ROMANCE AND TRAGEDY
IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
Groom While Fleeing From Brides
Parents Met DEATH

Columbia, S. c., Aug. Alt is rare
that a man marries a girl in spite of
parental objections and is a corpse
within less than twelve hours, without
the fundamentally of those whose ire
have been aroused by the accomplish
ment of end despite their objections
But such a mingling of romance and
tragedy has this week occurred in York
county of this state, not far from the
North Carolina line.
The incident happened almost with
in the bailiwick of the famous Squire
Baileys, who recently came very near
having his commission annulled as
notary public on account of the many
marriages he had performed for run
away couples.
1t was on Sunday evening last that
Squire McElhany formerly the inten-
dant of town of Fort Mill after
marrying one couple, was called upon
to perform the ceremony uniting Miss
Ella Ramsey and Mr.. j. r. Norman
of the village of the Fort Mill Manu-
featuring Company in marriage.
The young lady's parents had OPP
posed the marriage bitterly. The
young people having agreed went to
the squire ana were MADE one. Inence
they went to the home of the brides
parents and the groom met a fierce
storm. 1t is alleged that in the course
of the debate he cursed and threatened
the irate parents.
The upshot of it all was on the fol-
lowing morning the father of the bride
lodged a complaint with the town au
thorities. officer r. G. johnson was
detailed to arrest the young husband.
He took his bloodhounds and started in
pursuit. Learning that Norman, who
had been in the village only a few
weeks, having come from North Caro-
lima, had started out in the direction
of Rock Hill, he put the dogs upon
his trail. They followed him to the
banks of the Catawba river, where they
took to the water and going across,
lost the trail.
Johnson thought that the young man
was hiding on n cliff of rocks in the
river, but searching the cliff, he failed
to find him, and giving up the search,
returned to Fort Mill. 1t was not
long before the news reached him that
the body of a white man had been
found floating down the river, and had
been pulled ashore. 1t was identied as
that of Norman, and at last accounts
1t was still there awaiting the coming
of the coroner of York county.

PICNlCKERS SHOCKED
BY LIGHTNING.
Resident of EchOIs County Blinded
by a Shock.

Valdosta, Ga, Aug IA crowd of
picnickers at Blue Springs, near the
Rocky Ford bridge, were thrown into
a panic yesterday afternoon by a bolt
of lightning, which struck tree al
most in their midst About hundred
people were in attendance, and they
had been having a gay time. When
the storm came up they went to an
old shelter for protection from the rain,
and had hardly gotten under it when
bolt of lightning struck a big tree
within ten feet of them.
Thirty or forty of the party were
shocked, and bark from the tree was
scattered all over them. There was
much excitement among the crowd,
and many fled from the scene to their
homes.
A report from Echols county tells of
a curious freak of lightning there a
few days ago 1t struck the rods on
Sam Lightseys home, and burned them
in two in several places. Mr.. Lightsey
was standing in his door and was
knocked down by the crash, the light
binding him. He has entirely recov-
cred from the shock but it still almost
totally blind, and there are fears that
his sight viii be permanently i'm
paired.
A crazy negro. Sam Smith, got him
self in a curious scrape in the county
Jail yesterday. He managed to get
hold of the electric light wires and
gripped them with his hand. Then he
begun to turn around on his heel as
fast as he could, wrapping the wire
around his hand and arm so tightly
that it broke. The wire cut into the
flesh so deep that it required the serv-
ices of a blacksmith to cut the wire in
two. Smith fought like "A tiger while
the operation was going on, and sew
eral men had to hold him.
News reached here from Hahlra to-
day of the death of Mr.. n. M Mitchell,
Il prominent young farmer of that
place. He was taken with what was
thought TO be rheumatism in his Shout
der, but a closer examination showed
that he was suffering from an abcess
on his lung An operation was per-
formed as a last resort last Sunday,
but it failed to bring relief. His flu
neral took place yesterday afternoon,
Rev. w. w. Webb of Hahira officiat-
ing.
Little Benjamin Joiner Tinsley. the
3h-year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs. M. c.
Tinsley, died night before last. The
family moved here from Macon last
January and have many friends in
Macon and Savannah who will be sad
dened to know of their bereavement.
