JEsUI*. GeOUGIA, JULY IS. 1877.
A Trip to St Simon’s Island-
Promises to write can only be met by
‘•copy.” So licrc goes. I know of
nothing more interesting, to me at
loift, than a rocent trip which I made
to St. Simon’s Island, near Brunswick.
Tlio trip was made on th§4th of July.
Not from any very gushing feelings of
patriotism which struggled for utter
ance, but because it was a gala day
ami many boats were plying between
Brunswick and the Island, and furo
was reduced. Eailv in the morning,
in company with Rev. Dr. Griffith and
wife of Blackshenr, Kev. Air. Abbott
nnd wife of Brunswick, and llev. .Mr.
Griffith of Darien.
We tool: pansago on the little slcam*
er “Eureka.” There were a good
many other excursionists also on board
who, like ourselves, were out hunting
pleasure.
Tbo hoot was small, but by crowding
wo managed to have room enough to
rnako tbo trip. We landed at the
famous mills of Dodge. Meigs & Cos.
I went on a tour of inspection and
found their furnaro down and tho boil
ers scattered about the yard. This
in new mill ond I was very much sur
piiscd to find it so. Enquiring the
cause, wns told that tho boilers were so
badly burned that they hud to bo re
moved. Defective masonry alleged as
tho cause. They must have a quantity
of money or elec such mistakes will
soon break thorn. I, however, must
record my endorsement of their wis
dom in repairing as soon as they saw
tho ncecssity. Many others governed
by avarice would have continued to
run, endangering not only property',
but human lifo. I do hope they may
liavo bettor luck this time.
The objective point of my party was
Froderico nnd the historic “Wesley
Oak.” Through the kindness of Moss
P. Footo and Abbott, a wagon and a
pair of mules, with a trusty driver, was
on lmnd to take us through, a distanco
of seven miles Tho sun was un
clouded, tho road open and sand-fields
were on overy side. Oh I how hot the
prospect looked All wpio ttopplicd
.vithjumbrellas except myself. Oppor
tunely friend Stacy cainc up and kindly
loaned mo his. It luu been returned,
wittijnmuy thanks. I’lenty of ice mul
provisions on hand, n morry crowd we
atnrtnd. On tho wny wo slopped at the
“ Baloholor don ” of M ss. Foole &
i'uyfor. There wo cat watermelons and
tlraiik ioo-waler. I ventured lo advise
Foote lo hunt a “ Head," I ondorso
him n a good Foole, if any of my fair
friends get n elianoo at him; Thou
onward wo w< nt by turns serious and
t y. About uoou we arrived at tho
old church and cemetery. Near by
lands the oak under which tradition
lias it that Jotiu and Chnrlo* "Wesley
preached when they wero missionaries
to Georgia in 173 G-7: Tho trees are
stalely and tiro forest grand. What a
feting placo for retirement and medita
te >n. The old church, built by whom
and when I do not know, is ready to
fud. The scats and alter have been
removed; tho roof rotten and every
t:i:i g indicates that in a few years morn
it will bo but a heap of luhbish. I
t 'l’ul many stems marking the rcst
i : places of many of the former in
-1;• I itants of the island. As 1 walked
i! ’■ 'orh this resting place of the dead,
v. .lithe Gormans call “ God’s aerr,”
1 V.t very forcibly the responsibilities
f life, and wondered about tho devel
n . its of death, living, dying, and
wirin’* history in brief. What
alter •hath? Who can tell but tho
J old from Heaven Our little gr> up
: ■ iued under tho Wesley oak, after
w! :oh Her. Mr. Hayes ma lea brief
?• ,'iveut concerning tie visit of tire
"W sh \s to the island. Then wo sung
ll'.’ v. rid popular hymn of Charles
We- y, “Jesus Lover of my Soul."
Ivt'v, Dr. Gritlith load in an earnest
pi . v r that tho God of the Wesleys
would be our God. Benediction was
proroe ced, and we returned to Bruns
wick tint night. The day is a sacred
ono in my memory.
This article is already too ioug. I
could mite more. May do so if your
readers so desire, lours truly, H.
Watermelons will meet with a warm
rrcc tie: at this cilice. Our devil says
i i.s ’-rot is too loose by half and that
thing l ut a rel moat and black seed
watermelon can tiyhteu them.

WE ARE CONSTANTLY IN RECEIPT OP A GREAT MANY INQUt
ries from nil parts of this State and ITlorirla, so that \v find it almost impossi
ble to answer each inquirv s-purntelv. YVe now take this reeili'-d to explain
to the readers of tho SENTINEL all iHoJ pi culprs necessary for them to
know:
'’l. We will send vamnle. tunny onsjwho will write n-> fur them, with price at
tached, provided a 3 eept posture stamp is enclosed and every nr'iele mention
ed which-parties dcs're, and can he sampled; but do not write us to send you
samples of everythin?, for that is impossible. Write ns for snmoles of suck
poods only as yon hnv notion of purchasing. Remember also, samples only
give an idea of what the goods are,|bnt do not give the articla full justice.
2. Do not have any hesitancy in ordering the goods yon want, for wo gnaran
•ee every article to c- me up to sample, and if unsatisfactory, it can b# returned
to ns at uur expense, and we will refund the money.
3. Shonid any article turn out unsatisiactorv, which might occur through a
oversight or otherwise, do not prejudge us of having done so in ten iinbdv, bu
give us the benefit of the doubt, and before reluming it write us your com
j plaint, so that, if possible, we might- '••range matter* sutibfucloii'y, wilLout th
: trouble aud/xpense of returning,
y
4, Cdicoeg we cannot always matoh
in the pattern, as wa soil larg. qn uni
ties of goods an ! it is impossible to
keep ev-ry pattern for any length of
time. Such ami similar goods we guar
antee to fill, by giving the same quali
ty, and as near the pattern as possible.
5. Wo ask as a favor, that parties
ordering goods be very particular iu
writing their name and stepping point
in plain letters, to avoid mistakes; also
to make their order as definite os pis
s ble, especially on articles .of which
samples cannot be sent, we would ask
to "ive us a limit in the priee, to enable
ns to form a proper idea of what the ar
ticle is to bo.
G Whenever it is possible, wo pre
fer the mr-ney to accompany the order
tut we will send the goods 0. O. IX
• (cash on delivery) by Express, and if in
structed, we will instruct the agent to
open the package for examination be
fore paying for it.
7. Wc do* not sell on credit under
any consideration. If previously ar
ranged, we will take a cottou factoi’s
acceptance in payment.
8. Do not order apy goods unless
you have the money ready to pay fur
them.
0. We prepay the frei on all or
ders amounting to twenty dollars or
over. This is the very best we do, for
our profit so slight (as we retail’our
goods at wholesale prices) ilia! we can
not afford to do better. We a Imit
there are houses who pay freight ou
ten d-dlars worth of goods, bet eorn
lijon sense tenches plainly that their
profit must be larger than ours, or else
they could net afford to do it. and,
therefore, in such eases, the party
ordering the goods of such hnu*e pays
the freight after all —only indirectly.
We have endeavored to be as honest and candid in onr'statements as the lan
guage at. our command can dojit, and if this’fails to convince, we do not know
what cau.
W hold ourselves legally responsible tolcarrv out the above assertions an and
Consider this a binding contract, entcred’upen by us freely and voluntary • and
affirm it herewith by our signature. ” Very .Respectfully,
