Rightly Spoken Words.
Mr. Wilmot Ouzts, Btta of the
lamented David T, Ouzts, of
Johnston, was iu Edgefield during
the closing days of "court looking
after some legal business connec
ed with his father's estate, and
one of the attorneys introduced
the bright and very promising
young man to Judge Prince. After
greeting Wilmot very cordially
and expressing his delight at
meeting him, the Judge said: "I
was a student at Wofford college
with your father, and if you make
the man that he was, you will be
all right." This, ?D a few words,
was a very high encomium upon
Edgefield's departed citizen, who
left "foot-prints upon the sands
of time" that will never be effaced.
Appropriate Endorsement of Judge
George E. Prince.
During an informal session of
oourt, on the closing day the attor
neys who were present pass
ed resolutions expressing their
appreciation of the very able and
impartial manner in #whick His
Hunor,- Judge Prince, had dis
charged the dutieB of bis high
