27 years old.
Mr. Ellison Funderburk died
at his home at Matthews Tuesday
morning at 3 o'clock, and
, the body was buried in the afternoon
of the same day in the
cemetery at Matthews. He was
about 78 years old, a member of
' the Baptist church, and a splendid
fellow. He was a brother of
1 Messrs. W. H., Jerry and J. T.
Funderburk of Dudley. A large
| family of children survive.
t The new secretary of war,
. Newton D. Baker, was an old
, school-mate of Mrs. A. F. Funderburk,
of Pageland, at her home
in Martinsburg, W. Va., and he
was a member of her father's
Sunday school class for a great
' many years. The secretary's

, Messrs. J. E. West, Baxter

West and Luther West were
1 convicted of the charge of riot
j in the Chesterfield county court
Friday night about 8 o'clock,
J after a trial lasting five days. All
the others named in the warrant
r were acquitted. The exami1
nation of witnesses continued
through the first four days, and
* Friday was lawyer's day. The
attorneys for each side plead for
5 their clients on the ground that
t thev had alreadv hppn miniclioH
i and that the other side was cer5
tainly to blame. The solicitor
I and his helper plead for the con.
viction of all on the ground that
I they had all come to Pageland
i on March 12th 1915 armed and
t prepared for a battle and that
t they engaged in a mutual coms
bat, that it was immaterial who
L fired the fatal shots, and that the
i hand of one was the hand of all.
. The lawyers finished their argul
ments and the case was given to
; the jury a short time before night
; Friday. After an absence from
the court oom of about three
hours the jury returned a verdict
r of not guilty as to all the defend'
ants except the five boys named
above. The judge fined each of
. these $1">0 each, or a year on the
chain gang. Notice of appeal
I was at once given by counsel
for the Wests.

A Representative in Congress
s took a friend from home to the
t Senate gallery one afternoon,
. says The Washington Times.
; As the friend looked down upon
i the scene his ga/.e rested upon
i the clerical garb of a man in
front of the Vice President's
i chair.
i Since he seemed particularly
! interested, the representative exi
plained:
