There are many here and else
where who will regret to learn of the
death of S. w. Cox, which occurred
at his home near Seneca on Thurs
day of last week, after a long illness
extending over several months. He
is survived by his wife and four
daughters, Mrs. Lee billiard, and
Misses Sallie, Addie and Agnes Cox,
to whom The Courier joins with
hosts of other friends of the family
in extending sincere sympathy in
their hour Of sorrow. Mr.. Cox was
a splendid citizen, honest, honorable,
upright in his every dealing with his
fellow man, and he will be sorely
missed. He was probably one of
the best known farmers in Oconee,
for, besides being one Of the foremost
farmers Of his section, for many
years he was keeper Of the Ravenel
Bridge. over Seneca River, coming in
contact with travellers from every
section Of the county and many from
other sections of the State.

fresh meats Of all kinds. | also want
to buy hides, tallow and fat beef cat

At the regular monthly meeting
Of the Board Of County Commission
ers held last Friday bids were OPEN
ed for applications to serve as Stew
ard Of the county home. William r.
Cobb was reelected for the year
1915. This was the 14th time that
Mr.. Cobb has been elected to this po-
SitiOn, he having served l3 years at
the farm. During these years he
has served under several different
County Supervisors, and they have
all expressed themselves as being
thoroughly satisfied with his manage
ment OF the home and farm, as has
been fully evidenced by his continued
reelection from time to time. Mr..
Cobb is not only a fine farmer, but
one of the pest managers in the
county. Besides being reelected
annually the Board has on several
occasions, seeing the great good Mr..
Cobb is doing at the home, raised his
salary voluntarily. For the wear
1915 Mr.. Cobb was given raise OF
$50. During the past year, and for
tunately so, small crop of cotton
was raised at the poor farm, but
every available foot Of land was
in cultivation. One of the finest
corn crops in the history Of the farm
has been harvested there this wear.
