Congress Fulmer
Urges People to Vote
Quotes Letter from .National Cam
paign Headquarters Indicating
Roosevelt Victory.
THE REV. JOHN A. PINCKNEY
HAS RESIGNED AS RECTOR
The People-Sentinel is in receipt
of a letter from Congressman H. P.
Fulmer, of Orangeburg, in which he
urges the people of Barnwell County
to turn ou;t en masse and “poll every
vote possible for our great President,
Franklin D. Roosevelt,” next Tues
day. “Not only did he save us from
one of the worst revolujtions ever
recorded in the world’s history,”
writes Congressman Fulmer, “but he
has been a God-send to the unorgan
ized classes engaged in every line of
endeavor in protecting them from the
oppression of well*organized and well
financed groups.”
Congressman Fulmer also enclosed
a copy of the following letter that he
received last week from Sam Rayburn,
chairman of the Speakers’ Bureau,
Democratic national campaign com
mittee, which is self-explanatory:
“It has occurred to me that you
might be interested to know that all
reporta, confidential, and otherwise,
coming into headquarters, indicate a
sweeping victory on November 3rd.
“The opposition is breaking down
all along the line, and there are none
entitled to greater credit for this con-
The Rev. John A. Pinckney, who
recently tendered his resignation as
rector of the Church of the Holy
Apostles at Barnwell, effective No
vember 1st, to accept a call to Tryon,
N. C., will leave in a few days for
his new field. He conducted his last
service in the local church Sunday
afternoon.
In eddition to the Barnwell Episco
pal Church, the Rev. Mr. Pinckney
was rector of the Allendale and Es-
till churches also. He came to this
parish about five and a half years
ago, making his home in Allendale.
His resignation was accepted with
regret by the vestry of the three
churches and the best wishes of his
former congregations will follow him
and his family to their new home.
Bishop Albrt S. Thomas, of Char
leston, is expected to visit the parish
at an early date, at which time he
will probably suggest a rector to fill
the vacancy caused by the Rev. Mr
Pinckney’s resignation.

DEUVERED 18 YEARS LATER
OFFICERS INSTALLED BY

A card mailed in France in 1918 has been delivered to its addressee, 18

professor at North Carolina State, wrote his niece, Mary Cornelia Coggin,
then a child in care of her grandmother, Mrs. W. S. Mims, in Blackville.
Since the letter was mailed, the war has long ended, Corporal Coggin is
npw Professor Coggin and Mary Cornelia is now teaching at Angelas.
October 21, 1936, 18 yeais and 2 months later to the day, the card was de
livered to the home of Mrs. Mims in Blackville, where Miss Coggin, who
happened to be there, received it.

Blackville, Oct. 27.—The Blackville-
Barnwell game to be played in Black

of Fair week, in that the two schools
are bitter rivals of long standing. To
add to that rivalry, the Barnwell
coach, Price, and the Blackville coach,
De Hines, were high school team
mates at Hyatt Psrk, Columbia. Both
teams so far this ysar hsv* made
good records, and both will be out to
win the gam# Thursday. It la ex
