We hope the friends of The Rec
ord, when they come to town to do
their trading, will patronize the busi-
ness houses that advertise in this
paper. Remember that without these
liberal merchants, bankers and other
enterprising business men, the price
of subscription would be at least So
a year for such paper as The Rec
ord. You'll find, as a rule, that the
men who advertise are wide-awake
and on the alert and can give you
better bargains than those who do
not advertise. This applies not only
to Kingstree, but many live and up
to-date business men of Lake City,
Scranton and Greelyville recognize
the pulling power of an ad in The

A fair sprinkling of whites and

Rev Richard Carroll of Columbia at

roll has been called the Booker
Washington of South Carolina" and
his address was along similar lines
to those followed by the distinguish
ed negro educator. The address. or
lecture possibly fits it better, was
full of sound thought and philosophy
and he drove home his argument by
pointed anecdotes. His advice to the
negroes seemed not wholly accept
able to many of the colored folks
present, though a number of them
evidently agreed with the speaker in
all that he said. In our opinion Car
roll is doing good work for both
races and should be encouraged in
his efforts.

Mrs. Emma Adair Flynn Dead.

Lake City, April 1S:-On the
10th of April, at her home at john
son, Florida, Mrs Emma Adair
Flynn departed this life, at the age
of about eighty-five years.
Mrs Flynn was a native of Will
liamsburg county, being daughter
of the late Kinsey and Elizabeth
Brown. She first married J w
Vause, and moved with him to
Florida before Civil war. After the
death of Mr. Vause, she married a
NJ Flynn, who preceded her to the
grave. She left several children
and a host of grandchildren and
even quite a number of great-grand-
children. All these, together with
the friends, who in number would
make an army, will mourn her loss,
and mourn indeed. To all these
she was bound by tenderest ties.
1t is no exaggeration to say that to
know her was to love her" with
most lasting affection. Her nobili-
tv of character was of the highest
order. and her life the life of Il true
Christian, one worthy of all that
the name implies. She was wo-
manly woman; as a mother, abso-
lutely devoted to her offspring and
their welfare; as a neighbor, kind,
considerate and helpful; as wife,
loval and affectionate. To strangers
this language may seem too highly
colored, but to those who knew her
as friend or relative, it will express
but poorly an idea of her many vlr-
tues. To these she is indeed Gone
but not forgotten"-no, not until
they themselves have passed from
mortal ken.
