Williamsburg survivors of the Con-

cause. men who followed the flag in
the early COS, switch meant hardship
and strife. 1t was Memorial day, and
there were forty or fifty old veter-

and condole the misfortunes they
had met with in a cause they all be-
lieved to be just and right. Veter-
ans were present from Williams
burg. Berkeley. Clarendon and Flor
ence counties. who were members Of
Pressley's brigade during the war.
The occasion also marked the an
nual meeting of the Camp Presley
veterans. This meeting was held in
the court house in the forenoon, just
prior to the opening of public serv-
ices in the Thomas opera house at
1890 o. M. when a highly interest
ing programme was carried out un-
der the auspices of the U D Cs, as
sisted by the faculty of Kiugstree
High and Graded school. The chief
features of the programme were the
presentation of picture of Jeffer-
son Davis, President of the Confcd-
crate States, by the U D C's to the
Kingstree High school, and the ad-
dress by Prof Yates Snowden of the
University of South Carolina.
Special music was furnished by
Misses Sturgis. Thorn and McCants.
Mrs L w Gilland and Mr. w H Carr.
The singing of war songs by the
school children was highly enjoyed
by the veterans. The exercises were
opened with prayer by Rev P S
McChesney. The prize essay was
written by Hills Phillips. of the high
school. The prize was awarded by
Hon E C Epps. The presentation of
President Davis picture to the school
was made by Miss Maude Logan and
accepted on the part of the school
by Mr. Hayward Brockinton.
After the conclusion of the pro-
gramme at the opera house the vet
Grams marched to Central warehouse,
where delicious dinner was served

CONFESSIONS OF A WIFE
ALETTER FROM MOLLIE

l am having Qeluge OF CORE

this morning. She and Chad are in
Florence, or heaven she puts it.
ooh, Margie," she writes, 81 wish
everyone in all this world was as
happy as am.
''The loveliest thing about Chad is
that he loves the same things l do.
This morning remarked that l
wanted to go to all the places men
toned in George Elliott's 'Romola'
and that as supposed the pilgrimage
would bore him to death he might be
excused for the day.
''He looked at me rather queerly
for a moment and said: 'Mollie, how
did you guess that 1 asked you to
come to Florence for that very pur-
pose? am old-fashioned enough to
think that "Romola" is one of the
sweetest books l ever read, and have
wanted all my life to visit the places
that George Elliot has pictured as
having known her heroine
''Margie, am so happy that l am
afraid. l am sure that the fates will
be jealous. And here is the queer
part of it, Margie 1 know that Chad's
first wife has helped to make me
happy. You see She was so selfish
and self-centered that she never did
anything he wanted to do if she could
help it. She did not like books-nor
out-of-doors, nor anything, as far as
1 can learn from little things that
Chad intimates unknowingly, except
to deck her person and attract atten-
ton to herself
"Chad is so appreciative of every
thing and he is considerate of me and
my little foibles. Dick seemed to
think would get tired of having him
always around. He said: "A woman
is a fool to marry man that has no
interest il. lie but herself

hands only interest the most wOn-

yet, LOT CnaQ always nndS something
TO say to me and always have new
idea that have not yet told him.
Last night talked to him about
you, Margie, and what you had done
for me, how you had helped me.
When Dick married Margie,' 1
said, I was just drifting about. had
no ambitions, no particular stand .,
ards. was ready to f1irt with almost
any good-looking chap to whom 1
was introduced. Having a good time
was my only business in life.
81 thought Margie an awful prude
at first, and then came to see that
she was not prudish at all
Her standards were those of self
respect and respect for the rights of
others.
81 think she is the one woman in
all the world who sees other fellows
points of views.
"'She never looks at the world in
relation to herself, but always views
herself in relation to the world.
"'She has. never said in all her
life 81 could not do that or l could
only do this" neither did she say to
me you must do that only this way"
What she said to me was of the
most encouraging nature for it was
always Think it out for yourself,
child. Remember that everything
must be paid for in this world. Count
the cost to yourself and to those you
love, and then if you determine that
what you want to do is the thing to
do, go ahead and do it, and above all,
don't whine if it comes out differently
than you expected
81 told him, Margie, you were too
good for Dick, and he said any good
woman was too good for any man.

after an operation which was per-
