The election which was ordered to
be held in Donalds Township on the
question OF annexation to Anderson
County has again been postponed on
account of technicalities. The Govern
OF ordered an election some time ago,
but the Commissioners of Abbeville
refused to provide for holding it, be-
cause they never received notice OF the
election in time to advertise it accord
ing to law, because the boundaries
we're not defined in the proclamation
and because no place to hold the cleo
ton had been appointed. Aproclama-
tion will be issued ordering the election
for July 9Th, and an endeavor will be
made-to meet all the objections men
toned. The Commissioners have to
appoint place for voting.
