The Pageland Journal Angnst 23,1916 ' Local News > * Rev. J. W. Elk ins is conduct '.ng a meeting at Zion this week. Tde Marshville High school opens for its fall session next Monday. There will be a game of ball here this afternoon between Dudley and Pageland. The meeting at Providence last week was a splendid one. There were 25 additions, 22 for baptism, 2 restored, 1 by letter. Rev. J. M. Sullivan, of Ridge land, did some excellent preach ing. At the close of the meeting at Providence last week the friends of the pastor, Rev. J. D. Purvis, presented him with a nice set of buggy harness. At the night service Friday night while the preacher was in the house the old set of harness was taken ofr and the new set put on the horse. When Mr. Purvis was ready to hitch up he saw the new harness and thought he had gone to the wrong horse. Finally he realized what had happened, and his feelings then may be better ima -:i?i n^uicu iuau ucdli iucu. Cole L. Blease has agreed to make a speech at Marshville on October 21st. The folks up there are looking forward to this as a great event. Much they have heard of South Carolina's famous Coley, and curiosity to see him will be a large factor in drawing a record breaking crowd to the town on this day. The revival meeting conducted by Rev. J. W. Elkins at Antioch church last week was the best in 20 years, according a man who has been a member of that church that long. There were ten additions, whereas there had been no additions before in : 7 or 8 years. This church, was greatly weakened by the organ imtinn r*f tVlf? r?hnrr?V? at M> Croghan several years ago. i Mrs. J. W. Elkins brought a ] Mango to this office Monday , morning. No, it is not an ani ( mal nor an insect nor a fish, but , is a fruit. Her son, Mr. Will Elkins who lives in Florida, sent a basket full of this tropical fruit to his parents here. The mango is oblong in shape; yellow or yellowish green in color; has a thick rind and a hard central stone. A taste for the fruit must be cultivated. ( Mr. Albert Leaird, whose home is near Angelus, was se- i riously hurt when he fell into a hole at the Pageland Garage last Wednesday night, and Sat- ( urday all hopes of saving his ( 1!# ' me were given up. his condi- , tion improved however by Sunday morning and it was seen that he could live. A wind storm came up Wednesday about night, and Mr. Leaird was holding a light for Mr. Roy Fun derburk to run an automobile ( into the garage. He was walking backward ahead of the car when he fell into the hole the workmen use in getting under the cars, striking his side against the edge of the floor. He was 1 rendered unconscious for some ' time, and it was found that he was hurt internally. He was , mrrif?rt In Iho linmo r>f Hr I? r1 ?vr ?u^ 'iv/<aiv vri I IV.

Dr. McLeod, of Florence, was summoned to Derform an onpmtinn hut when he came he agreed with the local physicians that he could live but a short time, and no operation was performed. ' Miss Threatt, splendid nurse that she is, began to treat him and a change for the better was ] noticeable in a few hours. From that time he has steadily improved, and now he is well on the way to recovery. The third quarterly meeting of the Jefferson circuit of the c M.
