stranger took exception to it when he
stumbled back against Russ.

it is said that Russ came out

be afraid of the big fellow although
he had suffered a broken wrist some
time ago while cranking a Ford.

FOR NOT DIPPING CATTLE
On February 14th, 1923, in Magistrate
W. H. Chestnut's court, in Con
}\\%y, s. c;., JNoan &. narawicK was
tried before a jury and found guilty
for not dipping his cattle after being
notified to do so by an authorized
State livestock inspector.
Tt is only through carelessness and
indifference to the work of tick eradication
in different parts of this county
that farmers still have to dip and
spray their cattle. If they will do the
work thoroughly every two weeks for
one season everywhere the ticks are,
we will clean up the cattle tick and
we will be with you until the last cattle
tick has gone in this county.

W.L. BRYAN
TAKEN ILL
Clerk of the Court, W. L. Bryan,
was taken sick while at his work in
the office here last Monday.
He was taken home by a friend who
happened to be about the court house
at the time and was reported as still
sick yesterday.
It was several yeaVs ago that MrBryan
had a similar attack from
which he recovered after spending:
some time in a hospital in Columbia.
His present lilness is thought to be
similar to the illness that he suffered
at that time.
Many expressions of concern and
sympathy were expressed for him. He
had been working very hard for the
past several weeks owing to the unusual
increase of recording and indexing
at this time of the year, and the
annroach of tht? t.pvms nf mnrt.
He is one of the best court clerks
in the State of South Carolina, having
installed systems here that were
far ahead of any used here before.
SEND TRAMP"
ON A HIKE
J. A. Holt, of the night police
force, caught a negro tramp on the
streets at a late hour last Sunday
night and made him leave.
The negro was ragged and dirty,
wearing an old rain coat that was full
of holes, and shoes that were mere
leather rags.
The negro would not tell his name,
but he said he had come from Myrtle
Beach. He could not say where he
was stopping or intended to stop for
the night. He could not give any
satisfactory account of himself. The
policeman gave him five minutes to
find a place to stay or get out of
town. The negro began to take a
side track for the corner at the Conway
Trading Company. As he got
further away from the policeman, he
went faster and still faster, and when
last seen was running full tilt over
the Kingston Lake bridge.
