dg- ~ Mr. M?nn> Dental. ... - [Newberry Obs*?vir] Ile?. O. D. Maun, member of the Leg islature, from Oooueo, publishes a letter lu thia iMue denying moat positively that ho had anything whatever tb do in 1892 with the proposition to move the. Now berj^oirouffc parsonage from Newberry to tipo country. The Observer bad un derstood it that way, and PO stated in cor?itoenting on Mr, Mann's refusai to vote for Senator Tillman at the recent session of the Legislature. There was no desire to do Mr. Mano any injustice, nor to interfere with his right to vote as Lo pieries, even whia he is under oath ; bot his refusal in this oase was sc uu ?ual that WS thought it S proper subject | comment, and not Improper to oon tat his position with ref oronoo to Sena- ? tor Tillman In 1892 and 1007-not under taking to say whether he was right or wrong at one time or the other. Our only.regret ii that in stating bl?" attitude in 1892 we represented hits as being co partisan as to take part in s proposition to move the location of the circuit par eoflsgo from the town of Newberry, to tho oountry. Ha says he had nothing to do with any proposition of the kind, and we accept his statement as true as a mat ter of course, and regret the error. i -??
