Dear Old Edgefield Advertiser;

oedE Olu IuSeueIu AuVeILlSEI'
I am now entering into My seven
lty-ninth year, since the tenth Of this
month, and with the exception of
short period of my life / have been
reading The Advertiser since was
a ten-year-old boy.
I notice occasionally the question
is asked by some Of your correspond
ents, "Where is Uncle Iv?' And my
answer is, / am still in Georgia, ex-,
cept part Of every Friday, the day
the paper from Edgefeld comes, and
for while my mind is over there, as
I read the letters from almost all
sections of the county.
On last Saturday the 18th nine Of.
my thirteen children now living took
dinner with me. Children and grand
children in all, twenty-nine, and a
birthday cake with seventy eight lit
tie red and white candles placed in.
the center of the table land as each
one took their seats at the sable they
lit candle and after burning them.
a while they were blown out.
And the thought came to me, yes,
our lives will go out, and the verses
of two songs have been ringing in.
my ears all this week. One of the
verses goes like this:
ga few more days shall come,
A few more seasons roll,
And we will be at rest with those
that sleep beneath the tomb"
The other song mas these words
"The evening sun is sinking low,
A few more days. and I must go"
Go where? The old body of flesh
to the grave, but where does the ten.
ant of the body go? Well, It's owing
to how we have treated this tenant if
we have invited the Christ in to keep
the tenant (the soul) company, then
all is we'll with the soul. Yes, my
soul and your soul. And when death
calls us from this world, we have an I
house not; made with hands eternal
Il Ell heavens, gone
to prepare a place for all who viii i'll
accept that home.
And in closing let me say to the
young that the best time to prepare
for that home is while young. Why?
Well, you can put out little tree,
and with care make it grow up
straight, but when the tree grows
large it is too late then to straighten
it. Don't wait till old age comes on to,
prepare for eternity.
Love to all of old Edgefeld from.
