Lost hunter shows up By JOHNNY LOTT Staff writer A hunter lost overnight in thick woods off U.S. 178 near Epworth was found safely Saturday morning. Actually, the 34-year-old hunter "found" the 50-member rescue team that had been hunting for him when the hunter arrived in the back of a pickup truck around 8:30 a.m.

Saturday. Sheriff's deputies, volunteer firemen and South Carolina Wildlife officers were awaiting a Wildlife Department search helicopter when the hunter, Charles Parnell of Wildwood Trailer Park, showed up in a pickup truck. Parnell had apparently emerged from the woods and hitched a ride with a couple in a pickup. Upon telling them he'd spent the night in the woods, the couple drove him to the search party, according to sheriff's reports. "'The first thing he said was, 'Y'all looking for Sheriff's Capt.

Ricky Miles quoted Parnell as asking the volunteer firemen, wildlife officers and deputies who had been seeking him since around 9. p.m. Friday. "'We looked for him all night long," said Miles. man who picked him up said about 50 people were looking for him," said Emergency Preparedness Director Herbert Vaughn.

"'We kept checking to make sure he hadn't gone home. He looked like he was happy to be out," said Vaughn. Parnell apparently became separated from a bunting companion around dusk Friday evening, Miles added. Miles said Parnell suffers from a back injury, which his extensive walking may have aggravated. Otherwise, Parnell appeared in good shape.

The county has one or two lost bunters per year, Vaughn said. Authorities advised hunters to become as familiar as possible with the areas they hunt and to carry compasses and flashlights especially when hunting in the late afternoon.
