, The Pageland Journal November 28,1917 f Local News * J The Mt. Croghan items reach ed us too late to be inserted this week. Mr. V. G. Griffin lost a good horse Monday night.

This reach ed us too late for this week. It will be published next week. I Messrs. A- M. and B. C. Moore have bought the L. A. Camp bell hardware stock at Chesterfield, and Mr. A. M.

Richardson have returned H from Knoxville, Tenn. where they went last week to buy cattle and hogs. Thev bought w 88 head of cattle and nearlv a I hundred head of hogs, making r a shipment of three car loads. Because of freight congestion, they thought best to have the cars billed to Monroe and drive the cattle and haul the hogs through. The cattle range in weight from five or six hundred to one thousand pounds. i ne nogs range from small pigs to good size hogs. The hogs are for sale, but the cattle will be fattened for the northern market. Messrs. Graves Richardson and L. L. Parker each have a one ihird interest in the ' cattle. Mr. Donald Mills' leg was broken between the ankle and knee Sunday afternoon when he was struck by a car being driven bv Mr. Mint Brewer. The accident occurred in front of the home of Mr. H. B. Graves, two miles and a half north of Pageland. Mr. Mills was standing beside the road near a mail box when ?the car approached. With Mr. Brewer in the car were Mr. J. T. Mills, two ladies and some children. Mr. Brewer was just learning to drive, and, following the custom of new drivers, he went straight toward what he wanted to miss. Mr. Mills was knocked down into the ditch and was caught there. When the car was pulled away it was found that his leg was broken as above stated. Drs. luinanks and Duncan set the limb, and Mr. Mills is said to be recovering as well as could be expected: The occurrence was purely accidental, and Mr. Brewer regrets the accident as! much as any one. I Enter into the Thanksgiving spirit wholeheartedly, but avoid the spirits. Messrs. Lester Torn, Sam Crawley, Willie llascoe and Frank Steen of Ruby left Monday to enter the navj*.

He has gone from school to school and appealed to the few patrons who attended and to the children. He asks that each farmer sow 2 acres of wheat for each plow. Of course it is late but good wheat has been made from later sowings than this. When a call like this comes the farmers and business men do not give it the attention it deserves. The meeting for Pageland was announced in this paper last week, and the announcement had been made more than once at school. When the time arrived, one lone farmer put in his appearance. Mr. Tiller spoke to the school children, however, and made an effort to reach the men thiough the children. I Just what the results of the campaign will be can not be siaiea ai mis time. Mr. John J. Mangum was killed by a neighbor in Ports mouth, Va. early Saturday morning. He was shot twice through the abdomen with a Winchester rifle, and the balls passed entirely through the body. Mr. Mangum was an employee at the Seaboard shops in Portsmouth, and he worked at night. His horns was several blocks away, and a friend of his had lived about two blocks from his home, bul bad moved without the knowledge of Mr. Mangum and a stranger had moved in. It seems that Mr. Mangum left the shops earlier than usual that morning, and as had been his custom, he stopped at the home where his friend had lived. This was about 2 V viuva aliu W liCU llic occupant of the house heard a man attempting: to enter he shot him. The wounded man was taken to police headquarters and later to a hospital, where an oper ation was performed. Before he revived from the ether he died about 11 o'clock Saturday morning. Bradshaw, who did the shooting, was arrested, but later released, pending a further investigation. Friends of the deceased came with the body to Pageland Monday, and they stated that the man claimed that he shot him because he thought a burglar was attempting to enter his home.
