Amick, both of the upper part of the county. It seems that some time ago Proctor and Amick had some trouble about la bor. Thursday afternoon Proctor, who was drinking, called Amick and began to discuss the matter. Anmick told him to wait until he (Proctor) got sober, but Proctor wanted to settle the mat ter then and there. Finally Amick dis puted something that Proctor said. Proctor immediately dr'ew his knife and made a lunge at Amnick. The blade barely grazed Amick's face and neck and lodged in Proctor's arm, inflicting a painful but not serious wound.

Sheriff Buford in Pursuit of a "Coujurer" Plays the Role of Rheumatism Doctor. That superstition of the ante-bellum variety still flourishes in the make-up of the Southern negro was conclusively proved recently by a somewhat laugh able and rather interesting case which came to the notice of Sheriff Buford. Some time about the first of June Gabe Pall, a negro living on Sheriff Buford's place, near Gary's Lane, left his wife, and together with a negro girl about sixteen years of age and her brother, went to parts unknown. It was afterwards discovered that he had gone to Greenwood County and was living on W. 0. Goree's place. He had taken the name of John Smith and the names of the negroes, Hugh Glasgow and Helen Glasgow, whom he had taken with him, he had changed to Tom Hun ter and Helen Smith respectively. About a week ago the Sheriff received the following anonymous letter from an old negro living on the place to which Pall had gone: "Mr. Sheriff: a black man sed his name is John Smith, but som say it is Gabe. he come from Gary Lane. He done tric my gal, she has not walk in too month. Dr. say it is romtism. i no it haint. i told him i get eben wid him. i hope you want him, he goes to Greenwood nerly ebery Satday eben ing. He fetch a gal name May an a boy name Tom," etc., etc. Sheritl Buford knew about where the negro was and went to the neigh borhood. He impersonated the charac ter of a rheumatism doctor and was called in to diagnose the case of the girl who had been "conjured." He found that she was . suffering with rheumatism, but saw no grounds upon which the statement that she had been "tric" could have been based. How ever, he arrested the negro boy who had gone off with Pall on the charge of violation of contract, and brought the girl to town as a witness in the case. He had a warrant for Pall on the charge of abduction, but Pall was fleet of foot and made good his escape. The boy and girl have now both gone back to their home and the matter is ended, except that among the negroes on Goree's plantation in Greenwood there is still considerable excitement, I and the rheumatism of the "tric" girl 1 in spite of "Dr." Buford's attention, I continues to grow worse. Sight Completely Restored. It will be gratifying to the many friends of Mrs. E. H. Norris to learn that under the skillful treatment of Dr. E. F. Parker, in Charleston, her sight has been completely restored. Her son, Mr. Robert Norris goes to Char leston tonight to accompany her home. Mrs. Norris for some time had been afflicted with cataracts on both eyes and her eyesight had so completely failed that -she could scarcely dis tinguish any object. Some weeks ago she decided to go to Charleston and to have an operation performed by Dr. Parker. As stated, the operation was entirely successful. A Troublesome Dog. A little black fice dog caused consid erable trouble in town Saturday and Saturday night. It got into several stores and would fail to go out, except by main force and an attempt at fight. [t bit a little negro porter at Mim naugh's store. It was put out of Sum mer Bros.' witha hoe and pitchfork and ran up into Dr. Boozer's office, where it remained until about 9 o'clock Sat urday night, when several gentlemen finally had to kill it to get it out. It fought to the last and no one could go to it. Struck His Wife, Saturday night Tony Moore, colored, and his wife were taking supper in an up-town negro restaurant, when they got into a dispute and Tony struck his wife with a stick, knocking her sense less. Tony made his escape immedi ately and has not been seen since. Married. By Rev. D. P. Boyd, Nov. 23d, 1902, at the bride's home near Trinity, Mr. D. J. Williams to Miss M.
