Heaven is a goodly land;
And God is love; and those He

Now thou dost understand;
The least thou hast is better than

The new life opens fair;
Before thy feet the blessed jour-

And heaven to thee is all sweet

year, when his little son, Ned, was
nine years old. Mr.. Nicholson also
leaves little son nine years of age.
He was educated at the South Caro-
lima University, and studied law in
the office of Sheppard Brothers, and
was admitted to the practice of law
about 1898.
He was married to Miss Helen
Sheppard in June 19O4,s beginning
his first term in the House of Repre-
sentatives the following January,
serving two terms. He also served
four years in the Senate, and if he
had completed this term would have
served eight years in that body where
he was held in high esteem for his
splendid moral qualities and superior
judgment, making him leader OF
unusual ability.
At recent meeting of the Mason
ic Grand Lodge in Charleston, he was
elected Junior Warden.
Edgefeld had no citizen more low
ed nor one more useful and unselfsh.
He was kind, sympathetic, approach
able and honorable, always ready to
lend a helping hand or give word of
counsel. Some one has said that the
sin of this age was lack of respon-
siveress. This could not be attribu
ted to our departed friend.
During the period of the war, Mr..
Nicholson had conducted two finan-
cial campaigns, one for the Red
Cross, the other for the United War
Drive, the last being directed from
his bed during the first attack of in
fiuenza.
In all his dealings with men and
affairs, he was above reproach and
without reproach, interested in every
movement for the community good,
giving of himself and his means with
out stint.
The funeral services were conduct

Tribute TO Mrs. w. L. Thinner.
man

The Ropers community was great
ly saddened on the eve of January
Is, 1919, when Mrs. W. L. Thinner
man died after a weeks illness of
infuenza-pneumonia.
"Mary Lizzie" as she was affec-
Itionately called, was yet young
woman, the idol of her husband and
nine children, the joy and light of
her home, but God in His wisdom saw
fit to take her to her home in heaven.
To know her was to love her, for
never have we known anyone with q
more amiable disposition. She was
quiet and gentle in her manner, hav-
ing smile for every one. She was
generous and public spirited. Due to
her interest in war work, a Red Cross
Auxiliary was organized at Ropers,
of which she was chairman.
She was earnest and faithful in
her work in the Noman's Missionary
Society, being the efficient secretary
and treasurer of the neighborhood
circle, always rendering her part Of
the programme in an interesting way.
She will be sorely missed, but we
bow to the will of God knowing "He
doeth all things we'll" May her beau
tiful character shed its influence a
long the pathway of her heart-strick-
en- husband and children.
The body was laid to rest in the
Sweetwater Cemetary. Mrs. Thinner
man was a member of Republican
church. Her pastor, Rev. j. W. kes-
terson, conducted the funeral ser
vice.
A devoted friend.

RED OAK GROVE.
Mr.. Yancy Dorm Buried at the
Grove. Mrs. Sarah Brooks
Dies in Her 76
Year.

The announcement of the death of
Hon. B. E. Nicholson cast gloom
over our entire community, for he
had many warm friends here to
whom he so many times has proven
a real friend. Though he is no more
with us, his influence, ever liveth to
make better the lives of his fellow
men by his having dispensed a life
SO pure and noble His going seems
mysterious, being so useful, active
and young, but our dear Father
''doeth all things we'll"
One by one, the once large family
of Mr.. and Mrs. G. W. Dorm has
passed away, leaving only five men,
bers. Mr.. Yancy Dorm of Augusta
being the victim of influenza, died
on the 18th, and was buried at Red
Oak Grove tht following day. He uni
ted with this church in his childhood.
Those surviving him are, Mrs. Mamie
Walker, Mrs. Press Parkman, Messrs.
j. B., G. M. and W. NJ. Dorm, all of
this section, and a host of nieces and
nephews. Their many friends extend
heartfelt sympathy to them in the
sudden departure Of their brother,
making the occasion doubly sad by
the community all around being in
the midst of sickness, and so few
able to even render their presence on
this sad occasion.
On the 25 of January, this commu-
nifty was again called upon to lay to
rest one of the eldest members of
Red Oak Grove church, Mrs. Sa~:.h
Brooks. She had been in failing
health for long time, but the end
came very suddenly. AS her strength
had greatly improved, she went for

Floral offerings came from the
county of Edgefeld, the Bar Associa-
tion, The Banks of Edgefelds and
Trenton, and many others from or
ganizations and individuals, covering
the last resting place of one who will
be sorely missed in the councils of
state, and in the affairs of Edgefeld
county and town, and in his own de-
voted family.
Besides his beloved wife, he leaves
five chSiiren, Helen, June, Ned, Eliza
beth sad John; his mother, Mrs.
Elizab.th Nicholson, and sisters Mrs.
Thos. Il Rainsford, Mrs. Halle N.
Grene.ser, Miss Sallie Mae Nicholson,
and brothers Robert of Cedar
Grove" the old home, and W. H.
Nicholson of Greenwood.
Everything was done for him that
physicians and nurses and devoted
family and friends could do. He was
cut off in his prime and in his great
est day of usefulness. With all his
serious and earnest nature he was
also of a cheerful, merry nature and
would have been young a long time
and filll of good works in his church
and Sunday School where he had
been superintendent for number of
years.
No,~ane knows why he has gone.
Some one said perhaps he was too
good for this world" so we will ac-
cept that as the reason, and try to
think of him in that wonderful COM
partnership of the saints on high, and
say with Longfellow when he lament
ed tkszearly and tragic death of his
youngand devoted wife:
"Ohs though oft depressed and
lonely,
All my fears are laid aside
II ! but remember only
Suchas these have lived and died. !"

Real Estate Changes.

Mr.. John w. Quarles has sold his
farm near Antioch, where he now re-
sides, to his brother, Mr.. Carey
Quarles, and has purchased the very
desirable farm OF Mr.. N. D. Lyon in
South Edgeield. AIr. Quarles will
come to Edgefeld to reside the first
of next year. Mr.. Carey Quarles sold
his farm near Antioch where he now
lives, to Mr.. T. P. Lyon. By these
changes Antioch will lose a good citi-
zen and Edgefeld will gain one.
Edgefield can always make room for
such men as John Quarles. Men of
his type are a valuable asset to any
community.

early hours of Monday morning at
his home in Columbia, after an illness
of several weeks. The direct cause of
his death was located in his throat
and tongue, and for some time he has
been speechless and recently, uncon-
scious.
Mr.. Wertz was the oldest son of
Mr.. and Mrs. O. S. Wertz of this
place, being nearly 46 years of age,
and was reared here. His death was
learned with deep regret, for he had
warm friend in every one. During
his boyhood days here, every one
knew him as bright, courteous and
pleasant, and as he grew into man.

noble Christian gentleman. He was
a member of the Lutheran church.
