Polite and Pr Court Proceedings. Judge Dantzler arrived on Wednesday afternoon and opened court on Thursday morning, though very much indisposed. Thecaseof Perry Seastrunk against the Leaphart Lumber Co., a damage suit fdr $5,000 for personal injuries alleged to have been received while the plaintiff was in the employ of the company. After hearing all the testimony in the case and arguments of counsel, the jury retired and returned after being out a short while, with a verdict in favor of tho defendant. The plaintiff was represented by Messrs. Graham & Sturkie; the defend- i ant by Messrs. Shand & Shand, of Columbia. At the conclusion of this case Judge Dantzler, realizing that his condition woufifl not permit him to carry on the hnainess of the court, ordered court adjourned sine die, and he left for his home in Orangeburg on Friday morning. Only four cases, out of about 75 on the civil docket, were disposed of at this term. This leaves the dockets in very bad shape and as it will be June before another term is held, it can readily be seen that the next judge will find his hands full. No equity cases were heard at all, and judge Dantzler promised to return as soon as he finished court at Edgefield. Death of a Little One. Francis Edna Huffman, the fivemonths-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Huffman, of Lower Fork, died at their home on Sunday afternoon and I was laid to rest in St. Andrew's churchyard on Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock. R. F. D. Examination.
