J. E. Nicholas was perhaps the worst sufferer. He ate some of the meat and was taken violently sick in the night. It was the night of Wednesday. December 21st. A physician was called to attend him and it took all that the physician could do to hold Mr. Nicholas down on the bed. With terrible cramps I 1: : L:_ I: i u: _ aim rMiwwuiiK puiiiK in iiik iiiims, in."? muscles tried to draw him into clo.?e knots. He was a very sick man for about three days hut thanks to his ph ysieian he was pulled through and was able to he out again and at his work bv Saturday evening. ' W. H. M oore, one t)f the leading carpenters and cabinet makers of Conway, also partook of the meat which was sent in all these ca^e*. from some of the neighbors, and while he became very sick and, h.id to take medicine he did not get as bad off as did Mr. Nicholas. Another case was that of Mr. D. NT. Forehand. He liked the meat very much and ate a quantity finding it difficult to ouit on it. as he said afterwards. I*y the time he got un the road on his run on tho AtVxntic Coast Lino mail coMch. ho was about as sick as he over has been in his life. He had to have a doctor, and he rniirht have died if he had not succeeded ?n getting one in quick time. This so called cheese made from hog heads is a t.nsty dish. There is no meat under the sun any better unless it be the rifeht kind of country made sausage. Some of the markets? produce a good sausaire, but it i.s nothing to compare to the iuicv, right mixture of lean and fat stuffed in the country like the Horry women know how to do, and flavored with just theright touch of garden sage, and red pepner. If yo.u have ever had the good fortune to get a meal of such as that, why of course you already know what country sausaee is likp. But the cheese is also mighty good and it is hard to keep from eating it. In some way it appears that this cheese has a tendency to cre.ote germs of some kind that cause sickness. Ca-e after case occurs in this part of the hogshead cheese, however and no matlike those of last week almost every year in Conway. Country sausage will not do this and that is another good part about it. Look out for the* hoghead cheese, however, and no matter how much you want it, just let it alone, for it may result in your sudden death. o. Circuit Judge James E.
