Whereas, Mr. Fred Chewning was born in Manning on November 22, 1904, and died on December 3, 2008, at the age of one hundred four; and

Whereas, he was the son of Claude C. and Mary McCoy Chewning and the stepson of Ella Ridgeway Chewning; and

Whereas, he was a graduate of Wofford College and a retired school teacher; and

Whereas, Mr. Chewning was a devoted member of the Manning United Methodist Church. He was also a Mason of St. Peter's Lodge # 54, a 32nd degree member of Ancient Accepted Scottish Rites, and a member of the Huguenot Society; and

Whereas, it would be fitting and proper for the members of the General Assembly to honor the memory of this son of South Carolina by naming a portion of South Carolina Highway 260 in Clarendon County in his honor. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:

That the members of the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina request that the Department of Transportation name the portion of South Carolina Highway 260 in Clarendon County from its intersection with the Manning city limits to Oxwali Creek "Fred Chewning Highway" and erect appropriate markers or signs along this portion of highway that contain the words "Fred Chewning Highway".

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
