Young Man In Trouble.
Charged with forging his father's
name to two checks, a young man
named Fairey, said to be ? son of a
prominent business man of Denmark,
S. C, was placed under arrest in the
office of the Wanteska Trust and
Banking Company, at Henderson
ville, N. C, while preparing to offer
a third check for payment. Pend
ing advices from his father, who is
expected to straighten out bis finan
cial difficulties', the younr. man is in
the custody of the police, but has
not been placed in jail. Fairey, it
seems, had already secured $115 up
on checks bearing the forged signa
ture of his father. The warrant was
sworn out by CaBhier J. Mack
Rhodes, of the First National Bank.
Case Settled at Last.
Messrs Frank Read, S. L. Craw
ford and W. F. Lanier, '"ho were on
the bond of ex-Treasurer J. 0. Ed
wards, of Berkeley county, were at
Moncks Corner Wednesday for the
purpose of settling the bond. The
amount paid was $6,340. It will be
recalled that J. O. Edwards was
found short in his accounts $5,500.
After trial in the Courts, a judg
ment was rendered against his bonds
men. This is the last chapter of the
Berktley County shortage. As soon
as the Courts decided against them,
the above named gentlemen came
forward and made settlement in full.
All Muk*. Pay Up.
The St. Matthews correspondent
of The State says Supervisor Zieg
ler is busy now rounding up the
commutation tax delinquents. There
are about five hundred delinquents
out of a total of about 4,500 tax
payers. In this county there is a
penalty of $50 attaching to persons
who do not pay this fax, but those
who pay the tax and such costs as
have accrued will probably be ex
empted from the penalty this year.
Revival Services.
Please allow me space in your
paper to say that I will begin a series
of revival services at the Double
Branch Church on the third Sunday
afternoon in this month at four
o'clock. I will be assisted by my
brother, Rev. W .R. Smith. The
public is cordially invited to all the
services. J. R. Smith, Pastor.
(selection before the crowd einbark
' ed for Blackville.
I At Blackville a stop war. made
I of about twenty minutes. The music
and advertising matter was very
properly given out. From Black-ville
the autos left for the trip to Orange
burg?it being so late that the trip
to Cope and Cordova had to be given
out. After more or less fortunate
runs the cars arrived in this city
at times varying from S to 10
o'clock
This ended tht first automobile
booster trip. There is no need to
say that it has done good. Anybody
will recognize the fact that fifteen
autos moving through the country
cannot but attract attention that lead
ing on to talk, and talk is what Or
angeburg needs. ?
DID HE MURDER HIM
MAN CHARGED WITH MURDER
ING YOUNG SHIRER.
Is Committed to Jail in Augusta and
No One Allowed to See or Talk' to
Him in His Cell.
The mysterious death of R. C.
Shirer whose body was found float
ing in the Savannah river at Augus
ta on the morning of August 2, took
another turn Wednesday afternoon,
when a warrant was served on J. H.
Cunningham in Augusta, charging
him with Shirer's murder. Cunning
ham was committed to jail, and no
one was allowed to see him.
The Augusta Chronicle says the
nature of the evidence on which the
warrant is based in not known,
though it Is held to be sufficient to
have issued a warrant carrying the
charge specified. As a maitter of fact
almost as much mystery surrounds
the arest and detention of Cunning
ham as surrounded the death of Shi
rer, and every possible effort was
made Wednesday night 'to suppress
all information in connection with
the case.
However, it is known that two pri
vate local detectives, Thomas L.
Howard and l\fike Kelly, have been
working on the Shirer case, and that
during .the day Wednesday a war
rant was issued in Magistrate Nurn
berger's court at the instigation of
one of the detectives or some other
parties, based on evidence sufficient
In the mind of the court to charge
murder. The warrant was served by
Constable Walton, and Cunningham
committed to jail during the after
noon, but, after his confinement, ef
forts to see, or get in communica
tion with the prisoner were fruitless.
Cunningham and Shirer were both
boarders at 310 Washington street,
C. V. Kilsel being Shirer's room
mate and Cunningham rooming di
rectly across the hall. The three
men were quite intimate. It will be
recalled that they testified at the in
quest held on the third that Shirer
came to his room about 12:30
o'clock Monday night, left his watch,
a ring and a gold pin in his room,
saying he was going to the tenderloin
district. Subsequent Investigations
by the police department developed
the fact that Shirer did not go to the
tenderloin.
For several days that was the last
trace of Shirer until his body was
found floating in the river, by the
Southern railway bridge, Wednesday
moning. Investigation of the body
at the time of the inquest developed
the fact that Shirer was dead before
he sank under the water, and the
statement has been made that there
was no water in the lungs. Based
on this, the coroner's Jury returned
a verdict that he came to his death
from a broken neck," cause un
known to jury."
Subsequent to the inquest Shirer
was placed on Washington street
about.'45 minutes after he is said to
have left his boarding house, going
toward the Southern railway bridge,
by a young man who knew Shirer
well, and who said he hailed Shirer
several times, but got no reply. His
name has never been made public.
Further importance was attached for
a time to three men, one seemingly
wearing ab lue railroad uniform,
seen going from Broad out Washing
ton street about three o'clock Tues
day morning.
Still another feature of the case
Is that a young man apparently
about twenty-five years of age was
on Broad street about 8:30 o'clock
Tuesday night making anxious ef
forts to pawn a 17 jewel watch for
whatever he could get. He was intox
icated and was so maich agitated
and exhibited such unusually great
concern to dispose of the watch and
secure any amount of money he could
get, that his action caused comment.
He declared that he was obliged
to have the money right away and |
begged to be directed to a pawn shop
that might be open at that hour. In
this connection it is understood that
there is some mystery surrounding
the Shirer watch, as well as the mon
ey it is said Shirer had at the time
he is said to have left his boarding
house, and which was not found on i
the body.
The murder theory was worked on
by the local police department for
several days during which countless
clues, were run down and theories
worked out, but finally the depart
ment abandoned the idea of murder,
and concluded that Shirer either ac
cidentally was killed by falling off,
or being knocked off by a passenger
..rgine, or comitted suicide.
It is known though that the dead
man's relatives, were not satisfied
that such was the case, and the fact
was cited by Shirer's brother that
there could have been no motive for
suicide; that the young man was In
good 'health with nothing particu
lar to worry him, was makins a
good living and seemed to be enjoy
ing life; that, he had a few days
prior to his death met his brother
in Branchville and arranged to go
to Asheville with him the follow
ing Sunday.
Last Sunday an item was sent
out from Orangeburg, stating that
a negro, by the name of Red Tay
lor, said to be from Augusta, but
of whom no trace could be found
there, claimed to have seen two men
in a boat near the point where |
Shirer's body was found Tues- j
day morning, and that their actions
attracted his attention.
Aside.from the natural interest in
the case by the members of the
family, it is understood that a rail
road organization has interested it
self in pushing for a further inves
tigation, and that this organization
Is behind the developments which
have just come to light. Whether
any of these features referred to
have any direct connection with the
evidence on which the warrant was
issued, Is not known, because of the
fact that almost complete mystery
surrounds every phase of that case.
