went into the field for broomstraw
and Miss Gore was left with Mrs
Antwine's little girl. This little
girl was sent into the garden for
some leaves for the pet rabbits and
Miss Gore was seen no more alive.
Of course no one knows exactly
how the deed was committed, but
appearances indicated that the fol-
lowing is probably the manner of
events: The girl went into the
barn, taking a MANILA rope, which
formed the long rein of a halter.
Standing upon a syrup barrel, she
looped the rope around joist, and
tying the other end around her neck,
she jumped off the barrel. Death
was due to strangulation.
When Mr. Antwine went to feed
his horse, at 1890 o'clock, he opened
the barn door and discovered the
hanging body. which was then life
less. No cause has been assigned for
the deed. Why did this young girl,
just entering womanhood. hurry her
self into the unspeakable unknown?
She left letter, saying that it would
be better to kill herself and then
her name would not be in every
body's mouth; that no one would
ever know her trials and troubles.
etc. What troubles could have en-
tered this young life to cause it to
flee from the horror of worldly cx-
istence? Only God may ever know.
She tried to write to her father, but
left the letter unfinished. This father
is Mr. Henry Gore. VINO lives at Vlne-
land,N C. with the brothers and SIS
ters of the poor, dead girl
The deed was evidently deliberate
ly planned ,and carried out with grim
denomination. She told in the
morning that she had letter which
they could not see then but would
read in the afternoon; as she swung
low partition was in easy reach,
yet her arms hung straight down by
her side; she changed her clothing,
dressing in white all over before 60
ing to her self-inficted death. Let
us leave the judgment to One whose
knowledge is greater than ours.

Is II Fair?

What the Manning Times says
relative to an inveterate nuisance is
equally pertinent here:
We would like to ask, is it fair to
the merchants who have to pay a
license to do business and taxes to
county, State and town, to permit
takers to do business TOR the mere
pittance Of a days license? The
street takers blow in here from the
Lord alone knows where, and leave
the same night; they carry away
many dollars for goods sold, which
would be bought from our own citi-
zens were these Cheap Johns not
licensed to sell goods on the streets
We think council should consider
this matter in justice to those who
make up the towns support. 1t is
dill erent with the people Of the
county who have things they grow.
and raise to sell; these bring their
products to town, and in turn pat
ronize our local merchants, but
with the fellows that Come in and
go out nothing is left. but all is
carried away.

WATER WORKS AND SEWERAGE
Town Council Considers Matter
of Holding Election on Question.

Kinestree December 0:-Another
step which marks the progress and
development of this town was taken
last night when J Newton johnson,
city engineer of Florence, came here
and called the city fathers together
to discuss the matter Of water-works
and sewerage. Mr. Johnson,in very
practical and business.like manner,
set forth what it would mean, and
gave approximately the cost of sucn
a system as is needed to fill the re-
auirement, and the council, knowing
this matter had been under discus
sion for some time freely among the
citizens here, contracted with Mr.
johnson to make the necessary sur
vey and to estimate the cost thereof,
wien an election will be held to as
certain if bonds will be issued for the
furtherance of this very necessary
improvement.
Every citizen who is freeholder
here realizes that this is requisite,
and is only in keeping with the prog
ress of this community, and it is
thought that this step virtually
means that this town will at very
early date have water-works and
seweraqe.-News G Courier.
