The following correspondence of
greatjnterest to all:
St. Louis, March 3,1886.
SfeeHiK, Barrett * Co., Augiwta, Ga.
Dear Sira- I feel it my dnty to the public
generally to pubhali i»y experience with your
most valuable preparation, H. H. V. I wan
suffering a great deal with biliousness and
dyspepsia and felt terribly. I was going to be
married in a few days, and was at a loss what
to do, as I was generally depressed. I fortuna
tely met Mr Neat Heggie on the streets of St.
Louis, when he gave me a bottle ot H. 11- I .
It acted like a charm, and in three days I was
■perfectly relieved. So pleased was I with the
effects f bought a dozen bottles, and for the
sum us 55 spent I received tell fold returns.
Yours truly,
Thomas G. Bsovkf..
The above is forcibly illustrated by
the following private letter to Mr.
Sr. Louis, March 3, 1886.
Dear Newt—How I can ever thank yon
sufficiently for your recommendation of H. H.
p I do not know, but rest assured I feel under
many obligations. After my wife and I return
ed from our bridal tour nothing would do Sally
but to have her mother live with us. She
came, and from the first began quarreling
with the cook, the butter, house girl and all,
and in fact raising a row about everything.
Nothing could please her. The tea was too
strong or too weak. When we had pie she want
ed pudding. At last patience ceased to be a
virtue, and, being strongly under the impress
ing she was crazy, I sent for Dr. J.— —. He
after a careful diagnosis ofher case, said she
•was suffering from biliousness and torpid liver.
1 then saw at last peace and happiness in view.
I induced her to take H. 11. P. Even the first
dose made a marvelous change, and after
having used two hotties, “mirabli dictu,” she
has become the nicest old lady in the land. If
1 had not fortunately met you on the street I
fear that ere this 1 would have been a lunatic.
My advice to you is, if you ever get married,
and to all other voting couples, is to lay in
a few bottles of 11. H. P. With kind regards, I
am vour friend, Tom.
B.— The neighbors are surprised at the
great change in my mother-in-law. Tell the
proprietors of H. H.’P. that when I tell them
the cause they will have to enlarge their busi
ness. Send inc one dozen by express.

Harkin vs. tirovotowa-
In the second game between the
above named towns the foimer met a
crushing defeat at the hands and on
the grounds of the latter. Both dubs
played well, more especially do we
speak in commendation of the battery
work. It was next to impossible to
play to any advantage in the field, be
cause of the bad condition of the
grounds. Later it will bo put in bet
ter fix. However, there were some
brilliant plays made, better than could
be reasonably expected when we take
into consideration the fact that the
diamond and field are composed of a
freshly cleared new ground ami a re
c< ntly ditched frog pond. A little
work and small outlay of money will
make it first-class. Another good fea
ture, it is so convenient, being located
in the center of the business portion
of the town. Bundling hith is some
times the turning point in the game,
but not ho in the case of the Bunch
hit in center field It was the most
laughable play nuule. Collins on Ist
and Langston oil 3rd played hand
somely. The same is true of Norvell
and Spires. Grovetown did her
whole duty and deserves praise upon
the elegant manner in which shu en
tertained the visiting dub Quite a
number of the. fair oil's turned out to
witness the game and cheer the boys
of our sister city on to victory. Wo
acknowledge that we were beaten fair
ly and squarely and hope soon to have
an opportunity to administer to them
a second crushing snow under.

The Issue.
Editors Sentinel:
In your issue of the (ith instant I
notice a suggestion from George M.
Lazenby to the voters of Columbia
county. He states that the stock law
may be an issue in our next election
for representative, and after careful
thought lias studied a satisfactory
remedy, to have each voter write on
the back of his ballot, for or against
repeal, the representative to be con
troled accordingly.
I will also make a suggestion to the
candidates: In order to obviate the
trouble to the voters, why not the
candidates come out, and let the peo
ple know the line of policy they ad
vocate on all questions they deem vi
tal ones ? As lor myself, I prefer to
have an expression of their views, in
order that 1 may determine whether
or not they are in accordance with
my own. On general principles I
prefer to support a man who expresses
my own views than one that does not.
If he favors a repeal of a law of any
character I think it possible he could
argue with more force; if against re
peal I doubt whether he could use
that zeal as he might otherwise. I
don’t believe in “holding the hare and
running with the hounds.” I exjiect
to cust rny ballot for the candidate
that does not straddle the fence, but
one who has independence enough to
corne out it. the face of success or de
feat. Surely this ought to be satis
factory to them. Voter.

There will be [(reaching at Blythe,
(Mt. Zion Church) on the fifth Sun
’ day by Rev. James Stapleton.
We learn that Mr. V. J. Murrow
i has purchased the lot of land situated
on the south side of the railroad and
depot nt Blythe, belonging to the'
Byne estate, and is prepared to sell
I lots ami give good titles to the same.
■No buildings have yet been erected
at that place, though we trust to see'
I the day when it will be the centre’
of attraction.
There is room for improvement inf
this community and we will be pleas

will exist in the hearts of our sur
rounding companions, instead of
prejmiice, and when nothing but
peace and harmony shall reign every

Our Sunday school at this ] lace con
tinues to thrive with something over a

A Card.
To My Friends and Publir.
After serious and deliberate reflec
tion, I have decided to be no longer
a candidate. 1 tried public life a
short while in my younger days, was
satisfied then, that it did not suit one
of my tern i erament. From thnt time
to the present I huvo been content to
live a private citizen. The solicit!«
tion to become a cumiidate, coming
in the maner it did, caused me to act
against my judgment, but consented
reluctantly and have not been satisfied
since. Knowing full well that it was
my paramount duty to remain with
and provide for my motherless
daughters, who need all the fatherly
care that lam capable of bestowing.
Knowing my duty I dare not do it.
To those of my friends who sought to
honor mo, you have my sincere heart
fe t thanks.
In the matter of the suggestion
published in the Sentinel of the 6th
inst., over my signature, upon u care
ful reading, I grant, admits of more
than one construction, but I assure
the public, that I hud but one motive
in view and that was to conciliate the
manifest feeling of the public mind
and to avert an issue. If in this I
have done injustice to any one, I
stand ready, as far as in my power to
make amend.
Very respectfully,
Geo. M. Lazemby.

SystcMiiatlc Suicide.
Evening News: The suicide of Mr.
Traugut Ihle last, afternoon was one
of the most methodical and systemat
ic on record. He left his house in
Harrisburg, near the river, tied bis
body to a limb of a tree with a long
rope, hung his hat on his cane, which
he stuck in the ground, and then
deliteratcly jumped into the river and
drowned himself.
The suicide was unobserved, bnt
when some children late in the after
noon found the hat and stick and
observed the rope, and when after
calling for aid the dead man was
dragged out of the river, the facts
were patent at a glance. The un
fortunate man had been a great
sufferer from a cancer in his mouth,
and in despondency he deliberately
suicided. The Coroner’s inquest was
in accord with these facts.
Mr. Ihle has been a good citizen
and has been very comfortable in
business affairs. He owned his home
and has raised a family, and much
sympathy is felt for them. He was
buried this afternoon from his resi
dence in Harrisburg,
