Just after the war "refugees atad
inagees from Tenn-essee" came tin
jarms to our State and others {to
[in persecution from their nei^hrs
who had fought or sympathised
th the North. Our people met th<3m

to our people under certain

i companion, whom ne naa taicen up
with in that county and left for parts
unknown. Ho told his acquaintances
that they were waylaid by the United
States constables, between whom and
the^e refugees were a deadly feud. The
matter was soon blrwn over for people
at that day had no time nor inclination
to give heed to yesterday, they
thought only of today.
For more than a decade after the
I war peddling tobacco through this
State was a very remunerative busi:
ness and the familiar "Mountain
| Scoops" could be seen in every part of
j the State. These men would ship their
; tobacco to some central depot or
J town in the country in which they intended
operating, then bring their
: wagons over the mountains and pedI
die for months around this central
! section.
During this time a man from Stokes
; county, X. C., with his son, a lad of
thirteen or fourteen, was operating
from Augusta, but in the counties of
' this State. During one of his trips he
I was joined by a man, well mounted,
' with the appearance of a well-to-do
| trader. Ke proposed to buy both
| teams and wagons, with their con
cents, mis kiiiu ol a always
suited the tobacconist as it gav?
him a quick sale with the promise of
: a better and cheaper outfit at home,
i After riding nearly all day, haggling
i over the price and conditions, the
trade was effected. The trader asked
the North Carolinian to ride with
him through the country to a little
town where he would get the money,
j This was agreed to and both rode
| away, the tobacconist never to be
I heard of again. He returned that
| night or next morning and
told the lad that the father
had urgent reasons tor returning
home at once, the boy to follow next
day. The trader ginving the boy suffiI
ceient money to defray his expenses
j home, he took the two teams and
j wagons and drove towards Augusta.
' Tin****, +-V, ^ r-cio/ ?>!or! hnmp Tiic ripn

pie had heard nothing of the father.
Telegrams were sent to every point
where ther-e was a likelihood of his
visiting but nothing was known of
! him. Th-en the theory of foul play
j was the only explanation. By some
' reasons, the people in Stokes got into
j communication with Sumter authori!
ties and was assured the murderer
1 from all descriptions was no other
I
than the missing Marshal. The friends
of the murdered man organized a party
to hunt for the lost tobacconist,
and run down the murderer. I have
forgotten all the details, but they met
Marsha] in the public road down in
Florida where he had sold one of the
teams and peddling from the other.
With the money lie found on the
person of his "victim he took a waybill
for several hundred boxes of tobacco,
j then lying in the depot in Augusta.
From this he ereplenished his stock as
fast as he could sell out a load. When
overtaken Marshal had on the hat
worn by his victim with a bullet hole
through the hat band. On his way to
Sumter he confessed to nothing nor
made any explanation whatever. When
they reached the city of Sumter a
j great crowd was awaiting them, among
I them the brother or the muraerea man.
Marshal sat ?n the seat with the
driver while one of the guards sat by
him with a Colt's revolver in hand.
Just as they neared the crowd in the
street the prisoner suddenly rose from
his seat and gave the guard a crushing
blow over the head with the
heavy iron shackles on his wrist, felli
ing him to the bottom of the wae;on.
j Then he leaped for lib-'-rty between
I the horses. But <is h? reached the
| end of the wagon tongue the driver
! pulled a derringer from his coat pockI
et and shot him through the heart.
; The murdt/ed man was never found,
j or at least, identified, for along in
! that part of the country so many
{ Yankee soldiers and outlaws were kill!
ed and left in the swamps that a dead
| man's bones excited no curiosity.
The Cattle Tick.
The Augusta Chronicle says: "From
| authoritative sources comes the in|
formation that a plan will soon be ini
j troduced in South Carolina whereby
! that State will inaugurate at one time<
j a State-wide campaign for the eradij
cation of the cattle tick, the p?st
I which causes so much cattle loss and
saps vitally from the industry in this
section of the country." This is good
news.?Orangeburg Times and Democrat.
Tell it to Mr. S. M. Duncan. If
-everybody went at things with th^ determination
of Mr. Duncan something
j would be accomplished. He will be
th -re at the opening of that State-wide
, campaign.
