Walter GRAY Issue: March 24, 1880 The many friends of Miss Mary E. LEE, daughter of Mr. J. Miles LEE, regret to hear of her serious sickness, but hope she will speedily recover. Maj. Geo. W.H. LEGGE is lying seriously ill at his home. His numerous friends in town and county deeply sympathize with him in his affliction. We miss him every day about his accustomed place. Let every business man go to the Court House Wednesday evening and attend the Telephone Boom. Mr. MOODY went to Greenville last week, and in prospecting a little around that city, received every assurance that an Exchange would be established there. Last Saturday Gaffney City was the scene of a lamentable difficulty between H.M. SARRATT (Terrel) and Henry H. LITTLEJOHN. These young men are first cousins. They were drinking too much and got into a quarrel about some rival matter when a fight was commenced and LITTLEJOHN stabbed SARRATT in the head with a pocket knife, the blade penetrating two to two and half inches. SARRATT was living late Monday Evening but his condition was very critical. LITTLEJOHN was arrested and put in jail. His attornies are endeavoring to get him out on a writ of habeas corpus. FESTIVAL NOTES: The Lover's Retreat was very popular. How that young man with a pretty lady on each side of him retreated from the Retreat we do not know. The eatables were all good. Spartanburg compares favorably with any place when it comes to making good and pretty cakes. This was a "fair" festival. There was no extortion. Change was always given back. The 10-cent slice of cake was worth the money. The oysters and ice cream were genuine. We heard no grumbling whatever. Miss Mattie HENNEMAN, a little girl, had saved up her change for sometime and invested it in a candy stand which was quite pretty and attractive. It was the headquarters of the children. We did not hear of a single man in attendance under the influence of liquor. Even the drinking men have a respect for women and children. Everything passed off pleasantly, none of the usual jealousies and envyings and sharp words cropping out during the occasion.
