The tale blends local eccentricity with notices of patent medicines and regional commerce from Augusta to Atlanta.

The Stock Law in Sumter County Rural Debate Survives Court
The Supreme Court ruling on unconstitutionality of local stock laws does not affect the twenty seventh and twenty ninth districts. Sumter farmers who removed fences face hardship as crops may be harmed by neighbor stock. Two districts remain fence free and liable for trespass. To extend the law countywide, voters can vote no fence or push repeal and re enactment. The issue will linger amid opposition for months.
