If your name has been dropped from the live list of readers, it is because you would not renew so that we were entitled to send it to you under the law. The postoffice regulations provide that it is not lawful for us to send you the paper longer than for a certain time after vour money runs out. How can we help ourselves in the face of this provision. Remember this and remember that no matter how much we want you back in the list of readers, we cannot put you there unless you are willing1 to pay for the paper. If you stand off on account of ill will and madness, just because your name was dropped you are doing: us an injustice. The Herald wants to be law abiding*. It does not want tlie name of sending itself each week to a lot of dead beats who would not think enough of the paper to come in and reorder it. This is the law that we are following and not some distracted notion of being: afraid to trust people. Every man who reads the Herald has a special place in the hearts of the editor of this paper and of every man on the force. Willing to trust them, yes, each and every one; but this does not ?ret us over the postoffice regulations which require us to pay a higher rate of postage when we mail the paper to a man who has not paid for the paper and failed to renew. We want each and every man, woman and child in Horry County to read this paper every week. We know that it will pay them to do so. We are in position to give them something that they cannot pet otherwise. They need it. We are willing and more than willing to let them have it, hut they must remember that the Herald wants to treat everybody right, and especially the laws and regulations of Uncle Sam. Think this thing over today and come right back and lets eet together. We are friends and friends of the' best kind. o Mrs. Florence H^dricV- <-1 ]-<->r truest*. Mr. and Mrs. J. T? "Rilev, Mrs. I.

C.?The arrest this morning of Arch Kay, charged with * murder, may solve the mystery which ( has long baffled the efforts of the authorities in the cases of the deaths , of P. 'M. Hutto and of J. M. Burnett. 1 Both were aged storekeepers who ' were murdered in their stores and ^ robbed. Hutto was killed some twelve years ago, while Burnett was murdered in 1021. Arch Kay is 1 charged with both killings. Kay's arrest came after city and county officers had overheard him tel 1 iup: Sligh Milliard of killing the | two men. Kay was trying1 to persuade Milliard to accompany him ^ on a like expedition, and had made the statement that he had killed the two men several times before. Milliard informed his brother, Baz Milliard, a member of the Anderson police department, and last night Kay visited Milliard again. Sheriff Marrett and Chief of Police Driskoll, Deputy ; W. A. Clamp and Policeman Baz Milliard were secreted in the house when the man came to talk with Sligh lii 1 - ; liard, i r.d were ool no re than three < feet from the two men when the talk- , ing took place. < According to the officers' statement this morning, Kay was trying again to persuade Hi 1 liard to to go with him and rob somebody, and told Hilliard he wanted him merely to stand out side and watch for him. "Haven't Got the Nerve." "You haven't got the nerve to go through with it," Hilliard is quoted by officers as saying, and with an oath Kay then said that he had already killed two men, naming P. M. Hutto and J. M. Burnett. According to the officers, he told the amount of money he had secured from each one of the two victims. Arrested this morning. Kay denies part of his conversation last night, and declares that when he told Mil Hard of killing: the men, that he was just laughing and joking-. The circumstances surrounding the two murders were strikingly similar, and have heen responsible for the conclusion that the slayer of Burnett was, | the same who slew David Hutto, although the crimes were perpetrated more than nine years apart. The body of Mr. Hutto was found December 29, 1911, in his small store several days after he had been killed. His store an pockets had been riffled of what moneys he possessed at the time of the crime. The left side of the man's- head was crushed in, indicating lhnt a heavy instrument had been employed, and that ho had been struck a terrific b'ow by his adversary. (iO-Year-Old M<in Slain Matthew B. Burnett, some fiO years of age. met death on the night of December 14, 1920, when his skull was crushed and his head otherwise mangled by means of a heavy watm key, the jagged teeth of which furnished a formidable weapon. The discovery of the crime was not made until several hours after its perpetration. For the past few years the murder has baffled local authorities and although they have made efforts to apprehend the criminal and numbers of suspects have been arrested, the i 'tracks of the criminal appeared to* irertising U >1J i jl aiu CUVCI 5 i meant County is a large c hand the farmers they don't know yo they know you ha^ time to advertise an They are going to It advertise THE HORRY HERALD, 0 lave been covered well.

Kay declared according to the j officers that he was sent to the store < m Qppure change for a $20 bill by a 1 voman for whom he had been sawing i vood. By this means he said lie found i hat Burnett had a "big roll." Kay 1 vas alleged to have stated that he reurned about 11 o'clock that night and 1 >retended to want to make a pur- i base. He said that he struck the man 1 vith a baseball bat, according to the >fficers. ] l FARM GOSSIP A scandal in South Carolina agriculture: Corn fields without intercropped legumes. 1 "The best stock on the farm isn't ] n the barn," says an Ohio farm philosopher.

He also said that Grainger had known the land was subject to dower and did not think it worth anything and he had bought Grainger's right for a small Rum. Witness was there when the [lower was laid off. He bought the land under the deed for the dower. He got possession from Nancy Floyd and her son and he had not claimed the land before that. He had bid in the land for taxes. The dower was laid off alter that. Witness bid it off once at the tax sale for Nancy Floyd, then next time it went to Charles Grainger. Witness was asked if he remembered hearing John T. Floyd say at the first trial that lie, John T. Floyd, did not know anything about the Chas. Grainger deed until he got the information from hi-- attorneys in this case. He paid that he would not have given the $100.00 for the place at that time but witness only did it to enable Floyd to buy the other place in Floyd's township. In the course of his testi-i mony another deed was introduced to show how defendant now holds two hundred acres of other land. A. L. Lewis testified he is a son of Sheriff Dan C. Lewis. Sheriff Lewis lived in the country at the time he was elected as sheriff. Witness was with his father when Chas. Grainger went there after a paper. Witness did ,rioi know what kind of a paper but .Grainger got one there at that time. I. K. Blanton testified. He lives on the adjoining place to Jno. T. Floyd. He had heard Floyd say many times that he did not want to work on tl o pla^e down at Gallivants Ferry as he might lose it. He did not want to build up a place for Hill Page at his mother's death. He had said that his reason for buying a place in Floyd's township was to have a place at his mother's death. Wm. Page recalled said that he h;id been present at two sales of the Floyd land and seemed to remember as many as three. Col. J. M. Johnson was recalled and asked as to the location of certain lands to show that the dower land was not included in that. He pointed out the location of different tracts on a map made by him. John T. Floyd was recalled in reply. He said that he had never had any Horry I Dmpletely, and . less for the adv d shape financially, i n . .1 lci suape. out tne id they aren't going to sell them. lty know that you a so why not get you Herald . ? knowledge of the Chas. Grainger deed until informed of it by his attorneys. He denied that he had ever told Blanton that he did not claim the fee in S this land. He denied he had anything to do with the sale of the dower land to Mr. Page. p The arguments are being made as The Herald goes to press this week. c< a o v SUMMONS FOR REFIEF ? . k (Complaint Served.)
