A Goodbye to Sheidons.

Darlington Republican Journal: On
Wednesday of last week about ten
O'Clock in the morning, about
forty friends and neighbors of Mr.
and Mrs John P. Sheldon of Willow
Springs dashed up to their home, and
spent the day with them. The hosts
were about to leave the old home, where
the host was born and where the
hostess came as a young bride quarter
of a century ago. They have leased
their farm, built a modern house in
Darlington, and intend to move into
the city in a few days. These old time
friends and neighbors called to give
them a God speed in their going.
They came in sleighs, loaded down
with provisions. and sumptuous re-
past was served at the noon hour; and
later Col. F. E. Davisson in behalf of
the guests, addressed the hosts, and in
a few we'll chosen remarks, assured
them of the love and respect in which
they were held, not only by those
present, but the entire neighborhood.
Following his address Mrs William
Bracken stepped forward and presented
Mr. and Mrs Sheldon with beau .iful
cut glass dish, as souvenir of the
occasion, assuring them that it came
from the hearts Of their many friends.

many month to come.
These are world baking affairs, in which the

more such issues.
