thusiastic ovor tho outlook for get
ting together a company that would
do Andenvnn and tho eta to credit.
Mr. Trowbridge was at ouo time 2nd
Lieut, of Company lt, and in quito
cognizant with military affairs. Al
so, he has been offered a tlrot lieu
tenancy with the Greer, S. C., com
pany or militia, of tho 1st. 8. C.
