Song First Written "Way Down Upon
Pee Dee River"

In a recent issue of the MENTOR
magazine there is an article of inter-
est to citizens of the Pee Dee section
The article referred to is a sketch
of the life of Stephen Foster, the au-
thor Of 10 popular songs. Among
others that he wrote were "0ld Folks
at Home" My Old Kentucky Home"
and "Old Black joe" etc. 1t is said
that the "Old Folks at Home" is the
most popular one ever written and
that even the natives in Africa and
Asia sing it. But the matter that es-
pecially interests this section is an
illustration the photograph of the
manuscript of "The Old Folks at
Home" as it was first written. 1t
shows that instead of reading "Way
down up the Swanee River" it read
Way down upon the Pee Dee River"
but he found the name of the river
did not fit the meter so he got an atlas
and hunted for river with a name
that would fit it. He chose the Swanee
River which, by the way, had no "Old
Plantations" or slaves living on it
when the song was written.
The Author lived in Pittsburg, Pa.
and had never been South except on
short trip, however most of his fa-
nous songs were written about the
South.

GRAVES IN ST. DAVID'S CEMETERY
CHERAW t

" In 1882 q stranger registered a.
Timmons Hotel, which stood on the
corner where the Cheraw Hardware
and Supply Co. store now stands. He
appeared to have money and was
gambler. A few mornings later he
was found dead in bed with his throat
cut from ear to ear. Several hundred
dollars in gold was on the table be-
side the bed and several hundred dol
lars in his trunk. The coroners in
quest was held and the jury brought in
verdict of suicide. There was great
excitement as to who he was. With
a part of the money, a metallic cofl
was bought and he was buried in an
unmarked grave near the Confederate
monument.
A few days later his brother and a
lawyer visited Cheraw and it was
found that his correct name was
HOWELL PARAMORE
The year previous Gen. Bryan
Grimes, distinguished general of the
Confederacy and then State Treasurer
of North Carolina was waylaid
shot near his home near Washington,
N. c. At the trial it was shown that
he was murdered by William Parker,
a croatan, who confessed killing him,
put testified that he was paid $100,
horse and buggy and a suit Of clothes
by Howell Paramore to commit the
deed. Paramore employed lawyers to
defend Parker and with a packed Jury,
he was acquitted, though he had con-
fessed. Soon after Paramcre was ar
rested for poisoning the well Of a
neighbor and while under bail turned
all his property into cash and skipped.
He was not heard of until his death
in Cheraw.
Parker after his acquittal went to
Virginia where he remained for eight
years and then came back to Washing
ton, N. G.. One Saturday evening
while drunk he boasted of killing Gen.
Grimes. He was arrested for disorder
ly conduct and was locked up. That
night he was taken out ard banged on
the Pamplico bridy. by unknown
parties.
1t is hard to see how the coroner
jury brought in verdict of suicide
for Howell Paramore when the bed
was saturated with blood, the cover
drawn up and about a foot from his
head on the bed sheet was the print
of bloody right hand and on the
white plastered wall two feet above
his head was the print of bloody
left hand as if some one in the semi
darkness with bloody hands had lean
ed over him.
In this day and time or thumb prints
no doubt the murderer would have
been caught.
The room in which the murder was
committed was in wing of the hotel
which stood about where M. W. Du-
wallis store now Is. AS the hotel peo-
pie could get no one to sleep in 1t after
the murder it was rented to Capt. ]. o.
Ladd for an office, he placing his desk
against the wall covering the bloody
hand print. The hotel was torn dow
in 1886 and the stores now standing
erected.
The son of Gen. Grimes, the Hon.
J. Bryan Grimes is now Secretary of
the State Of North Carolina.
Who killed Howell Paramore?

Picking -Suiyuan
Railway Is An Engi-
neering Triumph

Picking, July 1.-The Peking-
Suiyuan railway. financed and built
by Chinese, has just been completed.
1t is regarded as a triumph of Chinese
engineering skill as applied to rail-
road building. 1t extends from the
capital, 400 miles through rich but
undeveloped section, and it's con-
struction presented many difficult en-
cheering problems, and passing as it
does through various administrative
areas in two provinces. many politi-
we'll.
Projected extensions and branch
lines will afford communication with
the Yellow River district on one hand
and with the Trans Siberian system
on the other, and will open up. when
completed the great hinterland OF
kansu and Mongolia.
Work on the railway was begun in
1905 when Yuan Shih-k was sery-
ing as director general Of railways,
and the first section from PekinS to
kalgan was opened for traffic in 1910.
After that construction was suspend
ed on account of the revolution until
1912, and further interruption of five
years occurred during the European
war.
Ieh Kung -cho. the recently retired
minister of communications, finished
the work last winter. When linked
up with the Trans Siberian and with
| the proposed Picking Canton line, il
will afford the longest continuous all
rail communication in the world.
