GOOD TIME IS
MADE ON MONDAY
Court Disposes of All Cases
Set on Roster for
Day
MUGGINS -"PRICE CASE
Monday Crowd Was Not as
Larg'e as Usual at
Spring Term
The court of common picas convenccl
on Monday morning with Hon.
T. S. Sense presiding.
The first case tried was Worth
Company against W. J. Smith. The
defendant was not present in court,
hut a jury was empaneled and the
plaintiIT went ahead to prove its 'v^p.
A verdict was directed for the plaintin*
after the court heard the evidence.
The case of Muggins against Price
was continued on account of illness
in the families of the contending
parties.
An order was taken out in the case
of C. Stanley B^rnhill against Kmnvi
C. Barnhill, as the matter in dispute
had been settled by a sale of the
land.
Two cases brought by J. Wheeler
Vaught against Conway Live Stock
Company and A. C. Thompson were
withdrawn from the dockets by the
consent of the attorneys engaged.
The case of J. P. Stanley against
M. B. Thompson for slander and libel
was not tried, but it had been placed
on the list for trial for the purpose
of .arguing a demurrer.
H. D. Elliott against Mullins Lumber
Company was settled and stricken
from the roster.
I The case of Olia Porter against
z"1 ^ i ? 11 - *
ut-wi u. nuiiuiciy was on me rosier
for the purpose of taking an order
only.
The ease of Sandy Strand against
W. A. Causey was continued by con1
sent of both sides in the controversy.
The most interesting matter disposed
of on Monday was a point of
law regarding the case of John A.
Muggins against Georgia Page Price.
After the attorneys had agreed to
continue the case owing to the illness
of the parties on both sides, it was
decided to submit to the court the
question raised by the third defense
of the answer which was to the effect
that the plaintiff had already had two
actions for recovery of the same piece
of land. This was taken up without
a jury and argued by the attorneys
in the cause after submitting in evidence
the records of the court showing
three summons and complaints in
which these same parties had appeared
as plaintiff and defendant.
After hearing the arguments the
court decided that the plaintiff, John
A. Muggins could not maintain this
third action and the complaint was
dismissed.
This wound up all that was done
on Monday except the two cases
against the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad
Company, which arc reported in
a separate article in this issue of the
Herald.
The crowd coming to town for court
on Monday was not as large as is
usually the case when the civil term
is on. Farmers in most sections of
Horry were held Ivick l>y had weather
from getting the usual early start in
their farm' work and they are at this
time more than usuall\ husy in their
, work, and this is probably the reason
why no more of them were here at
the opening of court.
Tuesday's Proceedings
On Tuesday morning the case of
Boyd Ford against R. F. Williams
was called and defendant at once
moved to continue the case, on the
ground that at a former term of the
court both sides agreed to submit the
case to arbitration and both sides
went under bond for that purpose and
I the arbitrators took testimony, but
had not yet rendered their decision.
? This motion to continue was granted.
Campbell & Re id vs. A. P. Johnson
1 & Son was continued, on the ground

RAILROAD WINS
A DAMAGE CASE
'; !
S. G. And S. M. Gasque Lose
in The Law
Suits
MOTION TofF NONSUIT
Case Grew Out of Accident on
Section of Line to
Aynor
The case of S. G. Gasque, against
the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad
Company, was tried last Monday.
This was a companion case of S. M.
Gasque against the same company
arising out of the same state; of facts.
They were tried together. The facts
were published at the time concerning
the accident on the short line from
v,on way to Aynor.
I he jury to try this case was as
follows:
O. C. Cox
S. H. Brown
W. B. Shelley
B. Frank Graham
W. B. C tared y
W. J. Cox, Sr.
R. L. Bell
\V. H. Bellamy
H. M. Tyler
Hezekiah Hinson
VV. G. Richardson
W. A. Moore
S. D. Gasque was sworn in his own
behalf and told how he was injured
in his feet and legs and in his hand,
and said he had beon ,permanently injured
j that he was a farmer and he
had found it difficult to follow his
calling1. He said that a part of the
handcar gave way while running1
along the track, oausim? it to jump
the rails and injure the plaintiff.
Witness had bee i working as a section
hand two years. The car was in
charge of Section Master S. P. Collins.
When witness got hurt they
took him away from the wreck and
he did not see the car after the accident;
the car was running about 15
miles an hour and witness did not
know how far car went after breaking.
Witness said S. M. Gasque was
working in same group of hands and
was also hurt, getting one of his feet
mashed; tore oil' a part of his boot.
Dr. J. S. Dusenburv was sent for and
he dressed their wounds and ho and
S. M. Gasque were taken home by
Empie Gasque. Witness had boon
workinp: at first for 00 cents per day,
then raised to $1 per day.
S. M. Gasque testified. He said
that ho was employed by the Atlantic
Coast Line in 1915 under S. P. Collins
from Conway to Aynor. Had
boon at work and going in, one
wheel broke on the handcar and witness
was thrown off and car ran over
him and knocked the breath out of
him. The car ran across Iris foot,
tearing his boot, lie said his foot
was mashed so that ho has pains yet
in his foot and leg. Did not walk
for a month; was out two months.
He went back to work for the railroad,
but is farming: now. The car
was running from 12 t<? 20 miles per
hour. S. P. Collins had the car in
charge to keep it in repair. Could
not tell how much his damage is, but
at the least, $l,">00, the amount sued
for.
The plaintifT swore a number of
other witnesses, tending to show some
defect in the handcar or the wheel of
the handcar which broke.
At the close of this testimony for
the plaintiffs tho defendants moved
for a nonsuit and after arguments of
the attorneys' on tho opposing sides
this motion was granted and the jury
did not pass upon the case. Roth
cases turned out as a victory for the
railroad company.

WOMION MOTORISTS
Women motorists are as good drivers
as men, or better. This is the
testimony 01 a juuge 01 tno nrooKlyn,
N. Y., traffic court. Ho says
that of all the thousands of traffic
violators hailed into court, only about
1 per cent are women.
In former days, when engine trouble
and tire trouble were inevitable
and of frequent occurrence, and garages
and gas stations were far apart,
driving a car was perhaps less a woman's
job than a man's. The perfected
mechanism of the motor car of
today changes that. There is no reason
why any woman of fair brains
and poise should not drive an automobile
just as easily as she operates
a perambulator, and many do.
The next time father starts with,
"anything but a woman driving!"
Mother should quote the figures offered
by the Brooklyn judge and ask
father whether it is his men friends
or his women friends that get into
smash-ups oftener, or appear more
frequently in the traffic court, or are
warned for speeding.?Geneva Daily
times (Kep.)

FIGHT LONG AGO
ON KING ALCOHOL
I Now London, Conn.?Kin# Alcohol
was vigorously assaulted 80 years
ago in this seaport even with more
vigor than since the coming in of the
Volsteadian era. His enemies in
1842 fought the banner of the
Washington Total Abstainers society
which was kopt aloft for many years.
But the time came when the banner
was trailed in the dust and indifference
killed off the attacks.
In those days there were many socalled
temperance societies ranging
from the Washingtonians who practiced
total abstinence to the Kecivibites
who were compromising in nature,
popular with the middle of the road
"folks who permitted the use, judiciously
of a little beer, cider, wine
and other light drinks. Rum, gin
and whiskey were barred, while
brandy was only for use at the sick
bed.
In IS in with a population of f>.000
the YVashinsrtonians had a membership
of 2,000. 13v the crusade the I
number of open drinking nl;?ces was
reduced from 03 to 31. The small
children were enrolled in the "Cold
water army" and the parades were of
great interest. There were temperance
revivals in places of worship
and public speakers from abroad kept
up 4 he enthusiasm.
The Washingtonians believed in
moral suasion.
Two newspapers published in those
days and found recently told graphically
of the crusades. One of these
said that Elder Swan was mighty for
reform and had said: "May the winds
of the heaven never fill the sails of
any ship bearing rum to New London."
Josiah R. Steward, who was
known among his townpeople as The
Spud, wanted all the names of grog
dealers printed and when the two
newspapers would not do this he issued
a four sheet paper from time to
time under the name of Our Organ
and The Spud, and he had to go to
Norwich to tret it printed.
The records show th.ut while the
fight against King Alcohol waged
merrily in 1842 and 1843 with parados.
some of which were a mile long
with military escorts, the Washingtonians
as the remnant of the. liouor
fighting host expired in 1845.
