Rockefeller Holloman, negro, was almost instantly killed late Tuesday afternoon at Rembert when struck by a bullet alleged to have been fired by Junius Preston,, another negro. Preston is held in the county jail, on a charge of murder, while Willie Lawson is held as an accessory to the crime. Holloman was shot with Lawson's pistol, according to witnesses. The two negroes charged with the killing claim that Holloman wus accidentally shot. According to the story told at the coroner's Inquest, held at Rembert Tuesday night, llolloman was sitting on the bottom step of the railroad station and Preston was seated a step or two above him. Willie Lawson came up to the pair with a pistol in his hand. Preston took the pistol from him and covered the barrel with his cap. The pistol then discharged, the bullet going through the cap lodging in the bapk of Holloman's neck. His jugular vein was severed and he died within a few minutes. The pistol was an old model .J2 caliber Iver Johnson. There was only one bullet in the weapon.? Wednesday's Sumter Item. Hethune Farm News Rethune, S. ('., October 14.?Agricultural evening classes have been attracting much attention in the sections of Timrod and Shamrock for the last month. The farmers have been meeting together and discussing their problems ar weH?as?studying experimental data on these problems. The subjects studied so far are: F-otton marketing, winter legumes. and oats. These farmers are going to form an organization to sell truck crops. Very few farmers plant enough of these crops to pay for carrying it to market, so they are going to get toi gether and all load one truck, trying to keep it on the road all the time. The minor details of the organization I have not been worked out but from the attitude of these men it should go over successfully. There has some work done in this j community in securing a community t bull. So far we have not reached a definite conclusion, but if there are enough men willing to invest some ten or twelve dollars in a good registered bull, probably a jersey will be selected as there is more jersey blood in the stock of this section. The eighth grade of agriculture classes went out to Mr. Van Parker's to treat his oats for smut. The entire class got the experience of the operation as well as helped Mr. Parker by ! doing the work. The radio commission Saturday re- ! reived an application by the Green- ; ville News-Piedmont in Greenville, for a new station using 160 K. C., 1 kilowatt, unlimited time. ^ I JUST TO REMIND YOU Only one week left to take advantage of our Special v Prices on Photographs. BRING US YOUR KODAK WORK ONE DAY SERVICE?In at 9 A.
