So I returned, and considered all the
expressions that are done under the
sun; and behold the tears of such as
were oppressed, and they had no COM
forter; and on the side of their OPP
pressors there was power; but they had
no comforter.
Wherefore I praised the dead which
are already dead more than the living
which are yet alive.
Yea, better is he than both they.
which hath not yet been, who hath not
seen the evil work that is done under
the sun.
Again. I considered all travail, and
every right work, that for this a man
is envied of his neighbor. This is also
vanity and veXatiOn of spirit.
The fool foldeth his hands together

Pickens officers have received
word from Greenville to be on
the lookout for negro who has
bad scars on both cheeks and nc
mustache. 1t is said the negro
is travelling toward the noun
tains of the upper part of the

negro is wanted for.
Greenville, April 25. Sheriff
Hendrix Rector and a posse is
securing the upper end of Green
vile county and part of Pickens
in search Of a negro, who on
Saturday night; is alleged to
have entered the home of a
white woman near Travellers
hest, in the upper section of
this county, and after commit
ting an awful crime, robbed the
house. The negro is said to
have called in the afternoon and
talked to tie woman and asked
where her8husband was. He is
said to have retired to the woods
until dark and then entered the
house. A negro suspect was ar
rested early this morning by the
sheriff, but he was not the man,
according to the woman. She
said the negro had bad scars on
both cheeks and no mustache.
The man caught had the scars
but a mustache. He also proved
a good alibi. Reports are that
the citizens in the upper part of
the county are aroused and
several have called at the Jail to
know if the right negro had
been caught, promising a visit
in case he was. Sheriff Rector
announced that he would not
bring the negro here, but would
carry him to Columbia, in case
he catches him.
