We print this week President Gar

1t has been reported in Newberry for
the past week that Mr.. J. M. Seigler,

died in Florida, where be has been en-
ploved for some time past as an en-
eineer. We hope the report is not true.
NJ. Thos. Abrams while returning
home from town on last Sale-day met
with serious accident. His mules ran
away with the wagon in which he was
riding and threw him out. He sustain
ed some very bad bruises, and for a
time his condition was critical. He is
now greatly improved, and will be all
right soon.
When the up night freight reached
Prosperity Wednesday night between
9 and 10 O'Clock it was cut of wood.
The engineer called upon MesSrs.
Wheeler & Moseley for assistance who
walked up their drayman and sent him
out into the woods for load. There
is very little wood along the road now.
Whether it is because the road refuses
to pay enough for it We do not know
but have heard 80. Tne engines are all
being converted into coal burners; and
this may be the reason that the authorl-
ties have allowed the supply Of wood to
get so low.
