NEW COUNTY FLECTION.
Papers Presented Were in Unusually
Good Shape.
Columbia, Special.?The papers filed
in the matter of the petition to the
pflVArnnr tn r>r.'lr?r nn lirinn ihp !
question of the formation of the new |
county of Pee Dee out of the supper |
portion of Marion county have been !
carefully examined and "have been
found to be regular in every respect,
meeting all constitutional and legislative
requirements. The assistant attorney
general went over the documents
with the governor, and they
were found in better shape perhaps
than any filed in any new county matter.
The map shows that the upper 4 ortion
of the present country oI Marion
is proposed to be taken, with the Atlantic
Coast Line bisecting the new
county, and with Dillon in the centre
for the county seat.
Governor McSweeney fixed January
ICth as the day for the election to be
neiu. ine aavocaies or me new county
wanted an earlier date, but it could not
be given for several reasons.
The numerously signed petition Gled
sets forth the following facts, all of
whjch are sworn to in attached affidavits
prepared in the proper form:
"We, the undersigned qualified electors
signing the petition and the duplicates
thereof, and constituting moro
than one-third of the qualified electors
residing within the area of the county
of Marion set forth and describe below,
and which we desire shall be incorporated
into a new county respectfully
petition your excellency to order an
election in the territory proposed to be
cut off for a new county from the upper
portion of Marion county, upon the
question of creating a new county, and
upon tne name ana county seat tnereof.
We propose "Pee Dee" as the name
of the proposed new county. We further
show that by the United States
census of 1900 there are In the 3aid
county 0-" Marlon 35,181 Inhabitants;
that there is more than one one hundred
and twenty-fourth part of the population
of the State within the boundaries
of the proposed new county, to
wit, 17,832 inhabitants, and there is
left in the old county of Marion 17,34.1
inhabitants, and there are 992 square
miles in the entire county of Marion
of which there are 403 square miles
in the proposed new county and 592
square miles left in the old county;
that the taxable property of the entire
county of Marion as shown by the
last tax returns of the said county is
the sum of $4,403,108, and of that
amount there i3 in the proposed new
county as shown by the said return
the sum of $2,185,32G, and there i3 left
in the old county the sum of $2,2f7,7S2
of taxable property; that tho pronnoorl
Unco nf olrl new rniTTltV <lf?
not run nearer than eight miles of
any court house building now established
b7 law."
The governor's proclamation ordering
the election reads as follows:
"Whereas petitions signed by the
qualified electors of certain sections
of Marion county has been filed with
me, and from said petitions and accompanying
papers It appears that
one-third of the qualified electors residing
within the area of*each section
of the said county proposed to be cut
off for a new county have signed said
petition, and,
"Whereas, the boundaries of the proposed
new county, the proposed name,
the number of inhabitants, the area,
the taxable property, as shown by
last tax returns, and the proposed linos
for the new county do not run nearer
than eight miles to any court house
building now established and set forth
in said petition:
"Now, therefore, I, M. B. McSweeney.
governor of the State of South
Carolina, in compliance with the requirements
of an act of the general
assemblv. entitled 'An act to provide
for the formation of new counties,
etc.. approved March 9, 1896, do hereby
order an election in the territory to
be cut off for the new county on
Thursday, January 16, 1902, to be hold
In accordance with the requirements
of said act, at which election the electors
shall vote 'Yes' or 'No' upon the
question of creating a new county, and
upon the name and county seat of the
proposed county."
A Pardon Granted.
The governor has granted a pardon
in the case of T. A. Phillips, convicted
in Spartanburg county in May, 1901,

and mitigating circumstances were presented

was granted. No action has yet been
tken in the Charleston case referred to
Sunday. The yonug man will be
brought from the penitentiary this

LIFE OF HONOR, PIR1IY AND IRUM
Chanaellor W. D. Johnson, of flarion,
Passes Aw3y.
Marlon, Special.?Hon. Wm. D.
Johnson died at his home in this ;own
Tuesday night at 10 o'clock. The enl
of his long, useful and honorable life
was peaceful and painless. The members
of his family were ail in attend
i ance at bis cleaui oca, oeing prep.ireu
to expect the sad event In view of
the advanced age of the venerable sufferer
and of the grave' symptoms bis
sickness had developed during the
last few days.
Chancellor Johnson was in his Mth
year, having been Loin in North Carolina,
Sept. 9, 1&1S. He came of line
old Scotch stock, his ancestors on the
maternal side belonging to the prominent
Dalrymple family. They followed
the fortunes of the Stuarts, and
when the hopes of the "bonnie prince,"
were blasted at Culloden some of
them joined the Scottish contingent
of exiles that sought refuge along the
| banks of the Cape Fear.
{ Mr. Johnson was educated at Davidson
college and at Princeton, and after
his graduation located at Bennettsvllle.
He studied law and was admitted
to the bar, and was thoroughly
equipped for his life work. His high
character and eminent ability soon
found appreciative recognition at the
hands of discerning electors, by whom
he was sent to the convention that
adopted the ordinance of secession,
and afterwards chosen State Senator
f mm Mgrlhnrn dlstrlpf When hia
senatorial term expired the legislature
showed its appreciation of his legal
talents and his moral rectitude and integrity
by electing him to the chancery
bench, which he occupied vith
credit and ever increasing respect
until the Jurisdiction was abolished
In 1861?.
About that time Mr. Johnson removed
to Marion and formed a law
partnership with MaJ. J. M. Johnson,
Mr. J. M. Johnson, a son-in-law of the
chancellor, being afterwards admitted
as a partner. This firm did an
active and extensive business In Marion
and the adjoining counties, and
was kept up until a year or more ago
when the weight of years and increasing
bodily infirmity compelled the
venerable senior member to withdraw
from the practice. In the meantime
the chancellor exhibited the versatill,
ty of his strong genius by carrying
on successfully one of. the largest agricultural
enterprises In this section cf
the State. His well known farm at
Denoho was a model of scientific agrij
culture conducted on a large scale.
He was besides a learned authority
! on pomology and horticulture, and his
I nraetical mind comprehended every
detail of barnyard and'stock farm.
A striking proof of the chancell >r's
personal integrity, as well r.s his
business capacity, is the fact that for
more than SO years past through all
the depression, uncertainty and vicissitude
of that period he managed the
affairs of a large tn^st estate involving
many thousands of dollars so
skilfully and faithfully as to avoid
anv depletion of corpus and interest;
and he was but recently discharged
from the trust with the commendation
of fhe court.*
Chancellor Johnson married In
1?G1 Miss Sarah Elizabeth McCall of
Darlington district, who preceded him
to the grave nearly 25 $*ears ago. The
surviving children are Messrs. N. M.

Who Can Aid Her ?
The governor has received a letter
from Mrs. Martha J. Mote of 417 N.
13th street, Richmond, Ind., asking
for Information of Middleton who
was sent from Charleston to the
Senate early In the century. She says
Senator Middleton was a first cousin
of my grandfather, John Middleton,
son of Joseph Middleton. The governor
says he Is no authority on geneology,
but asks that any who can aid
tho lady do so.
