When Duncan was Introduced lher

When Duncan was Introduced there
was little confusion. 1t was mani
fest that he had some friends IN the
crowd, but tnat there were others VINO

of Evans. Duncan declared Gen.
Earle, when he said there had been
no corruption, had closed one eye in
charity to one sad case Tney did
not wish 10 allude to 1t, bat that case
showed Gen. Elrle's contention TO De

Duncan referred to his legislative
record. He had always tried to do his
duty and had not shirked attacking an
evil wherever he had seen it. He
considered that the duty of every man
serving the people. When he entered
the race for United States senator be
had determined to show up the record
of this man (Egans)
The crowd became restless, and
Jim Jones, jumping up from his seat
on the stand. said: Listen to him as
long as it's right; but when it isn't
then let him down"
a Voice-Let the man speak.
Jim Jones-he can't talk here
like he has been at other meetings.
Duncan proceeded to speak of
Earle's cold calculation" in entering
the race only when he saw two Re:
formers IL the race, calculating on the
Retormers splitting.
Gen. Earle interrupted TO say thai
he fought as hard as any man in
South Carolina in 80 before the peo-
pie spoke. When they did speak he
subsidei, and supported the nominees.
Snell-What did you put this man
between you and Evaas for?
Earle have nothing to do with
him.
Duncan hauled out some legiSla-
tive records, showing that Evans had

Duncan-Where did you get tina.

to Evans.)
Evans did not bother myself to
mention your name.
Duncan, amid much talking aud
disquiet, concluded his speech by say
ing Lnat he crushed with scorn this
man (Egans) who resorted to such
methods to dishonor him.
When Duncan mad taken his seat
and the band played. he was called
back to answer the question OF Zeig-
Ter.
Z.igler-How much lumber did you
sell to the county commissioners of
Newberry?
Duncan don't remember.
