Death of Mir, ". T. Hill.

Died on last Wednesday nigh ght OF
appoplexy, Mr.. w. T. Hill. His death
was a shock to his family and entire
surroundings. He was sick but short
while, but was able to talk to his fam

that he fully prepared himself. He
asked to be raised up, and just as they
started to raise him he said, Pm gone,
and he was dead 10 just few minutes.
He will be greatly missed. He was q
good man and tried to treat every bocy

henry Richardson and Wife IN Auto Wreck.

de1Yy hCn4tCSOn ana WUs IL ANU H1eSAs
The following account of a serious
accident which befell Mr.. Henry Rich
ardson while visiting his wife's rela-
tives in Georgia is taken from the
Times-Recorder, Americus, Ga:
while being driven at very high
speed the Buick car OF Mr.. Edwin
Sterne, Of Albany, in which he was
bringing party of friends to Ameri-
Gus, was overturned and badly wrecked
at 4:30 yesterday afternoon, all mem
bers OF the party sustaining painful
though not serious injuries. The acci-
dent occurred at the sharp curve near
Wells Mill, on the Lee and Sumter
county line.
The motoring party included, besides
MIR. Stere, Mr.. and Mrs. Richardson
of Sumter, S. c., who are visitors in
Albany; Mrs. Julian Clark and her
aged mother, Mrs. Clark, all OF Albany
MIR. Richardson sustained a broken
arm and was the most seriously injured
of the party, the others escaping with
painful bruises. Mrs. Julian Clark
was pa;afully cut upon the lips. Mrs.
Richsr ason, who was Miss Sherrie
Lewis of ALBANY, was the least injured
OF the party, and fastening to nearby
telephone called up Dr.. L. G. Council
here, who with Dr.. W. S. Prather,
fastened TO the scene of the accident,
a dozen miles away. Immediate at
teution was given the Injured men,
bers OF the party who had thus nirac-
ulously escaped, and they were sent
back to their homes.
Banker A. D. Oliver, upon hearing
of the accident, drove up from Smith
vile in his new touring car, which he
placed at the disposal OF the injured
party.
News of the accident created much
interest in Americas, where all of the
party are we'll known and have many
friends who will congratulate them
upon their escape.

NETTlE CASE REVERSED.

Z special to The Manning
Times from Oklahoma City says:
The committe on appeals of
the general conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, today rendered a decision
in the case of the Rev. S. A.
Nettles of Spartanburg, S. G,
reversing the findings of the
South Carolina annual confer
ence at Rock Hill and declaring
Mr.. Nettles was not guilty of
the charges preferred against
him. Bishop James Atkins is
chairman of the committee on
appeals, and, by a rule of the
conference adopted last week,
the same committee that receiv-
ed the case from South Carolina
conference passedupon it. The
committee found that the differ.
ences between Mr.. Nettles and
those opposing him were not ir-
reconcilable and that Mr.. Net.
ties should be exonerated.
The report Of the committee
was unanimous, although no
,, reference to it was made in the
conference. The committee is
supreme in it's verdicts and there
is nothing for the conference to
pass upon.
"Tne verdict of the committee
on appeals meets the approval
Of every member of the South
Carolina delegation" said DR.. J.
o. Wilson, of Greenwood. "The
committee was unanimous and l
have no doubt that the matter
has been definitely set at rest in
our State. No arguments were
made before the committee, the
matter coming up from the an
nual conference in the form of
briefs from the opposing Sides"
DR.. Wilson announced tonight
that the committee on confer.
ence boundaries had reached a
decision in the matter affecting
the South Carolina conference,
upholding the memorial from
the conference that it be divided
into two conferences. 1t prob
ably will be a week more before
the report gets before the gen
eral conference for consideration

The Shriners have Returned.

The great shrine meeting which took
place il Atlanta is now past history,
and every Noble is figuring how
he can make arrangements 10 save up
for the next convention which meets
in July of next year at Seattle, Wash
inoton. DO not ask 4 shriner if he
had good time in Atlanta, it will be
silly TO put the question. it would how
ever, be more proper TO ask him II he
has gotten over it. The writer has
witnessed number Of great pageants
of pomp and splendor, but never before
has he witnessed such Il magnificent
sight as he saw in Atlanta: there is no
writer who can desc: ibc with any
degree of accuracy the events OF this
glorious occasion, but the Noble who
STAYED at home simply missed the time
of his lie.

gaily appareled humanity, the natives
doing all in their power to make the
thousands OF visitors feel III home,

marching all the Time, aad yet no dis
order. Atlanta was the Mecca where
staid and digniiied men OF all profes-
sions, and vocat;ons assembled from
every state in the Union and Canada
to give vent to their Joy, and, they did

Too much praise cannot be given TO

each one was the same brotherly
and sisterly spirit.
All along the route crowds were at the
stations to bade the shriners bon Voy-
age, many almost shedding tears be-
cause they could mot join the boys"
We reached our destination without anv
mishap whatever, except once we
thought we had lost one OF our party on
ly to later 6nc him tucked away undera
table in the dining car: even one OF our
guests, the oldest buck of the bunch,
would not admit his WEAKNESS, he was
the first to rise in the morning and the
last to 90 to bed a. night. He saw ev-
erythinS, and tried to handle every
thing that was haEt; cable, although no
shriner himselfhe presumed on his boys
being shriners, and got all the fun
their was in shrinedom.
When on arriving in Atlanta Sunday
night, he feuDd the clubs, picture shows
and saloons wide open, and people dane
ing as if it we're Monday night, he
looked serious and soliloquized "this is
40 place for pious man like me-" but
before we went to bed about a. m. he
realized he was as impious as the rest
OF the sinners, and ready to tango with
the paroxided and calsomined bellies
who were parading the streets during
the "watcbful and waiting" stunt.
Then there was another old codger in
the bunch not far behind the other,
although he was not quite so daring,
and, instead of getting his optics fixed
upon the narrow skirted with artificial
hair and form, he was entertained by a
lady who could not wink at more than
one man at time, she was one-eyed
but did not care who knew it. AS to
the rest of the fellows it may not do to
even hint at their doings, because they
are members of the bible class striving
for prize and, their preachers feel the
grave responsibility, therefore, we
shall not add to their burden by ex-
posing their male lambs, but take it
from US, these good fellows who next
Sunday will be prompt at their classes,
never gave last Sundays lesson sing
lie thought, nor did any of them boast
of being active members OF the white
ribbon army, while in the Gate City ct
the South.
All things must come to an end, our
time came about midnight Wednesday,
(A,lanta time) which means o'clock
a. N. Washington time. But just be-
fore we left, the Meaningless were hon.
ored with call from Rev. and Mrs.
\. r. Woodson who formerly lived in
Manning, they were delighted to see
US, and especially the writer, because
they KNEW that he was sober, they
asked after almost everybody, and to
them they sent their love.
The return trip was made in good
time arriving home about Thursday,
1:30 p. m. aud it was here we parted
with the Charleston delegation who
like ourselves were little the worse
for wear by the time the train stopped,
and the parting, while sincere, was not
as boisterous as when we greeted them
on their arrival enroute to shrinedom.
We wish we could give to our readers
even birds eye view OF this great oc-
casion, but we cannot, the nearest we can
come to it is to recommend the reading
OF the magnificent splendor of the cor
onations of European crown heads, and
the mythical stories OF when Knight
hood was in flower.
