DAVID R. WILLIAMS DIES
SUDDENLY
Our community was shocked and
saddcncu Wednesday morning whei;
the announcement was made that
David K. Wi lianis had died suddenly
at his home about nine o'clock. Ko
was apparently in vefy good health
up to the moment ho was strick n. He
was in his library at the time. Medi
cal assistance was immediately sum
moned but when his physician reached
him life was about gone and thcr
\v: s nothing that could be done for
him. Mr. Williams had passed his
70th birthday. For many years he
resided in Camden and was at the
ho ad of the Williams Insurance |
Agency, thv oldest company in the |
. v-f bvi inr s in Camden. His:
father was associated with him in the j
insurance business. Later he sold i
out the business but it still retains his j
name. For a number of years Mr. j
Williams owned "Mulberry", the love
ly home located a few miles south of
Camden. Recently he sold *his valu
able property and was residing in
Cr.mdi n at the time of his death. A
ni.tr. of vtri.'t integrity, courteous and
generous, he was held in the highest
esteem by all who knew him. He was
v.itha! a gentleman of culture, and
was w 11 informed ()n various matters,
lit- is survived by his widow, who be
iVvc her marriage was Miss Ellen
Manning, a daughter of former Gov.
John L. Manning, of Clarendon coun
ty. He is also survived by two
laughters, Mrs. Sarah Bland Metts, of
Fort Sill, Oklahoma, and Mrs. Ellen
Manning Glover. 0f Los Angeles.
Eai'h of his daughters were with him
at the time of his death. The grief
: lieken fami'y have the profound
rympathy of our entire community
in the sorrow which came so suddenly
?nt i their lives. Funeral services for
Mr. Williams were hel l Thursday in [
Grace Episcopal church and wer"
largvly attended, a number of colored
people also being present.
Armistice Day
Sunday, November 11th, was armis
i ? ? day. It was generally observed
all over the country. Ten years
have past since the armistice waj
< igned. and as the years come and go
the observance of the day will jr.
"i?"se in interest, an] well it might
v s we pause to think of the faurful
destruction of the world war when
ten millions of the finest young men
ir. the world made the supreme sacri
fice. and many mill. on .more wevc
jv < rn:!ed. And then the fearful cost,
; which is estimated at two hundred
??ml thirty nine billion of dollars. Ful
!'? two third?. of the nations of th
| earth wore involved in this awful con
;f!iet, and the greatest tribute we enn
i.;y to the ga'lant young m :>n who
, lest their live? in t h j* struggle as w_l
| k s thos who were waunded is to see
ithat never again will there be another
I war. Talk peace, preach peace and
i prr.ct.icc brotherly love- quit miking
I r <i aifi"i'.s for war and then wc will
.have no more wars.
TRAGIC DEATH OF \ LAD
I
t "
Rufus S("vOns Instpntlv Ki'lcd When
Car Turns Over
Sunday morning about nine o'clock,
(Rtjfu.- Stevens, a lad sixteen years of
. g.\ f.or. of Mr. an i Sam Stevens, who
reside on Mill street, was instantly
j' "? i :: he rv "? 'riving a car down
'h:ll n;*?r Ivlg field and lost control
>f it. the car turning over. In the
car was hi., mother and father and
Rufus an! three other children. They
left here early Sunday morning for
Edgefield to visit a sick daughter
*'(.?(. Rufus, who had b:en driving
the delivery truck for Lang's Grocery
for the past two years, was driving
the car. .lust how he happened tr
lose control of th car is not definitely
known here, but it is said that, he wa.-,
driving down hill when the accident
occurred. His mother and sister,
Miss Lillie Stevens, were seriously
hurt and w< re rushed to a hospital
in Augusta, Ga. Mr. Stevens wa<
cut about the face and otherwise in
jured, but his injuries are not consid
eie I serious. Ruth, the twin sister
of Rufus, escaped injury. A young' r
member of the family, O'dell, escaped
injury. Latest reoprts from Mrs.
Stevens and her daughter, Miss Lillie,
were to the effect, that they had not
fully regained consciousness yesterday
but were resting as well as could be
? vpocled. Their friends here are very
anxious about them and hope *>r
their recovery, and deeply sympathize
with the family upon the death of the
lad. Thj body was interred Monday

Edgefield county, which was tho for
mer home of the Stevens family.

COUNTY SUED FOR LARGE SUM
Case Heard in Common Pleas Court
Yesterday. Verdict for the
County.
I
A suit was brought against Ker- '
shaw county for damages in the sum j
of $2"j,000 by Julian S. Moore, of
Hartsville, as a result of an automo
bile accident sustained by Mr. Moore j
just on this side of the river bridge j
about five years ago. Mr. Moore and :
some others, as we recall the accident
were returning to Hartsville and as
they had crossed the river bridge a
sign with reference to a detour was j
Iplaccd on the side of the road as the ,
| road house which is located in the j
I middle of the road for the bridge j
keepers, was being erected. The car j
in which Mr. Moor; was a passenger I
failed to observe the detour notice!
and as a result the car was wrecked
and Mr. Moore was permanently in- j
jured, his back being broken. The suit :
for damages was commenced some !
time ago and the case was hoard"!
yesterday in the common pleas court !
for Kershaw county. D. Carl Cook, '
Esq., represented the plaintiff, and
L. T, Mills, county attorney, repre
sented the county. The jury after
hearing the evidence returned a vc.r
d:ct for the defendant. A great deal
of sympathy is felt for Mr. Moore
who was so seriously and permanent
ly injured, but the jury evidently con
strued the accident as no fault of the
county but the failure of the plaintiff
to observe the notice given to make
a detour at this particular point in
the road.

Negro Commits Suicide
Edward Cook, apparently about
thirty years of age, shot and killed
himself on Market street late Sunday
afternoon. He had been having some
trouble with his wife, and it is said
was apparently trying to persuade
her to return to him. One party win
[saw something of the tragedy said
that he apparently was trying to hand
his wife some money ? or that he took
it to be money, and she refused to
take it. He beat her n pretty badly,
so much so that she had to be taken
to the hospital for treatment, but i!
is e.xpected that she will recover.
Cook then placed the gun near his
temple and pulled the trigger with
his foot, blowing off n part of his
head. His body was taken to Col
lins undertaking establishment to be
prepared for burial. An inquest was
held by the Coroner Monelay morning,
and the verdict was in accordance with
the facts stated above. It is said thai
Cook came here from below Spring
Hill and hnd worked with the paving

Cotton (iinnefl.
According to a report furnished us
by William I). Cook, special agent
e.f (he department of commerce, there
were 11,940 bales of cotton ginnod
j in Kershaw county prior to Novemb- r
list, crop of I92K, as against 20tf>0<?
I bales for the corresponding date last
year. This shows a shortage over

'MRS. MAY FIELD Gl'EST OF RO
TAHY CLUB
Makes Strong Appeal for a Much
Needed Work.
| On Thursday, November 1st, li'2S,
the Rotary Club of Canv.len was on- :
tertained by a delightful talk by Mr--. I
W. J. Mayfield, who was the Club's
guest for luncheon on that day. Mrs.;
Mayfie d chose as her subject the
"Social \\ el fare Work of Camden an.! i
Kershaw County," which proved to be
most instructive and brought forte,
discussion from anions the memb is
resulting finally into a motion pled#- |
ing the aid of the Rotary Club in
furthering the cause espoused by Mrs. ,
Mayfield, in an effort to help her
carry on. Of particular interest was
the report of Mrs. Mayfield for the!
previous year as Secretary of the
Associated Charities f.?r Cam ! n j
which will be found elsewhere in thi-- |
paper, demonstrating the deplorabl j
condition that exists in the tn.i-?ry'
of this worthy organization, and also
?howing the meagre contributions
made for a work that means so much
to our city poor. People in ac'.ii '.!
need could scarcely be furnishel tin
bare necessities of life with the a
mount donated to the Assocku.
Charities for til. fisciil year t
passed. The sick, the poorly dad.
those suffering from hunger an I col
white and colored, were adminisU re !
to to the extent of the fun's but
th'se funds were not ami!.' lo '
the absolutely necessary work that
it is our duty, as citizens of Camden,
to do for those in our midst.
As a result of Mrs. Mayfield's talk,
three committees from the three fol
lowing organizations: Rotary Club.
Shrine Club of Camden, and American
Legion, were appointed to meet v.i;'
Mrs. Mayfield for the purpose of
perfecting an organization to put t ' . i
natter before the people and to make
:\ drive for funds with which t > re
plenish the Treasury nf the Associat
ed Charities. The Committee from
the Rotauy Club consisted of the
Community Service Committee of that
organization with the following mem
bers: John K. de Loach, chairman:
I. G. Richards, John M. Villepigue,
L. O. Funderburk, and L. I. Guion.
The Committee from the Shrinn Club
'?onsistcd of W. F. Nettles, Chairman;
T. V. Walsh, John R. Goodale, G. A.
Creed, and W. R. Zemp. The ? >m
mittee from the American Legion |
consisted of Sam Knresh. Chairman;
R. M. Kennedy, Jr., .T. Whitaker, Jr.,
W. A. Clark, R. N. Shannon. The
chairmen of these committees met
with Mrs. Mayfield and organized the
City into districts for the purpose of
launching a drive in the near future.
Enough cannot be said for the
great need for the continuance of th
Welfare Work in this City, and this
year, more than in any oth< r year
possibly, the demand will be greater
upon thr energies ()f Mrs. Mayfield
which she has so freely given and
'or which this City is deeply grateful,
nnd upon the treasury of the Asso
ciated Charities. Let us think of Un
people right at home, just under oil
eyes. What will their Chris' mas be
'ike. And yet this appeal which will
be made will not only include Christ
mas, but the funds derived then from
must suffice for an entire war nor
will it alone purchase a spark of happi
ness that soon dies out. but will sup
ply food, clothes, and medicine to
those actually in ne<d.
GIVE TO THE ASSOCIATED j
CHARITIES! Not if it hurts only)
if from the heart.
