NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS

During the past few weeks
there have been many changes
in the mailing lists of all country
newspapers, The Herald includ-
ed. In making these changes
some errors have undoubtedly
crept in. It has been difficult to
correct all the dates on the mail
ing lists, so many have paid up
back subscriptions. The Office
record, however, is correct and
as soon as possible the dates on
the mailing lists will be fixed up.
Meantime The Herald asks its
subscribers to exercise a little
patience. We strive to please
and will make everything right
just as soon as we possibly can.

Caught IS 1-o-Pound Bass.

magnificent spotted bass weighing
thirty-five and one-half pounds was
caught by W. r. Hil!en of the Carolina
Savings bank off Sullivan's island

Charleston Evening Post. The big fish
was landed at about o'clock, after
only couple of minutes play. He bit
a piece Of mullet on an ordinary bass
hook. at the end of whiting hand
line. This bass is probably the larg-
est that has been caught In Sullivan's
island surf for several years. In fact
we'll known fishermen aver that they
do not know of a fish as heavy by
many pounds as the one caught by Mr..
Hillen that has been pulled out of the
part of the Atlantic ocean which
washes the beach Of Sullivan's island.
There is no doubt as to the weight
of this fish. His weight was taken on
two scales, each registering it as thir-
ty-five and one.half pounds.
