SUSPECTS OF MURDER
ARRESTED IN MONROE

Abraham Lincoln and one Boyd
were arrested Wednesday at Monroe,
charged with the murder of Ganson
and Laney Funderburk, double kill
ing, which occurred in the Dudley Sec
tion several weeks ago. One of the
parties was working on the Seaboard
yard at Monroe, while the other was
employed on farm at Mineral
Springs near Monroe,
In February Ganson Funderburk
killed Steve Seegars after they had
had previous difficulty in which Can
son mashed Steve's face with a rock.
Ganson was brought to Jail and at
the March court, few days later,
Ganson was released on $500 bail for
appearance at September court.
Several weeks ago two strange
negroes appeared near the home of
Ganson Funderburk and Laney Fun
derburk. By agreement shooting or
target practice was engaged in. 1t is
alleged that while the Funderburk
negroes were inspecting the target
that the strange negroes shot them,
Ganson being killed instantly and
Laney dying of his wounds. The MUIR
derers disappeared. Sheriff Grant has
been working on the case for some
time, making one trip through North
Carolina; another time he went
to Monroe. Those who did the double
killing had been recognized by anoth-
er party who saw them in company
with the Funderburk negroes. This
party went with the sheriff on both
trips to identify the accused but they
were not located at those times.
1t it believed that those who COM
mitted the crime are relatives of the
dead Seegars negro who was killed by
Ganson Funderburk. Stephen Seegars,
the father Of the dead Seegars was
suspected of being implicated. He
shortly thereafter moved over to Ker-
shaw county. Sheriff Grant went
there yesterday to arrest and bring
back Stephen Seegars.

PATRICK

The Patrick graded school came to
| close Tuesday night, when a very
interesting program was rendered by
the school children to an audience
which taxed the capacity of the large
building. Every part of the program
was carried out without single er-
cor, which showed the careful and
painstaking training by the teachers.
Stephen M. Huntley, graduate of
the University of South Carolina, was
principal and had as his assistants
his sister, Miss Alexia Huntley, and
Miss Marie Treacy of Cheraw. They
all worked hard in the school room
and the pupils have made great pro-
gress during the term. The exercises
Tuesday night were preceded by the
bt tccalaureate sermon Sunday after
noon at the Methodist Church by the
Rev. w. S. Myers, using as his sub
ject: Character building and choos-
iES companions. He delivered a
fcrceful and interesting sermon yet
81 ,ple enough for the smallest school
c. Id to understand. Monday night
tt music pupils of the school gave
music recital that would have done
honor to town many times the size
OF Patrick. Mr.. Huntley and Miss
II antley are both graduates in music
AL have done excellent work in
tt lining the pupils in music. 1t is
understood that the trustees have re-
elected all of the teachers and it is
hc ped that they will decide to accept
tEc school for another term, which
VII meet the approval of all the pa
tt ms and students.
The Rev. 4. Ii. Morrison of Yemas-
seo spent few days in and near Pat
rick the early part of the week. Mr..
Morrison was pastor of the Methodist
