Brief Items of Interest Throughout
the Town and County.
The local statistician. H. J Bellinger,
furnishes us with the lolloping
ginning figures for Bamberg county
prior to December 13: 1 020, 20,01 1
bales; 1919, 23,986 bales.
The many friends of Mrs. W. E.
Free, who underwent an operation at
tfie Baptist hospital, Columbia, last .
week, will be glad to know that, she .
she is rapidly regaining her strength.
The Christmas season passed with
- ix.. ???ofV??ir* nn_ I I
out a casuaiiy, wmvu ia
usual. So far as has been reported *
there were no disturbances of any
kind to amount to anything any- (
where in the county.
The Christmas season has been 1
made enjoyable to the town and '
county generally on account of the
return of the school girls and boys. J
A large number of Bamberg county *
young people are attending schools
away from home.
The plant of the Lime-Cola comi
pany at Springfield was destroyed by
fire Sunday morning. The plant was |
organized two years ago by W. \V.!
Barr, Jr., a former resident of Bamberg,
and was managed by Mr. Barr.
The loss is said to have been consid.
erable.
E. L. Price, Jr., has commenced q
the erection of a residence on his lot
in the northern section of town. For
the present he and his family are oc- a
cupying rooms in the old Johnson
hotel. The residence vacated by Mr.
Price is now occupied by H. G. De!k
* and family.
The forecasted snow for Christ- &
mas did not materialize, though the
weather looked snowy for a day or
two before Christmas. None of the
younger generation can recall ever C
having seen a snow on Christmas day d
though in recent years there have n
been snows during the fall months. I'
Chief of Police H. W. Moody has Jbeen
spending a portion of his time 11
at night watching Main street. A 1
few nights ago he was perched in a u
prominent place on the street armed v
' with a double barrel shotgun loaded a
.with buckshot. We are very frank to a
say that we would not have enjoyed S1
tampering with a Main street door ^
while the chief was on the watch. a

An emancipation celebration will

ACCIDENTAL KILLING.
, S(
Pour Year Old Colored Boy Shoots j.
Self With Fatal Result. m
'
Franklin Brown, the four year old
son of Daniel Brown, a well known
colored man who farms on the plan- B
tation of B. D. Carter near Bamberg,
was accidentally shot ^onday.
The boy died Monday night as the
result of the wound. si
It appears that the lad was trying (]
to take a shotgun from his father's a:
wagon, when the hammer was caught u:
in some way, causing the gun to be w
discharged. The load of shot took lj
effect in the boy's right leg, almost jt
tearing the limb from his body.
The little fellow died Monday ]
night. The case seems to have been u
purely accidental, and no blame has n
been attached to anyone for the trag- t<
edy. a

A DULL CHRISTMAS.
loncy Flowed Like Unto Thick Molasses
in Zero Weather.
From a financial point of view
Jhristmas in Bamberg was about the
ullest in a decade. If there was any
loney in the county it is still here,
t did not appear to be spent during
lie holidays in this city. The decline
l price of cotton from 43 cents to
3 1-2 cents played havoc with the
sua! holiday trade. Fortunately
ery few merchants stocked up on
nv great amount of holiday goods,
nd the few who did have such
tocks have a good start for next
hristmas. The people bought just ,
s sparingly as the spirit of the occaion
would permit. .
The nonaays were quietly spent Dy i,
lamberg folks. There was very lite
disorder or excessive drinking;
t fact, few persons were seen under j
le influence of intoxicants. The
looting of fireworks was probably |;
acause fireworks were not so scarce j ]
lis year as previously. ;
Many of the poor people of the ;
immunity were given presents of t
>od, clothing, toys and fruits by the i
mgregation of the Baptist church, j
ie Methodist Woman's missionary
>ciety, and perhaps other organiza- }
ons of the city. No special Christ- ]
as services were held in the city. i

ROBBERY IS ALLEGRO.
(\ Y. Hamlin Said to Have Been Held
up by Y'egroes Tuesday.
Tuesday morning early C. X. Hamlin,
a local insurance agent, was
brought to Bamberg by J. A. J. Rice,
bearing injuries which Mr. Hamlin
said were inflicted by two robbers a
short distance this side of Sato. Mr.
Hamlin appeared to have been dealt
a terrific blow on the head with some
blunt instrument, and his hand was
considerably bruised.
The story told to Mr. Rice by Mr.
Hamlin was about as follows: Ke
came to Denmark on the Seaboard
train early Tuesday morning from
Florida. It lacking several hours to
the time for the Augusta train to
Bamberg, he decided to walk home
and started off down the railroad
track. After he had passed Sato he
was accosted by two negro men, who
held him up, struck him several
blows and relieved him of his valuables.
Although he was left in a
dazed condition, he started again on
his way home, and when he got as
far as Mr. Rice's place his strength
gave out and he went to Mr. Rice's
house and called Mr. Rice out of bed.
He told Mr. Rice his story and asked
to be brought to Bamberg. Mr.
Rice brought him home in his car.
Mr. Hamlin stated that the highwaymen
robbed him of his suit case
containing clothing and other articles,
including his pistol, took his
overcoat from him, and about $130
in cash.
Mr. Hamlin has been away from
Bamberg for the past several weeks.
He was the local agent here of an
insurance company, and it is said that
his whereabouts were unknown to
his acquaintances. He stated that his
anxiety to get home as quickly as
possible prompted him to decide on
walking instead of waiting for the
Southern train some three or four
hours later.

SAM MORTON AGAIN.
____?
I Potato House Mail is Now Being Carried
to Maine from Ohio.
J. Sam Morton, wanted in Orange;
burg on a charge of breach of trust
, and conspiracy to defraud in connec.
tion with alleged misappropriation
, of funds of the potato propagating
, house in that city, and who figured
in connection with the Bamberg poi
tato house, is now on his way from
i Cincinnati to Skowhegan, Maine, on
a charge of selling mortgaged property
and also for "forging or uttering
checks," according to a letter
received by Sheriff Dukes, of Orangeburg,
from Sheriff John A. Mooers,
of Somerset county, Maine. It will
be recalled that Morton left Bamberg
with some thousands of dollars
of funds of the local potato house
company, and that payment of the
check was stopped before it was presented
to a New York bank for payment.
The letter follows:
"Dear .Mr. Sheriff: I thought you
would like to know that we are
bringing J. Sam .Morton from Cincinnati,
Ohio, on a warrant charging
selling mortgaged property and also
forging, or uttering checks on a bank
here (this he did in Indianapolis and
also in Ohio). He is on way here at
this time and will arrive December
24. (Extradition.)
"Our governor says he made a
mistake not letting you have him, so
if you want him after we get through
you know what to do. Grand jury
sits fourth Tuesday in January; could
not get him any sooner possibly, and
then only in case we fail of an indictment.
"I will gladly keep you informed
anyway and will wrrite you again not
later than December 28."
It frill be recalled that Sheriff ]
Dukes sent to Skowhegan for Morton
during the past summer, but extradition
was refused by the Maine
governor as the result of an alleged i
technical irregularity in the drawing i
of the papers. Mr. Dukes stated re: ]
cently that efforts would be made s
through legal channels to have Mor- ]
ton brought to Orangeburg as soon <
as practicable. Morton is alleged to
have made away with several thousand
dollars while connected with the (
Orangeburg concern. It is also said J
that Morton made away with a small 1
amount of money in connection with 1
the Bamberg concern, but great lqss i

Browning Refused Bail.
The order of Judge Maulding re- ]
fusing bail to James P. Browning has
been filed in the office of the clerk
of court. The Judge does not go
into the merits of the matter but ?
holds that under the law he has no <
jurisdiction to grant bail because <
the case is on appeal to the supreme
court. The state has appealed to s
the supreme court from the order (
granting Browning bail and this ap-11

BARNWELL. WOMAN KILLED. \
Mrs. W. O. Birt Killed When Cyclone- c
Destroys Home. ^
c
Barnwell, Dec. 22.?A cyclone that ?
struck the little town of Snelling, five _
miles west of Barnwell, this afternoon
at four o'clock completely destroyed
the residence of W. C. Birt,
killed his wife and seriously injured
his three children. A funeral party
from Barnwell, on its way to Seven ,
Pines church, near Snelling, was (
caught in the path of the storm and i
the tops of several automobiles in
the procession were torn off. An ov- ^
ercoat, fur and hat were blown off r
of one woman as she sat in her car. ^
Large pine trees were snapped off
as though they were pipestems. Mem- <
bers of the funeral party say the roar J
of the approaching cyclone could be
heard for some time before they felt
the full force of the wind, and that
thp noisfi was like that of a heavy
freight train in rapid motion. It
will probably be a -day or two before
the full amount of damage is known.

vith Champ Clark, himself a veter- 1
in, who retires March 4, leading the ]

narks.
Walking about the corriders of the I

He served eight years as speaker and

"Gladstone served fifty-three years ,

matter for the grand jury and while
this duty is not obligatory on his
part the grand jury desires that he
see that evidence he obtained and
presented to the governor, but the
grand jury should make it a part of
the duty of the county treasurer to
report directly to the governor the
date upon which the books of the
county were completed for the collec
tion of taxes.
Other Affairs in County.
"The grand jury takes this opportunity
of directing the attention of
the entire people of the county to
the fact that the affairs of the county
are not being conducted in the manner
required by law. We have actual
evidence of numerous outstanding
executions in the hands of the
sheriff and constables where persons
against whom such executions are
issued have the actual tax receipts.
We recommend that on the first meeting
of the new county board in January
that the board go into this matter
thoroughly with the proper officers
and that some arrangement be made
to find out these persons and the
amount of said receipts. We further
ask that the county board employ
either the county attorney or other
competent counsel to collect the old
checks in the hands of the treasurer.
The county board should realize that
the affairs of the county, to a large
extent, are in their hands in regards
to all matters mentioned herein and

"We find that 1918 and 1919 tax
executions have not been presented
to the sheriff for collection. This
amounts to $22,133.14. If they are
not immediately presented we recommend
that steps be taken by the
governor, to remove from office any officer
failing to perform his duty,
"A resolution was passed by the
members of* the grand jury requesting
the members of the county delegation
to refuse to recommend to the
governor the newly elected auditor,T.
Hagood Gooding, for the term of office,
commencing July 1, 1921.
"A resolution was also passed revesting
the county delegation to pass
an act at the next session of the Iegislature
allowing no penalty to be imposed
on the taxpayers of Hampton
county until March 1, 1921, in view
of the fact that the tax books were
not opened in this county until December
