Clerk of Court of Edgefeld county
more than twenty years ago, he re-
moved from Johnston to Edgefeld
and was entering on the 9Th term of
office, having served the people with
great efficiency, faithfulness and good
will, and they believed in him, and
that he would look after their best
interests. He was easy to approach
and "easily entreated" as the Bible
enjoins us to be, and for this reason
bore many burdens of the people
which man of sterner mould never
could have done. His service on the
exemption board during the war
brought him many heart aches.
Mr.. Cogburn was sixty four years
of age on his last birthday. There
were five children, the eldest, Mr..
w. S. Cogburn of Greenwood, de-
ceased, and Messrs. Paul, Horace and
Carroll Cogburn, and one daughter,
Mrs. Samuel Craig, of Anderson, who
is with her mother at this time.
Mr.. Cogburn was superintendent of
the Baptist Sunday school for six
or eight years, and deacon of the
church.
The great esteem in which Mr..
Cogburn was held was manifested
most effectively in the number of
beautiful floral offerings which came,
seventy-nine in number, from organ
izations and individuals. They told
their sympathy with flowers which
send fragrance but cannot speak.
Neither can the senders speak any
adequate words of sympathy.in this
hour of bereavement. Among those
which were seen on the casket and
at the grave were offerings from the
Baptist Sunday school at large, tae
Baraca class, Mr.. Cogburn's Sunday
school class, the Edgefeld bar, the
Civic League, W. C. T. u, County
officers, U. D. c., Episcopal Guild,
Masons, D. A. R., and Missionary So
ciety.
One of the last services which Mr..
Cogburn performed in his character
istic way was acting at the request Of !:
the u. D. G.. to greet thelSold vet
fI'erans on femoriali Day, as They an
tered the hotel for dinner. One of the
members of the U. D. C. said that no
one could have substituted for Mr.
Cogburn on this occasion.
All of Edgefeld mourns with the
bereaved family in this dark hour
He will be missed on the street and
in the home and in the church and
all places where our people gather
together for good.

whence they return to the Pakhoi
Mission which they established in

He will teach chemistry and phys

Roland, the youngest, has been a
professor of physics and chemistry
at the Citadel for the past year and
will fill that position second time;

Mr.. snuggs gave very helpful
and inspiring message from his field
in China on Sunday morning at the,
Baptist church, which brought the.
China mission field in which he is.
working very near to the people who
heard him. The presence of a man

day equally as well, many of them

and varied picnic dinner was served.
There was barbecued hash, fried
chicken, chicken pie, biscuit, rolls,

pies and cake. with iced tea and cof-
fee. After the dinner all were en-
tertained with a program of music,
also short speeches. Every one felt
deeply indebted to Mrs. Edwards for
the many comforts she arranged for
the day and the many other things
she did to make the picnic the success
it was.

ION Wednesday morning the news
was sent to Edgefeld that Mr.. Cog
burn was seriously i'll, and had not
rallied perceptibly from the opera
tion, although he was conscious and
called for Mrs. Cogburn several
times, and inquired about different
members of the family and expressed
his qualification at having Mrs. Cog
burn at his bedside. They had been
married for forty-two years and those
who knew them recognized their de-

the friendship and love of the people
might have been said to be unani-

A concourse of people met the
train and accompanied the family
to the home whence he had SO recent
ly gone, and where for these many
years he had found his sweetest joys
and comforts. He was always there
when not engaged in business in his
office, and always met the passing
friends as he went and came from his
home, not only with pleasant smile
but a word of good cheer. He was
sunny in disposition, and one whom
people loved to meet. He was cour-
teous, gentle and faithful, kind to
the helpless and poor, and ready to
)lend a helping hand, or to admins

tentious, but full Of humility and
charity.

WOMANS CLUB
HEARS REPORT
OF CONVENTION
BY KoRA HENRY MEACHAM.

Some of the outstanding thlnSs
in Mrs. ]. C. Gould's report of the
state federation meeting at Ros-
we'll last month, given on Friday
at the business meeting of the
.Woman's club, were that Albu-
querque is too modest In the mat
ter of asking for honors and In the
future, delegates from the club VIII
go to the federation meeting unit
ed in purpose and with a definite
program of what they want to
present. The Albuquerque Wom-
ans club is the only woman's
club In the state that owns its own
building; it has added seventy-four
new members in the past year,
bought a new piano and a safe
and has contributed sos a month
to philanthropy.
DR.. Margaret Cartwright, IN
reporting on clubs of the state,
stressed the very original and
praiseworthy school of opportun-
ity" as developed by the Woman's
club at Gallup and operating in the
public schools there. A separate
school Is maintained for children
whose education has been delayed,
by sickness or otherwise, where
they may study with special help
and without embarrassment and
overcome their handicap.
The idea OF county federation,
as obtains In some counties, was
especially commended as a means
of better cooperation In club life.
The salient features OF the fedora .
ton brought out the fact that all
clubs are active in civic matters
striving to bring about a better
citizenship as we'll as being centers
Of philanthroplc and cultural &C
tivity.
Mrs. r. G. Winfreys enthusiastic
report on the social side of tho
federation was read by Mrs. C. C.
Meacham and proved very absorb
Ing. Many mental notes were TAX
EN- on what Albuquerque might do
for the club visitors here next year,
In the wav Of hospitality.
Two Woman's club members
distinguished themselves in an ar
tistic way at Roswell. Mrs. S. r.
Miller, who sang on the concert
program. and Mrs. Inez Westlake
who exhibited embroidering and
stenciling on dresses and hangines
at the Carnegie library and which
drew much admiring comment.
A board meeting followed the
club meeting, during which re-
freshments were served by Mes
danes c. o. Clark, j. A. Riehl. Z.
A. Watson, Homer H. Ward. and
T. p. Hanson, members of the so
cial committee.
The club voted to have no
meeting on next Friday, Armistice
day.
