The two women ran out to a neigh
bor's house. The negro pursued one
of them some distance and then
came back to the house and made
efforts to catch the other woman,
striking her in the head. The negro
stumbled over a wagon body in the

The alarm was given shortly after
by one of the women, who had
reached a neighbor's house. and
searching parties secured the vicin-

on the scene. Parties have been

In publishing the scholarship honor
roll of the Dillon Public schools two
weeks ago the name of Lucindie Be
thea should have appeared but was
unintentionally omitted when the
copy was prepared. The Herald makes
this explanation in justice to little
Miss Lucindie.
1t is hard to make the reading pub
lie understand that communications
must bear the name of the writer.
We do not want the name for publi-
cation but for Identification. Last
week we received communication in
regard to a marriage. but the COM
was unsigned and as we
did not have time to verify the cor
respondents account of the marriage
the article had to be left out. Un-
signed communications will not be
published. They must have the name
OF the writer.
