MAKES STATEMENT
To the People of Beaufort County:
You hare probably Man tyat I
hare included Beaufort County in the
law which provides tha| tenants shall
comply with their contacts. The
law In my opinion is nHsunderstood
for the reason tha^ it jsn hurt no
honAt man and simply says that the
act of cheating aud defrauding shall
be construed to have been wUh/loT
tent to do so. There are about fifty
counties to be placed In the hill, but
I do not want Beaufort to be placed
therein unless It meets the approval
of the people and I will be glad to
hear from any cltisen of the county
on the subject.
