(Received too >ate for last week's issue). ^ Andrews, October 24:?Mr John Hughes,of the Potato Ferry section, died Thursday, October 20, of pneumonia, after an illness of only a few day. Mr Hughes was a man of good I reputation and was well thought of in his community. ^ Mr W T Cliff, who has been in the service of the Atlantic Coast Lumber Corporation for five or six years,has \irifTi thflt I sevcrtu ins tuuucv.<.iv/u mm company and accepted a position with Hilton- )odge Lumber Co of Georgia. Mr Cliff says the salaries paid in Georgia are much better than are paid in South Carolina. it . Our farmers have suffered some V -" . loss by the ind and rain of last week; no cotton was picked during !. the week. * The home of Mr and Mrs Labranue was made happy last Monday by the arrival of an eleven-pound baby boy. The graded school has employed another teacher, which makes four in all. Mr Ritter, the popular principal, called on the writer last week at his place of business and spent ome time in conversation. I think Ki?nnnn? inofm/ttnr fnllvmmnptpnt VU1 JVUIlg UlObi UVWi vvm?^wm? for the position he holds, and our school should be congratulated on > securing his services. The pupils are devoted to him and I believe much good will be accomplished by this earnest and capable man, spiritually as well as temporally, as he has just graduated from a preparatory school for the ministry. Miss Rosa Graham, Mrs Coker and the young lady just arrived are doing good work, both in the school-room and the different , churches and Sunday-schools of our town. Mr E W Hendisee of Marion has just moved in to town and will make this his home. Mr Hendisee holds a responsible position with the ACL Corporation. Subscriber. Andrews, October 31:?The local express offce was entered a few . nights ago ;..nd several cases of whiswere stolen by some white boys of the town, Some of the people of the town are trying to "white-wash" the affair and drop it, but some of us drill prosecute to the bitter end. This same family has been upheld in other evil deeds and there will never be any check to this thing until the law is fully erforced. We have no room for such thieves. The town election was pulled off last Monday. The old town officers and a few others got together in the east of town and.'nominated a ticket to suit themselves, putting thereon oply such men as suited them and leaving other candidates off the ticket. The people were allowed to vote only this printed ticket. What a farce to call this a town or municipal election! This will all come out in the wash and that will be when they go to enforce the laws of the town. If our town prospers its officials must come with a clean administration. Some of the wardens elected say they will not serve on such a platform. Sheriff C W Scurry of Georgetown spent last Saturday afternoon in town on business. About 125 bales of cotton were shipped from this point last Friday, the Georgetown Grocery Co being tfte Buyers. The writer visited Kingstree last ; Monday and spent a pleasant day L ? meeting several of his friends. p People of our town are glad to !*' u' ___r of the improvement of Mr KelPj * Bcttv We hope he may soon be j-jly restored to health. , - Subscriber.

October 25:?The J Trio revival was begun week before last by Rev S T Russell,pastor of the i, Baptist church, assisted a few days by Rev W H Perry, and was continued by the latter last week at the request of the congregation. The , meeting closed Sunday night and resulted in five additions to the Methodist church. It looks as though the j meeting should have continued, as; some nights there were from 12 to j ( 25 to come forward for prayer., \ Had it continued a few days longer1; there would likely have been many j more additions to the church, as Is there were at Taft the last few j j nights there. More good meetings ; i are shorn of their best results by ' stopping a little too soon than are ! injured by running too long. The Taft meeting was run by the i' pastor. Rev W H Perry, a week and ! a half and resulted in 18 additions; i : ^ to the church. The pastor was aided j j two days and three nights the first' 1 week of the meeting. He rendered11 helpful service by earnest, forceful I preaching and effective altar work. ' A flourishing Sunday-school and J prayer meeting have been started at j Taft as a result of the meeting, led j by Messrs E R Rowell, W D Bryan j ^ and others. May they accomplish j i much good. jj Mrs Mary Geneva Perry of Sal- (i ters, wife of Rev W H Perry, pastor 1 ?who spent three weeks in the Ro- 1 per hospital of Charleston in Janua- j ry, where she underwent a delicate and serious operation, and again \ spent four weeks at the Riverside ' infirmary in July and August, where t she underwent further operations? ' has so far recovered that she, ac j companied by Miss Josie Francis l (Perry), a young lady whom they t have had in training for 8 years, s went down on the train to Trio Fri- | day night and aided in the meeting ! till its close. She conducted a special ' service tor the ladies and children Sinday evening, which we are informed, was very much enjoyed by those present, of whom there were a goodly number. She returned to Salters Monday for Miss Francis tQ j re-enter school. i Rev W T Bedenbaugh, aided by Rev C B Ogburn a few days last week and by Rev W H Perry Monday night, closed his meeting at Earls last night with 4 additions. | He seems to be much in favor with j the people of Andrews circuit,which < he serves, and has added about 40 members to the charge this year.
