Adam, Stephen, Larkin, Louis, Aaron,
Joshua, George, Anicy, and Ruth.
One is impressed with the prevalence
of Scriptural names in the list, the re-
cord goes from Adam to John. They
were simple in life, lived much out
of doors, developed strong physiques
and sterling characters. They all set
tied in South Carolina, North Caro-
lima and Georgia.
Owen and Margaret Sullivan sent
four sons and one daughter as their
contribution to the sterling citizen
ship of old Laurens county; Margaret
Sullivan married Samuel Wharton.
They settled, doubtless in a cabin on
Crane creek in Waterloo township.
Samuel Wharton was a colonel in the
Revolutionary war. All the Laurens
Whartons sprang from this honorable
family. Owen Sullivan located near
Martins depot, his Descendants moved
to Alabama. James Sullivan lived
at Boyd's crossroads, four miles south
of Laurens His last wife was a
daughter Of Samuel Boiling, one Of
the three men who first built frame
houses in the Reedy river settlement.
James Sullivan had two sons, Tully
married a daughter of Hudson Berry
and became a prosperous merchant
in old Hamburg in it's palmy days.
Henderson married Mary Downs, a
daughter l presume Of Major Jona-
than Downs. He also was a merchant
and cotton buyer in Hamburg and
Charleston. James Sullivan's daugh-
ters married John Osborn, Ezekiel
Roland, Drury Vaughn and Kit
Beag1es. Pleasant Sullivan married
Milley Kelley. He moved to Ebert
county, Georgia, where he died. His
Descendants moved back the larger
part of them into Anderson and Oco-
nee county. Pleasant Sullivan was a
soldier in the Revolution and drew a
pension in 1882.
Charles Sullivan married Mary
Charlton in Virginia. After his mar
riage he came to Laurens county
about I774 and located on Little
river, he and his two sons, Moses and
Hewlett went into the army under
Col. Jospeh Hays who was butchered
at Hays station. Hewlett was
wounded at Musgrove's Mil August
1S, 1880. After the War of Inde-
pendence Charles Sullivan bought
four hundred acres of land in Green

lin reared eight sons and four daugh-
ters. One of these sons was Judge,
two were doctors land six We're in the
legislature and senate at various
times. Virginia has just cause to be
proud of her sons who came out to
build Piedmont Carolina. Their re-
cords have been honorable; in church
and state they have served well. How
much think you does South Carolina
owe to those sterling characters who
built log cabins among the hills, and
then fought for freedom and home,
though it was but log cabin in the
hills? I repeat our unblemished his
tory is the product of the log cabin
with sterling worth within it.

m n, DEFENSE OF DOC KENNEL j.
IN WARD No. FOUR

We want to say here that the city
council says that no dog shall run at
large on the public streets OF New
berry under a penalty of $500 for
this violation. Now to avoid this
trouble we found it much better TO
construct a sufficient place to keep
our dogs where they won't be run
over by incompetent automobile drlV-
ers and speed demons. Now II 1t
were possible to have a coy corner IN
one of our small bed rooms and some
one to lead them around through the
day time then we wouldn't need this
unsanitary dog pen as you call 1t.
But as the city council has no law
prohibiting raising and selling dogs
in the city we expect to continue the
same. Now if you will inspect the
tax books you will find the owner
pays street and dog tax as the law re-
auires. And I must say while we are
raising dogs we try to raise some
that are of some value. We haven,t
wasted any time on such useless dogs
as cute little lap dogs, finger tail fee
and other useless ours that you will
find in many of our big homes. -
Now as for our health officer, l am
in deep sympathy with our friend
who l am sure has done everything
in his power to do his duty. But l
am sure there is no one man in New
berry county that could fill this place
perfectly. And now I must say If
we had more tax payers and not SO
many sight seeers then our health Of
fcer could have more help, and 1 am
sure conditions would be much better.
Now in conclusion I must say that
if No. 4 dog kennel was so unsanitary
/ am sure somesof our good neighbors
would have, reported it to the city
council, but they certainly have borne
up. well under such conditions as you
say exist.
Tax Payer.

Methodist church Charles Sullivan
was the great granfather of w. D.
Sullivan of Gray Court. Hewlett Sui
livan, son of Charles, married Mary
Dunklin from Four Hole Swamp:
Berkeley county. The Dunklin family
moved up to Greenville district soon
after the Revolution. William Dunk
lin located on the west side Of Reedy
river and James Dunklin on the east
side; hence the name Dunklin's Bridge
and Dunklin township. When the
Dunklins moved o the west David
Cowen bought their lands and the
name of the bridge was changed from
Dunklin's to Governs.

SOME QUESTIONS ANSWERED
AS TO ICE PLANT

First let me take off my hat to the
women Of the Civic League and say
son with the Dance" You are on the
road to do lots of good for the town
of Newberry, by asking questions, and
/ for one will do all l can to hold up
your hand.
Questions affecting the Oil Mill.
1st. Why take the drivers weight?
You need not take his weight, each
wagon has pair of scales and will
weigh your ice FOR you if you will re-
quest him to do so, Or better, you
weigh your own ice, for one week,
and if you do not get more ice than
you pay for l will give you all the
ice you can use for the next week.
Question 2. Why do we have to
pay war prices? This. is true, you
are paying the same price for ice
that you did during the war, for this
reason-we never raised the price on
ice during the war. We are selling
ice at the same price that we started
with IA years ago, 40, SO and 90
cents per 100 pounds. Newberry
gets her ice as cheap as any town, big
or little in. South Carolina, North
Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, or any
state in the Union. I know what l
am saying, but don't take my word
for this; ask any travelling man that
knows.
Question 8. Why do we get such
poor Service? The women who asked
this question ought to inform them
selves, for here we out-do any town
anywhere. We deliver your ice to
YOUR house, take it into your kitchen
and put it in your refrigerator. Other
ice plants deliver it to your front
door, on the front steps. We deliver
once a day, sunshine or rain. The ice
plant is open day and night, all day
on Sundays. do not deliver on Sun
days, this I will not do.
Again 1 want to say to the ladies,
don't think l have taken any excep-
tion to your asking these questions,
for,I have taken delight IN answer
ing them. I want to say, keep on
asking questions. and pointing out
ugly places.

DID SOME ONE ASK
ABOUT WARD 4?

Is there such a ward as Ward 4?
I don't think the city fathers know
anything about it if there is. Ward
/ has an alderman, Ward 2 has an
alderman, Ward 8 has an alderman,
Ward has none, Ward 5 has two.
Ward 4 gets nothing from this coun-
Gil, expects nothing. A committee
went before this council asking that
Ward might get some of this two
hundred thousand dollars spent on the
streets. Council lets US vote bonds,
and then spends the money, but Ward
A gets none.

great Southwest after he gave his
name to the creek. The name Pea
cock was still in the district in 1890.
Mr.: Mills writing of Laurens in
1925 says, marriages are early and
generally prolific. 1t is rare to find
woman of the age of twenty-five
who is not either wife or a widow.
An unusual proportion of children is
raised to maturity; from their birth
they EXHIBIT strong marks of health. :"
The following exhibit ought to con-
vince the most skeptical that the early
settlers of the old Ninety-Six district
came from a virile stock, at least
many of them. Thomas Camp lived in
Roanoke county, Virginia, and his
sons, Thomas, Nathan, Benjamin and
John Camp, settled on Reedy river in
Greenville and Laurens counties.
Thomas Camp, senior, married Wini-
fred Startling of Virginia and they had
eleven sons and one daughter; Ed
ward, Joseph, ALFRED, Starting, Will
liam, John, Thomas, Joel, Nathaniel:
Hosea, Benjamin and Elizabeth. That
was large family but the record does
not end there. Winifred Starting
Camp died and Thomas Camp married
Margaret Corney and reared an ad-
ditional family, ten sons and two
daughters: Crenshaw, James, Daniel,

ARE WE HEADED
aFOR THE ROCKS

Sometimes I almost reach the con-
clusion that Old Nick has the world
by the heels and is headed straight
for perd5tjony' remarked a Dillon
father a few nights ago. 81 don't
know what is going to become of the
next generation. 1 don't believe 1 ann
an old fogy, but the world has hit a
pace that is to fast for me, and I be-
lieve the automobile and indulgent
parents are responsible for it. In my
: day and time two or three couples
would get together and walk to par
; ty. We had lots of fun out of it. A
boy had an opportunity to talk to his
girl c~l could say nice things to her
and enjoy saying them. But there is
no walking these days. The boy must
have an automobile. If the party is
in the same block in which his girl
lives he must have $4,000 or $4,000
car to transport her back and forth.
He dresses hurriedly, rushes out of
| the house, sails into an automobile
and dashes down the street just like
his time was worth $1,000 minute.
/ If his father tells him he should walk
with his girl to and from the party
! he objects and says all the boys and
girls in town are going in automobiles
! and he doesn't want to enrbarrass his
girl by making her walk, and so there
| you are. What the parents ought to
do is to get together and put their
feet down on this fooishness. We
could start the ball to rolling by get
ting some sensible woman to give a
party and put on the invitations eau
tomobiles not allowed"
What this parent says is true. The
world is moving forward at an alarm
pace and the youth of the land are
hitting life in high spots. The auto
mobile is largely responsible. AS
some one has said, it has taken the
lplace of whiskey and it's effects are
bound to be seen in the next genera
Etion. There is something Intoxicating
about it, particularly among the
young people.
Many of the fathers of the present
day-the men at the head of affairs
used to carry their lunch to school
/ in a tin bucket. They gathered in
groups on the school grounds and en-
joyed the lunch hour. But not so in
this day and time. Boys and girls of
the high school age are above carry
ing lunch to school, and as for eating
Lon the school grounds-the suggestion
would be considered preposterous.
The most of them go to school in
automobiles and when the lunch hour
arrives they step into their automo-
|biles and go to their hcmes. The world
must go forward. but too fast pace
is dangerous. More walking and less
riding would produce harder race
| of men and women. It might pay to
get back to the good old days when
all children carried their lunch to
school and no child was Allowed to
leave the school grounds during the
lunch hour-Dillon Herald, Sept. %.

We print today an article from the

much truth in it and we advise every

to any sensible mind that the future
is gloomy unless radical charges are

pect hard sailing after inflated prices
and huge wars but that, is all the
greater reason for more industry and
frugalty. People are not working
