In Honor of Judge Wilson.

Something of an en- banc session
of the local bar was held last even
ing at the home of S. M. Smith, Esq.
on Jeter street. Mr.. Smith was
hostess to his brethren of the bar,
the court officials and visiting at
torneys, with Judge Wilson and
Gen. U. r. Brooks as guests of
honc77 There were about 25 guests
present. Such an aggregation of
legal lore is seldom witnessed. Soon
after the guests arrived they were
invited into the dining room where
an elaborate dinner was beautifully
served in courses. The evening
spent in this hospitable home will
be pleasantly remembered by those
who were honored with invitations.

ions. Delegates to the council at
New Orleans were due to be elected,
but as none of the members could
attend, Mrs. Visanski of Charleston,
who is an honorary member, and
will attend, will be the delegate.
The author studied this afternoon
was Tennyson, and Mrs. J. A. Lott
acted as leader. A criticism on
''Idylls of the King" was well given
by Miss Eva Rushton, and "Pellias
and Ettaire" was read by Mrs. G.
D. Kenney. After this had been
enjoyed, the hostess assisted by Mrs.
John Mobley, served an elaborate
repast of sliced turkey, cranberry
sauce, salads, beaten biscuit, sand
wiches, pickle and coffee.
Mr.. and Mrs. F, S. Bland most
charmingly entertained on Monday
evening in compliment to Mrs. L.
E. Stansell. There were twenty
four present, and six tables of an
animated game of Rook was had,
and when this was concluded, the
honoree was given beautiful piece
of handwork. Miss Elberta Bland
assisted the hostess in serving a
tempting salad course.
Mrs. Archie Lewis entertained on
Wednesday afternoon tor her friends
Miss Annie and Norine West of
Bennettsville. Miss West is a
charming young woman, and every
one was delighted to know her.
Progressive Rook was the chief oc-
cupation, and the honoree was pre-
sented with box of dainty crepe
de-chine handkerchiefs, when the
score was counted up. A delicious
salad course was served, Mrs. A. P.
Lewis assisting.
Mr.. and Mrs. w. J. Hatcher gave
a lovely six o'clock dinner recently
for Mrs. L. E. Stausell, there being
about six couples present. The
time was spent in conversation and
sweet music, and the course dinner
served was in most attractive style.
The place cards were unique ones,
representing some characteristic of
the individual.
Miss Marion Boyd entertained on
Saturday evening in honor of her
cousins, Miss Mary Essie Morgan,
and Ronald Morgan of North Au1
gusta. A bright and happy time
was had, and progressive Rook was
also enjoyed. A sweet course was
most prettily served. Mr.. and Mrs.
Boyd assisted in making the evening
one of 80 many pleasures, and all
were, reluctant to depart.
