Il Lancaster County Young Man
Seriously Hart IN CEdrlesfon.

MIR. Zed Robertson, Of Oak
hurst, left last Saturday for Char
lesion having received information
of q serious accident that had be-
fallen his son, Mr.. Blake l.. Rob-
ertson, pharmacy student. He.
was accompanied by Mr.. Threstt
of Kershaw. MIR. Robertson
telegraphed on his arrival that
his sons condition was improved
and u letter since states that he
liz considerably bstter. Blake
Robertson is a promising and
popular young man and his many
friends are hoping and praying
for his speedy and complete re-
covery. The Charleston Post of
Friday gives the following ac-
count of the accident. 1t is in
error, however, in stating that
Mr.. r., comes from York county,
near Rock Hill. His home is at
Oakhurst in this county. The
Post Says:
"Mr. Blake l.. Robertson, a
student of the pharmacy depart
ment of the South Carolina
Medical Coli, go, who was in
jured on Wednesday night
in alighting from q car on the
corner of Rutledye avenue and
Beaufain street, is reported to be
in serious condition. He was
rem owed from the general ward
at the city hospital, where he
was placed on Wednesday night,
to the Riverside infirmary this
morning.
Mr.. Robertson is young man
Of most exemplary habits and
pleasant manners and is one of
the most popular members Of his
class. When he was hurt he
was Oh the way to the room Of a
classmate OH Rutled dge,avonue to
teke part in "quiz." The ex.
act way in which he happened
TO be hurt is not positively
known He may have attempted
to amp off the car in motion and
was perhaps thrown by a Jolt of
the car before he was ready to
step off. At all events, he came
in contact with tree or pole
which bruised his face and the
sudden impact must have caused
him to fall back wards, striking
his head on the roadway pave
ment, causing conclusion Of the
brain. Mr.. Robertson's eye sight
is not very clear, which may &C.
count for him running into the
tree or post which bruised his
face and forehead. He must
have been hurt about 8 o'clock
and was later found by police
officer and sent to the city hos.
pital at $50 o'clock. He was
unconscious when be was pick.
ed up aud he has not yet recov-
cred consciousness.
Mr.. Robertson entered the
medical college last October. HI
comes from York county, near
Rock Hill. HIS people are prom
inent in that section. They have
been notified Of his condition and
until his father is heard from
and special instructions received
the Charleston friends Of the
young man will do everything @
possible for him to alleviate his
suffering and restore him to his
former good health.

letters and a note book in is
possession, giving his address,

Il appears. moreover. that Cabot was
arraigned before a justice OF the peace
for killing elk out of season. that he
pleaded guilty, and that the skin of the
elk was declared forfeited TO the State.
The game warden on the States behalf,
has also put in a bill for $50.
In his decision Comptroller Tracewell
says II does not appear that the skin
declared forfeited and the specimen in
the exhibit at st. Louis are the same.
For that reason he advises that pay

has been thrown on the question.
And this will be done.
