THE CHARLESTON SILVER LADY DAWN CORLEY CharlestonSilverLady@hotmail.com

Black glass jewel casket gave safe repose to valuables

T

his rectangular, thick-walled glass vessel was made circa 1860. It is made of rare black glass and rests in a doré bronze mounting. The lid can be opened and raised and has a long pin that allows the lid to attach to the body by threading through a series of openings in the bronze. This is a very secure way of fastening the top to the bottom. The weight of the glass would have stripped away a lesser attempt to hold tthe lid in place.

The inTerior is lined with turquoise silk with a subtle, quilted effect that allows precious items to be made secure when placed inside. This lining is held in place with an interior metal surround that securely holds the silk flush to the confines of the glass.

The lid and body of the piece are decorated with white enamel in the form of handpainted images of male and female children at play. This form of decorating glass originated with Mary Gregory in England and has come to be called “Mary Gregory

Glass.”

A piece such as this is the forerunner of the modern day jewelry box. Its purpose was similar. Precious objects were placed inside for safe keeping. The term “jewel casket” was not intended as a macabre reminder of death, but as a symbol of “rest” for your precious pieces; “safe slumber” was found when the lid was closed.

My own GreaT Grandmother Petrie called her jewelry box a jewel casket. She was a true Victorian, born in Charleston in 1871.

Her jewel casket passed to my mother and then on to another relative. I only have to close my eyes to remember it sitting on her dresser, hiding in plain sight, filled with all she held dear.

Contact Dawn with questions about an object of your own. There are many interesting stories associated with antiques from this area. Share yours with us! It could be published in the Chronicle. If you have items to be appraised, please contact her by email. © 2017 The Charleston Silver Lady

The Lake Murray Fishing Report Lake Murray water levels are at 357.16 (full pool is 360.00), and water temperatures have dropped into the lower to mid80s. Clarity is pretty good although the rain may reduce it.

Striped bass are doing what they usually do on Lake Murray in the summer, and Captain Brad Taylor (803-331-1354) reports that the fish are now 80-100 feet deep, with 80 feet being the magic depth most days.

They’re grouped up in the lower pool and being caught on down-lines, although there has also been some schooling activity in the same areas. Most of the schoolies are small.

The fishing has slowed a bit recently and anglers need to be more patient.

In catfish news, Captain William Attaway (803-924-0857) reports that with the catfish spawn almost completely finished, if not finished, you need to look a little deeper to catch fish and get further out in the creek channel.

Thirty feet is a good depth range to target during the day, while at night, 15-25 feet is a good range.

Fish will be found off long points and humps, and fishing the deeper side of chan-

nel buoys on the lake is a good bet.

Dip baits are hard to beat, although the herring bite has also been picking up.

While there are other species in Lake Murray, much of the fishing world's attention has been focused on its largemouth bass.

In the lead-up to the Forrest Wood Cup Captain Doug Lown of Newberry and tournament angler Andy Wicker of Pomaria both report that they expected the suspended bite to play a part.

This isn't usually a pattern that gets strong until the early fall until the lake turns over, but this year some really nice sacks have been caught over mid-depth and deep water on topwater/barely subsurface lures. F ish are keying on bait schools, and there is also some schooling activity.

Andy expected most of the weight to be caught in deep water, with some big ones caught up shallow first thing.

Most predictions are that the weights will be better than last time the FLW came to town, and so it was (see Page 12).

Reports of some 20-pound sacks being caught in recent weeks do nothing to dampen that optimism.

ou can buy almost anything on Amazon.

And what are the craziest things you get can get that you might actually want?

Mosquito Repellant

Is there ever a time in S.C. that mosquitoes aren’t a problem?

I swear I’ve been bitten in mid-January. But what if you didn’t have to spray yourself down every time you wanted to go out tod enjoy the evening?

Amazon has mosquito repellent bracelets. They are perfectly kid safe, waterproof and adjustable.

Just put it on and enjoy hours of mosquito free fun.

What’s important is that 61% of the reviews are 5 stars. Not bad for something that seems like an AsSeen-On-TV product.

on your smartphone too.

Slap on one of these stickers and you can set them up online using any web browser. If you should lose the item, you can log back on and the GPS will show you where your lost item is.

Mega crystal lab

Perfect your budding chemist. Grow different colored crystals and turn them into a night light with the display base.

These are from National Geographic and they offer a lot of different scientific fun in boxes.

Dippin’ Dots

When I was a kid, Dippin’ Dots ice cream was the coolest thing. They marketed it as ‘The ice cream of the future’ and it sure seemed like it.

Now you can pick them up in convenience stores.

My girls love the flavors. Head to Amazon and you can pick up 90 servings (perfect for parties) of three different flavors. You get 90 servings, 3 gallons, 90 cups, 90 plastic spoons, and reusable foam cooler.

Poo-Pourri

We all know that bathroom odors are embarrassing. Especially in an office.

The makers of PooPourri found a way to to stop odors before they begin. You spray the bowl before you sit down and the scientifically-tested mixture stops all odors from happening. The great thing is that there is no chemicals and doesn’t just mask odors.

Don’t be fooled by the small size either. A 4 ounce bottle has up to 200 uses.

Dynotag stickers

These stickers can help you locate lost items. The great thing? You can put it

Combat Flip-Flops

It isn’t what you think!

These awesome looking flip-flops are made by a ceteran owned company.

They are made in Bogota, Colombia.

This provides jobs and invests in an area torn by drugs.

The company also offers USA made bags, sarongs made in Afghanistan by local women and bracelets made in Laos from landmines left in the Vietnam war.

Each time a purchase is made it helps to put an Afghan girl into school for a day.

And the bracelets help to clear 3 square meters of unexploded ordnance.

Marshmallows

Doesn’t sound weird or unusual does it?

What if I told you that it was a bag of cereal marshmallows?

Just like if you went and bought cereal and picked out all the marshmallows to eat.

Now you can buy it at Amazon. And it’s only $9.99 for a 1lb bag.

Get all your sugar without all the work.

Total Eclipse 2017 Together in the darkness

“There is no science in this world like physics.

It’s the laws of physics that allow us to say exactly what time the sun is going to rise, what time the eclipse is going to begin, (and) what time the eclipse is going to end.”

— Neil deGrasse Tyson astrophysicist

Lawson estridge | Lexington County Blowfish Intern

The moon can be seen passing in front of the sun on Monday at different stages of the total solar eclipse on Monday.

The once-in-a-lifetime event reportedly brought more than one million visitors to the Palmetto State. The view of the totality was visible for more than two minutes in Lexington, one of the longest durations in the U.S.

RIGHT: Some visitors fully relaxed by laying down to watch the eclipse from beginning to end.

BELOW: From left, Ellory McFarland, 5, Shea Sellers, Russell McFarland, Cathy McFarland, Sara Cate McFarland, 7, and J.W. McFarland, 2, look up at the sky and take in the view of the solar eclipse during totality on Monday at Northside Christian Academy in Lexington.

Members of the Carolina’s Nature Photographers Association gathered at Glenforest School in West Columbia Tuesday to photograph the total eclipse.

Finding the sun in their viewfinders was not easy with long telephoto lenses. They will be ready in 2024 for the next total solar eclipse in the United States, said Don Wuori of the club.

That number is guaranteed to lose two members after next week. It’s a doubleheader of intracountry clashes between undefeated teams as Irmo visits Chapin and Lexington goes to “Fort Knox” to face BrooklandCayce.

While White Knoll is idle, Gilbert faces a rejuvenated River Bluff team that snapped a 10-game losing streak under new head coach Christopher Hardin.

Friday night #1 Dutch Fork host #2 Fort Dorchester in their third meeting in a year.

Dutch Fork won during the regular season (35-22) and playoffs (49-24).

How a Brit earned a top honor — with the help of Nazis

E

very so often, history provides a story that is every bit as improbable as it is inspiring.

This is one of them.

Permit me to share the truly remarkable tale of how a badly injured young soldier’s heroism defied the odds … and how his enemy helped him receive the recognition he deserved for it.

Not any old recognition, either, but the highest honor Great Britain can bestow: the Victoria Cross. It’s their version of the Congressional Medal of Honor.

To fully appreciate just how big this Big Deal is, consider this: since the VC (as our British cousins call it) was created exactly 150 years ago, it has only been awarded to 1,355 people.

In fact, it has only been presented to eleven recipients in the 70 years since World War II ended.

When military personnel and veterans display ribbons on their uniform, it is always positioned first.

The honor is so significant, King George V decreed in 1920 that if a VC Like the Congressional Medal of Honor, the greatrecipient later committed a est honor bestowed upon crime, regardless how horthose who serve Great rific, the award could not be rescinded, saying, “Even were a VC to be sentenced ing; the disabled tank was to be hanged for murder, he a sitting duck. should be allowed to wear So Charlton was ordered his VC on the scaffold.” to climb out of the turret, Yeah, it’s that big. remove the tank’s Browning With the Automatic Rifle back story esand support the tablished, let infantry. us now turn But he did a lot our attention more than that. to Edward The Germans Colquhorn badly outnumCharlton. bered the Brits, Born in who were in serinorthern Engous danger of beland in 1920, ing surrounded his early life and captured. was so unreNobody knows markable, litwhat happened tle is known inside Edward about it.

Talk about bad tim- them Charlton’s fate.

A hospital for sinners “He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others.”

— 2 Corinthians 1:4

I

Britain is the Victoria Cross. One man earned his with the help of his enemies: The Nazis.

He died later that day, age 24, just 16 days shy of Germany’s surrender.

Soon afterward, British officers were reading documents handed over by the German Army.

There, in writing, was the Nazi’s report on the Battle of Wistedt, telling of Charlton’s heroics in precise detail. German POW’s who witnessed the attack were then interviewed.

They corroborated the report, with several even insisting the brave enemy soldier deserved a medal.

Thanks to the Germans’ documentation, King George VI eventually presented the Victoria Cross to Charlton’s family.

It was the very last VC awarded in the European Theater in World War II. How do you explain what drives a man to voluntarily go so far above and beyond the call of duty?

What makes him keep fighting while he is tortured by pain, knowing he will not survive this, his final battle?

Maybe a spirit whispers in his ear, the same spirit that answers the question Macaulay poses in Horatius at the Bridge: Then out spoke brave Horatius the Captain of the gate, “To every man upon this earth Death cometh sooner or late.

And how can man die better than facing fearful odds, for the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his gods?”

Whatever the reason, a simple truth is chiseled into the cold stone marker that silently stands above Plot 7, Row F in the British Military Cemetery near Niedersachsen, Germany: “Greater love hath no man than that he lay down his life for others.”

f you have struggled with traumatic experiences, you know how difficult relationships can be.

Without help, many will never recover from addiction, past abuses or other unresolved issues.

First Baptist Church of Lexington on Barr Road offers help for many in the Lexington area with their Celebrate Recovery program.

Counseling and Missions Pastor Paul Bishop said that when he joined the staff 14 years ago, Senior Pastor Ralph Schneck told him that his vision for First Baptist was to be “a hospital for sinners, not a museum for saints.”

They launched Celebrate Recovery 12 years ago. It is so much more than kicking substance abuse.

Celebrate started 26 years ago at Rick Warren’s Saddleback Church as a Christ centered 12 step substance abuse program.

First Baptist offers Christ-centered counseling and support groups for addictions, anxiety, depression, anger and many other issues.

Meetings are held on Tuesday nights for 90-100 adults who come for dinner and the meetings.

The first hour is a large group meeting and then they break into small groups based on each one’s needs and interests. There are many success stories about people who attended the programs.

One heroin addict is now a small group leader. A drug and alcohol addict became an addiction counselor.

Without doubt, lives are being changed by these ministries at FBC Lexington.

If you think you or someone close to you needd help, contact the church at 803-9570686 Do you have a ministry you want to talk about? Call me at the Chronicle, 359-7633 or email me at chuck1946@ hotmail.com
