comrades. We made connections at
Spartanburg, but had to Law over
about eight hours at Blacksbury, got
dinner and supper and the old Vets
passed off part of the time in an old
time experience meeting. Well, I did
not know there were so much sheen
stealers during the war. One old
brother said he never stole anything,
another said to him, "You made a
mighty poor soldier then" One told
while in Virginia, he and another
friend were planning for a chicken
raid. Said he knew where there were
plenty, but his friend must do the
climbing. The other said all right,
so they struck out that night. When
they got to the old negro's house
where they were to get their game
they stopped near the old negro's
door. The old gray haired negro was
down at his evening devotion praying
for the poor, hungry and cold Con-
federate soldiers, asking the good
Lord to feed and take care of them
and let them get back home to their
mothers and wives and children. Said
he to the other fellow, eve will not
take any of his chickens" The other
fellow said, "Psham, don't talk that
way, we will get them. l know where
there is a bad negro; we will get
his" So they went and got his. We
left Blacksburg that night via Hick-
ory Grove and York and landed at
Rock Hill about II p. m. and was i'm
mediately assigned to our homes and
cars to carry us there. There was
no tenting out or lying on cots, but
everyone had a good bed to sleep in
and supper and breakfast served ard
we all eat dinner in a large hall,
where the good ladies waited on us.
Of all the reunions I have ever at
tended Rock Hill is in the lead. The
Winthrop college gave us reception
one evening and we surely had a
good time with all those pretty girls.
Two of them took me up in the chap
ell where they were to have singing,
etc, and my old friend, j. G. Long,
Sr., treated me rather bad I intro
duced them to him and he took charge
of one of them. Well, that was all
right, for if a fellow can be talked
to death one can do that After the
singing we were carried in to another
room and was served cream and cake
by those sweet girls. I was assigned
to the home of Rev. r. A. Miller,
one of my old company, and Pres
byterian minister and he and Mrs.
Miller know how to make one feel
at home. G.. II. G..

is the 18th day OF May and still dry,
and it seems to be looking gloomy
for cotton and the farmers are get
ting blue for there is no good stand
of cotton and it is getting late now
for cotton. Some think their seed

what the future will bring. Those
who have old cotton on hand will like
ly get a good price for it.
Mr.. A. d. Plexico and 1 were in
Cherokee county last week spending
few days visiting relatives and
friends. Also visited the county seat,
Gaffney.
We stopped at the home of Mr..

vile, where we were treated with kind
hospitality.
Sunday we were at Elbethel
church, where memorial services were
held. Met many Cherokee people and
some from other sections as several
counties were represented. A very
large gathering of people were pres
ent to take part in the memorial SER
vices.
Mothers Day was observed also as

program for the children, many little
children saying speeches. Music

Gaffney with the organ player. The
music was fine. Rev. Pentuff and
Prof. Dobson of Gaffney were speak
ers for the occasion.
Well, l am saying a good deal about

Messrs. w. r. Elliott and w. H.
Barton of Clemson with Mr.. Carnell
of Union, our demonstration worker,
were all at the Gault school house last
Thursday night, where they made
good talks on various subjects of
farming and growing clover and 9th
er things for the land. These talks
were very interesting, as we should
sow more clovers and such as to
build up our lands. And then we
would not have to use any fertilizer
I know one man who doesn't buy any
guano now for he has improved his
land by sowing and his land has i'm
proved so much now that he doesn't
need to buy fertilizer. We all ought
to do the same. Moxy.

MOTHERS WORDS
INSPIRE GOVERNOR
Square Deal Demanded That
He Veto Full Grew Law
Repeater, He Says

Governor Brumbaugh to-day told
the members of the legislative COM
mittee of the Brotherhood of Railroad
Trainmen, representing 102 lodges and
10000 members, that he had vetoed
the bill to repeal the full crew law
because he thought 1t was the square
deal to do so and that in so doing he
had followed the teachings of his
mother, who had impressed upon him
the Importance of standing for the
right.
The committee visited the Capitol
after the reception to the Methodist
laymen and were presented by the
officers. The Governor shook hands
with all of them and was asked for a
speech. He at once spoke on the full
crew repeal bill and was applauded
vigorously.
When asked to outline his housing
bill the Governor said that he planned
a general bill for the state which would
provide cleaner better homes for~the
men and women and for the children
who will be the men and women of
to morrow. The railroad men pledged
him their support.

sum of a story, twice sobbingly re-

rather hilarious in the Senate cafe,
and not caring for too much excite

have them quiet the disorder.
Taken to the stationhouse' she at
tempted to kiss the Mayor and as no
one appeared with a charge against
her, she was discharged. This morn
Ing she again called at the police sta
