Mr Hawkins has proved himself a good citizen and Manning regrets giving him up, but at the same time extends him best wishes for prosperity in his new home. Manning Timet. When a township votes itself out of a county to go to another it not only must bear its proportion of the new county debt, but it must also bear its proportion of the bonded indebtedness of the county it left. The townships in Clarendon seeking to join Sumter or Williamsburg, or the proposed new county of >n Be B e largest and most complete stock taple and Fancy Linens, White Go< ur huvpr is nnw in Watch For' e Dry I : Beulah or Rutledge, would be wise to think before you act and thus prevent double taxation. Clarendon has assumed a bonded indebtedness, and every township is responsible for thit debt, whether it remains into county or goes elsewhere.? Manning Times, w ? New Advertisements.
