Ehrhardt, December S.-Sunday
morning brought us refresh
ing shower, was very welcome,
the dust was terrible to endure especi-
ally when there was plenty wag-
sons moving on our streets. The
young folks stayed in doors nearly
all the morning on account of the
rain. They amused themselves show
ing their Xmas presents, and having
pleasant jokes on each other, and
the like, then too they wondered
what they would get in return. So
take it all round the morning passed
off soon and pleasant. The older
heads listened and thought of times
long since gone, when Santa Claus
visited them. How they did and
how they would do now if they had
to live it over, with the experience
to guide them along life's way. How
ever, times and ways have changed
so much until everything would not
work so we'll. Perhaps our happiness
would be somewhat impaired by a
hfe's knowledge ahead, expect its
better to take everything as we find
it and work the best out of it, to
suit the times and occasion.
The two brick stores in town are
making show and one or two mer-
chants are planning how and where
to place their goods in them to make
the best display.
DIR. and Mrs. J. H. Hucks went to
Fairfax, S. c., to see her parents,
Rev. and Mrs. D. B. Groseclose, on
Saturday evening. Will return on
Monday noon on train.
The Hacker Manufacturing Co.
is cutting timber to haul in and
start up their plant again.
The Bamberg and Ehrhardt Rail-
road is laying rails down on the road
bed. Have down as far as Yank-
vile. Next and the heaviest work
will be Little Salkehatchie swamp.
This will have to be trestled and will
take some time to complete it, as
there will be several piling to drive
and perhaps more earth to haul in to
make the embankment complete.
The ladies are quite attentive to
the mail each day, some are delight
ed, others are disappointed because
the special goods ordered did not
come.
Mr.. B. w. Shaw has taken Mr.. j.
L. Connolly as partner with him in
business, or sold out to him. Could
rot find out which at this writing.
