somewhat sadly shot to'pieces in this
county.
Late Saturday evening, on his re
turn to Greenwood from Ninety Six,
where he hadbeen with Rural Police
Officer J. T. McDowell and where he
had to put up a $25 bond for disor

very belligerent and, pulling out his
pistol, proceeded to shoot up the ten

of these places as bomb proof quar

of them in double quick time.
Chief M. B. Chandler, after hearing
the rumpus, went to the court house,
and found that Officer 'Martin was in
the 'hands of county officials. Sunday
Martin himself came to Chief Chand

that effect. Chief Chandler went to

dollar bond, which he put up for his
appearance in the city court this
-morning. When Alayor Hirtzog called
for him this morning Martin did not
answer to his name, and so the one
hundred dollar bond is now numbered
among the cash assets of the city.
Earlier in the afternoon .Martin and
Officer McDowell went to Ninety Six
in search for whiskey traffic, and
