Rambler Visits in Oconee

Mr.. Editor:-Doubtless you re-
member the article in a recent
issue of The Sentinel relative to
! the extraordinary good farming
| done by J. G.. Duckworth and a
OO-pound mule on 43 acres of
! Oconee county dirt, the details
of which most Of your readers,
doubtless, remember.
Well. I was oyer there the 29th
ult. And coming up the fine
automobile highway from West
minister to Walhalla. in that
good section near Conneross
church. espied a neat cottage
on a little knoll over to the right
of the road, nesting amongst a
a few pretty little oaks and sur,
rounded by crops that looked
good, after seeing so much in
other places that presented a
/ desert-like appearance. AS l
Hooked about me I was impressed
that I was viewing the place
which Duckworth and his mule
made famous; so driving oyer to
the little home 1 was convinced
of the correctness of my sur
mise. for I was greeted with a
,voloonoo that only a. PickenSite
knows how to give to a 'stran-
ger within her gates. " And the
evening being far spent, I yield
ed to the cordial invitation to
stay over night, the earlier part
of which, after the repast, were
very pleasantly spent in social
chat and listening to some line
music rendered by the two
Misses Butler and Mr.. Duck
worth's S little 15-year-old daugh-
ter. and I wish to say that the
trio and their music was worth
a trip many times longer than
was made by your scribe to see
and hear.
AS to Mr.. Duckworth's farm
ing, it was as good as the best,
oats being hauled in that will
thresh so bushels per acre, cot
ton ready to square and corn
over knee high that will make.
with seasons, 90 to rs bushels
per acre. and other side crops all
looking weH, and this in the face
of a drought that was making
other sections look like a desert.
I want to say that every Pick
ems man seemed to be prosperlng
on Oconee dirt, and among them
and not to be overlooked is our
GOOD friend Mrs. NJ. M. Muir
phree, who. in addition to being
a good farmer. is developing into
a real estate Speculation, having
sold only recently for $50 per
acre that which had cost but SIS
some two wears past, and rein
vested in what she considers
better land near Richland at s35
per acre. +,
Viewing everything from all
standpoints, I am satisfied that
our sister county is proud OF the
citizenship she has induced
Pickens to relinquish, and We of
Pickens are proud that we have
been able to contribute so much
to the material uplift of our less
favored sister. RAMBLER.

ARE NO STRINGS TO
HUER7A's PROMISE
HIS DELEGATES EXPLAIN THAT
HIS WILLINGNESS TO RETIRE

DEMANDS POLITICAL PEACE
II Agreement Can Secure That He

Method.

Niagara Fa,ls.-No conditions are
attached to Gen. Huerta's promise to
resign the Mexican presidency as
soon as his country is politically pac.
lied" His delegates to the mediation
conference took occasion to say puD.Ss
licly that he does not intend to hide
behind technicalities.
The Mexican delegation had con-.
cluded, that its recent statement SET
ting forth the attitude Of Gen. Huerta
towards demands for his retirement
was misinterpreted in some quarters.
It had been said that under the Ian.
guage Of his pledge to retire #hea
the country was. politically pacided
Gen. Euerta. might insist son holding
Office until all guerilla bands were
dispersed. On that account another
statement was issued by the Huerta
delegation. 1t reads.
''Mr. Rabaza, Of the Mexican dele.
cation has been asked what is the
Interpretation given by the Mexican
delegates to the word politically IN
the statement declaring that. Cen.
Huerta is prepared to withdraw pro-
yided that at the time of his With.
drawal Mexico. shall be politically
pacifed';; and il he thinks that an
agreement between the ty6 contend.
ing parties would spetsbe considered.
as fulfilling Gen. Huerta's condition.
:. "To the above question Mr.. Ra,
baza answers that the expression
used by the delegation does not mean
that Gen. Huerta demands the mate.
rial pacifcation Of the country nor
the dispersal of the last OF the groups
Of bandits which overrun many parts
Of it, making the revolution pretext
for their lawlessness; but, that peace
shall be assured by political means
which will guarantee for the nation
that maintenance Of Jaw and order
which is indispensable to the exercise
Of constitutional functions. The object
in view is peace. The condition is
that that object shall have been
achieved.
"If an agreement insures that end
the condition as is wei fulfilled by 1T
as by any other means"
The American delegates met with
the mediators, but consideration was
given only to questions that arose
before the matter Of the. important
issue.

Mrs. Sarah Jane Henderson

This good woman, who was
the wife Of Mr.. B. W. Hender.
son, of Brevard. N. c.. closed
her eyes, and with Christian
fortitude and submissiyeness
passed to her eternal home on
the afternoon of May 80, 1914,
at the home of her son, Mr.. r.
L. Henderson of this place, To-
gether this pair had walked life's
rugged pathway for more than
a half century. They began the
journey together when the bloom
youth was on their brows, and
and with mutual confidence and
helpfulness faced the future, not
knowing the parting of the
ways. They shared each 9th.
ers' trials, and with perfect trust
in God were enabled to over
come many sorrows and Difficult
ties.s
God blessed them with a hap
py home and spared them to see
their children grown and settled
in life. Eight children survive
her: J. A. Henderson of Eas-
ley. S. c.; Mrs II. Emma Aiken
of Greenville, S. c.; w. P. Hen
derson of Asheville, n. c.: R.
l.. Henderson, Of Picken; Mrs.
Lou E. Muse and Mrs. Maggie

T. Henderson and B. Whit Hen
derson of Brevard, n. G. One
son, J. E. Henderson, preceded
her to the grave, having died in
January. 1891.
This mother was a model
Christian. For more than fifty
years she followed the Lord and
was a consistent member of the
Baptist church. She bore her
trials and suferings with Chris
tian resignation, always trusting
in the promises to the faithful,
and when at last she reached
the end she was ready and will
ing to go.
What a beautiful sight to see
two like these for many long
years working. and striving, and
toiling. hand in hand, for the
Pearl of Great Price! She is
there now. and in a few short
DAYS he will Join her. IF she
had lived till the 9Th of August
she would have been 78 years
old and her husband is about
eight years older.
This sentiment, no doubt, is
the heart feeling Of each of he1
children, and may it be true:
Precious Mother, thou hast left US;
Thou hast crossed the swelling tide;
Thou art singing with the angels
Over on the other side.
Farewell, Mother, till we meet tffee
In the land over the sea,
Where with loved ones gone before US,
We will meet and be with thee. :"
Her remains were laid to rest
at Mt.ITabor church the day fol
lowing her death. The aged
husband and father and the chill
dren have the tender sympathy
of a host Of friends. FRIEND.
