THREE NEGROES
SHOT TO DEATH

Douglas, Ca, Nov. 18-This city is
quiet tonight following the lynching
of three negroes early this morning
and no further race trouble is antici-
pated.
1t was Deputy Sheriff W. F. Wig
gins, who was held up by the mob
while taking the three negro pris-
oners to Ocilla, instead of Fitzgerald
as first reported, and forced To turn
over the prisoners Then the negroes
were lined up and shot, according to
reports brought back to this city.
Sheriff Tanner and a relative of
Pearly Harper, the prominent white
man who was killed by the negroes
Wednesday, addressed the mob that
was in front of the Coffee county
Jail just as the city's electric lights
were turned off at l o'clock this
morning. 1t was while they were
holding the attention of the mob that
Deputy Sheriff Virgins spirited the
three negroes out the rear door and
started on his trip to Ocilla.
Seven miles away the deputy found
the road blocked, an automobile hav-
ing been stopped across the highway.
As he slowed down his car was COM
pletely surrounded and h els said to
have been forced to deliver the ne
groes.

TWELVE WOMEN VOTED IN
ABBEVILLE
(Spartanburg Journal.)

(Spartanburg Journal.)
In spite of the fact that Abbeville
Court House has never had any su-
perior educational advantages and
does not appear to care very much
whether it ever have or not, it must
be said that in point of intelligence
and patriotism it's leading citizens,
particularly among the women, rare
ly fail to measure up to their oppor-
tunities. 1t is all the more remarkable
therefore, that anything like the fol-
lowing, which is taken from The
Press and Banner, could have hap
pened in that town:
"The women in Abbeville are TAX
ing their h9nors calmly, only twelve
availing themselves of the privilege
of voting. Every woman on the
street Tuesday was supposed to be
armed with ballot with which to
save the country, though a Greenville
street lady, when asked if she was
going down to vote, replied: "No.
Don't tell anybody, but I've lost my
registration ticket. I've looked in
my husbands Bible, and the top bu-
reau drawer, and l can't find it, so,
of course, I can't vote, but wouldn't
let husband know it for anything"
So she hurried on to the meeting of
the Merrie Matrons."
Twelve out of population of some
thing like six hundred, more or less,
is nothing to brag about, but it shows
that the women of the Court House
are headed in the right direction:

1t is noted by the Abbeville Press
and Banner that the Morning Bridge
Club was entertained last Tuesday by
one of the loveliest ladies in. that
town "at a very pleasant meeting" "
end thats delightful refreshments
were served" We have not the least
doubt that the meeting was pleasant,
whatever the ante, and that the re-
freshments were all that appetite
could have wished. But why was the
meeting held Tuesday morning in
stead of Monday morning? We as
sumo that the Morning Bridge Club is
club that meets in the morning OF
every secular day, in which case Mon
day morning would seem to be utter
ly wasted.-Spartanburg Journal.

former pastors and members will be
invited to attend. There are few, if
any, of the founders living-Jacob
Miller, who was one of the first of
the members, and John Robert Will
son, and Milledge Galphin and host
of others who set out on this great
adventure have all passed away; but
their work goes on. DR.. Toy is no

THE BAPTISTS IN ABBEVILLE

Fifty years ago next January, the
second Sunday of the month in 1871,
the Baptist Church at Abbeville was
CONSTITUTED" as the saying is, by Dr.
C. H. Toy, one of the most learned
Professors of Furman University, as
sisted by the Rev. A. w. Lamar, of
Atlanta, at that time Secretary Of
Missions for the Baptists of South
Carolina. The original members Of
the church were Mrs. Stephen A..
Brazeale and Richard P. Quarles. 1t
looked like hopeless undertaking;
but the handful of sincere people who
responded to the call for service has
grown into a multitude, and the little
church on a back street in the village
has been replaced by a great estab-
lishment on the main street of the
town, and instead of two members
the church now numbers four hum
dred
The Press and Banner says that a
committee has been appointed to pro-
vide for an appropriate observance of
the semi-centennial of the church,
that it will be made the occasion of
a general home coming, and that all

ADVERTISEMENT CORRECTED.

In an advertisement of the City
Market in this paper, by mistake Of
the printer, the price of Loin Roast
was quoted at so cents per pound
when the price stated in the copy was
80 cents per pound. We make this
correction in order that the people
may know that the City Market is
keeping up with the procession by
giving good meats at proper prices.
Their place on South Main street is
model of neatness, and they are
none the less always accommodating.
If you have not tried them, it will be
worth while to- give them an order.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1920
FINALLY, BRETHREN.

The Abbeville Medium now as
sumes lofty ground (by words only)
in the matter of personalities. We
trust that it will improve in fact, be-
cause we cannot say that the prac-
tice pays the Medium. Perhaps the
Medium will learn that the way to
avoid personalities is to begin by not
resorting to personalities. If the Me-
dunn believes that we have given it
enough advertisement, Te shall of
course not impose further advertise
ment on it. The whole thing was free
anyway. We charged nothing for it,
and we thought we were about to
help the Medium "Come Out Into the
Open" editorially, after long and
somewhat painful silence.
We trust that nothing we have said
makes matters worse than they were
before for the old lady, and that she
may now get ready for Thanksgiving
without further molestation. In order
to show that we are not grouchy over
the matter, we will join in conclu-
sion with the Editor and the "force"
(meaning brother Clark, as James F.
Rice would explain) in singing that
old familiar refrain not now carried
in the .expurgated editions but en-
bodying as fine a sentiment as ever,
"Pull for Abbeville or Pull Out"
