The Sentinel is not responsible
for the views of its corres
pondents.
About two weeks ago we
sent out statements to all of our
subscribers wh > are as much as
one- year behind. Some have
renewed their subscriptions (for
which we wish to thank them).
while some others haye appar
ently paid rio attention to the
notices. We hope every one
will renew before next week, as
we will be compelled to cut off
all who do not. We do not
send The Sentinel to any one
who does not authorize us to,
and when their subscription ex
pires we expect pay for it.
We are trying to improve The
Sentinel all the time, but, if it
does not suit you and you wish
it discontinued, we will not
fall out with you about that.
All that we ask is that you pay
up your subscription; and we
will be glad to have all renew.
If you think there is a mis
take in your statement let us
know and we will take pleasure
in straightening it out.
We will not cut off any body
who has not received a notice.

By Mrs. C.
When the war tocsin sound
ed in 1861, there was a strong
healthy lad just 21 years old,
who lived at Piercetown, in
Anderson county, who gladly
left his home and joined thej
army. He entered Evans' bri
Bade under General LMe. His
%:t move was to organize a
regiient at camp Hampton,
four miles below Columbia.
They immediately moved on to*
James Island. Stopping there
for a brief period, longing for
the taste of battle. They wvent
onl to Richmond where that
taste was soon gratified. The
first battle that he was in, was
at Frazer's farm near Rich
mond. He was a little nervous
in this battle, but soon grew ac
customed to fighting. These,
were the days when our men
were nearly always victorious.
After this he was in battles up
on battles. One of the hardest
was that of Manassas, there
was an awful conflict, lasting
nearly all of one hot day. The
yankees were driven back into
Washington, and there was re
jocing in the south. The Fed
eral army reached Malvern Hill,
twelve miles below Richmond
on the 1st day of July. Their
position was protected by Fed
eral gunboats on the river.
Early on the morning of July,
1st. the whole Confederate army
rshed forward to the assault.
IAll day long the furious strug
gle continued, but not decisive.
For seven long, hot days the
battle wvent on, andl at last the
victory was claimed by the
Yankees. No such dreadful
scene had been enacted on the
American continent. The bat
tle ended the great campaign of
'62. The Federals had lost num
bers of their men, and the Con
ederates still held Richmond.
Our hero had been with
ackson, who marched through
?ennsylvania then on back to
Virginia. He was sent to
guard the trenthes near Peters
urg. These trenches were dug
on a hillside and were about
ten feet deeu. With others he
staid on guard eight months
and was at one of the port holes
when the awful "blow-up" hap
pened. He was crushed by the
earth and his body badly bruis
ed. For a long month dead
bodies of men were dug out of
the trenches. The Yankees
Ead 3 regiments of dIrunken
negros in their front when they

Capt. Ben Martin came to
l)orr's rescuie and carried him
to a hospijtal at Goldsboro where

x //A
Guard Against Cotton Anthrac
nose -
-North Carolina reader says:
"low long will the disease of
cotson, called anthracnose, or
hol! rot, remain in the soil?
Can I safely plant land adjoin
ing that on which the cotton
was diseased last year, or will it
be necessary to leave a strip of
land between where the diseased
cotton grew last year and
where I plant this year'
Another reader asks if he can
treat cotton seed with anything
to prevent the recurrence of the
disease this year.
Authracnose does not appear
to be a disease of the soil but is
carried in the seed, and land
where the cotton was diseased
last year may be again planted
to cotton this year without
danger of the disease, if seed
free from the disease are used.
No method of treating infect
ed seed has yet been found ef
fected. The only safety lies in
planting seed from cotton that
was free from the disease last
year. Some varieties appear
more resistant to the disease
than others, or at least, some
,varieties seem to suffer more
than others.
If a mavn has a variety which
is diseased, that he wishes to
keep because of its other good
qualities, he can probably ob
tain a resistant strain, or at
least one fairly free from the
disease, by carefully selecting
seed for planting for several
years from plants that show
absolutely no trace of the dis
ease.-Tait Butler in Progres

After six weeks in the hospit
al, Mr. Dorr went back to join
his old regiment at Petersburg
After this he was sent to Sulli
vans Island to guard Fort
Sumter, where he staid until
the last cannon fell fro'm the
parapet. Then he wvent on t c
Jacksonville where he formed
a line of battle and went right
after the Yankees, making be
lieve they were a great army,
and captured them and sent
them to prison. Then they
went back to Charleston. Dur
ing those four years he was in
nine states, from Missipsippi to
Pennsylvania. Young and full
of life he did not fear the Yran
kees or ever think they would
defeat our brave soldiers. Once
he was sent to Big Black river in
Miss., where they found the
enemy so strong they knew
they would be captured, so
turning, they retraced their
steps, marching forty miles in
one day. This was the hardest
day's marching they had ever
done. Think of walking forty
miles in August and never stop
ging, no dinner and rarely a
drink of water. Some of the
men drank out of horse tracks
when they passed low places in
the road, but were not allowed
time to pause. When night
came on they were so worn out
and tired they did not mind the
rain for sleeping, but quietly
ulled their caps over their faces
and slept a dreamless sleep.
There were some who took a
chunk of wood for a pillow.
This was one of the h-irdest
marches our hero had known.
They marched on by Mobile to
Charleston, fighting where
ever they met the enemy. At
last they went back to Virginia.
Our hero was a young man
with a young man's dreams
and hopes, and it was only
three months before the surren
ler that he gaye up. lie was
with Lee at the surrender and
had not been home once during
the four years. His form is
aow growing very feeble and
:he frosts of seventy winters
are whitening his head. His

Don't negleet indigestien, for it
rmay lead to all sorts of ills and comn
plications. An eminent physician
once said that ninety-five per cent of
all ills have their origin in a die
ordered stomaoh.
Our experience with Rexall Dy.
pepsia Tablets leads us to believe
them to be one of the most dependable
remedier known for indigestion and
chronic dyspepsia. Their ingredi
ents are soothing to the inftamed
membranes of the stomach. Rieh
in Pepsi and Bismuth, two of the
greatest digestive aids known to
medicine, the relief they afford is
very prompt. Used persistently and
regularly for a short time, they tend
to relieve pains caused by stomach
disorders.
Rexall Dspepsia Tablets help
insure healthy appetite, aid diges
tion, and promote nutrition. As
evidence of our faith in them, we ask
you to try them at our risk. If they

wife, tender and affectionate
mother, greatly interested in
e the welfare of her loved ones,
cheering them when in troub!e
'e ministering unto them when
sick. Sister Jones was devoted
to her Saviour. She was one
~of the shining lights in Griffin
church, ready to do what she
could for the promotion of her
master's cause. She was a
good neighbor, ready and will
ing to help the needy and to
visit and minister to the sick.
She has built for herself a
b3monument more durable than
eperishable material and more
precious than polished marble.
She was taken sick about five
months before her death. She
bore her sickness with christian
courage and fortitude. She
said she was prepared to die
and was going to her heavenly
home where she would be freed
from suffering. Her funeral
services were conducted by the
writer, and the large congraga
tion that attended shows how
sh was esteemed and respected
by all who knew her. To say
she had no faults would be say
ing she was not human, but
her virtures so overshadowed
her errors that they were lost
sight of in reviewing and ad
miring her many noble christ
ian graces. Her body sleeps in
tegrave at Griffin church to
await the resurrection of the
jut, and her spirit has gone to
be with her Saviour in paradise,
which is heaven to her soul.
Conscious of our weakness
and inability to do justice to the
subject of this sketch in giving
a brief biography of her life,
yet we feel it due her. So
please overlook my errors and
magnify her virtures. In con
clusion we dedicate to her mem
ory the following lines.
"Servant of God well done,
Rest from thy loved employ;
The battle fought, the victory
won,
Enter thy Master's ioy".
