Letter from Rev. ]. C. Lawson.

Editor Union Times: Perhaps it
would be interesting to a number of
your readers for me to write con-
corning trip to Beaufort from
which l have just returned. 1t is a
we'll known fact that Beaufort is one
of the oldest settlements in our
State. On account of this fact there
are many sights and scenes of
peculiar interest to the visitor. The
town is one in which the new and
old, the Past and the Present are
represented in q very interesting
way. In passing out of the beauti-
ful harbor on the Beaufort river one
sees the old Spanish fort erected
more than two hundred years ago.
The front wall, which has now al
most disappeared, is built very near
the edge of the water, and il may be
easily imagined. that this fortress
presented formidable appearance
in its day. = Nothing now remains
except low wall which is made of
material locally called "Tabbie. "
1t is said that the art of making
this material has been lost. Al few
miles farther down the river, is the
U: s. Naval Station which ia now
practically abandoned. The Govern
l. ment, it is said, to have spent about
two millions Of dollars at this place.
Does the reader consider this waste
of funds? .esnf;'.

The Baptist church of Beaufort
was built nearly one hundred years
ago under the leadership of DIR.
Richard Fuller. The building is
not without beauty. 1t is com
modulus and the architecture inter
esting.
The st. Helena Episcopal church
on account of its age is very interest
ing. 1t was founded and built two
hundred years ago. On q metal
tablet at the front entrance the
words, Founded by act of Assembly
Of Colonial Government, A. d.
1712,' are inscribed. Inside the
church is another table inscribed as
follows, In memory of George
Galphin McMurphy, Adjutant 81
Colonel Youngblood's regiment OF
South Carolina State troops in war
Of 1872" Another tablet gives the
names of quite a number of gallan,
Confederate soldiers. Below their
names occurs the following sigpi,
ticant sentence. THE triumphs N
might are transient, they pass al
are forgotten, the. sufferjpgs of
are craven deep on the chronicle q
nations. The ancient wall around
the church and burying ground was
built of bricks brought from Eng
land. They are much larger in size
than those that are made at present.
The fine harbor of Beaufort does
not seem to have the measure of
appreciation it deserves. The str
rounding country is very fertile and
truck growing is said to be very
profitable.

MATAWAN man AND
BROTHER IN QUARREL

Asbury Park, Nov. 21.-How two
elderly brothers, bachelors, carried a
disagreement to the extent of setting
up individual tables, which were indi-
vidually supplied, in the home they
still shared, has been told in testi-
mony is proceedings in which a deci-
sion has just been made.
BY the decision David B. F. Lam
bertson, of Matawan, continues as CO.
administrator with his brother, Ar
temas Lambertson, in settling a
SIS, 900 estate, which their mother,
Mrs. Amanda Lambertson, left when
she died intestate in 1907.
Johnston & Conover, of this city,
counsel for David Lambertson, have
been advised that their chancery suit
in his behalf for a partition of the
real estate has been approved and
the Monmouth County Orphans
Court has accepted David Lambert
sons inventory and accounting of the
personal property.
ARENAS Lambertson sought to
have David removed as an admins
traitor following a disagreement over
David's suit against ARENAS to re-
cover 5000 on a note. His objections
to the partition suit were overruled.
The testimony shows that Dayid's
accounting had not been filed when,
for that reason, ARENAS brought suit
to have his brother removed as ad-
ministrator, because the brothers had
each selected an appraiser and the
appraisers had failed to agree on
valuations.

Wealthy horseman Near Me-

Metuchen, Nov. 21.-In the Mid

day Colonel John R. Hardy, wealthy,
retired business man and noted horse
man of this place, was placed on
trial charged with a%ssaulting Mrs.
Sarah Krug, wife of William B. Krug
a New York broker, who lives near
Railway.
Mrs. Krug swore that when she
had called on her friend, Mrs. Hardy,
on June 81, this year, Colonel Hardy
had thrown her from the house. She
admitted that Colonel Hardy had
some time previously forbidden her
to enter his home; that she had gone
because Mrs. Hardy, who is 80, had
urgently requested her to call. Har-
dy is So. Mrs. Krug said she drove
to the Hardy home at 9 o'clock on
the evening Of June 81, in her auto
mobile, accompanied by her chauffeur
Joseph Gravosky. She entered the
Hardy home by the kitchen door and
started upstairs. Colonel Hardy met
her on the stairway with. Don't

but they were too much for him and
they dragged me down to the front
door and threw me off the porch.
Colonel Hardy when called told or
his warnings to Mrs. Krug not to
come to the house, and said that he
had simply forced her out. He de-

her in any way other than was nee
essary to put her out.
1t was brought out that Colonel
