Whereas, Chief Magistrate George McFaddin, mindful of his responsibilities, returned to his chambers the next day with a headache but generally in good health; and

Whereas, it is appropriate that the members of the House of Representatives pause in recognition of such a valiant and PreviouscourageousNext South Carolinian as Chief Magistrate George McFaddin of Sumter. Now, therefore,
