ALMOST WRECKED CAR

Lexington. June l0-While Mr..
Sam P. Roof and party of friends
were speeding along in his handsome
automobile on Sunday night about $
o'clock on the Augusta road about
six miles above Lexington they dis
covered number Of fence rails piled
up in the road just in time to save
the terrible accident. 1t is believed
that it was diabolical attempt to
wreck the automobile and the matter
is being investigated. If the guilty
parties are caught it goes without
saying that they will be prosecuted
to tho fAlleSt extent. That any one
should attempt to take the lives Of
persons in such manner can hardly
be believed. So far as is known this
is the first attempt to wreck an auto
mobile in this part of the country.

In sickness, if a certain hidden
nerve goes wrong, then the organ
that the nerve controls will also
surely fail. 1t may be a Stamache
nerve, or it may have given strength
and support to the Heart or Kidneys.
1t was DR.. Shoop that first pointed
to this vital truth. DR. Shops Re
Storative was not made to dose the
Stomach nor to temporarily stimu-
late the Heart or Kidneps. That old
Fashioned method is all wrong. DR..
Shoop's Restorative goes directly to
those falling nerves. The remarkable
success of this prescription demo
nstrates the wisdom of treating the
actual cause of these failing organs
and it is indeed easy to prove. A
simple five or ten days test will
surely tell. Try it once, and see! Sold

Mail Orders Filled

the notes the money was forthcom-
ing. He told such a straight story
that there was no thought of turning
him down." said one of the bank
cashiers soon after Richardson was
arrested. and we would have lei
him have almost any amount he
might have asked for" Another
strange coincidence is that all OF
this money was secured within less
than 90 days.
Richardson belongs to the relig-
iouS sect known os the Unknown
Tongue. and has contended from
the first that he would pever be tried
that the Lord would take care of
him and would supply the needs of
his family. He believes now that
it was the work of God that brought
him safely through. instead of the
work Of his brother, it is said. Since
being in Jail he has been visited by
various persons from the upper part
of the State-all believers in the
Unknown Tongue" He has read
the Bible every day continuously
and has prayed without ceasing.
Deputy Sheriff Miller says that
Richardson has been an ideal pris-
oner. He has not been sick day
during the entire period he has been
in Jail and left the picture of health.
He would not partake of any hog
meat and was very careful about his
diet. He would at times refuse to
eat anything for more than a day.
He refused to the last to have any,
thing to say to the newspaper men,
for publication, although he would
talk freely on different topics; but
before he left he stated to your cor
respondent that he wished to thank
Sheriff Corley and Deputy Sheriff
Miller for the kind treatment he had
received at their hands, and that he
would remember them always for
what they had done for him.
Neither Richardson nor his broth |
er would have anything to say about
the future plans Of the former, and
they left, supposedly, for their re-
Spective homes. 1t is rumored that
5. L. Richardson confided to some
Of his friends around the jail that he
to enter The evangelistic
:ield.

s. L. RICHARDSON FREE
BROTHER SAVES HIM

Lexington, June l5.-S. L. Rich.
ardson, the white man from West
Union. vino has been confined in the
jail here since November % last
year, was yesterday released from
the Jail, free man, his brother, Mr.
E. L. Richardson of Greenwood
having arranged everything satisfac-
torily with the banks and other in
StitutionS from whom he is alleged
to have received money by various
methods and means. 1t is said that
it took something like 81 500 to Sc
cure his release, and Richardson's
brother, who is young man of
pleasing address and an ex-represen-
tatlve in the legislature from Green
wood county and man of seemin-
ely powerful influence, has worked
continuously on the case since his
brother was committed to JAIL To
him S. L. Richardson should be un-
der lasting obligations for securing
his liberty.
The charge against Richardson
was that he secured various sums of
money from different banks in this
State by forging the names of forg-
ing the names of prominent men to
notes. tt name of Mr.. w. L.
Brissey, known the State over as
being the lumber king Of Anderson
county and a man of considerable
means, was used extensively. The
first to detect that these instruments
were forged was the Citizens bank
of EateSburg. from which Richard
son secured $1,000. Next was the
G lima National bank of Columbia
+ ON which he secured at one time
$1,000 and at another $1,000. 1t
is said that he secured several hun
drel dollars from the Farmers
bank Of Central and also from an
Augusta bank. Besides securing
this money, it is alleged, he dispos-
ed OF stock and other valuables that
were under mortgage, it is said.
1t is stated that a number of 9TH
ers were caught in his trap. and that
had the matter not been settled
other warrants were waiting for him.
E peculiar circumstance connected
with Richardson's career is the fact
experienced little difficulty
IN uring money from the banks.
