Allan ana Co., charleston, ). C.-11-c.
Sergeant Clarence Dinkins has
just returned from France, looking
fine and healthy. He received a
wound in his right arm. He leaves
this week for Ft. Mcpherson.
We heard week or more ago that
the town would make weekly inspec-
tions of all premises, but so far we
haven't seen the inspector. Maybe
this work will start next winter, or
when cotton goes to 35 cents.
Mr.. r. D. Cothran returned to
Manning last evening from Brookneal,
Va, where he has been conducting a
tobacco warehouse this winter. Mr..
Cothran says tobacco is still selling
high. His little daughter Ruth ac-
companied him home.
Among the soldiers returning to
Clarendon this week are many mem
bers of the 371st Regiment. This
regiment with the exception Of the
commissioned officers was composed
of Negro soldiers who saw hard SER
vice overseas for many months. These
men made an enviable record, many
of them receiving decorations. Among
these was Will M. Oliver of Summer
ton, who wears the Croix de Guerre
given for bravery in action.
On the afternoon of February II
1919, Mrs. Ellen Tucker May, wife
Of Mr.. Frank May answered the cal
to higher duties, and quickly "slippet
away" Mrs. May was home loving
woman, devoted to her family, atc

She was kind and thoughtful neigh
