Bowman, Nov. 3.?Special: Anoth er-foul murder has been committed near: Bowman, the victim being a negro who has lived in this section tor five or six years by the name of JakerKeitt. From the evidence ad . duced it Is clear that he was mur ?' . dered Saturday night, as he was in town late that evening. George Dantzler, who moved down in this section last spring, brought the news to' town about /noon Monday. A phone message was sent to Magi fr ustrate D. B. Berry arid he arrived in town shortly afterwards," accom panied by his constable, Sam W. Berry. ? i 'Constable Berry soon located Dantzler and placed him in the guard house awaiting further developments. A jury of inquest was summoned and went out to view the body of the deceased negro and then ad journed any further action until yes terday morning, but in the mean time Dantzler stated that Vandy Bowman committed the murder. This he denied, saying that Dantzler did the killing. After further pre ? liminary questioning George Gavin, a brother-in-law of Bowman, figured conspicuously into the game also. Warrants were sworn out for all three' of the above and they were placed in the town guard house, awaiting the action of the coroner's inQueet yesterday morning. It : appears plainly that the de ceased was struck a crushing blow on the side of the head with a piece of . iron or something * quite heavy. A -gun barrel and stock were found sear rthe body, giving unmistakable evidence that this was the weapon with- which the foul deed waa com mitted. The place where the murder was committed was little more than a mile, from town, out in an open field/- less than 100 yards from a publfc road. ?Each of the prisoners, upon .the convening of the coroner's-inquest: yesterday morning,-underwent a rig id examination separately and the verdict of the jury was that "The deceased, Jake Keitt came to his death from a blow from a gun in the Sands of Vandy Bowman and that George Gavin and George Dantz ler were accessories to the deed." It Is said that Gavin wanted to turn states evidence -when- he found out the. true meaning of the verdict of the cojonerte jury." They were all taken to Orangeburg and lodged in jail yesterday afternoon. - - Dundee. VALUABLE BALE OF COTTON. Mrs. Gilbert Way Move; to Orange burg and Other Notes. Branchville, Nov. 2. ? Special: While Alex Summers, who is a col ored man that lives ea Mr. J. D. Byrd'8 place near town, has not got the reputation for ,marl/*ting the first bale of cotton here this sea son, he certainly has the record of being the one to get more money paid to him for one bale of cotton that anyone that has sold cotton here this season .or anyother sea son in recent years. Alex sold this bale otf cotton to Mr. P. C. Dukes last week and it brought him $94.11 for the cotton and ir he had sold the seed he would , have realized $13 from the proceeds thereof. Th? cotton and seed, therefore, would have brought l^m $107:11, which is a very nice sum to realize from the sale of one bale of short staple cotton and seed. Certainly an in dustrious colored man can make money by farming. Mrs. Gilbert Way, who has been living in Branchville for some time, has purchased, a house and lot in Orangeburg and will move there in the near" future to make that city her future Tome. Mrs". W?y "is a lady that-imakes friends wherever she goes1 and we are certainly sorry to give her up. The graded school of this place will have holiday on Thursday and Friday of this week, in order that the teachers and pupils may have an opportunity to attend the one great event in South Carolina, the state Fair.
