campaign ?
One of our young men is attending
school on Mondays and Friday*?.
The teacher isn't a man and spends
, ' Saturdays and Sundays at home,
some miles from the school house.
f It seems that this young man does
not want the teacher to hold the
position mueh longer. Ha recites
ills lessons privately.
Mr. W. T. Askins is determined
to keep the dispensary away from
i T.ake City ;if voting will do it.
Two boys came to his hause together
on Tuesday of last week.
They will be old enough to vote legally
in twsnty-one years. The
morning after tneir arrival Mr.
Askins ordered a car load af meal.
Isn't meal an ingredient of that soft
baby food sailed pap ?
Oa the evening of the 19th Mr.
deorge J. Brothers and Miss Erwin
Severance were united in the holy
bonds of wedlock. It was a church
marriage, and one of the prettiest
that has been witnessed here.
Even before the appointed hour, 7
o'clock, the Baptist church, where
the ceremony took place, was
crowded with a concourse of inter
ted friends. The church was tastefully
decorated and well lighted.
Theyeungcouple takin? their vows,
the man of God pronouncing the
solemn words never to be revoked,
the attendants and the background
of evergreens and flowers made a
pretty picture and one likely to linger
in the halts of memory. The
short ami simple, but impressive,
eeremony was performed by the
Rev. T. J. Rooke. The attendants:
Mr. R. J. Severance, of Florence,
best mat), ?nd Miss Ethel V .Brothers,
of Charleston, mnid of honor;
Mr. William baiters, of Charleston,
and Miss Cecil Severance; Mr. J.
W. Floyd and Miss Sue Severance.
The musie was furnished by Mrs.
W.E. Severance. Among the vis- i
iting guests we may mention Capt.
1). E. Gordon and Miss Florence
Gordon.efLanes; Miss Leila Whitfield,
efSalters; Mesdames Edwin
Parker and J. W. Cotton and Misses

of Lanes, and Dr. A. G. Eaddy, of
Johnsonville. After the marriage
the bridal party and a fewe guests
repaired to the liome of the bride's
parents and attempted to do justice
to the nice supper served. The
---jroung couple went to Charleston
on the 8.30 train. Mr. Brothers
is an engineer of the A. C. Line,
and the bride is the eldest daughter
of Mr. and Mrs.P. E. Severance.
They will make their home in Florence,
where Mr. Btothers recently
built a nice residence. By the loss
of a Severance a union is made,
and the couplo are Brothers, notwithstanding
one is a woman. We
congratulate Mr. Brothers, for he
secured a wife of whom anv one
nifrnt. nrmiri. Her oualities of
" 6"" I ? ,
hem] and heart are of the kind that
Justifies the declaration that woman
was the crown of creation.
Hearty ??od wishes are given that
their united lives may be abundant
in joys and brightness and that their
life's journey may he made hand
in hand under glad skies and in the
breath of rose-laden breezes.

8. W. G. Shipp, E#q., of Florence,
spent last Sunday in town. Jt is
said that he came on business?not
professional, however.
Escaped from Chaingang.
Caesar Gaskins, alias William
Johnson, one of the negroes sent
lo the chaingang last week lor
stealing sundry articles from Mr.
T. A, dlakeley's store at Santee
Crossing, an account of which appeared
in last week's Record,
made a bold oretiK ior jiueriv lasi
Sunday afternoon, which seems to
have been successful. While the
guard, Mr. E. R. Melvm, was
marching the convicts into the
cab for the night, just about 5
o'clock p. m., Gaskins suddenly
jumped over the tengue of the
cab and darted behind the vehicle.
As soon as possible the guard
ran around the cab alter him and
the negro broke for the woods.
Mr. Melvin shot at him twice at
close range but tne negro continued
running, although it is believed
that ssme of the shot struck
him.
The blood hound at the camp
was at once released and put on
the trail, but the negro took to
ihe water and thereby prevented
the dog from following him, thus
making good his escape.
The charngang is still at work
near the lowtr bridge.
