Wiley Ouzts and Alex. Watson, along with Milton Strother j and Scott Stevens, attended the "white, black and tan" convention in Columbia and got some Tolbert fleas on 'em, and judging from the way they are squirming to clear their skirts, the fleas are bitin' vigorous ly.

There is much at stake. Register and vote. Two Strong Teams. Friday afternoon a spirited game of foot ball was played between the teams of the Edgefield High School and the Ninety Six High School. As the teams were evenly matched the game proved to be interesting from the start. Although the contending forces played with ironlike endur ance and determination, not a score was made by either side. The Edge field boys are a splendid set and our people should support them loyally. Another game will be played Friday afternoon between the Edgefield and Johnston teams. A large number should turn out to witness the game. That was asplendid body of young people that came down from Ninety Six Friday. We hope to have them visit Edgefield again. Had Passed Age Limit.

Governor Harvey has proven that he is on the alert to serve the people in every posible way, and having been informed that an unfortunate situation existed in Edgefield because of the very strained relations be tween the sheriff and supervisor, an indictment and a counter indictment having been made, he requested these two men to come to his office for a conference over the matter, looking to an adjustment. Of course, both of these officials reported to him as re quested and after reasoning with Mr. Swearingen and Mr. Edmunds a com mon ground was reached, through the chief executive's good offices as P'sace-makfr, and the following state ment, dictated by Governor Harvey, was signed by Mr. Swearingen and Mr. Edmunds, which now, henceforth and forever buries the hatchet. Gov ernor Harvey and both of these men are to be commended for this ami cable adjustment of an acute and un fortunate situation. It has caused very general rejoicing over the coun ty. Anna Quiller, the "bone of con tention" or original cause of the trouble, was transferred to the peni tentiary some weeks ago, so she is out of the way and serving her sen tence in Columbia.

September 14, 1922 Whereas, the difference of opinion o?j&r. W. R. Swearingen and Mr. A. A. Edmunds arose# a few weks ago and as a result blows and words were exchanged beween the parties, and whereas, Mr. Edmunds later armed himself and returned to the scene of the difficulty, but surrendered said arms at the solicitation of friends and officials and returned to his home. And whereas mutual friends effect ed an agreement that the parties would allow the differences to remain for friends to adjust, but later in the diay, Mr. Swearingen appeared! to r?sume the difficulty and this has brought about greater intensity of feeling and resulted in legal steps being taken by both sides, ali of which is prejudicial to the best in terests of the individu?is concerned their families, their friends and the welfare of the state. Therefore, it has been mutually and jointly agreed by and between the above par ties simultaneously and jointly to ex press regret to each other, to the community, to all parties and inter ests involved for whatever participa tion they may have had in the said difference and it is further agreed that all legal or other procedures now pending will be immediately withdrawn and not resumed. This agreement is made in honor and in good faith by and between the two contending parties as men, Masons and as patriotic citizens. W. R. SWEARINGEN. A. A. EDMUNDS, Witnesses: W..G. HARVEY. W. B.
