Heath of a Hood Woman.
Died at her residence in Oswichee. Ala., Fri
day evening, October 1., Mrs. Arabella C. N is bet,
in the 67th year of her age. The deceased was
the wife of the late Hon. F. A. Nisbet, and
daughter of Major Wm. Alexander, of Putnam
county, the place of her birth. The surviving
acquaintances of her earlier life will recall the
beaming features and buoyant cheerfulness
which distinguished her debut as a young lady
into the brilliant society of that period of the
history of our city. The qualities which thus
made her the “loved of all” have contined to
render her through life an object of endearment
to an ever increasing circle of friends, until she
is recognized as having acted well her part iu
more relations than often falls to the lot of
woman. In this community she is more dis
tinctively known as the mother of a large house
hold of lovely daughters and cultured sons, the
former of whom have all died, while the war
and successive deaths in early manhood leave
«nly three of the latter to revere her virtues. Tho
crowning grace of an abiding Christian spirit
from childhood tells the fuller and brighter story
ofherlife. The funeral services will take place
to-day (.Sunday) in Oswichee at 10 a. m., at the
Methodist church, in the adjacent cemetery to
which she will be buried.

Messrs. J C. Mathews, B. H. Wilkinson, E. F.
Hinton and J. 8. McOorde appeared for the de

eral, E. M. Britt and Ed Siminous for the prose
cution. At 6 o’clock Thursday evening the case

bered that Blackman was tried on the same
charge a year ago and convicted, the verdict be
ing then as now, and he wap sentenced to be
hanged the 6th of last November. The case was
carried to the supreme court and remanded.
Judge Fort sentenced him to hang on the 26th of
