want of room forced us to be content with carrying a very limited
stock compared with what we are now prepared to offer. Improve
ments and extensions just completed, make our present premises—two
floors, each 165 feet iong by 25 feet wide—the handsomest, most
commodious, best lighted and best suited in every way for the dis
play of goods, in Augusta ; and we challenge the South Atlantic States
to match the stock for variety, completeness of assortment and care
fulness of selection. More time and attention are devoted to its pur
chase, than are spent on any similar stock in the South, and the result
will be apparent to all who inspect it carefully. On the shelves, and
in reserve, can be found at all times full lines of every class of Dry
Goods, Notions, etc., from low priced SUBSTANTIAL GOODS TO
THE FINEST FABRICS s nd choicest designs produced in this coun
try or imported from abroad ; and without quoting figures in detail,
WE GIVE A POSITIVE, UNQUALIFIED GUARANTEE ON PRICES AGAINST
every house and every market in the united states. Wo mean
to "ivc satisfaction to everybody who docs business with us; and
whenever any article from our house does not come up to representa
tion, the purchaser will oblige us by notifying us promptly, and we
will make the matter satisfactory in every instance.
Samples sent by mail on application. In ordering samples, please
specify as exactly as possible the goods desired, and in ordering
goods', state whether something else may be substituted or not, inciiee
the particular article ordered is sold out.

Presentments.
We having been chosen as the
Grand Jury for the September ad
journed term, 1887, make the follow
ing presentments:
We have through our committees
examined the public buildings, books
of the various offices, pauper list,roads
and bridges.
We find the jail in a safe condition,
but the surroundings are in a very
filthy condition, caused by the slop
from the inside being thrown out near
the building. Wo recommend that
the slop from the building bo carried
far enough from the jail so as not to
affect the health of the prisoners. It
has been reported to the committee
that the slop from the jail has been
allowed to remain in the jail for sever
al days at a time before being remov
ed. We recommend that said filth
bo removed daily. We find the court
house, in good condition, except the
plastering in the court room and on
each side of the ball as you leave Ilia
court room, wo recommend that it be
attended to at once.
Wo have examined the books of
the Ordinary, Clerk and Treasurer. -
We find them neatly and correctly
kept. We also find the books of
Sheriff properly kept and in a neat
ma ner.
Upon examination of the Treasurer’s
books we find the following disburse
ments since March term of the court,
1887:
Amount on hand $3,422 73
Paid out 2,167 81
Balance on hand at this term. 1,254 92 1
With vouchers to correspond. We i
recommend that the Treasurer pay !
Brad Ivy, jailor, turn key fees to date
sls 60.
We find the books of the Receiver !
; and Collector of Tuxes kept in good j
order, the assessments uniform. We
rcccommend that the Collector be !
more careful in tilling out the blanks '
on the collector’s execution docket. !
We find the roads in No. 5, between
Lamkin’s mill and the school above !
5 mile post in bad condition. 'Hie
roads in No. 2 from the Walton place
to Euchee creek not in good condi
tion. The same road beginning at Eu
chee to top of the hill at pine woods
branch we find some parts in bad
condition, other parts almost impass-
VOL VI NO 4
■ able. The roads from Harris mill to
Lick branch in bad condition. We
rcccommend that the railroad com
panies have the crossing on all our
roads put in good condition. We
recommend road lending from the
Lincolnton road to Price's mill be re
opened on condition that Mr. Price
puts the road in good condition be
fore the county receives it, us he, Mr.
Price, hits agreed to do.
We find the bridge on Kiokee
creek, below Dr. Bailey’s mill,"in an
unsafe condition. We recommend
that the proper authorities take im
mediate action having the same put
in good condition. We recommend
I that a bridge be built on Kiokee
creek at the ford below Penne’s mill.
Wo recommend that a bridge be built
across big Kiokee, below R. T. Du-
Bose place, as soon as the work call
be done, as the old bridg, is in a
dangerous condition. The Ordinaiy
informs us the contractor's time of
this bridge expires the 25th day of
(his month. We recommend the
Road Commissioners of Noh. 1 and 2
bo presented for neglect. of duty.
We find the books of the Justice of
the Peace in the main correctly kept,
except the books of Z. Kendrick, the
cost should be itemized and dated
Wo also recommend that (J. L. W»st
be reappointed as Justice in the same
district.
Upon a close nnd careful examina
tion of the pauper list of the county
we find it growing to such an extent
compared to the amount assessed for
their support that each one’s pro rata
share is not sufficient, therefore wo
recommend that the proper authori
ties strike from the pauper list the
following names. Mrs. Surah Martin,
Mrs Mahally Sanders, Mary Martin,
Wiley Armstrong, Hnriet Anderson,
Ann West, ( lon Porter, Cassie E Ma
lone, Mrs Robinson, George Pearre,
Sophia I’earre, l’i"ky Burt, Ore
Cumming, Nimrod Wimbusb, John
Brisco, Susan Tutt, John L Farmer,
Win Cann, Rena Cham, Caroline
Lamkin, Margaret Darsey, Sam Gar
nett, (1 P Eubanks, Nancy Jones.
We recommend that the Solicitor
be paid his insolvent cost.
Wo have elected T. B. Norvell nnd
John Q. Spires as members of the
Board- of Education to servo until
May, 1888, ami Robert Neal, Thomas
H. Paschal and A. M. Crawford to
serve until 1890.
We recommend that these present
ments bo publisluul in the Columbia
Sentinel.
We recommend that the county
Treasurer pay N. C. Akridge $6 80.
Wo recommend that the Sheriff,
bailiffs and jurors bo paid the same
as they have been paid heretofore.
We sincerely thank his Honor
Judge Roney and Solicitor for courte
sie- shown this body.

The Dickson Will.
The Dickson will case is still in
i court, and in Hancock Supreme
| Court last week Colonel C. W.
Du Bose, one of the attorneys for the
propounders in the Dickson will case,
moved to make the judgment of the
Supieme Court, recently rendered,
i the judgment of the court below. To
this the counsel for caveators object
ed, upon various grounds, already
published. To these objectors counsel
for propounpers demurred. This de
murrer Hon. Samuel Lumpkin, the
presiding Judge, granted. To his
decision caveators will except and
take the case again to the Supreme
Court decided in favor of the Au
gusts colored woman, Amanda Eu
banks, or Dickson, and it is thought
that the will will stick.—Evening
