Rev. N. G. Ballenger, once pastor of

charge of the Seneca circuit, was in our
city last week shaking hands with his
old friends. Mr.. Ballenger was very
popular while here, and we were glad

We are sorry to state that our fellow
townsman, J. Med. Bruce, has not been
quite robust for some time past. Last
week he went to Baltimore and con-
suited specialist, who put him on
special diet without medicine. We trust
the indisposition is nothing serious and
that Mr.. Bruce may soon be stronger
than ever before. K,
j. M. Childrcss, one of our good cit-
zens who moved to Georgia three years
ago, moved back to the same house he
left, few miles west of Pickens. He
has decided that there is no place like
home provided that home is in Pickens
county We extend to him and his
family cordial welcome.
Oscar Williams, colored, is in Jail here
for cutting his father, Warren Williams,
a blacksmith at Central, his mother
and sister at their home late Sunday
evening. 1t seems that Oscar was crazy
drunk and proceeded to carve up the
whole family. Warren is the most
severely injured and may die from his
wounds. While the women are severely
cut their wounds are not serious.
The large and attentive audience Fri
day night was highly appreciated by
the faculty of the Pickens graded school.
Thel$34 which was taken in will be used
to improve the class rooms. An item
lied account spent on each room will be
given to the public later. The teach
ers of the school wish to thank those
who SO kindly lent them articles, and
especially do they thank those who as
sisted in the play.
