Mad on the Jefferson hlffhway. This
le script ton. which Is verified by all
who hare visited the ro aid sacs. Is
;he town's main topic of conversation
?ud will be the town pas alp until the
mystery is solved.
This house, a concrete structure,
was built by J. B. A rant several
years ago. Mr. Arant and sife lived
there until Mr. Arant's death in Cam
den some ydars later.
The hoit?? was next occupied "by
I- I. Adams and family who lived
there until shout two years ai;o. W1I
liam Robert". Mr. Adam's sen, reports
that no unusual noises were . heard
while ibcy lived there.
M. A. Mangum. who next occupied
the house, says that he didn't hear
anything of this nature while he wasresiding
there.
Mr. Dowips, wlto Just moved into
the house two weeks ago. says "1
stayed there atone for the first three
flights. tis my wife was in the hospital
in Charlotfe. t heard these myg.
t? rious knocks each night, but - didnot
report them to anyone. >
"After my wife casne home, she
noticed the noises the very, first
night and naturally she was fright
ened. I tried to comfort her by tell
inp her it was the wind rattling the
doors and windows.
"In a night or two Rev. L. T. Gill.
Presbyterian minister, came to visit
my sick wife. He heard1 a knock at
the door aftd told tne to see who It
was. I went to thedoor, but nn one

the door. I came back and told Mr.
Gill I didn't see any one and that I'd
been hearing strange noises every
night sfnc I moved.".
Rev. Mr. Gill when questioned said
"I took my wife down to listen the
next night. We stationed several
men around the house.-hoping to find
out what was causing the no'se. The

the men outside saw nothing.
As townspeople began hearing about
these queer goings-on. many
went to listen and try to solve the,
n ystery. Mayor Jack Horton investigated
and after hearing the noise
was as baffled; as all the others, had
been.
B. T. Sanders, editor of the Pageland
Journal, called 'at the Bowles
mine and reported hearing the
knocking, first at the front door mid

epson for the noise advanced by '

Dr. O. A. Blackwell. drug clerk of

he rumors of mysterious noises at

Ime at the house and heard the

It's on^ of the reasons why I'm afraid

The more education I get (and I

more unhappy 1 get. I'll never forget
how I felt when I took my first
