to investigate the drowning of the j
negro boy, Henry Graham,on Thurs-1
day, July 25, met at the court house
Friday afternoon last, with Coroner
Scott presiding. The jury found
that the boy came to his death by
accidental drowning. There was a '
rumor to the effect that the boy had
been beaten and thrown into the
river as a result of a dispute over a
watermelon.
The meeting which has been going j
on at the Baptist church here since i
Sunday, August 4, conducted by
Messis Westendorf, Huthmaker.Sigwald
and Parker of Charleston, is
still in progress and will continue
throughout the week, and Sunday.
The church is filled to its capacity
at every meeting and the services
have been highly entertaining and
enjoyable?a spiritual uplift to the
community.
Tobacco sales were heavier in
Kingstree Tuesday and Wednesday
of this week than on any day since
the opening of the market. Each of
the three warehouses was filled with
the golden weed and prices ranged
from 4c to 38c per pound. Buyers
say they have to pay from si to $l!
more per hundredweight here for
tobacco than at anv other market in
the State for similar grades. This
speaks volumes for Kingstree as a
tobacco market.

day picnic at Union church, near

several other interesting articles being
crowded out of this issue
The editor'Gf The Record returned
119x110 Sunday from a sanitarium
at Greenville, where he had
spent several months. While not
very strong as yet we are glad to
announce that Editor Wolfe's condition
has much improved within
the past few weeks and his friends
hope soon to see him at his desk
again. It will be several weeKs.nowever,
before he will be able to actively
resume his duties, even under
the most favorable auspices. Meantime
the paper will be issued as
heretofore by Mr Tolley, who has
admirably discharged the duties of
editor, pro tern, during Mr Wolfe's
enforced absence.
Judge Brockinton's services were
in demand early Monday morning:
when Mr Charlie Ward of Lenud
and Miss Janie Lambert of Sampit
appeared at his office for a marriage
license just after the arrival of train
No 80. It was very evident that they
were in a hurry, hut the Judge did
not keep them in anxiety long. He
soon showed up, issued the desired
document and performed the ceremony
necessary to make the couple
man and wife. Just after the ceremonv
had been performed the voice
of an angry papa was heard over a
telephone inquiring if a certain couple
had applied for a marriage license.
The voice was too late. The
job had been completed and two
hearts made to beat as one. They
left on a noon train.

Fellow Democrats: ?
Circumstances beyond my control
:ause me to withdraw my candidacy
for Road engineer for Williamsburg
:ounty. I desire to thank my friends
and the voters, one and all, for the
encouragement I have had.
I also want to suggest to my opponents
as well as all the other candidates
to run this campaign on a
high plane and thereby maintain the
record of old Williamsburg county.
I also want to say to the voters of
Williamsburg county to go to the
polls on the 27 day of August and
te for their best interest as they
see it regardless of all the issues
that are flooding our State. Leave
state politics out of our county politics
and vote for the man that will
till the office best regardless of political
views. '
I regret very much not being able
to meet the appointments and bespeak
for you all a pleasant time.
Your servant,

DELIGHTFUL SOCIAL EVENT.
Young People Entertained by
the Misses and Mr Staekley.
i One of the most enjoyable occasions
that has engaged the attention
of the young people of kingstree
this season was the reception Monday
night at Mr and Mrs L J Stackley's,
given by their son, Mr Sam
Staekley and the Misses Staekley in
honor of their guests, Mr Walton H
Smith of Turbeville, Mr Marion Lani
o .__u 1 iu:??
flciin Ol OpaiUUlUUIK ctnu miss uruigia
Stackley of Florence. The
quests began to arrive about nine
o'clock. The receiving line consisted
of Miss Georgia Stackley, Mr
Walton H Smith, Mr Marion Lanham,
Miss Jennie Lee Stackley, Miss
Annie Stackley and Mr Sam St ick
ley. As fast as the guests arrived
' they were served punch by Miss!
Katie Stackley and Mr Virgil Hinds,! ;
and then proceeded to the parlor j j
J where the games of the evening! j
were played and enjoyed.
The first thing to occupy the
minds and exercise the thought-cen-; !
1! ters of those present was a short
poem with several omitted words toj
be supplied. The spaces or blanks!
were to be filled with words relat- !
ing to music, such as bar, note, time, j
rhapsody, space, etc, and the whole
when completely filled out was a!
little romantic story. After the;
contest was over, those who had
succeeded in filling out tne blanks
without error were allowed to "cut"
for the prize. Miss Florrie Jacobs
won tie prize, which was a pretty
song.
The next contest was worked out
from Mother Goose's rhymes, and
was very interesting. The prize in
this contest, which was a book of
Mother Goose rhymes, was won by
Miss Hazel Gewinner. Miss Eunice
Harper, while contests were being!
; engaged in and also another times,
favored the guests by playing some
: very pretty pieces on the piano.
This was a very enjoyable part of
the occasion. During the evening
refreshments were served. Everyj
thing was daintily arranged, and the J
1 guests were all highly entertained
and enjoyed the occasion to the
fullest degree.
Those present and participating
in the merriment of the evening
were Miss Annie Jenkins of South
Boston, V'a, Miss Hazel Gewinner of j
Macon, Ga, Miss Georgia Stackley!
of Florence, Miss Hattie Plowden j
of Manning, Misses Martha, Mary
