Bright Nicholsin died at his

to an attack Of typhoid fever. Mr..
Nicholson was we'll known in his sec
ton and is spoken of in the highest
terms. He was Staunch member
Of the Village Creek Baptist church
and will be greatly missed in his
church and community. He is sur
vivcd by his wife and two children,
father, brothers and sisters and
many friends. Funeral services
were held at Bethlehem Baptist
church on Saturday morning, the ser
vices being conducted by Rev. L. b.
Norton, of Walhalla. There are

sincere sympathy in their sorrow.
Andrew A. Manning returned
last Friday from Richmond, where
he attended the Confederate reun-
ion. Mr. Manning went as mem
ber of Governor Manning's staff. the
title of "COlonel' being properly his.
Col. Manning was greatly pleased
with the occasion, the various events
being so thoroughly charming that
not even extreme anti-reunion wea-
ther could dampen his ardor. Ac-
cording to his version every young
lady within a radius of 100 miles of
Richmond is veritable beauty.
During The reunion Col. Manning had
the honor and great pleasure Of meet
ing and cOnversing with Mrs. A. p.
Hin, Mrs. J. f. B. Stuart and Mrs.
Pickett, widows of we'll known and
greatly beloved Confederate generals.
