on Thanksgiving Day. 1t is very un-
fortunate that the name of Calhoun
has long been associated with
the fighting of chickens, but the
principal reason for this is that the
gamblers coming from a distance to
attend these fights, (and they come
from all over the South, get off the
Seaboard at Calhoun Falls. But l
am sure that if these gambling con-
tests depended for their patrons on
the citizens of Calhoun Falls alone,
they would have been abandoned
long ago for lack Of support. 1t IS
even generally reported that at this
last fight there were at least two OF
Abbeville's most prominent citizens
lin attendance, men who are high IN
social, political and church circles
lOf course, they were only spectators
and nobody thinks for a moment
that they lost or Won any money on
the fight, but they no doubt gave
their countenance" to the affair. All
of which makes it pertinent to sug-
lgest that as long as the best people
of Abbeville Court House 60 to
chicken-fghts, the Abbeville papers
ought not to be too hard on poor
lbenighted Calhoun Falls for letting
la stray bullet loose or burning a few
clothes. , ..
On the other hand, MI. Greene, l
wish to appeal through you to the

House and County to help US kill
this dragon of lawlessness wherever
lit raises its head and. especially as
manifested in this fighting Of chick.

Dear Mr.. Greene
I have read with no little interest
the account in your recent Press and
Banner of the two unfortunate oc-
currences in our little town, and
while I am not at all in sympathy
with lawlessness in any form, wheth-
Yer in Calhoun Falls or elsewhere, I
think your reporter drew a rather
dark picture of the moral atmos-
phere of Abbeville County's "fron-
tier town." Of course, you and I I'M
derstand that there are a few law
abiding citizens in Calhoun Falls,
but any one at a distance, not know
ing all the facts in the case, and
reading the overdrawn account in
your paper, would think that Cal
houn Falls is really not a safe place
in which to live and that the. law
breakers ran the town. !
In this connection, I would like
to add that Calhoun Falls has re-
