Col. Brai,sford Again.

Mr.. Editor:
saw in TIE Times of this morning
that A J. Ricbbourg has an efFusion
purportipg to be record OF his pension
board. Records are material truths
kept for reference, but my comrade
slips up badly whea he attempts 10
justify the paving OF pensions to WV:
Brailsfcrd and J. J. Ross on the ground
that they belong to the reserved Con-
federate army, for positively there was
no such organization as a reserved Con
federate Amy at all Their command
was the Stale troops distinct and sep
crate command; Only amenabie to the
orders of the Governor and could not
be carried out OF the limits OF the
State without his sanction.
Governor Brown Of Georgia. was re-
ouested bv General Joe Johnson ID al

operate with his army and this enabled
him 10 hurl Shermans hordes back up
on Tennessee. Brown refused and
Georgia was ravaged. A small onion
would contain the tears l shed for her,
no Gov. ordered their State troops TO
meet Sherman at their border.
This being so how could the pension
board with any knowledge of their
duties regard them as being entitled
to a copper of money placed il their
hands TO pay over to genuine Conseder-
atee soldier. Butlhey did pay these
two causing a loss OF $500 Confeder.
ate peDsion money. If they regarded
these two as being entitled 10 it then
why not al OF the State troops. There
are hundred more OF them in this
county, and the board ought 10 feel
that they are bound TO pay them too.
and 90 down in their jeans and get the
money. Now D. J. Bradham in his re-
ply asserts that these same two were
in the Confederate army but came in
late. And here is the. chairman and
one OF the peoSion board Of this county
paying Off State troops without requlr-
ing them to sign the tform OF applica.
tiou that the confederate signs, for II
they did, they would have seen readily
that they had never bsen Confederate
soldier, Bradham says there is no
Tur5evilie the pension list when his
name was next TO Bradhans in that
favored class A, and read by every
subscriber to The Times. Rlchbourg
says he caunot reply for Turbeville, as
he understands he has not yet applied.
Now did you ever see such d botch as
these two make of their pension beard
daty. Turbeville applied and vas
passed and published as pensioner.: buI
the truth Is be has not called TO: his
money, haviog some compeuctloa OF
conscience. The guilty ones ought to
feel that way and return the money.

Exnressions of Gratitude.

Our people arc so shocked and de-
moralized that will not wait for any
concerted expressions, but will hasten
to express In their behalf our gratitude
and thanks, to so many Of the physl-
clans and nurses and citizens Of Sumter
who came to our rescue last night.
With wires down and people buried 10
fallen timber and brick walls and no
body knowing how many were killed
and injured doubtless the reports which
reached Sumter were greatly exagger-
ated. Up to this time, Saturday after
noon. there are onlv three killed, Mr..
Beasley Davis, Mis- lara Bagget and
a negro porter. 1t is likely that this
will cover the death roll, unless it is
Mr.. Joe Graham Of Foreston. The six
or seven others injured will likely all
recover.
Sumter county is the mother OF CIar.
endon county and Sumter CITY is Man
ning's friend. Your good people
showed US last night that Sumter
hearts are in the right place. We are
unable to express how much we ap-
preciate this noble spirit.

MAYOR BRADHAM THANKS PEOPLE
OF SUMTER.
In behalf of our stricken town aud
the men who have suffered heavy loss /
wish TO thank our big-hearted Sumter
neighborS for their quick and hearty
response to the reported needs Of the
town of Manning. More than hund-
red automobiles bringing physicians,
solicitous friends, and even thought
fully detailed police guard, came from
Sumter as quickly as they could -rua- p,
Similar action to that Of Sumter
was taken by Mr.. r J. Alderman. ,oi
Alcolu, who offered 10 close us bic
lumber mill and send his force OF men
on his own train to help the people OF
Manning. - - {,
Our people are deeply touched by
this and while suffering heavily in loss
of buildings ard merchandise stocks.
and the heavier loss of three lives kill
I'd outright, and six or eight badly
hurt, we feel deep sense of apprecia
ton for the friendly Offices Of the peo'
pie OF Suu1ca.' and Alcolu. AMI closer
