The discovery was made by Mt.j Oliver Jones, who noticed that boards' on the top of the hole had lately j been crushed irt. A coroner's jury ( was empanelled by Coroner Clements and with Victor Ward as foreman reached a verdict that the negro ; came to his death at the hands of parties unknown. It is believed by negroes and white people familiar with the surroundings that Robert Peay crushed tho negroe's head and then threw his -body in the well on February 8tn, and told his intimates that Elms had gone to a construction camfp. It js also said that he had threatened to i kill out tho entire Elms familv and in trying to carry out this threat nearly heat his wife to death in her house. Rose Elms, the mother-inlaw, made her-escape out of a window while the healing was going on. Ivobel'l lYay, later during the night, went to the house of a neighbor for shelter out of the rain, and while in the. house got possession 1 of a ;;un and blew the top of his ' head off. killing himself instantly. i Roy Duval, lb, Rochester, X.

An Early Railroad \ About 18G7 the only railroad in Laurens county was from Laurens through 'Clinton to Newberry, and it was a failure financially. It would run from Laurens to Newberry one day and try to get to Laurens the next day. The train did not have any section hands to keep it repaired and would frequently run off the track. With no crew to help, it would then blow rts whistle for some time until a group of country people and its few passengers would get together and put it back on the track, ?nd einee ft ran at a very alow speed no one was hurt when these mishaps occurred. After the hands quit the road the cattle guards would not keep the stock that ran at large from getting in the farm fields. My father put a gate across the track at his field and we little fellows would/(pen the gate for the train to ge$. through. It we failed to do this they would atop themselves, open the gaite and drive through. The water for ithe engine was pumped by hand with the old tank leaking about as fast as water was pumped into it.
