(Received too late lor lust we?k's Issue),
Bethel, June 29:?For more than
two weeks we have had an abundance
of rain, too much in some
places. Crops free from grass and
not drowned out have improved
somewhat, but are quite small for
the time of year. The farmers are
doing all they can under under unfavorable
conditions. The'writer has
been through a large section o?Clar endon
countv and nearly the same
condition prevails there. I saw
large fields of oats that had not been
harvested and most of crop gather- j
wed was moulding in the shock. Corn j
where not overflowed looked well,
but cotton in most of the fields is.

Bethel, July 4:?The farmers have

some of the older ones are celebrating

Mr. Phillips' Narrow Escape?A
Quiet "Fourth"?Personal Notes.
Benson,July 4:?Mr W T Phillips,
of whom mention was made in last
week's Record as having been struck
by lightning, is getting along nicely.
This is certainly one of the most remarkably
narrow escapes from in
stant death that we have ever heard
of. During a heavy rain and thunder
storm Mr Phillips was standing on
his piazza catching water in a tub
as it poured from a tin gutter attached
to the eaves of the dwelling,
when a bolt of lightning struck th?
rods on the house, and the water,being
a good conductor, drew off part
of the electric current, transmitting
it to Mr Phillips and striking his arm
near the hand, following the arm
to the shoulder, then dovrn the right
side, leaving a red streak until it
reached the leg; there it lacerated
the flesh down to the foot, where it
split a gash between the small toe
and next. His shoe was literally torn
from the foot.
Miss Leila Epps of Kingstree was
a visitor at the home of her brother,
Mr G Ollie Epps, last week.
Mr Barron B Snowden of Georgia
came to his old home at Indiantown
last week to be with relatives and
friends for a day or two.
Misses Bettie and Evie Guerry took
a pleasant trip to the City by the
Sea to enjoy the surf on the Isle of
Palms durintr this week of warm
weather.
Miss Sena Phillips leaves for
Charleston to-day; she will prolong
her visit among relatives for some
time,enjoying the salubrious climate
of the quaint old yity.
The Fourth passed off very quietly
here. An enjoyable ice-cream
party in the evening at the school
building was the only happening
that commemorated this historic
event. W E S
