Snelling received his ele mentary education in the common schools, completing his studies in the Seven Pines Academy, where he was graduated in 1880. He then accepted a position with Ca.pt. E. T. Moore and later was his bookkeeper. This posi tion he held until Capt. Moore closed out his business in Barnwell County. He then engaged in farming, which occupied his attention until 1898, when Mr. Snelling entered politics and was elected to the office of Judge of Probate for Barnwell County, in which capacity he is still serving. He prepared -himself ft* "this position by studying law. under the tutor-ship of Judge Robert Aldrich and Judge Chat. Carroll Simms, both of whom--were among the leading lawyers of"”'the State. His long retention in this Responsible position is a marked tes timonial to his efficiency and faith fulness to the duties of the office.
