A deep groan fell from his ss9, and

indictment handed the and jury
today when the federal court Of the
Western district convened was one in
which the government charges Camp
bell Courtenay. 81. John COurtenay,
Ashemead Courtenay. Edwin r. Frost.
Henry Rutledge Buist and Francis j.
Pelzer with conspiracy to defraud the
government. 4 separate bill charges
Campbell Courtenay with perjury, and
two additional bills charge st. john
Courtenay and Campbell Courtenay
with violation of the income tax law
Judge II. II. Watkins explained the
first bill to the grand jury by saying
that when two or more persons agree
or conspire to commit any offense
against the United States, and that
one of the party does any act to ef-
feet the object of such agreement or
conspiracy, then all were guilty Of
conspiracy. The indictment, he said in
part, charges these men, as officers
and directors of the Courtenay Manu-
featuring company of making n fraud
ulent income tax return. In the case
again Campbell Courtenay, charged
with violation of the income tax law,
it was alleged that he omitted from
his return any profit from the sale of

Mrs. A. ]. Sproles,
Greenwood, S. c.
Dear Mrs Sprolcs:
Your letter to Mrs. Swindell together
with clipping from The Index-Jour-
nal has been handed me by Mrs. Swim
dell. Thanks for the same. | will give
you the facts in reference to Mr..
Gaines. He was dismissed from the
homc February 10th by action of the
executive committee after trial. He
was charged with violating the rules,
immoral conduct, using profane and
vulgar language in the presence of the
nurses and matrons, and having boot
leggers" visit his room and make ar
rangements to take him to certain dis
reputable places. 1 ran two out Of his
room on one occasion and told him
time and again if he persisted in his
course of conduct he would be called
before the executive committee to an
swer the charges. When he was call
ed before the committee and the chair
man stated the charges, his reply was,
IL haint heard word you said" and
when the chairman raised his voice
and repeated the charges, he made the
same reply. He could hear, but he
took this plan of playing deaf not to
answer the charges. His disregard Of
the rules and his persistent refusal to
comply with my request TO cease visit
ing such places was cOndoned and
overlooked time and again and finally
there was nothing left for US to do but
dismiss him. His statement in the
clipping is not true. He was not "sus-
pended for sixty days for going over
town." because no y.teran has to get
permission to visit the city. AS to hay
ing no money, / sent him his pension
$4,000, less $4.00 he had borrowed to
go home on and when he acknowledged
the receipt of the pension, said he had
d good home and would never come
back: yet in a few days | had re-
quest from MIN 1Or clOInlnS, cue, anu
replied and told him he was no longer
an inmate of the Home and could not
get the clothing, etc, so | was some
what surprised when he drove up and
demanded TO be taken back. He did
not ask to spend the night. He will
not tell the truth.
We are trying to make this a Home
in every sense of the word, where the
veterans can spend their last days in
peace and comfort, but when men
come here who have no respect for
themselves or their comrades and 9TH
ers. there is but one thing to do for
the good of the Home and that is to
dismiss them.
We cordially invite the editor of The
Index journal or any other citizen of
Greenwood to call at the Home any
time they may be in Columbia and in
spcct or investigate the Home and its
management Will be glad to see them.
Yours very truly.
