KILLED BY PISTOL
Young Jewish Lad Killed Saturday by
Accidental Discharge Of Pistol in
Hands Of Playmate.

Abner Saul Blaoker, 15-year-old
son of Mr.. F. Blacker, died Satur.
day night at 2::30 o'clock in the
James hospital at Hamlet as a re-
suit of a pistol shot wound re.
ceived at $3.50 Saturday afternoon.
The accidental shooting of this
bright Jewish lad caused a eenu-
inc feeling of regret to pervade
the town, for our townspeople
have most kindly regard for
parents of the youth.
1t seems that Abner and Fred
Hendley, son of Mr.. E. A. Hend-

River Bridge and Roads.

State Highway Commissioner
w. C. Wilkinson, Of Charlotte,
was in Rockingham Monday. It
is understood he instructed that
a new survey be made leading
from the highway near Cognac
into the new Hoffman-Ro Rocking
ham road. The entrance of the
Rockingham road into the Ham
let-Hoffman road was more or
less in a depression and almost
at right-angles, SO that the Rock
ingham road would almost seem
to be a side road instead of a
standard State highway, the same
as the road leading on to Hamlet,
The change will make the roads
forking to Hamlet and to Rock
ingham equally prominent.
1t is believed that the contract
for bridging the Pee Dee river,
connecting Richmond and Anson
counties, will be let in the early
Spring, and that a concrete road
will run all the way from the
river to the Scotland county line,
with exception of probably a four
mile gap, r5s.
It is also very probable that
the contractor building the hard
surface road from Rockingham
to Hamlet will be awarded
the contract of extending the
hard surface street at The Rock

HOW MANY BALES?
Columns Of Post Dispatch Open To
Those Wishing To Make Guess OF
1922 Richmond County Cotton

Crop.
Due to the fact that this is the
first year of really heavy boil wee.
vii infestation, it is an uncertain
quantity as to what the total cot
ton crop of Richmond county will
amount to. The 1921 crop totaled
1851 bales as against 29,470 in 1920,
and 1879 in 1919.
Some OF our local predicterS say
this years crop will not be over
10000 bales, while still others insist
it will be around $1,000. And so
let's put our guesses down in black
and white, and see who in the
county is the best judge of what
the yield will be.
