Pomaria.
Tuesday l am going with Mr.. j.
B. FELTON, from the state department
of education to have him receive
two negro buildings which have been
completed in Chappells and Bush
River. Mr.. FELTON, represents the Ro-
senwald fund by which we have been
getting $1,000 for three teacher
and $500 for a two teacner school.
Without this aid it would be impos-
sible to put up these negro schools.
Tuesday afternoon I have an ap-
pointment to meet with the ladies OF
the Improvement association of the
Pomaria school and I hope to be able
to reach there oy 80 but will come

Chappells and Bush River. Wednes-
day evening I am to meet with the
trustees of Mt. Bethel-Garmany to
talk over with them the teachers for
the coming session.

old home in Greenwood county to be
there to arrange for the reunion OF
the family which is to be held on

anniversary of the marriage of MIR.

have arranged to have some barbecue
hash and little barbecue meat and
the neighbors have been invited and
the relatives and some friends of the
family from Newberry and other
places. For the benefit of those who
are going from Newberry want to
say that the road to Chappells is fine
and the three miles from Chappells
to the Saluda river, is no worse than
it has been and that cars are travelling
it every day, and that the road be-
yond the river is fine and that you
folio wthe highway until you set
about two miles beyond the river
where you turn directly to the left,
and then you have nearly two miles
to the home. | will place sign at
this cross roads so that you may not
miss the way: All who come on the
train will get off at Dyson and we
will meet them there and take them
out and bring them back to the af-
ternoon or evening train. l was over

make a pleasat day. for all who come.
Chairman Boulware has agreed to
go with me and the engineer to Mol
flohon and Mccullough and survey
that new road we are trying get to
connect the highway with the old
road about this place. I hope we may
be able to get this5road through so
that the people Of either road may
visit one another without going so
far around. We hope to get over
there on Wednesday of this week.

berry college has accepted the invi-
tation to deliver an address at the
