giving the animals a habitat some

Or. CANDLES Arm Broken.

DR. W G Gamble sustained a
serious accident on Wednesday
of last week. While getting
into his buggy to make a pro-
fessional cali, his horse made
a sudden start and threw him
with some force against q post
nearby. His right arm struck
the post, causing fracture
at the socket and another lower
down. DR. Gamble. went to
Charleston and had the arm
examined under the X-Ray
with the result allowed stated.
While he is able to be up the
injury is very painful and he
fears that he may never fully
regain the use of his arm.
Few men in town or county
are N ore useful than Dr. Gamble
and his many friends hope soon
to see him fully recovered.

at Scranton.

Editor County Record
Kindly give ME space in your
paper to reply to the clipping from
the Florence Times published in
The Record last week under the
caption, "rrouble in Scranton" in
80 far as it relates to the automobile
incident and the case in court re-
sulting therefrom. The article
from the Florence Times touching
this affair is misleading and l de.
sire to correct the misstatements
made and give true version of the
occurrence.
On the day referred to was re-
turning home frcm my Office in the
town of Scranton, a distance of a
quarter of a mile, in my automobile,

past three years in general practice

Magistrate Lee.was frightened when

my automobile to low gear, reduc-
ing the rate of speed to not more
than two miles an hour. At this

statement in the Florence paper

this mans business for the day came
to our knowledge, and it is regarded
of interest sufficient to publish.
