SANTUG LETTER.
Personals?Ladies Aid Society?Rain

Miss Ethel Jeter, who has been
teaching the last twelve months in ,
Tozeville, Virginia, came home last
week.
M rs. R. (1. A. Jeter and children
Are spending awhile at her parents,
Mr. and Mrs. I. L. Iloho's.
Miss Lillian Caekfield, of Johnsonville,
is here on a visit to her
cousin, Miss Myrtle Boston.
The entertainment given by the
Ladies Aid Society last Friday night
at Rev. T. B. Owen's, was a sueeess,
Although the night was
threatening, even raining, a large
number were present, and tin; so
ciai matures were also good as the
"aid" part.
The first week was one of cloudiness
and rain, and generally cool,
east winds. The rainfall was
and with only a little over 4 per
cent of sunshine. The ground is
thoroughly saturated, and crops are
in need of sunshine. Bottomlands
received a great check as they cannot
stand so much rain. Then; was
only one day's ploughing done in
seven.
Some negroes must be acquiring,
a taste for bad meat that is fit for a
buzzard; for hunting rabbits is very i

poor rabbits, suckling, billed with
chigoe sores and ticks, and sticky,!
slimey looking meat, and then there
may often be a lot of tiny young
ones left to starve in the beds. I
do not believe land owners ought to
allow it. It is only of late years
that hunting rabbits, all summer
was known. People had a little
more respect for their taste. Hut
the meat may be out at those fellows'
houses. If this "improves",
wouldn't some folks be fin^to turn ,

rmifA GRAND JURY.
To his Hondn xjKJt. Prince, Judge
'Presiding at W Summer Term of
Court for Union County 1906.
We, tin; (irand Jurors of I'nion
County, hog t<> submit this our report.
We have can fully examine*!
ail indictments handed us hy the
Solictor, sunt have passed upon
them as the evidence seemed to
justify. Wo have in a hody visited
the County Parish and Jail; have
Found each in good condition. The
patients in the Parish are well provided
for an*I seemed perfci tly contented.
We as a hody visited that
part of the public highway lending
from I'nion to Cross Keys, where
the Supervisor and Commissionerare
building, grading ami macadamizing
the public highway with the
ehaingaug and other help. We inspected
the rock quarry, the machinery
and the work *>n the said
public highway, and in our l?est
judgment the Supervisor and Com
misMoners an* doing a great work,
which will no doubt last for the
use of generations to come.
We recommend that the Supervisor
and Commissioners continue
to press with great vigor this work
in all its details.
Owing to tin- fact that a number
of our public oMicers make settlements
with the Comptroller (leneral
on July tin; 1st next, we have deferred
making any examination at
this term of court. We have appointed
a committee consiting of
the foreman, C. C. Sartor, M. W,
Hobo and 1'. II. Jeter, who are t<
be present and see the settle.menl
and report at the next term o
court, at which time all public of
(iees will be examined.
[Just here were given names an<
witnesses against a number of met
accused of leading immoral lives
We refrain from publishing thei
names in the hope that there may h<
a mending of their ways.?Editor.]
It has been called to the atton
tion of the (irand Jury that a mini
her of young men in the City an<
County of I'nion are living in adul
terv, some mixing the races. W<
call upon them to mend their ways
if not, we will hand their name;
with witness at the next term o
court.
It has been called to our attention
that the cotton and stock ex
change, commonly known as "Th<
Bucket Shop," which is now ii
business in the City of Union is
ruining the moral and business in
terest of Union County. Therefore,
we pray that the Honorable
Maeheth Young, Mayor, and tin
Board of Aldermen of the City ol
Union, will not allow the operate r
of the said "Bucket Shop" to con
tinue.
We further pray that the sai<
Mayor and Aldermen bring al
gamblers and violators of law to i
more strict account.
We extend to Ilis Honor, also t<
the Solicitor and other officers o
the court our thanks for their conn
sel and courtesies shown us during
the term.
Respectfully submitted,
C. C. Sahtok,
Foreman
