S'earlv all the business houses were closed and the streets vere practically deserted the greater part of the day. Many lunting parties were abroad, jut we have not heard of any ^reat killing of game. Once more we have to remind i correspondent that the real lame of the writer must acompanv the article, not for mblication necessarily, but as in evidence of good faith. We lo not publish anonymous con-1 ributions, and and the signaure "Rob" conveys to us abolutely no clue to the identity >f the writer. Almost every week some >leased advertising patron tells i is of direct results derived from j ising the columns of The Rec- j ?rd. Most of the good that ad-; ertising does cannot be direct-' y traced. Seed sown in adverising ripen into fruition slowly ometimes, but results will surey come it the goods are there to tack up the advertisement. Mr L W McCants went into he swamp near his dwelling Icnday to cut some wood and ehile crossing-a little pool of rater his foot slipped and he; ell on his arm, fracturing one >f the bones above the wrist, riie injury, while somewhat j >ainful, is not serious, and a ; ew hours after the accident Mr j JcCants was able to be out on i he street. Statements of the condition, . i >f the Bank of Greelyville and he Bank of Scranton at the call >f the bank examiner on November 1G are published in this ssue. Each of these insti- j utions makes about the best ihowiog in its history.
