Following is the letter from Messrs.

the clerk of court:
"Newberry, S. c., March %, 1912,
"Mr. Jno. C. Goggans, Clerk OF
Court for Newberry County, Newberry,
S. C.-Dear Sir: The law makes you
the custodian of the books Of registra-
ton. subject to the call Of whoever
may be the legally constituted board
of registration for the county. Some
days ago we left in your keeping the
books, with instructions to let no per-
son have them except the board as or
ganized with w. w. Riser as chairman,
believing as we did then, and as we
do now, that there was no other leg
ally constituted board. Having calmly
thought the matter over, and being un-
willing to inconvenience the voters OF
Newberry county, who. may wish to
become registered and disregardlng
any feeling of selfshness that we may
have in this matter, we have reached
the conclusion to withdraw the in
structions alluded to above. In doing
so we do not wish to be understood as
in any sense relinquishing our clear
title to the Office, nor in any sense to
-acouiesce in what we believe to be
clearly partisan action by the cover
nor in commissioning other than those
who had the endorsement Of the State
senate at its recent meeting: but only
to place no obstruction in the way Of
registering such voters as may desire
to obtain registration certificates.
Most respectfully,
"W. w. Riser.

Youngest of Outlaws Captured.

Hillsville, Va, March 29.-Friel Al
len, a blue-eyed STRIPPING of II, young
est of the eight Of the Allen gang, each
indicted for the five murders in the
Carroll county court house fortnight
ago, was taken late today in carriage
shed at the home of his father, Jack
Allen. eight miles from here. He
cheerfully submitted to arrest, and to-
night occupies a. cell in the Hillsville
iail, with his cousin, Claude Swanson
Allen, who surrendered without re-
sistance to the detectives yesterday.
Only sidna Allen, man of middle
age, and his young nephew, Wesley
Edwards, both bold mountaineers OF
reckless daring, are fugitives tonight,
They are the last of the outlaw band,
whose fussillade killed judge, sheriff.

VIII Resist to Death.
Friel Allen two days, ago deserted
the TWO men still at large and brought
back tonight their ultimatum OF de-
fiance. Both are prepared to resist un-
til death.
A fathers anxiety to have his young
est son spared a terrible death In the
mountains is assumed to be the cause
of Friel Aliens capture. Jack Allen
was not involved in the court house
shooting, but it is known that since
his son, Friel, joined the outlaws ne
has been endeavoring to advise him to
submit to the mercy of the law. Just
how the parent communicated with the
boy has not been learned.

BOB TAYLOR,

Bob Taylor is dead" And when
we read this headline in the daily
paper the page became blur
red and blotted with crystal. For
Bob Taylor was the earliest idol OF
our boyish heart; our first love"
among all the public men OF the
nation. His warm heart and fertile
pen fired the powder mine of our
youthful dreams and his poet soul
and matchless eloquence famed
the flame of an ambition that shall
never die until our own spirit seeks
him in a radiant Hereafter, which
Hope ever creates for human souls.
Bob Taylor loved the South with
every drop of blood that fed his
heart; and his country will one day
dive him monument of marble
for the life he lived. He was a
dreamer and a statesman, a rare
combination among men. We nev-
er knew his face or felt his hearty
handshake, but in our dreams to-
night we shall journey to Happy
Valley in the mountains Of East
Tennessee and place a wild flower
on his last resting place. His col
leagues in the proudest senate on
earth, In formal studied phrase, will
euloeize our dead hero and tell OF
his life and achievements, but they
may never dream that the sunshine
of his soul warmed the heart OF at
least one boy In this remote corner
of the earth o, who could ever
forget Bob Taylor's fiddle and bowl
But tonight the fiddle that made
him famous is as mute as the
harp that once through Terra's
Hall the soul Of music shed" His
brilliant wit will fash no more,
Death has unstrung his fiddle for
all time, the bow Is broken forever

W. G. Birchfeld's large barn was

This is quite a severe loss to Mr..

and dollars. How the fire originat-
ed is not known at this time. Mr..
Birchfield is in very poor health,
