Heartlessness of a Husband Rears Rock Hill Tale
A husband Jasper Hyder from Bessemer City moved to Lancaster with his wife Dora then traveled by train to Rock Hill leaving her in a waiting room. He claimed to return but disappeared, taking moneyless, distraught Dora with no explanation. A sympathetic worker aided her to the depot funds, and officials secured passage home for Dora. The report condemns the husband as heartless and suggests punishment. The Chester Lantern comments urge lawmakers to kill a proposal increasing judicial circuits and dispensary directors salaries and to adjourn to 1906 for 40 days, with periodic sessions thereafter.
