jrive him a call.
The sale now going on at the store
^f S. T. Sessions was very extensively
idvertised last week and the rush at
t-ho store has been great from the ]

aounciug this sale were scattered in .
some places from house to house,

MARRIAGE OP MISS BESSIE BUR- 1
ROUGHS TC MR E.J. SHERWOOD
Conway Methodist Church Decorated
for the Occasion and
Crowded With a Larjr* Audience
to Witness the Beautiful Ceremony.
At Conway Methodist church, at I
the hour of 3 o'clock last Tuesday
afternoon, Miss Bessie Burroughs <
was married to Mr. Edwin J. Shcr- J
wood iu the presence of one of tho I
largest audiences this church has !
ever had. The church could not '
hold all those who wished to see. J
Decorators had been at work during
Monday with the prettiest
(lowers and most ingenious designs,
making tho church far exceed iu j
beauty the flower gardens of May.
There were three or more floral
arches, under one of which the
bridal party stood while the cere- !
mony was being performed. There
was just euough light to enhance
the beauty of the scene and lend it 1
enchantment. I
As the wedding inarch was skillfully
played by Mrs. Hal L. Buck,
Miss Jessamine Burroughs, the little
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. A. '
Burroughs entered the aisle carrying
llowers and ttiocusion on which
the contracting parties were later
to kneel. She wore a beautiful dress
of pink silk.
Then while Messrs Charles R. (
Scarborough and D. T. Riley of Conway
marched down ono of the aisles,
Messrs. L. D. McGrath of New York
and J. D. Matmiug of Marion march- (
eddown the other, followed by Miss ;
Mary Atwater of Hendersonvdle, N. !
C., the maid of honor. Miss At- j
water was gowned in light blue silk (
mull and carried the large bouquet
of brides' roses and maiden hair
ferns. The bride, wearing a most i
becoming travelling suit of dark .
blue broadcloth and loaning on the i
arm of her brother, Mr. P. A. Bur- I
roughs, marched up the left aisle, 1
while the groom with Mr. A. W.
Barrett marched up the i ight, The <
bride and groom took their places in <
front of the altar, the bride given in 1
marriage by her brother, Mr. P. A. '
Burroughs '
The large audience held its breath :
it seemed, so quiet was the scene, i
Standing in front of the chancel was 1
tho Rev. W. L. Wait of the Methodist
church, and while music soft and
low floated from the piano, ho performed
the ceremony in his quiet 1
and impressive style which made (
them man and wife. The bride and '
groom knelt befoie him and with 5
his hands upon their heads he blessed
them. The party then marched (
out in the usual manner. In the (
street near the door of the church, J
an automobile was waiting to tako '
Mr. and Mrs. Sherwood to the de- s
pot. They left on the afternoon !
train on a wedding tour. 1
Many friends followed them lo !
the depot to see them oft.
Mrs. Sherwood is a talented young
Jaughter of Mrs. Addie Burroughs.
?.1 J - J i i - -1
/itiueu u> ner oeauiy is a charm of
manner and character which lias <
not failed to give her high position '
in Conway society. She is popular
and highly deserves to be. Mr. Sherwood
came to Conway several years
ago and occupied a position in the
low oftieo of Hon, Robt. 13. Scarborough
until later ho purchased a
controlling interest in Horry Publishing
Company and since that
time has very ably edited The Field.
He has made many friends since
making Conway his home.

. Counoil is having a fire well sunk
on ^ifth avenue, near the flowing
well of the Commercial Hotel. This
one is by way of an experiment and
if it proves satisfactory and economical
others will be put down in
other portions of the city. In the
absence of water works this is a
step in the right direction as these
wells will at least atTord some protection
against fire, and it is certain
they are an improvent over present
conditions.

IDAY NOVEMBER :
NEGRO DREW KNIFE.
[NEGRO HAS ROW WITH BOSS AT
SIZER'S MILL ON FRIDAY.
Tlie Nejrro Was the Worst Hurt
and Had to Run In the Wind L'p.
It Was Thouflit He Had Made
Good His Escape, hut He Was
Arrested Here Monday and l.odffcd
in Jail.
Lush Demoro, a negro workman
at the mill of John H. Sizer Lumber
Company fell out with the boss,
Mr. Robt Hilton, last Friday and
[Irew an uglv looking knife, which it
seems ho would have used had it not
been for the prompt use of a /vooden
scatliug which Hilton picked up
and used to good etTect on the nc?ro.
The negro ran from tho mill and
it was thought ho had run to North
Carolina before the warrant could
be obtained from Magistrate Grain
n t, tii i
u r luiuurw, wno is an employee
of the company, came down
to Conway on Monday and saw the
negro on the streets. lie at once
swore out a warrant from Magistrate
Jenrctto and the negro was
lodged in jail the same day pending
a hearing.
The uegrocamehere from Orangeburg
and but little is known about
his antecedents. On Friday evening
he wanted 1,1 i 1 ton to give him
an order for his pay. The boss was
not ready to do so. This started
the trouble with the resu'.t that the
negro had to run.
Council and the Hoard of Health
cannot pay too much attention just
now to cleaning up the town, draining
out old ditches and attending to
the thousand other things needing
doing for the health of tho town.
Some good work has recently been
accomplished. All the work of cleaning
up should be done during the
cool season.
Two young men of Marion county
struck Conway last week desiring a
job at some of the lumber mills and
a place to board Mr G II Dusenbury
pointed them to a miil where
they got positions, and agreed also
to furnish them board They worked
at the mill until Friday evening,

THE TEACHERS ASSOCIATION
AN ELOBORATC PROGRAM HAS
BCEN ARRANGED POR THE
OCCASION.
Some of tlic Prominent Educators
of the County Will be Present
and Will Address ttie Teachers.
Occasion Will be Public ami all
arc In vlted to be Present.
Quito an elaborate program has
been arranged for the next tcachors'
meeting, which will convene in the
Burroughs School Auditorium.Saturday
morning, Dec. 8th, at eleven
o'clock. The program committee
has decided to make this meeting a
public one, and has invited speakers
for the occasion. They are Supt. K.
V. Best, Supt.-elect VV. A. Prince,
and Col. D. A. Spivoy. All of these
-v iii IUIIU.-U are popular educators and
havo long been in the vanguard of
all educational movements in this
county.
The Association and friends of
education in Horry should feoljustly
proud of securing such a trio'to address
them, and should avail themselves
of tho opportunity of being
present.
Retiring Supt. Rest, who has been
a life long friend of education, in
Horry, ami who has both faithfully
and skillfully performed the duties of
his office for four years, will give the
Association an account of his stewardship
during those years. Ho will
furnish some very interesting statistics
on education in this county, and
will conclude by introducing his
successor to the teachers of Horry.
Supi.-elect Prince will then make
his initial official address to the
Association, giving some timely advice
and encouragement.
Hon. 1) A, Spivey will next address
the Association on 44 The Progress
of Teaching in Horry. As every
one knows, Col. Spivey is a versatile
and elaborate speaker, and will t/ivo.
tho teachers a rare treat on this
auspicious occasion. Having once
served as teacher himself, and since
then he has boen directly or indirectly
associated with educational
work, besides being prominent in
educational circles in the State, ho is
peculiarly litted to give the Association
an interesting address on this
subject.

"Wild Rumors" Denied.
Kditor Horry Herald: Please allow
me space in your paper to say a
few words about the 44wild rumors"
that appeared in the last issue of the
Herald staling that rumor has it
that Thomas Johnson and John
Strickland, in the Pleasant Meadow
section, had gotten Into a cutting
all ray about Charlotte Simmons. As
to the cutting I am glad io tell the
readers of the Herald that it is a
mistake. There is only one John
Strickland in the Pleasant Meadow,
or rather Zoun, section. John
Strickland is working for tho Crow
Saw Mill Co in less than one-half
mile of mo I see him every day or
two and I know that if there had
been anything It hat serious 1
would have heard something about it.
As for Tom Johnson, Commander's
brother, if he has been in this section
tor sometime I have not heard
of it.
Mr. Editor, I have written these
lines because I do not think that
John Strickland or any ono else
should remain under such an accusation
as that unless they were
guilty. Sub.
