Lake City, December 3:?Mr
x and Mrs tfeorge Brothers of
Florence were here Sunday visiting.
h Mr and Mrs EG A&kinscame
tip from Kingstree and were
with relatives here during
Thanksgiving
A party of some twenty-five
men went out to Hudson's Mill
and rendered their thanks, over .
(barbecue and fish on the day
usually held sacred to the worship
of turkey.
Miss Cecil Severance is at
home from Valdosta, Ga. We
understand that she has resigned
her position with the Western
Union at that place.
. Thanksgiving day was generally
observed throughout the
6 town. All places of business
2 except one or two drug stores
were closed and the day went
by quietly and pleasantly.
Editor Wolfe was noted here
a short while Saturday.
Mr J D King, who has oper
ated the "King" warehouse unf
-der lease ever since it was built,
has now purchased the property
| from. Mr J J M Graham.
? Miss Alice Stackhouse ot
Marion is visiting at Rev S J Betbea's.
Mr
T C Covington and Miss
; Pauline Woodley spent the
Thanksgiving holidays at their
respective homes, the former
at Bennettsville apd the latter
Pat Sumter. School was closed
from Wednesday to Monday.
Mrs E W Yates and son, Master
Eugene, spent a part of
last week at Rome with the
family of Mr J J Snow.
Mrs R F Joyner and Miss Li.die
Howie have returned home
'
g from a visit of several days in
c Charleston.
The members of Camp Branch
church at McAlister's mill are
hnildinur a new honfi#? of wor.
ship, the congregation having
far outgrown the present struct>
lire?in fact three times as much
w y>om as they now have is need\
;ed. The new house will be thirty-five
by sixty feet and is being
erected immediately by the
eastern side of the old one. The
foundation was laid by some
11 i. leading members on Thanksgiving
day. How appropriate!
* as we waicnea tnese men wording
with level and line and trowel,
joyous as they laid brick upon
brick, the thought came to
us, "Here is the strength of the
nation, the Christian religion."

We have a class of lazy, shiftless
and ignorant whites chat
could go far towards helping to
solve1 the labor' problem, but
this lazy sbiftlessness and ignorance
keep them in the same
groove year after year.
Some people would be ashamed
to be caught driving the
scavenger cart or throwing mud |
out of a ditch, yet think lightly :
of robbing a ben roost1 and ,
laugh at stealing a sleeping
man's watch.

The little child of Mrs Aubrey
Matthews, who lives near i McAliater's.was
accidentally burned
so badly last Wednesday that it
died in a few hours- The little
fellow's clothes caught at a fire
in the yard around which he
with another child was playing.
The burning clothing was
finally extinguished,but too late
to save the Child's life.
Saturday there whs found in
the woods just beyond the town
limits and near Mr S T Godwin's
place\ a human skeleton, supposed
to be that pf Ben Graham.
There were the ' head, part of
the pelvis and a few other bones,
a single barrel gun, a cap and a
hat, some clothing and a few
pieces of money, amounting to
sixty-six cents, were oy iae
bones. These articles were positively
identified as the property
of the negro, Ben Graham.
It will be recalled that his wife
was killed about ten weeks ago
at their home near Single and
that Ben was accused of the
crime. The night of the tragedy
Ben disappeared. One or two ,
negroes claim to have seen him
about a week thereafter near
where these relics were found.
Some think Ben killed himself
with a load from his gun. Others
however hold a different
theory. While the gun and other
articles are very probably
Ben's, the bones are bleached
white, all the teeth except one
are gone, there is only a small
fraction of all the bones of a
complete skeleton; the entire
top of the skull is broken into
several pieces which was evidently
done by a blow, and there
are no signs'Of a shot any where.
