"There is one thing that can be
truthfully said about Edgefield's
whole team, they fight from whistle

their endeavor to keep the score
from piling up against them. All they
lack is training and experience to
make theirs a dangerous eleven.
"Wright was the individual star
for Edgefield, with Day as his satel
ite. Day was weak on punts but play
ed a splendid defensive game."
Although our boys may fail to
make the highest score they always
make a fine impression by their fair

Death of Mrs. Lizzie Prince.
The announcemnt of the death of
Mrs. Lizzie Prince which occurred
early Monday morning at the hospital
in Augusta caused general sorrow
among her friends in Edgefield. She
was operated on for appendicitis
about a month ago and had almost re
covered from the operation when she
became a victim of chills and fever
and later developed pneumonia which
caused her death. The attending phy
sicians, owing to certain complica
tions, held out no hope to her loved
ones for several days before the end
came.
Before her marriage Mrs. Prince
was Miss Lizzie McDaniel, a descend
ant of a very old family of the west
side. She was a devout Christian wo
man, a member of Red Hill church,
where she was -buried Tuesday morn
ing, the funeral being conducted by
Rev. A. T. Allen.
Mrs. Prince is survived by three
sons, Talton,, Earl and Abbie Prince,
and one daughter, Mrs. J. H. West.
Her two oldest sons served their
country valiantly during the World
war and the writer who was a mem
ber of the local board recalls the
splendid spirit manifested by Mrs.
Prince when her two sons went to the
front. No mother in Edgefield coun
ty was more patriotic than Mrs. Liz
zie Prince.

meeting of the Philharmonic Music
club was held with Mrs. Hugh Mitch

"Hug-me-tight" (H. M. T.) buggy all hollow.

Huggins say take the difference and buy groceries.
