Some time after she had taken

Lett Several Plantations In 'Tr;ist to
Found Hospital.

A dispatch from Camden to the
Columbia Record, under date Of De-
ccmher Sth, gives the following very
interesting account Of some incidents
in the life OF Capt. John Burdcll:
Can't. John Burdell, one Of the best
known men in Kcrshaw county, who
was also we'll known in Richland,
Sumter and Fairfield counties. died
at his home in West Watcree town
ship on Thursday afternoon, Novcm-
bcr 3Oth, and was buried here on
Saturday following. Tho deceased
was over 90 years old at the time of
his death.
Capt. Burdell's career was a very
interesting one. He was born in
Sumter county and later moved to
Richland county, where he afterwards
became chief Of police in Columbia.
While serving as chief Of police in
Columbia. he figured very prominent-
ly in the we'll known "students' riot" "
He arrested n student at the Univer-
sity Of South Carolina, which later
led to a riot, when the student body
attempted to rescue the member of
the body from the city guard house
Mr.. Bnrdell placed himself at the
door Of the guard house and defied
the students to attempt to attack the
Jail The students made an attack
on Mr.. Burdcll, and it is said that he
OIL Of
fore he stopped the attack. This oc-
currcd before the War Between the
Sections, and was much talked about
at that time. He served as chief of
police in Columbia for twelve years.
and was chief Of police during the
war. lIo afterwards resigned and
sold his propert! in Columbia and in
vested his money in farming lands in
Kershaw county, which were very
cheap at that time. He held on to
his property in this county, which
later became very valuable. and is
now said to be worth considerably
over 100000.
Capt. Burdcll figured very promi-
nently during the radical period, cs-
pccially on "Black Friday" He rode
up and down Main street here at that
time and was largely instrumental in
preventing the negroes starting any
trouble.
Capt. Burdell left several planta-
t0ns in trust with the president of
the Bank Of Camden, ministers Of the
Episcopal and Presbyterian churches
and his son, DR.. w. J. Burdell to use
the proceeds Of the plantation to es-
tablish tho "JOhn Burdcll Memorial
Hospital for the Poor Of Kcrshaw
County," Among some OF the plant a.
tons that he left to establish this
memorial are the Isbcll and Harris
plantations.
Capt. Burdcll is survived by twr
sons DR.. w. j. Burdell. Of Lugoff
and Lmcs Burdcll. Of Savannah, ant
several sisters and brothers.
He figures very prominently in Ju
liam Sclby's "Recolcctions Of Colum
bia,' and book written by Mr.
Gibbcs, Of Columbia.

The negro has $50 males to every

somewhat lower IL the two Southern
divisions cast Of the Mississippi river,
whore the negro Is at home. Other
sections offer contrasts. In the New
England and Middle Atlantic divis-
ions, the proportion Of negro males
is less than the average, indicating,
probably, some migration to these
regions Of females for domestic SER
vice. On The other hand, in the East
North Central division and in all the

there are more negro males than ne
