home.
Mr. R F. Brown, a genial gentle
man from the Leo section. was a
pleasant caller at our office Monday
while in Kingstree on business. He
is one of the few men in his section
who voted against being cut off
from old Williamsburg county, and
says he still likes to hear what is
going on here.
Many of our citizens were sur
prised on coming out of their slum-
bers this morning to discover the
housetops covered with snow. There
was very little on the ground, as it
was too dry and warm toretain it. At
$50 rain started to fall, which later
turned into a mild snow storm. 1t
is said to be unusually early in this
section for snow.
Magistrate G w Davis wishes us
to state that he is enforcing the law
with regard to the burying of all an
imals or fowls which die from disease
in his vicinity in so far as such cases
are brought to his knowledge. This
is a new law and a good one. All dead
animals, fowls, etc; should be buried
or crenated as soon as possible after
death, and we trust that the author
tiles all over the county will enforce
it vigorously.
