We learn that a personal difficulty
occurred in Pickens county on Wednes
day of last week between Newton Boze
man and Pinckney Arwood, in which
the former was killed and the latter
severely wounded. It seems that the
parties had met at a neighbors, when
a dispute aroso abeut a settlement;
but they afterward separated, Arwood
going to his homo. Subsequently,
Bozeman, in company with one or two
others, followed him, and on arriving
at Arwood s field, where he was at
work, renewed the quarrel, and ad
vancing, drew his pistol. Just as.
Bozeman was in the act of firing, Ar
wood struck him with a pitchfork and
diverting the range—the ball striking
him in the hip. He then struck Bose
man on the head, breaking the skull
and producing death almost instantly.

Tribute of Respect
In memory of our brother, James W.
Davis, who joined the Independent
Order of Odd Fellows, Jane 21, 1871,
died March 6, 1877—aged fifty-three
years, three months and six days.
Whereas, it has pleased Almighty
God, in the dispensation of His All
wise and inscrutable Providence, to
remove from our midst our Brother
James AV. Davis, aud as we trust has
transplanted him in the Grand Lodge
on High, where they shall no more
say ‘I am sick,’ where the wicked cease
from troubling and the weary are at
rest. Therefore be it
Resolved Ist, That while we bow
with humble submission to the will of
Him who does all things well, enter
taining as we do the fond hope that
while we miss him here and deeply
deplore his loss, we trust that his
spirit is happy with its Maker, and is
to-day on the banks of sweet deliver
ance.
Resolved 2d, That in the death of
Brother Davis, tho church has lost a
consistent member, the community an
upright and honest citizen, and our
Lodge a brother of genuine integrity
and moral worth—possessing as he did
traits of character that endeared him
to all with whom he associated, both
in the Lodge room and in the common
walks of life.
Resolved 3d, That the sympathy and
condolence of our Lodge are due and
hereby tendered his bereaved family
in remembrance of the esteem and
high regard in which we held him
while in life, and in token of our grief
at his untimely loss, which we feel
cannot easily be repaired.
Resolved 4th, That a page of the
minute book of the Lodge be draped
in appropriate mourning and inscribed
to the memory of Brother Davis, with
the date of his birthuage and
tmtr dj<; 1
and his rank and standing in the same.
Resolved, That the Secretary of this
Lodge furnish the family with a copy
of these resolutions, and that they be
printed in the city papers.
All of which is most respectfully
submitted. AV. B. Clements,
