- Martha and Henry D. Monteith examine a crater created by a bomb explosion in their front yard. Dr. Monteith is the uncle of Henrie Monteith, a student scheduled to begin classes at the University of South Carolina in the fall. It was reported that the bomb may have been dropped in order to intimidate Henrie Monteith from enrolling. Miss Monteith will be one of the first African-American students at the University since Reconstruction. She resides near her uncle at 1307 Mason Road.
