CaIIoway's Survey
Reuben Kanester, Josiah Har'
risou, Travis Rogers and
Wm. Hancock.

Somewhere in the Williamson
diary, if l remember correctly,
he refers to the Rogers boys
entering school. They were the
sons of Travis Rogers who set
tied at first on Horizons creek
near what sfterward became the
Mountain Road Ford.
From A. j. Williams, as re-
lated to him by his his father
and other pioneers, we quote:
Thomas Galloway, a surveyor
living 10 Bradley county a short
while before the Ocoee district
was surveyed in this district
18th of Bradley wished to enter
some gold lots on Coker Creek
and started surveying from the
Ocoee basis line and crossed
Ocoee river on the township line
(by Sunny S school house, on
the south side of fractional tp.
2 south.
He got near the foot of the
main mountain on what was
aSe5-1908) the Benton Springs
road, and there camped one
Saturday. night in 1889 The
next day Reuben Kanester Snd
q lttieE ~ 1s-rday noonr as we nj
(who were anxlous~Co see Some
land lines run where they hao
settled so as to see who would
find themselves alone onquartel
sections) came to Galloway s
camp and told him it would be .
much better way to cross the
mountain at the Lillard GaE
than where he was then. So he
turned and surveyed the section
lines to the south corner of Sec
IS which was afterWard selected
as the School section. Here ht
turned his survey at right angle
toward the mountain, and Reu
ben Kanester saw at once tha
the quarter section he had bull
upon had no other settler on IT.
| Galloway continued his survey
crossing Hiwassee at or neal
Broad Shoals and surveyed sew
eral 40.acre gold lots on Cokel
Creek, and entered as much al
! the law allowed.
When Reuben Kanester came
to settle on what became the
south quarter OF section l.
fractional township 2 south, ht
lived for six weeks in a ten
while building a house. To cove
his house he cut an enormous
white oak, but having no saw ht
had to "butt" each cut after cut
ting it off with the axe before M
could make the boards.
Reuben Kanester was enumer
ated in 1888 in the Lillard- Bigg'
school, so he must have rented

house community before h'
settled in the John Williams

HOMICIDE NEAR CAMDEN.
James Vaughan Shot to Death.-|oe
Banks Accused.

Camden, Dec. 24.-Jas Vaughan,
member of a prominent family by
that name, of this county, was shot
and instantly killed today few miles
above Camden. Joe Banks is accus-
ed of the crime Vaughan's father
claims to have been witness Of the
killing. 1t is claimed he stated that
the man was drunk and deliberately
walked up to Vaughan and fired two
shots, one taking effect in the heart.
There had been no difficulty be-
tween the men previous and the cause
of the shooting is unknown. Banks
is now in the county Jail. A singu-
lar coincidence in connection with
the death of Vaughan is that about
twelve years ago on a Christmas Eve
Vaughan shot to death a negro on
the streets of Camden, but was &C
quilted Of the charge of murder.

MRS. DUGAS TO KEEP CHILDREN.
Supreme Court Declines to Remove
Girls From Her Care.

Columbia, Dec. 22.-The little
Tillman girls are left undisturbed in
the custody of their mother, Mrs,
Lucy Dugas, according to an order
filed by the supreme court this morn
ing. The order reads:
Eek parte. B. R. Tillman, Jr., in
re Douschka P. Tillman and Sarah
Starke Tillman.
After hearing return to the rule
issued herein, and upon further con-
sideration thereof, it is ordered that
it does not yet appear that the re-
spondent shall be deprived of the
custody of her children.
"Ordered further, that no reason
has been shown why the children
shall not yet be given into the custody
of the Tillmans for the time, hereto
fore directed; and that during theyea7
1915, the father of the children shall
have their custody not only for the
time heretofore directed. but in ad-
dition hereto the time the children
were directed to be put into the Gus
tody of their grandparents.
"Ordered further, that the father
shall indicate to the mother what
particular season is agreeable to him
to have such supplemented custody,
upon which notice the children shall
be given to him.
"Ordered further, that a refusal
of the infant children to comply with
the order of the court is not a suffi-
cient excuse; but on the contrary, if
the mother cannot enforce such COM
pliance, then it will be incumbent on
the court to find other agencies of
control.
"Ordered further, that a copy here
of served upon the father, B. R. Till
man, Jr., and the mother, Mrs. Lucy
Dugas." The order is signed by the
full court.

The Mail Order Menace.

A big heavy octupus it is, thrust
ing it's tentacles out to every borough
and hamlet of this broad land of
ours.
And when one of it's tentacles goes
out it comes back to the hungry man
bringing with it the life blood of the
rural merchant. Nor is the city deal
er exempt.
When you buy-buy from your To-
cal dealers, See the goods before
you pay for them and know that the
seller stands behind them for every
cent he is worth.
If you bought can of tomatoes
from your grocer bearing the name
of a distant packer, and later found
them to be spoiled, you would not
look to the packer to make adjust
ments; you would go to the grocer
from whom you bought the goods,
and he would do the proper thing
he does it every day. He's part of
your community. He can't afford to
be deceptive. He isn't thousand
miles away. He must face your criti-
cisms.
Every dollar you spend at home
circulates and profits every man who
comes in contact with it. Every dol
lar you send to the mail order house
means a loss to you and your towns
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1914-12-31

men. It's gone.
The mail order man pays no taxes
to your community. He does not con-
tribute to your schools, hospitals,
churches, your orphan asylums or
anything which makes for the up
keep or betterment of your commu-
nifty. He's parasite, and he's get
ting bigger every year.
Another species of this vampire is
the wagon man who drives about
from door to door peddling shoddy
foodstuffs through the lure of a still
more shoddy premium. He conducts
business for which he pays no IL
cense nor does he contribute any
thing to the general welfare: yet he
uses your roads and all your facili-
ties and has the protection of your
laws.
When youy buy, buy from local
dealers.
Citizenship and patriotism consists
of something more than voting, pay
ing taxes and cheering the flag. In
case of war could you respect neigh
bor who deserted your flag, JOINED
the enemy and fought against the
country which had given him free
dom, opportunity and happiness.
You cant afford to desert the
community in which you live, from
which you get your living. The well
fare of your home community should
be your first thought, because you
rise or fall with it.
Don't be a traitor-when you buy,
buy from your local merchant.
The unexpected rainy day comes
along. The mail order house in the
distant city has taken your money in
days of prosperity; but will they help
you now?
Somehow that big hand that reach
ed out from everywhere has sudden
ly shrunk and gone. Those nice let
ters which always had the same ma
gic words-buy! buy! buy. have
suddenly ceased to interest you be-
cause you have no money to send
away.
But Old Jim Smith, the corner
orocar halls Won as Won 60 dispirited-
ly by. Jim knows you're good for
credit, even though you're out of
work. He knows you'll pay. You
tell him the hard-luck story and jim
opens his heart and takes you in. He
carries you and your family along
until the skies are blue and all is
we'll.
And now when you buy, you buy at
home.

you take the chance?
Calomel acts on the sluggish liver

Modern science has discovered a

is so harmless that acids may be
