ming, Wednesday, Jan. p.

We have received a telegram from
Nh. Charles McCatferty saying that
he will be in Manning next Wednes-
day, January 21st, with q carload of
excellent horses and mules These
mules and horses will be sold at auc-
ton, and the sale will take place, re-
gardless of the price bid for stock, or
the state of the weather.
Mr.. Charles McCaferty is we'll
known throughout this county, and in
fact throughout the State, and it is
useless for US to say that the bare an
nouncement that McCafferty will be
in town next Wednesday is sufficient
to draw an immense crowd to town.
Everybody who has any desire to buy
a horse will be here.
The business transactions of this
gentleman are always characterized
with fairness and honesty.
Farmers and others desirous of OBJ
tanning great bargains should not fail
to attend this sale.

The Dead Past is Buried.

ORANGEBURG, Jan. 9.-The marriage
of Mr.. VIM. Bozard to Miss Emma,
the daughter of the late Mr.. William
Boyet, is announced. The groom, it
will be remembered, killed Mr.. Boyet,
some time ago, and was tried and ac-
quilted. It was hinted then, that Mr..
Boards engagement to the daughter
of the deceased, caused, or had much
to do in bringing about the difficulty,
as the latter was much opposed to the
match.
The death of Mr.. Boyet under these
most distressing circumstances, broke
up the engagement, but the "dead
past has buried its dead" and the
young man was last week married to
the daughter Of the man he hso
slain.
It is fair tc add that the entire evi
dence showed that the killing wa:
unavoidable on the part of Mr.. Bo
Zard.

Augusta, for instance, along the proposed
west-east route, it might be found advan-
tageous to defect the line first to the town

communities near the direct course inter

strong lift, long lift and lift altogether

ton.

SUMTER, Jan. 7.-Conductor Hop
good, of the local freight which runs
between Sumter and Lanes, met with
a very serious accident while attempt
ing to couple two freight cars at the
Coast Line depot here this morning.
The engine was backing train OF
cars into the side track to take up
box car standing there. The conduc-
tor called to the brakeman to come
and couple the car, but not coming at
once, the conductor attempted to do
the coupling himself. The coupling
pin had dropped on the ground be-
tween the rails, and in STOPPING to
pick it up, be was struck by the end
of the train that was being backed in,
and was thrown with his body be-
tween, AID both legs crossing, the
rails. Before the train could be
checked one of the trucks had run
entirely over one leg and broken the
other. His head and body were also
badly bruised.
As soon as possible he was removed
to his boarding house, and DR.. A. j
China, surgeon for the road, was sum
moned. It was found necessary tc
amputate the left leg just below the
knee, but the right which wa:
broken was put into plaster bandage!
in the hope of saving it. This after
noon the doctor pronounced his pa
tient doing well, and he is in hopes h'
will pull through all right, though the
injuries are of very serious nature
Capt. Hopgood is quite youn!
man, about twenty-five years of age
and very popular with the officials o
the road. His unfortunate acclden
has created much concern among hi
many acquaintances here.

commissioners took their seats yestel
day, and at once entered upon tn
duties of the Office. Col. J. Y. Walls
was retained as clerk Of the boar(
as was Dr.. J. a. Mood as physician t
