Mrs. Lou Pattison, wife of Mr.. M. j.
Pattison, died Wednesday evening, the
end inst, after an illness of only few
hours. Her remains were buried the 4th

leaves husband and ten children to
mourn her loss. The entire community

their sore bereavement.
Mr.. Perry Hill was shot by Mr.. Lewis
]. King at Fair Play, the End inst, in
tlicting painful wound in his right arm,
the ball passing through his arm just be-
low the shoulder. They had swapped
horses few days previous to the difficulty.
1t seems that King had become dissatisfied
with the trade, though he had never said
a word to Hill about the matter. Hill had
gone To Lavonis, Ga, that day on busi-
ness and was to return in the evening.
King, having heard he would return
through Fair Play, armed himself with
pistol, saying he would kill him on first
sight. When Hill got back to Fair
Play he stopped at Mr.. r. IL. Maret's
store and was standing by the fire warm
ing. Mrs. King, having heard of the
threats her husband had been making.
had gone into the store to talk over the
matter with him. While they were talk
ing King walked into the store with pistol
in hand and shot him without q word Of
warning. King was placed under arrest.
Mrs. King and his brothers succeeded in
compromising the case by agreeing to pay
him SlO0.
Mr.. Claud E. Maret has been suffering
great deal for the past two weeks from
an attack of rheumatism OF the eye. He is
having it treated by DR.. e. 3. Webb, of
Fair Play, who is a specialist in such dis
eases. 1t is improving and it is hoped he

WEDNESDAY, FEB. 8, 1898.
Good Officers Retained.

The Augusta Chronicle, of the ith inst.
says: "We are glad to know that in the
adjustment of the Atlantic Coast Lines
control of the Charleston and Western
Carolina Railway Mr.. w. j. Craig, Super
intendert Anderson and Auditor Mills are
retained practically in their same Offices,
though Mr.. Craig will be known as gen.
eral freight and passenger agent instead
of general manager, and Mr.. Mills will be
cashier instead OF Auditor. Mr.. Ander-
son continues to be superintendent. We
regret to know that the auditing depart
ment is abolished, and that several OF the
clever young gentlemen employed there
will probably be thrown out. though some
of them may be rendered positions IN
Wilmington. This is the position that
Mr.. Craig has admirably filled for years.
Recently the title of general manager was
added, and this the new owners OF the
road have abolished, continuing simply
the Office and title of general freight and
passenger agent, Mr. Craig has proven
himself an excellent railroad man, and it
VAS not doubted that the purchasers OF
the property would avail themselves OF his
services. We congratulate Messrs Craig,
Anderson aud Mills, and also the Allan
tic Coast Line upon retaining their servi-
ices."
