A.H. 'Farmer' Scott Will Be Missed When He Leaves for South America, October 1919

From October 1919 issue of The Badin Bulletin, devoted to the interests of the employees of the Tallassee Power Company and the pleasure and profit of all people of Badin. To see a picture of A.C. “Farmer” Scott, go to http://newspapers.digitalnc.org/lccn/2014236802/1919-10-01/ed-1/seq-3/

“Farmer” Scott to South America

Mr. A.H. Scott, better known as “Farmer” Scot, has left Badin to take up work on the Aluminum Company’s properties in South America. “Scotty” has been here since December, 1915, and he will be greatly missed. He has been with the Aluminum Company for a number of years, having worked at the plants in Cedars, Quebec, Shawanigan Falls, Massena, Maryville, Niagara Falls, and Badin.

“Scotty” is one of our “characters”—a man whose exterior manner is in notable contrast with his inner qualities of his nature. His warm-hearted generosity and unselfishness were never failing, as likewise his readiness to help in all times of need.

Scotty will carry with him the best wishes of a host of friends.

From another article in this issue, on the Labor Day celebration:

Farmer Scott, with his trained horses, goats, and pigs, had a very good act—one that showed up the careful training and intelligence of his animals. Unfortunately the light on the ring was bad, and it could not be appreciated by the crowd.
