rAGB pout. THE BARNWELL PEOPLE-SENTINEL, BARNWELL, SOUTH CAROLINA BARNWELL 50 YEARS AGO. Interesting Item* Gleaned From the Files of The Barnwell People. SEPTEMBER 21, 18&. Righteously Lynched.—On the night of the 13th inst. Nathan Bonnet, colored, was lynched at Williston by a party of masked men for an at tempted outrage on the 6th inst. on a young lady. “Our mothers, wives, daughters and sisters shall be pro tected.” Marriage*.—On the 13th instant, at the Church of the Holy Apostles by Rev. E. C. Edgerton, Miss Julia Constance, daughter of the late James T. Aldrich, Esq., and Thomas N. Baker, all of Barnwell. At Barnwell on the 14th instant, by Rev. G. C. Brown, Miss Julia Brown, daughter of the late Col. B. H. Brown, and W. H. Easterling, ell of Barnwell. i (. Personal.—The many friends of Dr. G. R. C. Todd, who recognize his ability as a physician and skill as a surgeon, will be glad to learn that he has returned to Barnwell and will resume the practice of his profession. Master George Todd Pate also ar rived in Barnwell Sunday morning and although a fine looking lad, the fact of his being No. 6 was regarded by the “old man” as a special reason why he should not “celebrate.” Capt. E. T. Moore requests us to say that he cannot be a candidate for the Legislature He fully appre ciates the kindness of the many friends who have so warmly favored his candidacy, but the demands of hi» extensive business monopolize his time and attention. Mr. Bennett Stringfellow, of Tair- mount, will remove to Elko next week and open a full stock of goods in the new store now being built by Messrs. Woodward and Gentry. The good people of Fairmount regret his re moval and those of Elko rejoice in- the coming of so good a citizen. Eight “Scientific Miracles” Claimed Poaaibilities cf Newly Perfected Hydrogenation Proctss Reminis cent of the X-Ray. sons indebted to said estate are ask- ed to make prompt payment to the undersigned administrator. G. HERMAN HARDEN, Admr., Estate of Robert B. Harden, Deceased. Kline, S. C., Sept.. 21, 1932 3t. NOTICE OF DISCHARGE. Reminiscent of tht X-Ray in the scope of its possibilities is the newly perfected hydrogenation process, which won the Nobel Chemistry Prize last year. The famous discovery, whicli at tracted world-wide interest in scien tific circles when it wan fir.'t announc- t*d, now promises to become a highly important factor in the field cf in dustry. At least eight what might be term ed •‘scientific miracles” are claimed for hydrogenation. A safety fuel, used in the regular gasoline engines of airplanes and motorboats and which will not explode oven if you drop lighted matches and cigarettes into it, is one of the most interesting discoveries. Hydrogenation has alr?ady been need in Germany during the «var for manufacture of ammonia and explo sives. The Standard Oil Company of New Jersey’s plant at Bayway, New Jersey, could be converted for this purpose in ca?e of national emer gency. Nitrate fertilizers are another ac-j complishment. I Dyes—which, like fertilizers and ammonia, have been made by the I. G. Farbenindustrie of German Dye Trust—make a fourth. A new motor oJ, which for the first time satisfies all five lubrication requirements of the modern automo bile engine, is the most va'uable re- 1 cent accomplishment of hydrogena- 1 tion. The product, which is called •‘Essolube,” wa^ announced here last month by the Standard Oi! Company! of New Jersey. StUl another achievement of the process is a line of hydrogenated sol-1 vent naphthas, expected to find a! market in the paint, lacquer, rubber and artificial leather indnstruv. Par ticularly, they are believed to make possible the further development of synthetic resin finishes g^atly super ior to lacquer, which may revolution ize automobile coatings. An anti-knock blending agent, in tended chiefly for export con umption, - is a further discovery. Should the woild ever run dry of it ; petroleum reserves—not an un likely event someday—gasoline and other products could be piade from coal, shale and lignite by means of hydrogenation. Notice is hereby given to all per sons concerned that I will 'file my final account as Administrator upon the e-tate of Robert B. Harden with the Hon. John K. Snelling, Judge of the Probate Court for Barnwell Coun ty, State of South Carolina, upon Saturday, October 15, 1932, at 11:00 o’clock in the foienoon, and -petition the said Court for an Order of Dis charge and Letters Dismissory.
