Carson was urged a few weeks ago to make the race for the legislature from this tjounty during the primary this summer. While greatly appreciating the solicitation of his friends Mr. Carson for business reasons alone cannot enter the campaign. It is unlikely at present that Batesburg will have a candidate for the house. Hon. McKendree Ban present member from this county who resides on his farm two miles north of Batesburg with a law office here will likely offer for reelection, at least he is being- urged by his friends to do so. Mr. Barr is a graduate of the University of South Carolina in both academic and law departments. He is well qualified for the duties of the office and a gentleman of the highest integrity of character. Mr. B. Hoyt Hartley of Atlanta is visiting his mother, Mrs. D. P. Hartley, and sister, Mrs. J. A. Watson. The remains of Mrs. Mary Eva Quattlebaum, who died at her home in Shandon last Wednesday were brought to Batesburg'for interment.
