Surely as I live, I think the whole
world has placed an iron foot on our
good county, that others crowd what
I call nrne, you all know 'em, well
while t)uy stayed in the court-house
thi people just ripped 'em up the
back they got ripped for doing right
as well as doing wrong, but they got
ripped just the same. So now I've
waited and waited to hear the good
news, but no good news has come,
and to satisfy my craw I must do by
Mr. McCain's men as he used to do
by mine.
As it used to be, my friends Mr
McCain could never say a word too
, bad about my crowd, while they poor
creatures were doing their best to
serve their county and its people
they talked, they surveyed, they
built good roads, they did a little of
every thing almost, y.t they were
criticised beyond expression..
Comeout Mr. McCain and let's see
about your bunch of commissioners,
let's rip when they need ripping and
we will have a clean government for
our county if we haven't had any.
I just read the article written for
the Beaufort News by one Snowden
who is in the U. S. Navy now cruis
ing far across the sea. An interest
ing statement he made about a storm
which enveloped the ship he was on
for five days giving an account of
the U. S. Florida losing three power
boats in the gale. A further and
most astounding statement that he
(Snowd'.n) received two editions of
the Beaufort News while in Naples
and Barcelona. Kinda looks as if
the News is the paper of wrie circu
lation and most any thing one wishes
to know he can find within its pages.
Capt. Mart Lewis, Thomas and Tel-1
ford Willis yesterday went out to the
light ship "after Mr. Hinkley Guthrie
whose mother was stricken with par
alysis and is not expected to recover.
They made the trip in 7 1-2 hours
covering a distance of 30 miles, they
report a fine trip but saw no fish.
Sighted lots of sea grapes floating
which indicatehigh winds, rough sea
and hard times. (Maybe it'll fail.)
Mr. Phelps, the Beaufort Lumb:V

visitor here last evening and so was

Of course its hard to tell, but I
guess we're alright. We visit Atlan

their lives, but we never get killed

Little Mary Agnes Hancock was
taken very ill one afternoon of last
week and died next morning consid
ered almost a sudden death. The lit

all the people. A doctor was sum

reach the home of Mary Agnes Han

unknown disease. Our sympathies
are out for her grief-stricken parents,
hoping they may find relief in the
knowledge that Mary Agnes is
