A Horrible Threat.
Dillon Herald.
It is bad enough for Editor Sharpe,
cf the Lumberton Robesonian, to
persist in writing it "Dillon, S. C."
and for the sake of peace in the fam
ily we are willing to orerlook the in
sinuation, but when he writes it
"Dillon county South Carolina," for
bearance ceases to be a virtue, and if
we ever catch him across "the line"
what we'll do for him will be a. plen
ty. Two years in the South Carolina
Legislature is mild punishment for
such an offense.

that the signatures are forgeries. Mr.;
