o
In this issue of The Record will be
found cards announcing their candidacy
for office by, Messrs. H. S. Gamble,
H. U. Kinder, and P. M. Brockinton,
for the office of sheriff of this
county. They are*all well known, citizens
and anything that this paper
might say by way of introduction
would be superflous. They are all fine
fellows and we wish it were possible
for them all to have just what they
want.
Magistrate J. D. Gamble, who has
been tried and not found wanting, announces
his candidacy for re-appointment
as magistrate of Kingstree. He's
a mighty clever old boy and we are
sure his friends will stick to him like
tar to a blanket.
