not publish it as the writer failed to
enclose his or her real name. Merely
giving the pen name is not sufficient.
The editor must know the real name
of the writer of an article intended
for publication. If the author of
the article or letter prefers, we will
not publish the name but MUST
have it on file in our Office. If the
Modoc correspondent will send his
or her real name, we shall be glad
to publish any news letters. The
editor of The Advertiser Is always
glad to receive news letters from all
parts of the county. We very ear
nestly desire to make The Adver-
tiser COUNTY paper in the full

All Who Work to be Rewarded

The editor of The Advertiser has
put a considerable sum of money in
prizes in order to reward the young
ladies who are working so faithful
ly in our subscription contest. Usual
ly only two or three prizes are offer
ed, while in our contest seven valua-
BILE prizes have been provided. We
are not willing to stop at seven
prizes, if a larger number of young
ladies work. In order to reward all
who are really active, we have de-
cided to present every young lady
who receives as many as $4,000
votes some token tnat they will ap-
preciate. There are several young
ladies who are below the $4,000
mark but who have ample time in
which to greatly increase their num-
ber of votes. We can not afford the
expense of giving these additional
presents unless $4,000 votes are
sent in. The value of these prizes
will be in proportion to the number
of votes above $4,000.

Pardons by Gov. Blease.

Gov. Blease yesterday granted
clemency in three cases. a parole
was granted to w. O. Carpenter, a
white man from Edgefeld county,
who is serving a life sentence in the
State penitentiary on the charge of
killing a man in 1889. Whitfield
Murrell was convicted on the same
charge and given life sentence.
He was pardoned several gears ago.
Carpenter was convicted when 19
years of age. He and Murrell we're
drunk. On the way home from the
town of Edgefeld they agreed to
kill the first man they met. Going
few miles they met white man
and shot him down. Gov. Blease
states in the parole that if Carpen-
ter ever drinks whiskey again that
he must return to the penitentiary.
Steve Lindsay, a negro, serving a
seven-years sentence from Edgefeld
county on the charge of manslaugh-
ter, having been convicted in 1908,
was pardoned by Gov. Blease. The
action in these two cases were taken
upon the recommendation of B. R.
Tillman.
Senator Tillman was in the Office
of Gov. Blease and stated to him
that he wished to ask for clemency
for Ben Turner, who was convicted
in Aiken county of killing his faith
er-in-law. 1t so happened that
Turner was pardoned several days
ago. There's the boy" said Gov.
Blease to Senator Tillman. Turner
had come in to thank the governor
for his liberty.-The State.

Clark's Hill Farmers Delighted
With Rains. Visitors Find

Youth.

The rain has come at last, and
has been falling for twenty-fou1
hours. The thirsty earth is drinking
1t in greedily; too late though we
fear for the trucking industry as
some of the truckers seem to think
their lettuce seriously injured by
the long drought, but the planters
are smiling. Some still have corn
to plant.
Very little cotton is planted in
our section as the fruit trees take
up all the hills, and the corn, the
bottoms, but still Is cents pound
has it's weight, and Broadwells
double jointed which he exhibited
at the Georgia Carolina fair last fall
with 24o open bolls to the stalk has
induced some of our farmers to up
root a few of their peach trees and
plant this fine seed.
Mr.. r. H. Middleton the young
est farmer in our midst who has had
no practical experience in farming
until last year having been an cleo
trician all of his life is surprising
his neighbors by his success, es-
pecially in his growing hay. He has
made two blades of grass grow
where only one grew before. He
gathered the largest Crop of hay
last fall ever made in this section.
The demand for it was great, but
the supply equaled it. He shipped
his last car few days ago.

Death of Capt. Geo. B. Lake.

After supper Monday evening,
March goth, Capt. Geo. B. Lake
walked to the Y. M. G. A. building
in Lexington as was his wont.
While standing beside a table on
which some friends were playing
CHESS, he fell without uttering a
word, dying instantly. Having fire.
quently, while in health, expressed
the desire that he be taken sudden
ly, instead of suffering through a
long illness, it seems that his sudden
passing through the val
ley of the shadow of death" was a
special dispensation of Providence.
Immediately after Capt. Lakes
death, arrangements were made to
bring the body to Edgefeld for bur-
ial in the family square in the viii
lage cemetery. The attendents from
Lexington were Miss Rosa Lake,
Capt. Lakes eldest daughter, and
Mr.. Jacob Sandusky, the latter be-
ing Confederate veteran who came
as the representative of the Masonic
fraternity and of the local camp of
Confederate veterans Mr.. San
dusky told The Advertisers repre-
sentative that no person in Lexing-
ton was more widely beloved than
Capt. Lake. He was popular alike
with the young and old.
When the announcement reached
Edgefeid, expressions of deep re-
gret could be heard on ever hand.
Capt. Lake was a native Of this
county, having descended from one
of the oldest and most highly cul-
tured families in the county. Of
this once large family, only two
members are now living, Mrs. R.H.
Minis and Miss Mamie Lake., AL
though Capt. Lake left Edgefeld
about ten years ago to make his
home elsewhere, he was still held in
very high esteem by his friends.
Capt. Lake was blessed with a
genial manner, generous nature,
magnetic personality and remark
able conversationalist, which en-
ab.ed him to quickly gather about
him large number of friends wher-
ever he went.
He prided himself on being an
'unreconstructed" Confederate. He
went to the war as a private with
the first company that was organ
lied in this county. He was re-
peatedly promoted for gallantry
and distinguished service, holding a
captains commission at the close
of the war.
Capt. Lake and his company were
in the famous Crater near Peters
burg, Va, when it was blown up by
the Union forces. For two hours
he was buried beneath the wreck
and debris. Having written the
most graphic description of this ca
tastrophe, Capt. Lake was some
times called Crater" Lake by his
comrades. But few veterans were
more thoroughly conversant with
the events that transpired between
81 and '65 than Capt. Lake. Nor
did any find keener delight in relat-
ing wartime experiences.
Capt. Luke leaves five daughters
and three sons. Misses Rosa and
Clara Lake and Mr.. Felix Lake at
tended the funeral. 1t was impossi-
BILE for the others to reach Edge
field in time. The eldest son, Rev.
John Lake, is engaged in mission
airy work in China.
The funeral was conducted from
the Baptist church Wednesday af-
ternoon last, Rev. T. P. Burgess
officiating.
