We, the undersigned Board of Honor of Confederate Veterans of Horry County, do take particular pleasure in denouncing the utterly false rumors which have been circulated during the recent Campaign against the Probate Judge of Horry County regarding the handling of the Pension runds. He is not even a member of the Pension Board, but is required by law to act as Clerk for the Hoard, to do as directed by the Board, and to keep a correct record of a'l matters pertaining to the Pension fund, and disburse the funds to the different Classes as directed by the Board, and all this we are confident h} nas done. But any rumor intimating that he has mis-applied a single penny of '?he Pension Fund, we denpunco j.s basely false, and we desire to enter our protest publicly against any such rottenness In politics as has been used in the recent campaign against him.
