by the excessive rains of the

off. It is estimated that not over
65 per cent of a crop will be made
in this section.

weather bureau there Was over
two inches more, rainfall the]

Parties arriving here Monday
evening from Crattan brought
news of the drowning Monday
[ morning of one of the foreigners
i employed at. the plant of the

'of the dead man, who was a
; Spaniard, could not be learned.

[drowning, a:, reported, follow:
Monday being labor day, the for:
eigners were given a holiday,
[ and six of these went down to
I the old Dinkins ferry site, on
I Catawba river, to go in swim;ming.
The water at this point
j reaches a dc.>th in places of fifi
teen feet. One of the party, the
Spaniard, not being able to swim.
crawled out on a willow liml? ;
which stretched out over the
water to watch the others. While '
the others were out in a canoe
enjoying their sport, the Spaniard
fell from his perch and sank
beneath the surface of the water, i
He came to the top twice but
went down the third time before
his companions could reach him.
The body was recovered Tuesday
morning, after a search of
about twenty-four hours.

been reported around here that a
Tresspass Law introduced by me
and passed by the legislature two
years ago prohibits one from
walking across another's lands.

used for election purposes. I
would be glad to show the Act
: to anyone interested. .
