can, the eighteen-year-old boy who, on
last Saturday night shot his stepfather, P
L. Cannon, will be released from the
county Jail tomorrow, bail having been

Millican is still in the county Jail, but
will be released in the morning, all of the

Stanyarne Wilson, who represents the
defendant, made application before
Judge Hydrick several days ago and the
bail has been fixed. There will be no
difficulty in securing the necessary
amount of the bond and Millican will be
at liberty in the morning.
The killing of Cannon by Millican is
still the topic of conversation and the
application for and the granting of the
bail in 80 short a time after the killing
has caused some little comment. Sym
datby for the most part in this section is
with the defendant.

Pension Fraud Case to be Tried.

The much talked of Colleton county
pension fraud case, which brought such
an avalanche of criticism down upon the
head of Solicitor JerYey when he mol
pressed it at the request of the Colleton
county pension board, has bobbed up
again and will be brought to trial at the
term of court opening there on the first
Monday in July. Solicitor Jervey has
taken the matter up with the attorney
generals Office, the Colleton grand jury
having revived the scandal ina present.
ment, and that Office will send represen.
tative to Colleton in July to assist Mr..
Jervey in the prosecution of the case.
The case is that against Warn, Ulmer
Dubois and others, accused of presenting
dead and fictitious names to the county
board, which innocently certified them
on the state board, which sent the money
to Clerk of the Court Padgett, who paid
it over to the accused men. The amount
involved is only $500, but the mol pross-
ing of the case on the endorsement of the
county board on the ground that the
money had been returned was indignant
ly received, although the judge is said moi
to blame the solicitor in the matter. The
fraud was detected by the clerk of tht
court, one of the names brought in being
that of man of his section he knew .tc
be dead.

H0nOrs for q Bamberg Boy.

The West Point annual, "The Howit-
zer," is just out. In it the biography Of
James Wilson Riley, commonly known
as "Jim" or "Pat'' from Bamberg, s. c.,
is interesting. Among other things is the
following:
"'Pat' became accustomed to playing
soldier at the South Carolina Military
academy and has been going it ever since.
Even as tim he was frantic spoonoid,
for he believes that one cannot devote
too much time to the choice Of help
mate who in after life is to sew on all his
buttons for him. As natural conse-
quence he can't be excelled as writer of
billet doux, and already has the record of
more proposals than any man in the class.
Was not preceded by any relatives, but
has a young and ambitious kinsman
against whom he has grudge; so he says
he is going to advise him to adopt the
military profession. He claims to be q
descendant of the Hon. Wilson Whiskey."
Mr.. Riley was one of the cadets who
spent his Christmas vacation in Washing
ton last Christmas. He will graduate this
year, and The Howitzer tells of number
of honors he has won as cadet. Among
them he. is head literary editor of the
bright and interesting cadet annual

Death of John M. Rhoad. Member Company &
1st S. 6, Y.

It is with sadness that am called upon
to report the death of an old friend and
comrade, John NJ. Rhoad, who died on
the 10Th of this month. John was men,
Der of my old company, Company G, 1st
S.C.V., and was good soldier and one
of our best citizens. knew him from a
boy and ever regarded him as bosom
friend. He was my neighbor, school,
mate and playmate, and the friendship
formed during our boyhood days lasted
until his death. Whenever he came to
our little town he never failed to come to
see me, and I am sure that I greeted no
other with gladder heart.
I rememember him, too, as christian
gentlemen. From the day of his conver-
sion at old Cattle Creek the true Chris
tian spirit was ever manifested in his life,
and to the end was faithful to the confes-
sion made when we were boys together.
The members of our company are fast
passing away and soon old Company 6
will be no more. Our ranks are growing
thin and the few that remain cannot
tarry much longer, and soon all will have
passed "over the river and rest meath the
shade" Let those of US who are left so
live that we may hope to meet again when
the war days are DER and our work is
finished. j. b. HUNTER.

ceived check for 44,493s3 from the
Southern Railway Company in settle
ment of the amount of the judgment OF
court, costs and interest, in the case Of

miles east of Yorkville, on September 8,
1908, and was killed.
The amount originally sued for was

verdict for s55,0OO, which was subse-
quently reduced by Judge R. G. Watts,
who presided at the term of court that
heard the case, to $4,000. The case was
appealed to the Supreme Court, and that
tribunal sustained the finding of the
lower court, handing down its decision
several weeks ago. The plaintiff was
represented by Messrs. Legare & Holman,
of Charleston, and W. B. McCaw, of the
local bar, and the railroad company by
Mr.. C. E. Spencer, also of the local bar.
The check was the largest ever present
ed to either of the local banks and was
paid by one of them, the Loan and Sav-
ings, to Mr.. W. A. Holman, of Charles:

that they were only allowed to carry

question was then brought up, If rural
