Camp Kearney, Cal, Sept. ~.
To The Forum: This is from one
who used to live in Fargo and was
member Of Battery A of Lisbon
until it was mustered out. Shortly
after that / came out to California
and am now a member of the
United States national guard. j have
already served three years and now
am in the reserves.
The war department has moved us
three times since we were called
out in March. The first move was
from Woodland to San Francisco,
Presidio, where we were equipped
with a new outfit of clothing. We
were then sent out on guard duty
at Point Richmond looking after the
Standard Oil works. From there they
sent us to Fort Mason. where the
main part Of the company stayed.
was one Of a detail sent from there
to do guard duty in Berkeley, where
they make airplane engines. We
stayed there until we were sent here
and this is our off place" where we
jump from the u. s. to France.
write this letter to The Forum
in hopes Of having it printed so that
1t will be seen by my. many friends
whom have not seen or heard from
since l left. / hope some Of them
will see it and write to me for l am
far from home and among strangers.
The people out here are not as
friendly as they are back home. Out
here one has to carry his bed on
his back when he goes out on a
ranch to work and sleep where he
can unless he should be so lucky as
to get work for some one who has
not been out here long. The meals
are served out on the back porch and
the ranchers will never take one to
town on a Saturday night. If man
quits they even then will make him
walk and carry his bed. OF course,
lots of the men on the ranches have
only one blanket and one change or
clothes. The majority Of men out
here will only work long enough to
get what is called California stake,
that is ten dollars.
Another thing that sounds funny
to the people from the east is to
hear one say two bits instead Of
twenty five cents. Here it is two
bits. four bits, and six bits. One will
never hear one say bushel, for every
thing is bought and sold by the
pound.
thank you for the time that I
have taken up, but would like to
hear from my many friends. l don't
know how to reach them, not know
ing their addresses. Some Of them
are in Company B, Fargo. Major
Grafton had been promoted just be-
fore l came west.

Ducker-Black.

Last Friday evening at six o'clock,
Miss Marie Ducker and DR.. Thomas
Black, Jr., were quietly united in
marriage at the Baptist parsonage,
Rev. W. R. Mcmillan, pastor of the
Baptist church, officiating. Only a
few of the near relatives of the bride
and the bridegroom were present at
the ceremony. After receiving the
congratulations and best wishes of
those present, DR.. and Mrs. Black
motored to Denmark, where they
caught the Seaboard train for Savan-
nah, for a few days honeymoon.
The bride is the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. George Ducker, and is a
most lovable young woman, who
numbers her friends by the score.
DR.. Black is one of the city's profes-
sional men, and is very popular. with
everybody. The bride and bride
groom returned to the city the first
of the week, and are now receiving
the congratulations of their hosts of
friends.

L. ID. C. Chapter Meeting.

The first meeting of the new year
was held with Mrs. w. P. Jones and
Mrs. J. C. Lewis, hostesses, at the
home of the former, on Tuesday az
ternoon.
Quite a goodly number braved the
inclement weather, the rooms being
comfortably filled, thus inspiring the
president to even greater and better
chapter work during the coming year.
Much business was despatched and
the treasurer reported the chapter in
fine financial condition, having about
s175.OO to it's credit in bank after
the china and silver recently pur-
chased, had been paid for.
A delightful literary programme
followed. Mrs. J. F. Carter read a
splendid paper on Lees influence and
rank as a man. A most interesting
sketch written by Mr.. J. D. Fielder
of his recollection and personal ex-
periences during the last ten days OF
war. was read by Mrs. NJ. E. Aver.
The programme for Lees birthday
was read, after which salad, course
with coffee and whipped cream was
served.

Small Blaze at Cope.

Cope, Jan. 12.-Yesterday morn
ing about II o'clock the house of
Otis F. Smoak, occupied by W. Muse
Ritter and family, was discovered on
fire. The bucket brigade was soon
on hand, and as the fire was in the
loft ladders had to be used. The roof
was damaged by the tearing away of
quantities of shingles, and the wealth
erboarding had just about burned
through before the blaze was put out.
The wind was at high velocity, and
had the fire gotten to the open prob
ably the whole of that side of town
would have been wiped out, as there
were five wooden buildings right in
the path of the wind.
Mr.. Ritter's household goods were
pretty badly damaged in being hur-
riedly carried out.
Mr.. Smoak, who lives several miles
from here, happened to be in town at
the time, and said he had some in
surance on the building. 1t was not
learned whether Mr.. Ritter carried
any insurance.

PRESENTNlENT.
Grand Jury Makes a Number of Rec
concentrations.

The following is the final present
ment of the grand jury:
ITO His Honor, Judge Frank B.
Gary:
I'VE, the grand jurors, make the
following presentment:
I'VE have passed on all Of the bills
given US by the solicitor and return
ed them to the court.
I'VE have visited the various couG-
ty Offices and find the records and &C
counts kept in a neat and satisfac-
tory manner, with the exception of
the records in the office of the judge
of~probate, and we have also inspect
ed the Jail and premises and found
everything well kept.
1--WE have received a complaint that
the roads in the upper part of the
county are badly in need of work.
1T has been called to our atten-
ton that the public highways in Lees
school district have not been worked
in over two years.
eve have appointed a committee
composed of the following jurors: A.
McB. Speaks, J. ]. Smoak, and W. D.
Coleman, to secure the services of a
competent auditor to check up the af-
fairs of the office of judge of probate.
eve have the following recommen-
dation to make:
THAT the old barn in the Jail yard
be repaired and used by the county
chain gang as commissary; that the
communication road tax be used in the
school district where it is collected
as provided by law; that the super
visor be required to comply with the
law in regard to printing statements
of the county's finances in the county
newspapers; that timber carts with
centre drag foot be debarred on
public highways; that the supervisor
show cause why that portion of the
public road between Bamberg and
Barnwell, just below Hightower's
mill, has been condemned; that the
wood pile in the front part of the
court house be moved to the yard in
the rear.
1--WE thank the court and court Of
ficers for the courtesies shown us dur
ing our deliberation.

Foreman"

On a Juror Hunt.

Judge Gary is a most amiable gen.
tleman, and an excellent Judge, but
he acknowledges that he does not like
unnecessary delays, and he especial
lv likes for jurors and witnesses to
stick around the court house, so when
they are wanted the, court won't have
to wait on them. Monday afternoon,
all members of the grand jury were
in their places except one. A bailif
was sent after this delinquent grand
Juror. The bailiff did not return i'm
mediately, and the court instructed
that another bailiff be sent after the
first one. The second bailiff tarrled
longer than the judge thought neces-
sary, and the Judge instructed the
sheriff to go and get him. And then
the sheriff, the two bailiffs and the
Juror were all out When the judge
thought the sheriff had had time to
return. he instructed the clerk OF
court to go out and get all Of them
and bring them into court. The clerk
of court lost no time in carrying the
Judges orders into execution, and
about the time that the judge was be-
ginning to show signs of taking the
bull by the horns" and going after
what was by this time nearly the
whole court, everybody arrived, and
the court proceeded to move. How
ever, the juror in question was not
we'll, which probably explained his
delay in getting to court, and he was
excused from duty at this term.
