SCOTTISH CHAPLAIN TO
PREACH SUNDAY

Major Robinson, an ex-chaplain
with the Scottish forces in Flanders
will preach in the A. R. P. church
Sunday morning at II o'clock. The
major was quite a militant chaplain
while serving with the Ladies from
He'll" and Brother Plaxco tells US
that it is worth going a long way
just to hear the chaplain read the
Bible, as he is a most impressive
scripture reader in addition to be-
ing a splendid sermonizer. During
the World War Major Robinson was
stationed, for a part of the time, in
Abbeville, France, whence our city
gets its name and he is very much
in the history of both
cities.

WOMAN SHOT BY
MARVIN FELL, DIES

Emma Madison, the aged colored
woman of the Cedar Springs neigh
borhood who was shot Monday by
Marvin Fell, white farmer of the
same section died early this morning
from the effects of the shots.
Judge Hollingsworth held an in
quest over the body this morning and
the testimony of Nathan Madison,
husband of the deceased, tends to
completely exonerate Mr.. Fell, who
states that he did not fire until the
woman had drawn a pistol on him.
The particulars of the killing, as
brought out at the inquest this morn
ing, are that on Monday morning Mr..
Fell went to the house of the Madi-
sons who were tenants of his and &C.
cured Nathan to help him stake off
an acre of cotton for Emma to chop.
After Mr.. Fell and Madison had stalk
ed off the cotton and returned to the
house the former told Emma that
he wanted her to chop his cotton
that day. She replied that she was
not going to do it. He then told her
that she would either have to do the
work or else leave his farm. This evil
IDENTIFY enraged the woman who be-
gan cursing Mr.. Fell, swearing that
she was neither going to work nor
move off his place. The woman's
husband, to prevent any further
trouble asked Mr.. Fell to go on away
and leave her. AS Mr.. Fell started to
turn to 60 the woman jerked a pis-
tol from under her apron and drew
it on him. He then pulled his pistol
and shot her in the arm. She turned
into the house and ran to an open
window in the end of the room by
which Mr.. Fell was to pass. When he
reached that end of the house he saw
the woman with drawn pistol pointed
at him. He shot at her again, the
bullet penetrating her abdomen. This
wound was the direct cause of her
death today.
Mr.. Fell came to. Abbeville this
and surrendered to Sheriff
Burts. Later in the day Judge Frank
B. Gary granted him bail in the sum
of $500.

AS an indication Of the interest
aroused by their expedition is'. the
fact that Mr.. Blair Rice of Belton,
owner of the Belton Towel factory,

the business men to back it up.
The fact that Mr.. Rice's plant at
Bolton has developed from $l4,-

at over 100000 within a. few years
is ample proof that towel factory
