 The weekly meeting of the wil1lman- tic Rotary club was held at noon on Thursday with an attendance of 100 per cent. President Frank A. Foss an- nounced that the charter had been receiv- ed It was voted that the treasurer, Her bert Huber, be instructed to have the names of the fifteen charter members in- scribed on the charter. The treasurer was authorized to send $7.50 as the clubs apportionment for the fund for use Of the New England Rotary clubs at the convention at Edinburg, Scotland. Songs were sung under the leadership of Song Master Jay M. Shepard, and a group of visiting Norwich women were entertained with the singing of Poor Norwich, She Amt Got No Style" a well known Rotary song. The applause of the visitors might be taken as evi- dence that the song met with their ap- pruvaL President Foss stated that new mIrnbers could now be taken in as the charter had arrived and the club from this time will gain in membership. A motion was earned to change the day of meeting to Tuesday, the nour to remain at 12 noon. This action followed dis cussion of trouble arising when Thurs day afternoon half holidays go into ef- feet. Notice of the change Of meetings dates will be sent to other clubs after the meeting of next week. Charles W. Hill, secretary, was instructed to take up the matter of placards with the man. agen1ent of the shop at which rotary luncheons are held. If the owners per init, two cards will be hung at the eh- trance of the building announcing that Tuesday at 12 noon is the meeting time of the Willimantic Rotary club. It is believed that this information will bring passing Rotarians to the club gathering thus compensating for their absence from their club meetings in other cities The hotel question was also discussed no action being taken.

MAJOR" BRABHAM KILLED.
Former Bamberg Boy Shot to Death
by Negro Near Savannah.

The body of major" Brabham,
son of jeff Brabham, former resi-
dent of Bamberg county, was brought
to Mizpah Methodist church and in
TERED last Friday. Mr.. Brabham,
who was young man, was shot and
Killed some days previous near Sa-
vannah by negro whose name has
not been learned.
1t appears from what can be learn
ed of the tragedy, that Young Brab-
ham in company with another white
man, was engaged in raising hogs
on an island near Savannah. Some
of the hogs had been going in mys-
terious manner, and the two men
were investigating the affair and it is
said that they found one of the ne
groes who had been doing the steal
ing. In trying to get the hogs from
him, the negro suddenly showed fight
and was Immediately Joined by some
eight or ten other negroes who began
firing on them. Brabham was in
stantly killed. Reports as to wheth-
er his companion was injured are
somewhat vague, one report being
that his shoulder was broken by a
bullet from one of the negroes and an
other report being that he escaped
injury.
Mr.. Brabhams companion escaped
from the negroes, at any rate, and in
order to get to Thunderbolt, the near
est point, had to make detour of
several miles. A part of the distance
was covered with water forty feet
deep, and other parts with shallow
water. By Wading and swimming he
finally reached Thunderbolt the next
day, where he reported the affair and
secured help. It was about day
and half later when the rescuing
party got to the place where Brab-
ham had been shot down.
In the meantime the negroes had
escaped from the island and, accord
ing to the latest information, had not
been captured.
The family of Jeff Brabham lived
in the Olar section some years ago.
He moved to Georgia later, young
"Major" Brabham going to Savan-
nah.
