eaten. After supper, about 10
O'Clock, the negro pretended to
see something in the yard, and
he and the white man went out
to see what it was. That was
the last seen of Hendricks alive.
The negro returned to the house
alone and forced the woman to
remain with him until next
morning.
James Hendricks moved from
Easley to Crow Greek only a few
weeks ago and was not well
known in that section, though
it was known that his character
was not of the best and not much
Importance was at first attached
to thestory of his disappearance,
this causing the delay in notify

Hendricks and his wife did not
get along together very we'll.
At this time TUESDAY night

Officers and several citizens are

of Easley, which occurred at
Asheville Tuesday night, June
%.
Mrs. Boggs was taken to Ashe-
vile on account of i'll health
about two weeks ago by her
husband and mother, so her

Miss Myrtle Flerlage, of Cincin.
natl. She was about 25 years OF

mirable traits. She Was a sim
cere Christian, being a member
of the Presbyterian church OF
Easley.
Mrs. Boggs came to Easley two
years ago as a perfect stranger,
but during her stay there won
many friends. Mr.. Boggs holds
a splendid position at the Alice
Mills, and besides large family
connection he, too, has many
friends throughout this county
who deeply sympathize with
him in this late bereavement.
Surviving are a husband, in
fant son of about three months,
a mother, father, and several
brothers.
The funeral was conducted in
the Pickens Presbyterian church
Thursday by Rev. Mr.. Waller,
pastorof the Easley Presbyterian
church, and the body was laid
to rest in the Presbyterian Gem
etery here.

bow in humble submission with
the earnest prayer. Thy will,
not ours, be done.''

Help Keep Down Forest Fires

We take this method to thank
the people in general for their
efforts to keep down fires on the
lands of the Carolina Timber 90.
and adjoining lands. The show
ers which are now arising along
this mountain range is proof
that it is of much value to keep
the falling leaves on the ground,
as this holds moisture. and soon
er or later will bring rain. The
leaves are also valuable to check
the rush of water: when these
rains come and let it into the
streams gradually. Since these
mountains are being protected
from fires it has already been
worth many dollars to the farm
ers in bringing on showers and
also checking the overflow of
streams.
Hoping the people may con-
tinue to assist in this work, as it
is of much value both to the
Carolina Timber Co. and the
citizens of this section.

Travelling Mems Items

The two following items are
taken from the travelling mems
page of the Greenville News:
j. T. Hutchinson of the Lips
.combe Russell company, who
makes his home in Eas,ey, is to
be seen now at most any uncer-
tain place. The reason for this
is the fact that our friend
Hutch" has purchased for him
self a Ford automobile, and is
now making his territory in his
new car. Hutch" finds work
ing the trade in local t territory in
an auto a great convenience and
likes it much better than the old
way of sitting around waiting
for the train to take him to the
next town. During this hot
weather the auto gives him a
chance to cool between stations.
The Pickens railway, between
EaSley ana HlcKenS, is making
some extensive Improvements
on their road. They have been
for the past few weeks filing in
all the trestles On the road from
Easley to Pickens. This will
put the road on a much safer
basis than it has been hereto
fore. Several of the travelling
men making the trip to Pickens
have been heard to remark that
they were really afraid to ride
on the road Oh account of the
trestles being Of wood and in
such bad condition. Therefore,
we are glad to see the improve
ments going forward,
