The deceased was a Confederate soldier, a good citi zen and a man who until recently was remarkably active. He hadimany friends all over the county. There was a shooting last Monday night in the Fork. Mr. Edgeberth Lee. was shot in the arm by his cousin, Wallace Lee, in the public road near the home of Mr. R. D. Thompson. The cause of the shooting is not known as there had been no trouble between these cousins so far as anybody can learn, and it is thought that it was done *in a spirit of play or malicious mischief. The shot man was not hurt seriously. According to the published notice of the County Superintendent of Educa tion, the white teachers of the county will meet at the graded school building Saturday to reorganize the Teachers' Association.

Died yesterday afternoon after about a week's illness of hemnorrharie fever, Percy Tennent at his home in Summer too. This young mnan was about 21 years of age and very popular, everybody like . "Percy." His friends are sincerely sad dened by his untimely taking off, cut down in the bloom of youth when there] was such a fine promise of future use-, fulness is enough to bring sorrow to the hearts of those who knew this boy and appreciated his worth. Percy had many friends among the young people of this town-he was a favorite in base ball circles, and his conduct was always so genteel that he endeared himself to the elder ones also. We extend our sympa thy to the grief stricken family. He was a so of Mr. an Mrs. . E. Tennant. The whistle of the Seaboard railroad will be heard in this county before many months, and we think if our city fathers will get busy the enterprise will be hastened, as we think the railroad people are now ready to open up nego tiations for concessions. If Manning gets in a position to offer a concession similar to that given by Bishopville, there is no doubt in our mind of the road coming into this town, but if there is nothing done on the part of the peo ple here, everybody laying low hoping that somebody else will do the giving, and then take advantage of the progress to squeeze we may not get the road at all. It will be remembered that some weeks ago W. T. Coker, of New Ziun, lied after a brief illness; the deceased had only been married a short time, but his married life had not been pleas int, and when he died his neighbors nowing the relations between the man tnd Ibis wife were not satisfied; they :aused an autopsy to be held, and the man's stomach examined for traces of poison. Dr. C. E. Gramble sent the ;tomach to Clemson college, and on last Wednesday Magistrate Baird called ,he jury of inquest together to re :eive the report from the State chemist Dr. R. N. Bracket, which was that rhey were no traces of poison in the ;tomach, and the jury after hearing ,his report rendered a verdict accord ingly, that,the deceased came to his leath from natural causes. Rev. Preston B. Wells, a former pas ;or of the Manning Methodist church, md his family, have been spending sev )ral days in Manning visiting relatives md on Sunday morning Mr. Wells )reached in the Methodist church in ihe place of Rev. F. H. shuler, the pas or, who conducted the services at An Irews Chapel. Mr. We!!s had a splendid congrega cu, tut if it hdi been known that he was to preach the church would not lave held the crowd, as he is popular ,opuiar with all faiths and creeds in his town. His sermon was a splendid ,ffort, enjoyed by all who heard him, d those had never heard him before were impressed with his zeal and ear estness, his remarkable flow of langu ge and argument, and his grand ora ory. Under the regulations of the Metho list church Mr. Shuler will not be re urned to Manning, his four years ser rice will have expired when conference onvenes.and we know of no man in the nference whom the people here would ather to follow Mr. Shuler than P. B. wells. Manning was indeed fortunate n having Mr. Shuler the past four ears and if the rules could be suspend d they would gladly petition confer ace to'have him to come back, but this s impossible, therefore they would be lad if Bishop Kilgo would remember is old boyhood friends in Manning and end Mr. Wells to them,promising now a advance to see that he keeps straight yen if The Times editor becomes his ersonal chaperone. Country Club Entrtained. Summerton, October 13.-The Coun ry Club enjoyed a very pleasant meet mg with Mrs. Wallace Mathis on the fternoon of the 9th.

Union and all others who are inter ested in the price of cotton: As a meeting of the County Farmers jion, October 10th, 1912, a resolution was aaopted instructing a committee ppointed by the president of the coun y union to draft and issue a call to all e members of the union and all those who are interested in the price of cotton o hold their cotton off the market at he present prices This is certainly an >pportune time to hold your cotton and hereby get much better prices than re now prevailing. With a short crop md a splendid demand fo'r the manu 'ctured products of cotton and the ar.ks willing to loan money on ware ouse receipts of 6 per cent, every farmer should be able to hold the reater part of his cotton and at the iame time liquidate his debts.
