MIR. and Mrs. Chas. NJ. Mccall,
OF Trenton, y. j., were appreciated
callers at The Courier office yester-
day. They were on their way home,
having spent the past ten days in
the Mountain Rest section Of our
county with Mr.. McCall's father and
sisters. This was Mrs. McCall's first
visit to this State and she was de-
lighted with the country and the
good people Of our county. She had
a good joke OH her father-in-law, J.
p. Mccall, who, she said, told her
that her found nothing "quare"
about her but her Eastern brogue.
And the two were heartily amused
at each other The Eastern bride
Of few months found our old
friends "quare" and other peculiar
idioms quite as queer" as he found
her prediction for rolling the "r"
ending Of words so promiscuously.
But they were both good sports and
enjoyed ten days Of hearty laughs
at each other.

There are many who will learn
| with regret of the death Of W.
Stewart Floyd, which occurred last
Sunday at the county poor farm. Mr..
| Floyd llld been in poor health for
years, and few months ago his con-
dition became such that it was i'm
possible longer for his brother, Chas
| Floyd, to take the risk Of caring for
him in his home, as Stewart was
then entering the last stages of
| tuberculosis. at the same time suffer-
ing from other troubles that rem
dered him practically helpless. Mr..
Floyd was given attention at the
poor farm. where there were facili-
ties for isolation and the minimizing
Of danger to others from contact
with the fearful disease from which
he was dying slowly. Mr.. Floyd was
about 35 years Of age. He was n
son Of the late J. S. and J. M. Floyd,
and was raised to young manhood
in Walhalla, his parents having
moved to this section from Newberry
county number Of years ago. At
ter the death Of his parents Mr..
Floyd engaged in various employ
ments here and elsewhere until fail
ing health forced him to depend
upon others for support, and latterly
upon the public for that attention
that could not without grave danger
to others be given in the private
home. While death in all instances
is sad. in the present instance It
came as welcome release to this
sorely afflicted young man. The
body was taken elsewhere for burial,
Chas. Floyd, Of Seneca, coming here
for the remains and accompanying
them to their last resting place.
