Moselev, our beloved mother who departed tins life June 20, at 3:20 P. M. N. F. NIXON, Wampee, S. C., July 4, 1923. RAM) IN SOCASTEE D. Frank Bellamy and V. D. Johnson of the rural police, and Jas. A. Lewis, sheriff of this county made a raid in Socastee last Tuesday at the home occupied by Grovery McCormick. They had a search warrant for the premises and took a ten gallon whiskey still. Full details of this raid will appear in the next issue of The Herald. ? o TOM PRINCE CAUGHT On Sunday, July Mh, I). r rank Hellamy raided Tom Prince of W am pee, and found two gallons of liquor in a .hog pen, covered with hog hod. Fresh tracks led from this bed to his house, and it looked like he had been there several times just before that. There was a place beside the two jugs where it looked like another jug had just been removed. There were two places in less than 400 yards of the house where whiskey had been run. ATTORNEY GENERAL Samuel M. Wolfe, Attorney General of South Carolina, spent several days in Conway last week attending to business in connection with the suit on the bond of W. L. Bellamy, late county treasurer of Horry County. This case did not come up for trial in the court last week but will be brought up later. The complaint demands judgment for a large sum al'^ged as a shortage in the accounts of the treasurer while W. I* Bellamy was filling that office for several years. TAKES MANY MARKS J. H. Marsh of the Farm Implement Company received a post card last week from O. G. Schmidt, a travellingrepresentative of the Atlantic Paint & Varnish Company, of Wilmington, N. C. Schmidt is now visiting relatives in Germany where he lived many years ago. The interesting fact in connection with this post card is that it took the sum of one hundred and eighty marks to bring the card to Mr. Marsh. This indicates the low value of the mftrk the German unit of money. o A DISTINGUISHED SPEAKER AND A LIVE SUBJECT On Sunday, July 22nd, the Rev. E. M.

The marshal's suspicion was aroused last Saturday night, when, as he was hiding under a tr?e, he saw this negro slipping about. When he advanced on the negro, the negro fled. Last Tuesday night, as Mr. Holt was going by the house of Wash Johnson, in the colored residence section of the town, he heard talking round Wash's house. Behind the house he found George Arline and a negro woman. George again tried to run, but was caught. His tracks measure the same ast the tracks found at the various houses wjiere the negro has been operating, | and Mrs. Bacot says that he iooks like the negro who tried to enter her home. She told him, "you are the man who tried to enter my house, why not admit it?" The negro would not admit it. There are several others who will identify him and he will no .doubt be proved as the one who has been making trouble. of the material they could find and filled most of the orders that were on f\ fl O f U A LI /\IM? lrl ir. ,? ...x? ^ .1 f P I- ? ? miuiii <?.-> nil" 1 K'UIIU l> I 11 I t >1 III l_'U .
