Because when you were born it was the home paper that in troduced you to the world. 2. When you grow up and graduate at the head of your class the home paper again gave you a nice write-up about it. 3. When later you found your life companion and were hap pily married the home paper gave you and your bride a half column free complimentary ac count of the affair. '• 4. When sickness and misfor i. tunc invaded your home, the V sad news was distributed among '•your friends and relatives through the medium of the home paper. 5. When you have been suc cessful in life or had been promoted to sonic important position perhaps it was the home paper that heralded your abil ity. 6. If you sold out and remov ed to another location, the home paper followed and brought the I news from friends and neigli- Pik hors. 7. When some unscrupulous 'wTcrson tried to injure your fldiaracter, it was the home paper pi hat came to your aid. 8. Because the home paper your town and its in .vitutions, its people, its schools .land churches and helps to pro j mote good fellowship through { out the community. 9; Because the live merchants advertise their most attractive goods and best or lowest bar gains in the home paper, which if bought may save you many dollars. 10. And last, when you arc finally laid to rest in your silent grave the home paper donates much space in giving your rela tives and friends a complete his tory of your past life, extolling ft your excellent qualities and r passing over many frailties. l-v ■ OBITUARIES.

MEADERS OXNER SHOT AND KILLED His Negro Slayer Colyar Barksdale, Being Hunted by Sheriff and Possees. Laurens, S. C., Sept. s.—Laurens County officers, including the rural police force arc prosecuting a vigor mis search tonight for Colyar Barks (lale, a negro farm hand, who is al leged to have killed his employer. Menders Oxner, at the negro’s house, about one mile west of Kinards, on the Laurens county side from the Newberry County line. The killing occurred last night, hut was unknown to the public until this morning. Sheriff Reid and other officers began a search for Barksdale during the morning and continued it throughout the day. It is sai dtliat Barksdalt’s wife was at home when the shooting oc curred and her testimony of the tradegy is about all that is known. It seems that Oxner, who lived near l he house of Barksdale inquired into the absence of Barksdale from his work yesterday and was told by the woman that her husband was work ing at a saw mill. Later Oxner re turned to the house when it is said Barksdale raised a window and shoot ing commenced, with Oxner standing in yard. Barksdale, used a shot gun, fired a charge of small shot into Ox ner. striking in the left breast and left arm Barksdale was shot in the arm with a pistol hall. Barksdale then carried the body of Oxner to the barn and placed it in a stall with the stock. Here it was found this morning Oxner was about sixty years of age and a bachelor. Coroner Owings held the inquest this afternoon. SEEKING INFORMATION. In about the year 1833 I have a faint memory of sitting on some boxes I suppose to have been pack ed with household goods and a ne gro woman I suppose to have been a slave who had been my nurse or eared for me kissing me and crying saying she would never sec me again; then it seems I traveled in a wagon drawn by two horses and driven by a negro called “Joe.” In this wagon was a woman, myself and this colored driver. We had gone quite a ways when we met a hoy driving a team of oxen, the first 1 had ever seen. This boy got into the wagon and accompanied ns on the balance of journey. I al ways knew him as John Williams, but he was a stranger I am sure. We traveled for a long time and finally arrived in Jefferson County, Indiana, about 2 miles from the county seat of Madison and stopped at Allen Blackfords, remaining there a short time. My supposed to be aunt went to housekeeping and stay ed there until her death, which was when I was about 10 years of age. She told me my name was Frances Rebecca Cowlin or “Cowlan** and that we came from Louisvi le, Ga., she was known as “Mrs. Rebecca Coonsc or Koonse” and I called her “Aunt Becky.” The old colored man was a slave and as I remember it they were later trying to get hold of him as he was a slave belonging to a man named Gilbert hut he dis appeared and they told me he went to Canada. At my supposed to he aunt's death she prior to her death arranged for a Mr. Dean to take me which they did, and I remained with them until grown. I married Richard Mcyer holz or Miles as they are now known and went to housekeeping on a farm, at Marble Hill, Jefferson Cos., Iml., where I lived a I my married life and raised a family of ten children to man and womanhood. This is the story as told me by Grandmother Miles. She lias neglected trying to get the history of her past but now in her declining years If she could get n:iy information as to relatives or her past it would he a source of comfort and in her behalf as a grand daughter if this should catch the eye of any one who might he able to throw some true light on her early life just communicate it to me for her benefit.
