REV. w. d. PATRICK IS DEAD.
He Passed Away Sunday at Hospital
e. In Columbia,

The following information appear
ed In the Columbia Sttae%of Monday
morning:
"Rev. w. D.. Patrick, the we'll
known Methodist minister, pastor of
the Walhalla Circuit, died at eleven
o'clock yesterday at a local hospital.
He was 43 years of age and a bro
Their of j.. e. Patrick, Of Columbia,
Rev. Patrick was q native Of Dorches-
ter county. He Is survived, besides
his brother, j. e. Patrick. by four
other brothers, his wife, who before
her marriage was Miss Daisy Horton.
OF ~Gillisonville, and two young chill
dren.
The funeral will be held in Gill;
sonyille this afternoon"
II news contained in the above
was received in Walhalla with deep
regret, though it was not unexpected.
1t was realized when Rev. Mr.. Pat
rick was taken to the hospital that
his chances Of recovery were ex-
tremely slight. He had been in poor
health for quite a while, and had
neen sent to this section Of the State
by the Methodist Conference in the
hope that the climate here would re-
store his health. His condition,
however, gradually became worse.
He was suffering from Bright's dis
ease, complicated with other trou-
bles.
The deepest sympathy Is felt for
the bereaved wife and children. Rev.
Mr.. Patrick had been unable to do
any active work On his circuit, but
his lot was cast among a sympathetic
and loving people, and his misfor-
tune through failing health endeared
him and his family in a marked de-
gree to the people whom he wished
to serve. His inability to perform
the services he had been sent to rem
der was a source of sorrow and re-
greet to him.

A Real Farm Exhibit.
Dickens Sentinel.)

The fair at Pendleton Tuesday,
the Sth, was attended by about 1000
people from Pickens, Anderson and
Oconee counties. Owing to the ideal
weather for farm work, the attend
ance doubtless surprised the fair
promoters. The exhibits included
pure bred cattle, horses hogs, poul-
Try. and farm and dairy products.
All the exhibits In every depart
ment were highly creditable, and the
Judges felt handicapped In reaching
their decisions. -
Probably the largest farm exhibit
was that Of Sedgwick M. Johnston,
Of Liberty, Route g, whose 1~4S-acres
farm Is eight miles from Pendleton.
1t contained prolific corn shown on
the stalk, varieties Of sweet and pop
corn, hay and fodder. peas, potatoes,
onions, apples, pears. pecans, pea
nuts, pumpkins, citrons, cushaws,
squash, wheat, oats, flour, peppers,
sunf1cwers, cotton, tomatoes, beets,
side-meat, hams and syrup.

Delay in Starting Improvement
of MoreIand and Georgia
Avenues VexeS Citizens.

The south side mass meeting last
night in the old city hall, called in the
interest of the boulevard from West
End to Grant park project, took on
decided political color.
Alderman John E. McCIelland, can
didate for mayor, charged that the
boulevard work had been postponed by
the city and county officials in order
that Moreland avenue, the street on
which Councilman Aldine Chambers,
also a candidate for mayor. lives, and
Ivy street might be improved first. AL
derman McClelland was much agitated
during his speech
Councilman Chambers and County
commissioners S. B. thurman and Shell
by Smith were earnest in their denials
of the charge. Councilman Chambers
declared that the Improvement of More
land avenue, a street in very bad con-
dition, had been decided upon in an
open meeting of council All the Off
cials said that the south side boulevard
work would be done as soon as prac-
teal
All other subjects but the south side
boulevard were barred from discussion.
1t was shown that the greater part Of
the $4,000 appropriated to begin the
boulevard work had been spent in
building underpasses at the junction of
Glenn street and the Southern and Cen
trail railroads. The regarding and re-
paving of Georgia avenue is included in
the project The Improvement was de-
cided upon by council in 1910.
The property owners expressed their
dissatisfaction at the slow progress of
the work, however, and appointed a
