A company has been formed, and fifty
acres of land near Holton purchased, for a
quarry that will supply Macon and the sur
rounding country with as good an article of
blue, gray and white granite as can be pro
duced. The granite has been carefully ex
amined by experts and pronounced equal to
any ever used in Macon. The supply is
practically inexhaustible, and it lies in such
a way’ that it is readily gotten out. The
quarry is about 400 yards from the East
Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railroad,
about 11 miles from Macon, and it is the
purpose of the company to run a side track
to the granite, thus making one loading. It
is estimated that after the side truck is laid
the granite is so plentiful that the track will
not require extension in ten years.
I’at Pierce,of the Macon Truck Company,

casin glide away and into the weeds. She
picked up the boy and discovering that he
had lieen bitten on the leg by the snake, car
ried him to the iiouse and began sucking
the wound. When she thought the poison
was out she gave the child whiskv, and put
a tobacco poultice on the wound. Dr. Mc-
Hatton was sent for and approved of the
remedies that had been applied, with the ad
dition of substituting, after a little while, a
meal poultice for the tobacco. Wednesday
evening the little fellow seemed to be ail
right.
A suit has been filed with the Clerk of

pond on Noses creek,,situated about two
miles below said marble works. The suit
values Mr. Delk’s flour and grist mill and
rock mill dam at $5,000, and profits accruing
from said mill at SSOO per annum. The suit
alleges that said American Marble Com
jKiny uses one and a half ear loads of sand
l>er day and night, and by means of pines
and drains empties this sand and marble
dust.into the stream that flows into said
Delk’s millpond, greatly filling up said rock
<iam and lessening the water power, also
claiming t hat said pond is stocked with fish
valued at S3OO, ami the accumulation of
fish is being interfered with.

Sandorsville Herald: “A leading and
very reliable dry goods merchant of this
place told us on Saturday that his trade was
more satisfactory than it had boon for years
past. While not selling strictly for cash,
yet his cash sulos this year were much larger
than usual, and much of this trade came
from the colored people, that formerly s|M>nt
their small change for whisky. Another
dry goods firm, we learn, makes a similar
statement, that his cash trade is better than
heretofore. We have heard from grocery
merchants, both here and at Temiiile,
statements that their sides had lieen much
improved since the closing of the barrooms.
These facts show the good effects of pro
hibition. The present has been an excep
tionally hard year, money matters have
been very stringent, the number of dry
goods stores is the same as last year, nml vet
their sales are more satisfactory than for
merly. This is in harmony with the testi
mony of business men in prohibition towns
generally.”
The Court of County Commissioners of
Johnson was reoontly thrown into great
surprise when they undertook to teach
their predecessors a moral lesson, by having
them to appear bofore the present court to
in' by it censured for drawing more pay
than the present incumbents thought they
were justly entitled to receive for theiv ser
vices whit Min .-office, While the ex-Com
missiouers were there for that purpose and
rending the law creating the court and pro
viding pay for its officers, it was discovered
by reading t.he statute creating the court that
the term of office of the old Commission: rs
lacked two years of being terminated. By
the act of the Legislature creating
the court the Commissioners elected ill
November, 1883, were to hold their olfioo
only two years; hence, after the election
came once in two years from the former,
election, the people thought that the officers’
were to lie elected every two years—thus
the awknrdness of the situation. The Gov
ernor will be consulted about the matter to
sis? if nnv menus can lie devised so as to ox
tricuto the officers out of their embarrassed
condition.
The Governor hM received a rather un
usual document from Daingerflold.J Morris
county, Tex. It consists of a letter and a
manuscript txiein consisting of sixty-three
stanzas. The poem is entitled “A Battle
scarred Confederate,” and is intended to tie
the lament of a gallant soldier, wounded in
Battle,twith a limb none, upon the ingrati
tude of a poonlo for whom he spilled his
hint blood. Trio letter states that the au
thor was bereft of a leg at Winchester, in
September, IXiH, ami was given an artiti
rial limb by Georgia, in IX7O. Removing
then to Texas, he now finds himself in a
plight which is best described in nis own

gia she denies me the benefit of any act she
may pass for the benefit of maimed Confed
erates, liecsuse l did not enter the Confed
erate army from Texas she denies me the
benefit oi anything she does for disabled
Confederates. ’’ The writer, who signs him
self John M Richardson, says he does not
complain, however, and sends the poem for
the Governor's perusal. Gov. Gordon says
a hast y nulling discloses the fact that the
poem has considerable merit.

Pettyjohn, Freeland and L. Q. C. McGinnis
were convicted of murder and sentenced to
be hung. The other two were sent to the
penitentiary. Freeland was hung in 1800.
McGinnis broke jail, was recaptured and
hung in 1861. Pettyjohn broke jail when
McGinnis did, and lias been at large ever
since. It is rumored here that the Sheriff
of Forsyth has gone after Pettyjohn. It is
said that “murder will out,” and if Petty
john is brought back and hung for a crime
committed twenty-nine years ago, surely
violators of the law will begin to have some
respect for the law.

scene of a peculiar affair, Wednesday, in
which little Don Costello, but 7 years of age,
was badly lacerated by a cat. lie was play
ing in an unused yard next to his mother’s
residence, a block, vicious-looking bouse cat
forming part of the company. For no ap
parent cause, and without warning, the
animal sprang at the little fellow, and in
an instant wus biting and scratching him
like a tiger. Don fought and screamed, but
each moment the maddened cat
used its teeth and claws with more
telling effect. Blood spurted in
every direction, and the boy’s clothes were
saturated. He ran for the street, the mad
dened animal following and attempting to
renew the attack, but assistance was at
hand, and in a few moments the gallant
boys of fire company No. 1 hail killed the
blood thirsty brute, carrying the wounded
boy to his mother. Then it was discovered
that his hurts were not only painful, but
serious, lie having been bitten seventeen
times, besides numerous scratches. His left
leg. arm and fingers were considerably torn,
causing much loss of blood. Medical aid
was summoned, the wounds dressed, and at
last accounts he was resting easily.

J uduv C. U. Butt, of the Criminal Court,
n.rodrvwl proceedings at Orlando, Tuesday,
in tiie Circu t Court, to Test the legality at
the city government. According to law
the election takes place every year in Juiy,
and the law and order portion of the com
munity were just yearning for the time to
roil around so they might retire a numlier
of officials to private life; but in anticipa
tion of the coming fate, perhaps, they
argued that it was safer to hold on to what
they have than let go and risk getting it back
by a vote of the people. So they shrewdly,
if not wisely, voted themselves into office
a few months longer by passing a resolu
tion of postponement of election until
December. This. Judge Butt, considers
illegal, not to snv decidedly arbitrary, and
proposes to test tho validity of tho proceed

A PRISONER’S NARRATIVE.
I. J. Davis, of Montgomery County,
Tells Why He is in the County Jail.
From the Moron ((So.) Telegraph.
“There’s one of the best prisoners I ever
had in jail,” said Jailer Birdsong yesterday,
pointing to tho cell iu which Darby was con
fined so long. “110 acts like a gentleman,
arul lias never given me tho slightest trou
ble,” he continued.
The occupant of the cell was I. J. Davis,
of Montgomery county, charged with mur
der. He has been confined here several
months for safe keeping. In tho cell with
him Ls his brother Pollard, who conies to visit
him, and who allows himself to be kept
under lock and key and under the prison
discipline for the pleasure of tho privilege
to lie with his brother.
Davis is tall, dresses with taste and neat
ness, and thei e is nothing aiiout his features
to indicate in the remotest that lie is a crimi
nal, except the fact that lie is behind the
grated bars. He talks well, and shows that
he has had a fair education. He is a farmer,
ho says, but at one time was in business at
Darien, but his health failing him, he re
turned to farming in his own county.
The crime with which he is connected
created quite a sensation at the time of its
occurrence. It, was supposed that Mont
gomery county was full of fastnesses to
which criminals fled aud kept themselves
hidden, and Gum Swamp and Gum Pond
were famous as the resort of desperate men,
who defied law. This was a wrong idea,
but it existed, nevertheless. Yesterday
Davis intimated that he would toil the
whole story of his crime, and here it is:
“On Oct. 6, 1885, I started to tho polls at
Lithuir, in Montgomery county, to vote.
In my partv were my brothere, Pollard and
E. L., ami John Spalding, Arthur Davis
and J. Y. Hill, the bailiff. IVbile we were
approaching the polls, we saw the Millers
getting out of their wagon at the court
house. There '.'.ere Joseph Miller, Sr.,
Joseph Miller, Jr., David Miller, Man
sell Paul, B. P. Daniels, A. G. Odom
and Thomas A. Miller, Jr. As we
wont walking down to the polls we
saw the party standing in front of the
court house. About the time we watched
them, Davo Miller pushed Joe Miller, Sr.,
a man 80 years old, on J. Y. Hill. As be
was pushed, Joe said, “Now, Hill, you’ve
been looking for a fight, aud I’ll accommo
date you.” Hill stopped back, and told Joe
that he re.-ported Ins old age and not to
come toward him. Joe cursed, and said
something about fighting a man. Hill did
not want to light, but Dave Miller drew a
knife. Then Hill stopped bark and liegan to
draw his, and to’.d them to stand back. 1
stepped up, and caught Hill with iny right
hand. Joe Mill'or, Jr., came walking i p
from hehiud Dave, and I saw him drawing
his revolver. I caught him with my left
hand and said: Mix' (he was my brother-ii -
law), stop. Dave and I’ll stop Hill.’ J< e
said: ‘No, let ’em work it.' Du ing this time
Thomas Miller, Jr., and Thomas Miller, Sr.,
came up, ami Thomas Miller, Jr., reached
over and caught me in tho collar and sai 1:
I’ve got von now whore I long have wanted
you,’ at the same time drawing a large Tren
ton knife. I got aw ty from him and com
menced to back up the ro id going as far as
forty-five feet, tilling him re
peatedly that I didn’t want to hurt
him, but not U come at mo with that knife.
By this time 1 had backed to the edge of a
ditch in tin* road, unit £ couldn’t back any
further without falling into it. Tom kept
advancing, and I put my hand on my
pistol. Ho continued to advance, and I
drew my pistol and lired two shots over his
head, not wanting to hurt him. Ho dodged
his head, and thinking I did not intend to
miss him commenced cutting at mo and
said, ‘dhoot, you —; you can’t hit
me no how.’ I then fed! into the ditand
fired the third shot, and at the same time
another shot was fired by Joe Miller, Jr.,
w o fired at me from behind Thomas
Miller. Thomas Miller then fell
between us, Joe Miller firing two shots at
me as I was rising from the ditch. One of
the bullets passed over my left eve, blinding
me for awhile, and the other under my arm.
When 1 got so I could see, he was cooking
his pistol for the fourth shot. I said ‘Jo°,
don't shoot at me any more or I'll shoot
you.’ He turned to his brother Dave and
said: ‘do and get me the gun out of the
wagon, this thing (meaning his pistol) won’t
w r.c; it‘s no account.’ Then my brother
Pollard hallooed, ‘Hun I. J., here comes
the double-barreled gun.’ I scud t >
Dave, 'l’ve nothing to run for.’ My
brothers then came up and carried me up
the niacl. I then submitted to an arrest.
Then the crowd came up. Dave Miller
with his shotgun, A. If. Odom with apis 01,
Joe Miller with a pistol, uml John Gillix
with a stick that had a ribbon tied on it.
They c ame up and surrounded me, but nr,
friends protected mo from them. Dave re
marked, ‘I don’t fear the law,’ and then
cocked both barrels of his gun. One of my
friends stepped up between us and stopped
him. A warrant was then writteu out for
m", anil 1 was %rrested by Julius Dunn, u
bailin'. I wus carried to the house of John
Miller and chained with a log-chain before
the muzzle of shotguns in the hands of my
bitterest enemies. The Coroner held an in
quest, and the verdict was manslaughter.
1 was trcsl the next, day before W. J. Daly,
u Justice of the Peace, uod he admitted
me to buil in the sum of 41,000 for involun
tary manslaughter. I guw bond immedi
ately and went home. When the grand
jury met one of the men who swore against
me was indicted for perjury, and the other
got SJT> from Joe Mil' r and is to get #75
more when he swears n nun-1 me in the i
prouebing trial. Detectives ircl
and DcL'ino caine down there as peddlers
and triei to arrest me, but they couldn’t do
it. I knew HhenlF McGregor; he was an
old schoolmate, and ho knew where lie could
get me whenever wanted. I spent my time
ut my father’s house with dog and gun, and
Anally I scut for the Sheriff and gave myself
up to him, and that is why I am now hero
