South Carolina has no divorce
laws and she never had.
An unsuccessful effort was made
the other day to provide for such
laws 10 the new constitution now

that no laws are better than the
bad laws relating to divorces, which
burden the statutes of many States.

day, and we don't know when we

the hole and they are now levelling
up preparatory to generating,

morrow. Col. Munford, although a
