Due West, S. C., May 9.?The past
w^ek has been a busy one in re'al
estate circles in and and around Due
West, more land traders having been
made than at any time in the history
nf the town. The most important
transaction was the lands of Mr. A
Seldon Kennedy to the Davis Realty
Company. This deal invoked between
$80,000 and $90,000. This big
tract of land lies east of Cowan's
Creek and extends down the Brick
House road as far as George Dusenberxy's,
or the Billy Cowan place.
The Davis Realty Company plans to
develop this property for sale to
white farmers. At present the farm
is worked by Mr. Kennedy through
negro tenants. The bowlers erf this
big tract of land are not more than a
mile from Due West. The l?cal agent
for the Davis peopJe is Mr. A. R.
Fowler, a new citizen of Due West.
Mr. Fowler has also sold recently for
Frof. Paul Grier his farm on the
Donalds road two miles out of Dv *?
West. Part of the Grier farm went
to Mr. Leonard, who lives at the J. JE.
Todd place, and part went to Pressly
Brothers. The McDavid place, on the
Donalds road, has been sold by Mr.
Fowler for J. R. Putman to James R.
Todd for a consideration of $10,000.
Still another deal was the purchase
by Brice and Mabry from, 0. Y.
Brownlee of a farm opposite Joe
Haddon's, the price paid being about
$125 per acre. *
Mr. J. H. Wren has sold his store
building and lumber warehouses to
John R. Winn. This joins the sidings
and the depot grounds of the Due
West Railway. Mr. Wren reserves
his stock of goods. Our correspondent
understands that Mr. Winn paid

The Due West Oil Mill has ordered
from A. C. Tuxbury Lumber Company,
Charleston, a ready-built
house for the use of the superintendent
of the oil mill. The house will be
built in the western part of the town
joining the home of Mr. Charlie
Ware
The Redpath Chautauqua is in full
swing in Due West this week and will
give programs through next Tuesday,
.the 11th. Large crowds are in attendance.
A significant feature of
the attendance is that our neighbors
i from Level Land, Donalds, Bethlehem,
Arborville and other places
are coming in for the shows. More
automobiles were in town the" first
night of the Chautauqua than kave
ever been on the streets before. The
twelve guarantor, whr> Jfest spring
had faith enough to believe that Due
WW pftnld Kunnort a $1375 show
have had their confidence justified.
The season tickets were sold out before
noon of the first day and there
is a surplus in the bpnk for next
year. The sale of tickets was pushed
by the Due West post of the American
Legion, W. L. Brownlee commander,
but the ladies sold tickets
right and left too.
Nearly all of the Due West ministers
and theologs are in Gastonia
this week attending the meeting of
Synod. The modenator is Rev. R. F.
Bradley, of Troy, S. C. Among the
important- items up for discussion
disposition of the mission work in
Mexico or not will be settled. Then,
the church court will determine
what shall be done with the surplus
of money gathered in last fall in the
Forward Movement campaign
Church union with the U. P. church, i
