlsl-
tor in town Tuesday. She comes here
annually to purchase fine hats of Mrs
Wood. our fashionable milliner. Mrs.
Graham searches all over for nice goods
but fuds better accommodation and more
skil in workmanship and better prices
right here in Glendale than elsewhere
Now ladies' take pointer from her wise
experience and follow the example, a
ialr trial will convince you that hrs
Wood beats the world in her line.
There seems now that there is no doubt
that Glendale will be extensively repre-
ssnted in Superior Court, at Georgetown,
this session, and if some heroic # lrt or
christian movement is not made to com
promise this matter, the greatest scandal
and blackened characters will be ventl
ated that ever disgIaced a decent com
munitv. and we humhly aud earnestly
call upon those, who love their HON
and respect the future Of the loved One-
OF the house hOid, to prevail upon the
principals of this scrap, to settle the mat
ter without further strife. This personal
matter has arrayed one ha Ofthe persons
ef our town against the other one hall
and friends and foes of individual inter
ests are searching their closets tor hidden
skeletons to besmirch the characters OF
their neighbors FOR ever 80 years we
have upheld the virtue and dignity OF
our little town aud we shall strive to the
end that no citizen shall end his lite's
career in the workhOuse Ia the trlang
ular and checkerboard history of our
bonored and sturdy town there is no
record of Jail bird or penitentiarv Grim
inal and | appeal to the best interests,
dignity and manhood of our citizens to
stop this bitter legal process, save us from
disgrace, uphold aud preserve our honor,
christianitv and pride To continue this
strife in open court, is to heap fuel upon
the fire, and we shudder when We con-
template the ultimate outcome OF the
future consequence Now, good people
heed this warning AMI clear the atmOs
Dhere of this scandal that will bring our
gray hairs to sorrow and our children TO
contempt. And to those OF so stubborn
and unvielding disposition, we ask them
to soberly consider this serious step before
court convenes next Monday and exert
their manhood aud bring about peace and
harmony among your brethren IN our
midst
