only one failure and that was for a
sum less than $1,000, and aside from
interested parties, we doubt if it was
known to dozen people. But all
this is from a financial standpoint of
view Today we have the healthiest
city in the state. There is very lit

 "No. no! my lady. The wood couldn't catch in the tfmel"
 For an instant a black film of des- pair seemed to fall on her and shut out all nature to her eyes. The surging of the blood in her head made her dizzy. and once again the prayer of the old memory rang in her brain:
 "oh to be God. and to be able to do thingsw

 The two feet of old thatch held down with nets and battened with wreack timber would flare like a beacon. Forthwith she spoke.

HUNTER IS CARRIED OFF
 TO SERVE HIS SENTENCE

Wade Hampton Hunter was yester- day afternoon taken from his cell at the county jail by Agent Bush, of the Henderson Lumber Company, at San ford, and carried to the lumber cons- pany's plant that he might begin the long sentence hpf ten years imposed upon him for the killing of Thomas Summerall in Vesuvius over . year ago.
 Since Hunter dramatically shot Sum- merall in a saloon in the northern suburb of the %city he has occupied the same cell at the countw Jail on the sec- ond floor. During his long imprison- ment he had been model prisoner. and both Day Jaier Pettus and Night Jailer McCord were yesterday very sorry to see the agent take their pris- oner away for his long sentence Dur ing his Imprisonment, Hunter has been found to be truthful. and as Day JaiIer Pettus states it: "The most gentle manly prisoner that I have had since coming to the county jail was mighty sorrow to see him leave"
 Before leaving Hunter thanked both MT. Pettus and Mir. McCord for the many kindnesses which they had shown him while he was a prisoner awaiting the outcome of his trial and the final appeal to the Supreme Court of the State.
