■ Since my last letter I have
travelled further in the country.
I find the cotton on red lands
very good, on grey and sandy
lands not| so good. The rain set
In here in June and scalded the
cotton and from my observations
both at home, on the road and
bere the cotton crops are badly
over estimated. Corn is fine
where it is properly worked. 1
am now in the Historic part of
^Lancaster county. I am near
the Monument called the Buford
.Monument which marks the spot
where eighty-four brave Virgin¬
ians, daring the Revolutionary
Awar^ere ambushed and murder¬
ed by the bloody Tarleton. The
Virginians were commanded by
Co 1 . Buford of the Continental
army. This spot is ten miles
east of Lancaster C. H. On the
old Reeky River Road.
.About four miles west of this
sspot is the old traditional place
.known as the Billy Grimes place.
An old Irishman settled this place
•when ths whole country was in
*,he woods. It is on the banks of
the beautiful Gills creek. This
settlement was made over one
hundred and twenty-five years
ago and the public road ran close
to the door and was used during
the old war by troops of both
aidts. The old original house is
standing just the same and my
informant thinks the same old
roof is yet on. It has always
t>een owned by the Grimes des¬
cendants and three of the same
family are living there now and
the youngest over sixty-five
years old. Tradition says Gen¬
eral George Washington, in pass¬
ing front Raleigh, N. C. towards
Charleston, S C., stopped in
front of the door, under two large
old walnut trees and ate a supper
of milk and mush. The old trees
are sheltering me now and they
look to be old enough for Adam
and Eve to have taken supper
i nder.
Abaut seventeen miles North¬
west of these old trees is the spot
where old General (Hickory)
Andrew Jackson first saw the
lightin the noted Waxhaw coun¬
try near the Waxhaw church
(presbyterians) and Jackson’s
father was buried in this old
church yard. Tradition also says
that when General Jackson’s
father’s body was being carried
to the enurch yard to b'buried
the parties who had it in charge
passed an old time groggery and
all took on a little too much 0. B.
Joyful and was carrying him in
an old pair of trucks (wagons not
known then) and on the way lost
the body of the old gentleman
and when they arrived they had
to return and find the body and
then bring it. Now tradition
dees not say whether this was
stump liquor or not.
This country is also the birth
place of the noted Dr. J". Mariot
Sims, who once had the honor of
treating the Queen of England.
As this is getting rather lengthy
I will finish in my next. I am
getting home sick and wish to
see our native wire grass and
pines.
With kind wishes to all,

physicians and at a great expense, only
to grow worse until she was unable to

Mr. and Mrs. Wilkes lost their
baby last week. It was two years
old.
Mr. Gus Crosby, last week while
pulling fodder, sat down on a

felt something working at
pocket. When he turned around
to see what it was, to his surprise,
he saw a very large coach whip.
The snake would stick his head
in the pocket and then take it out.
Mr. Crosby said he jumped
ten feet.
