Wier Who Has Served the People of Laurens County ... —Faithfully .—Efficiently —Decently and Believes in tempering justice with mercy. L. ‘ To the Voters of Laurens County: A( Home or Abroad, in WRr Industries, or in the Armed Services: Having announced my candidacy for re-election to the office of Sheriff of Laurens County, I deem It not only proper, but my duty to the public, that I render a brief account of my record as a citi zen and as an offioer. My entire family and I are natives of Laurens County. During the critical days of World War I, I served the armed forces of our country for 22 months, 11 months of the time overseas. My only son is now serving in the air forces over Italy and Germany. Soon after my discharge at the conclusion of the war in 1918, I became a law enforcement officer in the city of Clinton where I served for 12 consecutive years. You then elected me as Sheriff of our county, in which office I have continued to serve you in a fair, honest, and diligent manner for the past 8 years. I have always made an earnest effort to perform my duties faithfully, efficiently, and decently toward ALL people, seeking the TRUTH about all complaints and conditions coming to my attention. I have tried to present fairly and truthfully all evidence discovered: showing either the guilt or the Innocence of the ac cused; neither favoring the high nor oppressing those in low and humble circumstances. I have endeavored to inspire the youth of our county to noble aims, encouraging them to abstain from the use of intoxicants, aim not to associate with idle, dissolute and corrupt persons; thereby preventing delinquency among them. I highly advocated the Pro bation Law recently passed by our state, whereby young men or first offenders are placed on probation and in many cases become useful citizens. I shall never lose faith In the, youth of our county and shall always endeavor to cooperate with the churches and civic organizations In the work of youth welfare. During my term of office I have apprehended and brought back to this county from other states 30 persons who were escaped con- victs or were charged with violation of the law. In the majority of these .cases, the apprehension was effected by identification of g finger prints, a system which I have put into operation since assuming this office. All civil papers lodged In my office are served promptly and courteously. , I again recommend to our delegation the need for a police radio system in our ^tate. This system will do much to discourage criine and also aid in the quick apprehension of violators. During the present emergency, my office force and I deem it not only a duty but indeed a privilege to be able to offer our with relatives.
