Regeneration, intellectual development and

associate with criminals, are deprived of

WHAT WE SAW
No. |
BY ROSA CLIsBY JOHN

Leaving Edgefield en- route TO the
mountains of East Tennessee, we had a
wait of three hours in Columbia. The
we went only to the capitol or state
house, as all South Carolinians call it..
This is especially interesting to all Daugh-
ters of the Confederacy or to any south
erner who loves and. honors the void
South that is rapidly passing into tradi-
ton.
The old building still bears the scars
of Shermans cannon, and around 1t are
clustered monuments that show the loyal
hearts of this valiant little state.
The monument to that peerless Confed-
crate general and idoized governor-Wade
Hampton--is a bronze statue of him
mounted upon a horse standing on a
handsome gray granite base; one to the
women of the Confederacy by the men
of the state, and beautiful bronze pail
metto tree to the memory of the South
carolinians of the war of Mexico. Not
far from the statue of Wade Hampton
there stands a monumental sentinel with
his gun-erected by the women of the
State to the Confederate soldiers. On
this is the following Inscription, one Of
the most beautiful ever written:
''To the memory of those who. true to
the instincts of their birth, faithful to
the teachings of their fathers, constant
to their love for the state. died in the
performance of their duty: who have
glorified a fallen cause by the manhood
of their lives. the patient endurance of
suffering. and the herosm of death, and
who, in the dark hours of Imprisonment,
in the helpessness of the hospital. in
the sharp agony of the field, found hope
and consolation in the belief that they
would not be forgotten. These were men
whom power could not corrupt, whom
death could not, terrify, whom defeat
could not dishonor Let their virtues
plead for just Judgment of the cause
in which they persisted. South Carolina
taught them how to live and how to die
she has preserved for her children the
priceless treasure of their memory, teach
ing all who may claim the same birth
right that truth. courage and patritism
endure forever.
Not far from the state grounds is a
brilliant editor. N. G. Gonzales, who was
as much a martyr as any soldier who
ever fell on battlefield.
Continuing our journey, we passed
through Asheville, Biltmore and Tryon.
the latter place noted for its delicious
grapes so refreshing to the tired, worn
traveller.
The clouds coming over soon brought
rain. and DIS we reached Tryon it looked
