Little Rock, four miles above Dillon, as before stated, has been absorbed by Dillon. It never was much more than a cross-roads hamlet, though there were three or four business houses there. It was incorporated some years ago, as I understood at the time, mainly for the purpose of heading off the illicit liquor traffic, which it did pretty effectually.

It is in a sober, quiet community, and there are three churches there, Methodist, Baptist and Presbyterian.
