Looked Suspicious.

Says the Waxhaw Enterprise: ::
Three suspicious characters at large
in the Belair community Saturday
occasioned the rumor that they we're
deserters from one of the military
camps. One white man and two ne
groes wearing high collared over
coats buttoned up tight around the
throat were chased by citizens for
several hours Saturday and were
finally left in a cane brake just
above Osceola. The actions of the
men in seeking to avoid close OBJ
servation and the fact that they wore
heavy overcoats all through the
warm day were very suspicious.

they may be, fall upon them as a bene-
diction to be at all times their comfort
and their strength" so reads the reso-
luton, adopted by the Red Cross war
