George Sfieppord YeldeH George Sheppard Yeldell had a frail body, but he had a keen mind and strong character a mi he won the respect as weU as the warm devotion of a great many people in Greenwood County. A bubbling sense of humor gave Mm a cheery outlook on lifer, and for most people a visit to the courthouse was not complete without a few minutes of conver sation in the magistrate’s office. He loved to tease and he could take it as well as hand it out in strong doses. A magistrate deals with a lot of situations in which ordinary citizens become involved in le gal tangles, many for the first time, and Magistrate YeldeU’s knowledge of the law and sense of proportion and common sense allowed the duties of the office to be carried out properly but with compassion and understan ding. His death removes the second county 'official in Uttle more thAn two months. In both cases strong determination and abUi- ty overcame physical handicaps and brought superior pubUc ser vice.
