Her death was heartrending in that it was so unexpected. She played with the other chidren through out the day and seemed cheerful. As the darkness of night hovered around death began to hover over little Vera Ellen, and in less than live hours, her little form was cold in death, and her spirit with God who gave it. She was four years, six months and eleven days old. On the following day her body was laid to rest in the Dorman Graveyard in the presence of many sorrowing friends. The bereaved family have the heart felt sympathy of the community. BIRD INSPECTOR HERE. Once Lived in Horrv County,?Sees Great Improvement, More Than he Dreamed. James Henry Rice, Esq., arrived ir Conway last Tuesday. He carries a hndfrp show ilia* his nosition with the v .. - "0 ' f ^ Federal Government, which is that of United States Inspector of Birds, lie is remembered by many friends here, made while he lived here for some time several years ago. Mr. Rice expressed himself as astonished at the wonderful improvements at Conway and in Horry County in recent years. He stated that he had traveled through the South, and he knew ot no county that had made greater improvements, than Horry, nor any town more progressive than Conway. This is saying a great deal for Conway and Horry County, and it comes from a man who knows what he is talking about. The man who has traveled and seen is in position to give an opinion on this subject that can be relied upon.
