J south of Kershaw are becoming . _ i very much alai uietl ovor tho recent \l ?-1 burnings in that section. There n | have boon three alleged incendiary 0 fires within a radius of throe Tm - guiles within tho last three weeks'. 1 About three weeks ago, Mr. - Joseph Fletcher's barn was burned with its contents which con0 siskui of several bales of cotton 1 which was all ho made last year 7 and which ho was holding for - belter prices his fodder, cotton seed and a n now buggy. \ negro 'orl 1 woman confessed to tho crime ^ I and says sho had no motivo f whatsoever for her dovilish act. I * She is now in jt.il in Camden W i awaiting trial. On last Tuesday night Mr. ; Lewis Truosael had his corn crib A with about 150 bushels of corn % II burned. This crib was at least \ ) 150 yards from any dwelliug and I thereforo must have been sot on ^ I fire intentionally. No clue was I left as to tho criminal. jn ( Again on tho fo'lowing night i Mr lUirrcll Truesdol had his barn pun 1 burned with its contents. A. negro wo boy by tho name of Isaac Pea was ttn , . suspected of the crimo as ho and antj Mr. Truesdol had had a difficulty sonio time beforo. Upon being I questioned as to his whereabouts at i the time tho fTro started, ho claim f ed that ho was not at home, which ? fact his wife substantiated, but I] spent tho uight at a neighbor's $3.1 house.The man whom be olainis ho |J| spent tho night with denied having seen Pea for a week. Upon such diversity of statements the negro Pea was committed to jail until a \n preliminary hearing can bo had. J Ah a result of such frequent fires pooplo are natually becoming ? greatly alarmed over the situation. It scorns that the farmeis in this sociion are determined to hold their cotton for bettor pricos. As i an evidence of this fact many poo- "V pie are removing their cotton from the warehouses hero, currying it back home. Some are hauling it a distance of 15 miles. K. S, C.
