There can be no reason why any

convincing proof.

were allowed to cast ballots at more
than one precinct and some managers
of election called in outsiders to
count the votes. These reports are IN
the shape of rumors only, however,
and as far as can be learned tonight,
no man or set of men has planned to
bring these rumors to the attention OF
the executive committee.
The main fact of approximately l.
500 votes cast over of two years ago
has been looked on by some with sus-
picion, and from a member of the exc
cutiye committee it is learned tonight
that the committee will make re-
count of the returns tomorrow. All
action looking to a contest, it is said,
will depend on the outcome of the re-
count. What results a recount will
bring out are problematical. Some
Jones supporters have been heard to
say that it is possible that several
hundred votes will be thrown out,
while some Blease followers have
been heard to remark that recount
is but folly and they do not fear that
the results will be changed any.

The county record. [volume] (Kingstree, S.C.) 1885-1975, 1912-07-04
Shooting Affair Tuesday.

Tuesday afternoon about 8 clock
while the citizens of Kingstree were
congratulating themselves over the
peace and good order which had
prevailed in their midst throughout
the day, they were sensationally
aroused by the shooting of Mr. w b
Staunton in the rear of Mi.hous &
Jennings store on Main street, near
the depot, in which Messrs j +
Pierce and Fred Hodge were said to
be implicated. He was shot by Mr.
Pierce who is a fairly well-to-do
farmer residing near Kingstree, 65
years old, and first cousin of Mr.
Staunton.
1t appears that the three men had
been together good deal during
the day and in a spirit of good ma
ture indulged in joking and guying
each other over political matters.
This they were doing when the
shooting took place, as above stated.
The three men had gone to the
store to get some cider" of which,
it is said, they had drunk freely
during the day. Having finished
their drink they all stepped out in
the rear, and were still engaged in
conversation of a good-natured sort
when the revolver report was heard.
Neither of the men appeared to
be the least bit angry, and Mr.
Staunton hod no i'll feeling towards
either Mr. Pierce or Mr. Hodge, as
he so stated to the Record man while
under the care of DR. Gamble.
