Ward-Montgomery
Report For the County Record
On Tuesday morning, December
23rd, at 10 o'clock at the home of the
bride's sister, Mrs. Pauline Lincoln of
McClellanville, a beautiful marriage
took place?that of Miss Jessie Ward
to Mr. R. C. Montgomery of Greely
ville. The old country home was beautifully
decorated in smilax and holly.
The attractive bride wore a becoming
traveling suit of brown cloth. Miss
EUa Montgomery, sister of the groom,
acted as maid of honor and Mr. Charlie
Ward, brother of the bride, as best
man.
Mrs. Montgomery was a teacher in
this county L^t winter and has won
many friends in and around Kingstree.
Mr. Montgomery is a progressive
young farmer of the county. They
expect to make their home on the old
Montgomery plantation between
Kingstree and Manning. Here's wishing
the young couple much success
and happiness.

R. N. Speigner at Bank of Williamsburg.
Mr. Raymond X. Speigner, who is
so well and favorably known to the
people of Williamsburg is now connected
with the Bank of Williamsburg
as teller, vice Mr. C J. Thompson
who resigned the first of January to
take up other work.
Mr. Speigner is a son of the Rev.
and Mrs. R. W. Speigner of this place.
He came first to Kingstree some
years ago to take up his duties as assistant
superintendent of the Kingstree
Graded school, which position he
filled with credit to himself and to the
' T A-- tf
patrons of the school. i^aier .nr.
Speigner became connected with the
Kingstree Insurance. Real Estate and
Loan Co., and was its efficient manager
for several years. In 1912 he was
elected to the office of county superintendent
of education which office he
filled very efficiently for two years.
He again took up teaching and was
in charge of the Hemingway Graded
school during two most successful
terms. He then accepted a position as
bookkeeper for the large mercantile
concern of W. C. Hemingway & Co.,
which he more recently resigned in
order to accpct a professorship at the
Porter Military Academy in Charleston,
which he gave up for his present
position at the Bank of Williamsburg.
For a number of years, between
school terms, Mr. Speigner has been
connected with the Nelson Warehouse
Jnrino- tnhacro season, as bookkeeper
and paying clerk. The Record congratulates
the Bank of Williamsburg upon
securing him as one of its force,
and we are sure his host of friends
here will be glad to learn that he is
back in Williamsburg county.

Cold Wave
A genuine cold wave struck this
section Saturday night after a light
rain fall and the temperature Sunday
morning was much lower than at anytime
during the previous week. The
thermometer continued to drop and
on Monday morning registered 14?
degrees above zero. During the day it
rose to 25? and again dropped to
14? Monday night. While this is not
ordinarily considered cold weather it
is a little too cold for this section and
causes a lot of inconvenience. As a
matter of fact we are not prepared
for freezing weather. Our homes
are constructed with a view to
warm weather and the same applies
to plumbing and heating arrange|
ments, and if it were not for the
splendid flowing wells all over town
our water troubles would be much
greater, and would very probably
drive many of us to Black River for
that one great necessity.

icine" given by Mrs. Lizzie Bryson, of ,
Piedmont, S. C., May 9, 1917. "When
I began taking Tanlac," continued <
Mrs. Bryson, "I was so weak and
broken down I could heardly keep out
of bed. I had no appetite, I could not 1
rest soundly, and I was nervous to j
kill.
"The Tanlac gave me back my !
health and strength, though. I soon j
had a fine appetite, my nerves became i
strong and steady and I felt fine in j

me feeling like a new woman. It was
