COL. FOLK WINS SUIT.
i Supreme Court Gives Decision Involving
Johnson Hotel Property.
The state supreme court rendered a
j decision Monday, which, stripped of
i its legal verbiage, means that Col.
! John F. Folk, of this city, obtains pos_
! session of the Johnson Hotel properj
ty, on the corner of Main street and
; Railroad avenue. Bamberg.
The title of the case is Reta Baring
I Hunt, administratrix, versus Florence
| G. Hunt, J. A. Guerin, executor, and
j John F. Folk. Some months ago Col.
| Folk purchased from Reta Baring
Hunt, guardian of Florence G. Hunt,
the Johnson hotel property in this
city for $20,000. Afterward the
^ - A J. - _A - J A -U ?
transaction was comesieu un me
ground that the price was inadequate.
A hearing was held by the
master of Bamberg county, who decided
in Col. Folk's favor; appeal was
made to the circuit court, and Judge
H. F. Rice sustained the finding of
the master. The case was then appealed
to the supreme court by the
Hunts, and the decision of the supreme
court sustained the circuit
court.
This means that the master is nowdirected
to grant a title to the property
to Col. Folk. Col. Folk purchased
the property for the purpose of
erecting thereon a hotel. Considerable
of the material was purchased
last year, and wrork would have proceeded
but for the contesting of the
transaction in the courts. The material
is now on hand, and it is understood
that as soon as the title is
granted, which is now- merely a formality,
work will be resumed on the
improvement of the property, as previously
outlined in The Herald.

MRS. J. F. KEARSE, JR.
Beloved Colston Woman Died Monday
Afternoon.
Colston. April 12.?This communi
ty was very much saddened and grieved
when the angel of death came in
our midst and took from us a beloved
friend -and neighbor, Mrs. J. F.
Kearse, Jr. She had been in ill
health for some time, but had seemed
to improve until two weeks ago when
she was confined to her bed. For
those two weeks kind words and, loving
hearts never ceased their untiring
efforts to prolong the life of one so
dear. The all-wise God saw and understood
the motive, but He had work
for his own in a field of larger harvest,
and on Monday afternoon at one
o'clock came to call her home.
Hers was a life of sixty-six years,
full of love and unselfishness for her
own and others. She was, before
her marriage. Miss Olivia Darlington,
of Dunbarton, and is survived by onel
sister, Mrs. Sallie Brabham, of Olar;
besides leaving a devoted husband,
four children survive her: Mrs. Natalie
Ehrhardt, of Ehrhardt; Mrs. Annie
Mae McMillan, Mrs. Will McMillan,'
and Dawrson Kearse, of this community,
and many other relatives and
friends. One son, Reuben, was kill-1
ed while in action with the A. E. F. |
in France in October, 1918.
The last tribute of love and respect
was paid to her by many relatives and
friends Tuesday afternoon at three
o'clock in the Kearse cemetery, where
the body was laid to rest beside that:
of her infant son who died many!
years ago.
The bereaved family has the love
and sympathy of their many relatives
and friends throughout the community
in their sad loss of one so dear
to them.
