BOY GETS HEAVY DAMAGES. Rock Hill, Dec. 16.?The case of Walker Hayes vs. the Manchester Cotton Mills and the Southern Power Company was tried in the York county court Wednesday afternoon and Thursday, being concluded Thursday night, and Friday morning the jury returned a verdict of $4,166.67 against each defendant, the plaintiff thus being awarded $8,333.34. The plaintiff is an eight-year-old ...V... ??

His left arm had to be amputated below the elbow as a result of the injuries. The boy, it is said, stuck his hand through an open window at the suggestion of one of his comrades. That "open" window was probably the strongest point of the plaintiff's attorneys. Lockhart Junction News. \ . . ??? Lockhart Junction, Dec. 16.?The old year will soon be numbered with the past and Christmas will soon be here. It does seem it comes so quick as we grow older. When I was a boy it did look to be a long time before Christmas came. The weather is beautiful at this time. We like to see fair weather if it is cold. There has been several fine hogs killed tround here. Spare ribe and sausage meat are now in season. Mr .and Mrs. R. L. White and little daughter, Bertha, went to Trough Shoals Saturday. Miss Bessie Kelly visited Miss Ora Pa'ge, who lives a few miles from Jonesville, last Saturday and Sunday. Mrs. M. A. Cunningham of Liberty Hlil S. C., is visiting her daughter, Mrs. A. L. Gault. I Mr. C. L. Gault is clerking for Mr. H. J. Hames at Jonesville. Mr. Joe F. Edwards of Abbeville is now at his son's, Mr. W. C. Edwards's, for a while. The public roads are in fine shane in this section. Mr. Lawson, the superintendent of the chain gang has done some good work around here, and if the farmers are all the people could arrange to keep off of the roads with heavy loaded wagons during the winter months, the roads would remain good, and I believe they could arrange to do most of their heavy hauling during the fall season. I met Mr. H. N. Johnson at the funeral of Mrs. Trccie Carter at Gil; , liad cemetery a few weeks ago and ^ he was glad to see so many of his old friends. Mr. Johnson lives at Monarch Mills but he had not been in this section of the county in a long time. This being near where he was born and raised, he talked very interestingly of his boyhood days., He says he takes The Times and has his wife or children to read it to him. He lost the sight of one eye when a boy and now he can't see well enough to read. He remembers passages of the scripture and can tell of every sermon he hears. Honor Roll of Mt. Tabor School.

C., Nov. 15th, 1912. Whereas it has pleased Almighty God, the Supreme Ruler of the universe, to call from earthly labor to the Celestial Home above, our friend and brother, Simpson Young, and while we mourn his loss, we as members of the Junior Order United American Mechanics, bow in humble submission to His will. Brother Young was a faithful member of our order, ever working for the uplift and upbuilding of the same, and while we miss him from this earthly shore, we believe he has gone to that home above where he will hear the welcome words, "Well done good and faithful servant, enter thou into our midst."

Considerable notice is given in the Associated Press dispatches this morning to the fact that a Masonic officer in Scranton, Pa., has been in stalled for the 50th time. The following dispatches appear: "Scranton, Pa., Dec. 14.?What is said to be a world's record for Mason ic incumbency is established by the installation of E. P.

"Charleston, Dec. 14.?At the annual communication of Landmark lodge, No. 76, William G. Mazyck was installed for the 26th consecutive time ps secretary." he record of the Scranton Masoi appears to have been so remarkable that President Taft complimentec him.
