A regrettable error appeared last
week in our report of the death
and burial of Miss Olive Matthews.
Her death occurred Thursday. Nov
ember 2, and the interment the fol-
lowing day, Friday. 1t was one of
those unfortunate blunders that
happen in every print-shop, imper-
ceptible before the paper is printed
and conspicuously prominent when
it is too late to correct them.
Members of the local bar held a
meeting and agreed to ask Judge
Copes to excuse the members of the
petit jury from attending the court
of common pleas, there being no jury
cases to be tried at this term of
court. Judge Copes having complied
with their request, the county will
be saved several hundred dollars ex-
pense and the members of the jury
considerable time and trouble.
Mr. and Mrs D M Erwin returned
home last week from Richmond, Va,
where the former had been under
medical treatment for some time.
Mr. Ervin's many friends are de-
lighted to know that the operation
he recently underwent was entirely
successful and that his health is bet
ter than it had been for years. This
is gratifying news to every one here
and we truly hope that his recovery
will be permanent. as there are few
if any more generally esteemed clti-
zens of Kingstree than Mr. Erwin.
With pain and sadness we learn
that our friend, Mr. Jas G Dobbin,
is again seriously i'll at Richmond,
Va, and it is feared that an opera
tion will be necessary. Only a few
weeks ago Mr. Dobbin spent a week
here and he looked so well and SEEM
ed so cheerful that his friends were
pleased to think that he was enter
ing upon long period of good
health, after his plucky fight against
disease and ill-health. We hope to
hear soon that his condition is much
improved.
Death of Miss Grace JerVey.
