A brief summary of damage sustain 1 ed according to reports from different sections of Sumter county, is as fol lows: The magnificent peach crop sustain ed no Injury whatever. Young cotton In localities was killed, while the crop generally badly damaged but not to the extent of necessitating replanting. Corn was severely nipped by the frost, but will recover. Vegetable gardens are more or less injured, but will not haye to be re planted. Even tomatoes and beans, growing In tife open gardon. c caped destruction largely, although few gardeners here report about naif the crop killed. The Fruit Was Protected! Greatest satisfaction is felt In the escape of the peach crop hero from any injury whatever. There aro half a m'lllon bearing trees In the AmerT cus territory and all are loaded down with the finest crop they have ever borne, and which promises a golden l.urvest. Not a poach will drop off as a re sult of the cold yesterday. Mr. J. L. Glawson, manager tor the Ware-Progress Orchad Co.,- owning bunded thousand trees, brought the Tlmes-Recoder a pocket full of poaches as large as hickory nuts and eactl one pulled yesterday morning from the Up end of limbs where nn protected by foliage. Every peach cut open was of healthy appearance and evidence no Injury whatever. Mr. Glawson Is very positive that no damage whatever has been sus tianed by this late frost, and this opin ion is Held by others of the large or chard owners. That a bumper crop will be made In the Amertcus territory is assured and the fruit will be fine. Cotton AVIII be Replanted. That some ]»rtlon of the cotton crop must be replanted is assured, but the acreage damaged Is not as great as at first feared. There will be enough seed for replanting, as any deficiency on the farm can readily be supplied from the stocks of Amcrlcus oil mills Tho five plan:* ii re will be In posi tion, no doubt, to supply all demands for seed. The fact that the two main crops —cotton and corn—escaped destruc tion Is an Immense relief, as bad this been the case the farmers would have been put to groat expense and addi tional labor In replanting, while the harvest -would have bcea delayed as well. Cnnteloupe Crop Is Nipped. The canteloupe crop, a very consid' erable one near Amertcus, felt the effect of the frost yesterday, as did other tender vegetation. Mr. E. C. Parker, who has e'ghty acres In canteloupes, says the plants are nipped to some extent, but the In jury Is not very great. Henry Patterson, the negro murder er of Capt. W. F. McRae, and. who was sentenced to be hanged this morn lng, is granted the usual respite, as is always done here In murder cases, and the execution goes over until May ISthT The only chance at delay left bpen to Patterson was an appeal to the prison commission, the usual "court of last resort," and Patterson took it at the eleventh hour. While thi3 usual delay was fully anticipated Sheriff Feagln nevertheless had pro ceeded with preparations for hanging the murderer, and the gallows was in trim for tho tragedy. A stay of ex ecution of three weeks Is thus se cured and Patterson has that much more time wherein to reflect upon his atrocious crime and merited pun ishment. MRS. P. A. CATCHINGS DIES AT HOME HERE. Well-Known Lady of Amor ims Passes Away. Mrs. Philip A. Catchlngs, for many years a resident of Amerlcus and greatly esteemed among her friends, died at an early houY yesterday morn ing at her residence on Brannon av enue. The end came painlessly and was due to some heart affliction. Mrs. Catchlngs had retired /he ev- Ing previous in her usual good health, and tho announcement of her death was a distinct shock to those near and dear to her. Mr. Catchlngs was absent from the city, engaged in his duties as cen sus enumerator In the county, but a car sent out for him brought him to the stricken tame. Mrs. Catchlngs has resided for along period of years In this city. A kind, gentle and much-beloved Christian woman, sho made and re tained strong* friendships. Her hus band and one son, Seymou^Catchings, now a resident of Cordele, Arvlve her.

IN GEORGIA Sections Report 10 to 50 Per Cent. Damage. (Special to Tlmes-Recorder.) Atlanta, Ga., April 27.—Further In formation Is coming In of damage to cotton from the recent cold. Telegrams show that there was lit tle damage at Montezuma, about ten cent of cotton planted will have be re-planted at Cordele and Al bany,^!) per cent to be re-planted at Dublin, 40 per cent, to be re-planted at Columbus. There will be a good deal of replanting In Alabama. T. M. Hutchinson, secretary of the Southern Cottonseed CrusDers' As sociation, believes from reports that he has got from 15 to 25 pe» cent, cf the entire crop must be re-planted. T. G. Hudson, Georgia’s comm't- ionser of Agriculture, thinks from 25 to 60 per cent, must be re-planted. Everything shows that if peaches have been hurt at all It was In Iso lated places In North Georgia.
