Americus Light Infantry on Home Trip. It seems like a many times told story. bel It is a story that will bear almost tcaaeless repetition, especially when every time it is a story with a aew phase and a promise of even bet ter things for Sumter county just ahead. Yesterday Mr. P. J. Payne, the real estate agent, received a letter from his ■brother, Mr. J. G. Payne, who for the past few weeks h'as been enga personal work among the farmers of a large section of South Carolina, put ting solid facts about Americus and Snnitcr county before them, and also (seeking to interest men of means in the opportunities hereabouts for profitable investments. In this work he has been very suc cessful. In his letter yesterday, writ ten from Greenville, the old home of the Messrs. Payne, he stated that the cntlook was good for a trip of a num ber of those he had been dealng with 1 , probably late this month, to Americus, for the purpose of personally studying the situation. Included In those who are expected to come are a bank pres ident, some other men of affairs, and some progressive farmers "It has not been difficult to awaken Interest in Sumter county,” wrote Mr. Payne, "as the reputation of the coun ty is already widely known and people are eager to hear more about the sec tion round about Americus." Mr. Payne expressed the belief that Hlfi> seed thai had been sown In South Carolina would bring forth a big cropof arrivals this summer, with investments .in lands, and a number r actual settlers as soon as the crops are laid by and lands disposed of Carolina. Mr. Payne wil continue his work Anderson and other counties of Sou... Carolina.
