Editor The Manning Times:
Crops are looking more prosperou:
since being revived by some sun shine
and considering the hold General Greer
| had, the change is remarkable, and
few sprinkling rains will not do an!
harm. Tobacco is curing up as well a:
can be expected.
Miss Mamie and Warren McCullom
are on visit to relatives at Bishopvllie
Mr.. Hugh McColluT and Miss Well:
of Alcolu attended our Sunday schoo
here last Sunday evening.
Mrs. w. E. Lavender is visiting friends
at Scranton.
1t is with regret that l report thai
Mr.. J. W. Fleming is quite i'll.
The tobacco warehousemen are nov
among the people. Messrs. G. NJ
Mason and r. D. Clark of Manning
passed through this section few days
ago. Both of these gentlemen are pop
ular with the people.
There is a very sad case over in
these parts, young man by the name
of Mellette, son of r. S. Mellette lately
deceased, has been giving his family
great deal of trouble and anxiety, tc
the extent that they have been forced
to call upon the law officers for pro-
lection. Mellette acts as if he were in
sane. but there is much method in his
madness. Magistrate Turbeville and
Mr.. T. NJ. Beard arrested him a few
days ago, and before being taken he
said he would die before leaving his
room, but he didn't die and they fetch
ed him out of the room too. Mellette
will have to be put in jail.
Mr.. Editor, stand steadfast and un-
movable and by your earnest interest
for the welfare of the people, your
righteous cause will win. The people
have, before now looked to your edi-
torial columns for guidance, and you
have always shown an honest loyalty
and zeal for their interests. Keep on
warning them against the expressions
of the cotton seed oil combine, and the
100 per cent lien sharks. B.
