He borrowed a horse and buggy from a nearby farmer and made for Cheraw, where he abandoned them, leaving the horse comfortably "blanketed." The local merchantsof Orangeburg county say that the supply of corn in that county is the shortest in years. Tne large quantity of "Fuss X,' "80 Horse" and tfce mild and gentle "76" consumed in this State by African pickaninnies and Young Americas is not accountable for this short age.
