LEAPS TO DEATH.
Mrs. Mary Robertson Kills Self at
LandO.-TieS Rock in apron

Chester, July 2S.-With the strings
of gingham apron tied around her
neck and a seven pound rock secured
in the body of her apron. Mrs. Mary
Robertson, wife of Sam Robertson,
Ieaped to her death from the bank
to Is feet of water to the mill race
at the Manetta mill. After much
diving by Fred Hefey the body was
recovered 35 feet down stream. The
village of Lando, in Chester county,
was stirrd by the affair
Mrs. Robertson left Wylie Camp
bells house at Lando about ? o'clock
apparently in state of great nervous
ness. She borrowed an apron from
Mrs. Campbell which was afterward
found tied around her neck at the
bottom of the stream.
Mrs. Robertson is said to have made
threats recently to kill herself but
the villagers paid little heed to her
On yesterday her husband left for
Columbia to stay some time and this
seems to have precipitated the deed.
She is said to have clainld that she
had no friends and that the only and
dearest friend in the world was going
and she thought the suicidal course
the speediest way to end her suffer
ing.
She removed her shoes and had
she not left this clew it might have
been week before her body would
have been found. When she leaped
into the stream the noise attracted
considerable attention from some
boys that we're fishing further down
the stream. They Immediately made
an investigation, which led to the
discovery of the shoes on the bank.
The alarm was spread and an i'm
mediate search Instituted. Mr.. Heaey,
an expert diver, was near, and he be-
gan diving and soon brought the body
to the surface. This made the 18th
person that he had pulled from the
water.
1t was at first thought that the
drowning had been the result of vio-
lence on the part Of some outsider
and Sheriff D. E. Colvin and Coro-
mr. ]. Henry GLADDEN., along with
Deputy c. Y. Young, were rushed to
the scene in an automobile. Coro-
ner GLADDEN. made a careful investi-
cation of the body after empaneling
a jury, with G. B. Heath as foreman
He could find no marks Of violence
save a confusion on the nose Which
was attributed to its striking root
or rock at the bottom of the race.

DIR. WALLACE BACK.
Is Now Ready to Complete His His
tOricaI Work.

Spartanburg Journal, 18th.
DR.. D. D. Wallace, professor OF
economics in Wofford college, has re-
turned after several weeks research
work in the great libraries of Wash
ington, Philadelphia and New York,
in collecting further data for his
manuscripts on the life of Henry Lau-
rens which he proposes to have pub
lished in book form within the next
few months. DR.. Wallace in speaking
of his visit and researches said this
morning that he found the libraries
we'll filled with Southern historical
sketches and in fact there was more
information about the life Of Henry
Laurens than he could possibly use.
DR.. Wallace has his work about com
pleted and his visit was made for the
purpose of securing data concerning
only the latter part of the great
southerner's life which he could not
procure south of Washington.
Students of history are greatly in
terested in the life and works OF
Henry Laurens and the contribution
of DR.. Wallace will no doubt be one
of the popular works of history pub
lished within recent years. Henry
Laurens was the greatest southern
statesmen during the revolutionary
period. He was president and practi-
cally ruler of South Carolina during
the first months of the revolution.
