THE CAMDEN BONE YARD.
EdItor CHRoNIcLE.

Editor CHRONICLE;
The undersigned, as are all residents
of our little town, is interested IN its well
fare. We have recently abandoned our
swaddling clothes and assumed the airs
of city. New business houses and res
dences have been erected; improvements
have been made on our streets, and our
city fathers, aided by all citizens, seem
inclined to the general improvement Of
Camden.
Now l want to direct the attention Of
those in power to one feature that has,
so far, been overlooked, and that is the
Camden "bone yard" This bone yard
lies in the heart of town, and is adjacent
to the homes of Mayor Henry F. Stigall,
Marshal d. J McRae, DR.. f. G. Hud-
Mrs Harriet Farmer, and others.
The bone yard has an individuality of
its own. It's place wherethe depraved
nature of mar is exhibited in all its hid
eousness. On no other place do we hear
men (alleged to be honorable citizens)
using the vilest language in the hearing
of ladies. The bone yard also renders
the public streets impossible, and on all
public days Camden is in the hands and
at the mercy of several hundred cursing,
drunken men. racing and shouting on
the square and streets.
Such a condition of affairs is not toll
Grated in any other town, and it should
not be tolerated here. The attention of
the municipal authorities is called to the
fact that there are any number of places
within convenient proximity to the city
limits both convenient and available for
horse traders and it is hoped the gentle
men composing the board of mayor and
aldermen will give this matter due con
sideration, and that the first Monday in
January, 1897, willses the bone yard re-
moved from the limits of Camden.
