for better or for worse" was his apos-
trophic declaration, made while he was
turning into Shawnee street q few
doors from his lodgings; and minute
later he was opening the Widow Hol'
combs gate.
The house was dark and apparently
deserted as to its street-fronting half
when he let himself in at the gate
and ran quickly up the steps. The
front door was open, and he remem-
bered afterward that he had wondered
how the careful widow had come to
leave 1t so, and why the hall lamp
was not lighted. From the turn at
the stairhead he felt his way to the
door of his study. Like the one below,
it was wide open; but someone had
drawn the window shades and the in
terror of the room was as dark as a
cavern.
Once, in the novel.writing, follow
ing the lead of many worthy predeces-
sors, Griswold had made much Of the
sixth" sense; the subtle and indetin-
able prescience which warns its pos
SCISSOR of invisible danger. No such
warning was vouchsafed him when he
leaned across the end of the writing
table, turned on the gas and held a
lighted match over the chimney Of the
working-lamp. It was while he was
still bending over the table, with both

smashed and thrown away, sat the

and drawn the window shades and
otherwise prepared the trap.

playthings, Mr.. Griswold," said the
man quietly. Keep your hands right
where they are, and tell in which
pocket you've got the other one"
Griswold laughed, and there was a
sudden swapping of invisible bonds.
He dismissed instantly the thought
that Charlotte Farnham had taken him
at his word; and if she had not, there
I! was nothing to fear.

while ago." he said. Reach your free

Since you're clothed in your right mind,
we'll get down to business. First, I'll
ask you to hand over the key to that
safety-deposit box you've got in Mr..
Grierson's bank"
Griswold took his bunch of keys
from his pocket, slipped the one that
was asked for from the ring, and gave
it to his captor.
"Of course I'm surrendering it under
protest" he said. "You haven't yet
told me who you are, or what you are
holding me up for"

R. F. SMITH
Life is g, sheet of paper white:

Life is Sheet of paper white;
Whereon each one Of US may write
His word or two, and then comes night
The sunset of life came to DR.. R. F.
Smith just west of the ffty-sixth mile
stone and before streak of gray had
touched his hair. This seems young to
die, but life is not measured by the
space of years but by what one feels,
thinks, believes and does. He, as most
successful men do, spent his boyhood
days in natures training school-on the
farm. He was reared in the upper Sec
ton of Anderson county, near old
''Thalian Academy" so long presided
over by that famous teacher, John L.
Kennedy. Here he laid the foundation
of his education. He then spent two
years at Adger college, located at Wal
halla, where he stood at the head of his
class. He had reasoning bent of
mind and, consequently, delighted in
the study of mathematics. He COM
pleted his literary education at the Uni
versity of Virginia, where he was 8
college mate Of President Woodrow
Wilson. He then took special med
ical course at Jefferson college, Phila-
delphia, and in New York university.
He then gave his attention to the prac-
tice of medicine for number of years
in the section where he was raised, at
Gainesville, Ca, and at Easley. In his
profession he was eminently successful
and soon distinguished himself. But his
great knowledge of men, his keen in
sight into business affairs, connected
with the necessary exposure which at
tended the practice of medicine, led
him to enter active business life. In
this he was eminently successful. Every
thing he touched succeeded, his own
affairs and every corporation he organ
lied and managed. The fact that he
headed a corporation meant its certain
success. He eorganized and stood at the
head of the Easley Loan and Trust COM
pany and number: of industrial cor
porations, every one of which succeeded
and are now paying handsome divi-
dends. No stockholder ever lost his
money in the hands of DR.. R. F. Smith.
It took great amount of activity to
successfully steer all these business in
terests, but there was in DR.. Smith
deep love Of public questions and from
bis busy life he always EXTRACTED, suG
fclent time to study them and help
work out what was for the public well
fare. He took great interest in all
municipal, county, state and federal
questions. Into each he never hesitated
to put his time, his energy, his brains
and his money.
In politics he stood for honor and
principle and believed that the people
with a fair chance would always work
out what was best for the common good.
He believed II, enlightenment and

cctoolhouses and churches. For nearly

In Memory of Samuel Young

On Friday, January s, 1915,
Mr.. Samuel Young after a long
illness, went to be with his Lord.
Mr.. Young was born near Able

His father was William Little
Young, ard his mothers name
was Miss Kizzie Bryant While
a young man he moved to Pick
ems county, where the remainder
of his life was spent. He was
united in marriage to Miss Mile
Smith, daughter Of Joseph
Smith, Mrs Young preceded her
husband to the grave several
years ago.
Five children survive this unicn,
as follows: Messrs. Thomas W.
and Arthur Young, Miss Addie
Young and Mrs. T. A. Gary, all
of Liberty, and Mrs. D. G. Moore,
of Summerville, s.. G. He be-
longed to a large family, most.
of whom survive him, viz: Mr..
James ?. Young and Mrs.
Annora Jones, of Lavonia, Ga;
William ". Young, of Halle

Mrs. Della Davis, Due West, S.
c.; Robert Young, Austin
Young, Mrs. Mamie Wilson,
AbbeviIIe county, S. c.; Mrs.
Mollie Nance, Lowndesville, S.
&C.; and Walter Young. of Bra
dentown, Fla.
When a young man, Mr..
Young united with the Baptist
church at Enon and his mem
bershipwas later held at Liberty.
AS a young man Mr.. Young
was engaged in carrying the
mail, although most of his life
was spent in farming.
For the past seven years Mr.

conducted by Rev. John G..

beside his wife in the Mullinax

formed a personal attachment
to him, and received the news
of his death with sorrow. Our
deepest sympathies 20 out to
the bereaved ones, may the
Lords blessings abide upon
them and give them strength to
bear the loss. Mr.. Young told
his pastor that he was ready,
and did not fear the end. Death
is not so awful when we have
the assurance of a glad reunion
by and by, and then we as fol-
lowers. of Christ must belieye

and that all things work TO-

God, our Father, makes no
mistakes. 1.-The Lord gave, the
Lord hath taken away. Blessed

While his loved ones grieved be-
cause of his absence, yet they
are sustained by Gods grace
and the hope of happy re-
union in heaven. God bless the
loved ones whose hearts are be-
reaved, and may they be willing
to say. Thy will' be done.
