At Atlanta Friday Judge Mai-sball J.
Clarke rendered a decision in the case of
E. C. Bruffey, a reporter, who a lew days
ago was orrjered to jail for contempt of
court, and who was afterward released at
the instance of his attorney, Col. X. J. Ham
mond, for the purpose of allowing him to
make a showing in the oase. Judge Clarke,
in his decision, took the ground that Mr.
Bruffey, to testify as to which member of
the grand iury gave him the intorutattmi
that he published, would criminate himself,
and could not be required to do so. lie
would, in so doing, funush evidence to con.
riot himself, as he was equally as guilt y as
the member of the grand jury in divulging
the secrets of the grand jury room. Mr.
Bruffey was therefore discharged. It is
said that the grand jury is not st all satis
fied with the situation. They have made
up their minds to find out who leaked, and
will take other steps to get at the bottom of
the affair. There is some talk of getting an
indictment against Bruffey, but this is met
by the questi in as to who the witnesses will
be. The man who gave the information
would criminate himself if he testified in the
ease, and without his testimony it would be
a hard matter to locate the man who gave
out the information.

ing through the house, saw her husbuiul's
knife lyuig on tho tanle, placed it in her

Arthur dearly loves sport. The day being
somewhat gloomy, zr. Fryer concluded to
squirrel hunt after having looked after his

have anothor “treed’’ for him. This con
tinued until about 4 o’clock, and in the
meantime they had been moving farther
and farther into the swamp, and at last Mr.
Fryer aud the boys realized that they were
lost, and that, too, in "Beaver Ruin.” They

tered thicker cane and deeper mud
and water, and just at dark they reach
ed a small island, wet and cold. After
repeated efforts they started a tiro, and re,
inained thore until morning. Mr. Fryer’s
friends knew that he had gone to the swamp,
and 11 linking that he was lost, turned out to
eook for him, several of the young men of
the town spending the entire night in the
search. Andrew Warren and Rich Harris
i had the good fortune to find tho party yes
\ terdfiy morning, and showed them the way

AN INTERESTING TRIAL.
The History of a Fatal Affray That
Has Caused Much Trouble.
Atlanta (Ga.) Special to the Au(pmia Chronicle.
VV. F. Findley, Esq., of Gainesville, was
in the city Thursday on Ids retnrn from
Kill jay, where lie has been during the week
to assist in the defense of his uncle, VV alter
VV. Findley, who was charged with the
offense of murder. He give* the following
account of the difficulty, out of which four
murder cases have sprung: Walter Findley
ai*l Robert P. Woody were mad with
each other, and had been for some
time, though no trouble was antci
pated. They by accident, met at ML
Pleasant Church, which is on the top of
the Blue Ridge, on the road leading from
Ellijay to Biairsville, in Gilmer comity.
Findley hitched iiis horse and went into the
church; Woody came up afterward, driving
a yoke of oxen, took them out and attempt
ed to go in, but the services were conclud
ing. Woody was drinking, and had a jug
of brandy in the wagon. His wife was with
him. Findley came out of the house, and
walked around Woody’s wagon to where his
horse was hitched, and called to Jesse
Bailv, who was with him. to come
ahead and we will go home. Woody
at this point told William Thomp
son to help his (Woody's) wife
in the wagon and told him to "roll her in.
Findley told Bailv to roll his saddle blanket
up. put on his saddle and thev would go.
Woody misunderstood this, and understood
Findley to speak about his wife and sa v roll
her up. VVoodv began immediately to
curse Findley, and the latter returned bis
abuse in kind. Woody then wished to tight.
but friend* held him. He finally got out
iiis pistol, and with it in hand was making
for Findley. Findley told Woody when he
was trying to get loose to come out
from the crowd and they would set
tle it. When Woody was advancing,
pistol In hand, Findley drew his
and the firing began. According to
Woody’s theory Findley fired first, and to
Findley’s Woody got" in the first; shot.
When the firing ceased, Woody was shot in
the right hand and arm and in the abdomen.
Findley’s hat had a bullet hole through it,
and his coat, vest and shirt cut, and his skin
on the breast slightly lacerated from a ball
from Woody’s pistol. Findley was also
knocked down with a rock. William Kim
sey, a bystander, was, during the
affray, shot and killed. No arrests
were made. The affair took place
o" Sept. 28, 1884, and in November
following the Grand Jury indicted both
VVoodey and Fi’ diey for "the murder of
Kimsej', and each for assault, witli into it to
mu de.r the other. Woodev was arrested
upon the twj warrants against him. was
tried on the assault with intent to murder
at the October term, 1885, and found guilty
of shooting at another, and sent to the pen
itential-)- for one year. At the Mav term,
1887, he was tried for the murder of Rimscv
and aoauitted.
Findley after the affray went to Missouri
and remained a short while, and at the
October term, 18S5, of Gilmer court, went
into the court house and in open court sur
rendered himself, and was admitted to bail.
Since then, for various reasons, the cases
have been continued: but on last Monday
he was put ufn ids trial for the murder of
Kimsey, and on yesterday morning, at the
opening of court, the jury returned a ver
dict of not guilty. Woody and Findley
have now both been tried for the murder of
Kimsey. ami a jury has said that neither
is guilty of it.
Findley continued the case of assault
with intent to murder against him, and
that will come up the first case at the next
May term.
