One of ihc limbs of tlie law nt Canton
wrote the following to an attorney who
wrote hint in regard to a lot of land that
lie tlmuL'Iit was in Cherokee county.
Dear sir; Yours or’ thu 17th received
and its near as I could I Ititvo acted in
accordance with your wishes. I have
located lot No 1 !fi in Walker county 'on
n spur of Ijof.froat Mountain. 1 had
fondly hope 1 to find it quietly nesllod
in the bosom of some lertilu valley in
the good old county of Cherokee, fed
hy some quiet stream and tlilekiy stud
ded with thestalks of.', bygone harvest.
But bg ex..mining the man 1 find that it
is an ordinary lot content to dwell in
humble seclusion beside its tollows, out
an ambitions ar.d aspiring one and lias
perched it;,elf upon this lofty eminence
and lo >ks down with t overing scorn on
its Inunole neighbors of th 1 Valley. As
to its value, though I lnv.i no exact
means of knowing, L suppose that it
.L'pcnds upon the use one would make
of it provided it wen* s . fai subdued as
to lie brought under the control I and
dvminion of man I Imvo 110 doubt if
man could invent a means of transit
whereby lie could reach it without the
fatigue of climbing, he could obtain a
view more grandly plnturerque than any
afforded bv the tar flined Alps. I luve 1
not a doubt but that it posieses Volcan
ic properties of a superior quality which
if «waed by some individual ol capiti 1
pluck and enterorlsu would pay haul-
sane divided I if lie would utilize the
nut.-rial whoa found Besides there are
v i ions other uses which a wiled more
inventive than inira could suggest to
which it could lie put with profit ami
pl.Rist’in to tho owner. I am sincere
when 1 say that 1 ant nfnid that l have
rendered you all thu service possible in
ilia f .ce o'f the difllcnlticH which 1 have
enumerated but it you sh mid differ with
mu pic isc do not hesitate to command
my service 1 c mfess openly and wlUi

mon 1 down the .Swamps of tho James
to New Port News, winch point I found
to l)» a thriving little town North of tho
Jauti's River near tho Hamptdn Roads,
in the wharf at th s place there was
stored 20,000 barrel* wf the pure corn
and rye whiskey of lv utucky, Ohio and
Virginia. On making inquiries about
the onormous amount I learned that if
was ta hu shipped t« Europe. From
this point l took <( Htearner for Norfolk,
which place affurds many clear and
vivid recollections to those who Htrvod
in the E mturn army. Here I visited tho
Sr. Pauls Church, the brick of which it
is constructed! were brought from Eu
rope m 1738 and the church was built
in 17:19; within ith walls can ho seen a
cannon Imll there etnhoded, fired there
by the British in the Revolutionary war.
In this Church yard aro many aucient

as 1073. Within ibis church are trees
ured many ancient and modern relics;

From here I took boat for New York,
ana was on the waters twenty four hours;
as my timu become limited I did not
remain in tho city ol New York but a

said that she was with the child and tile
man and that if the child was whipped
H hu did not know it; The mother ol the
clilld sold tho cniltl hud been sickly all
its life, and that the man did not whip
the child on the road at all. Can it be
true that a in.11 could take planks or
pcices of scantling and beat a poor little
sick child without killiugit at onestrokeV
But not even a scratch from u boird,
plank or a scantling was found upon tlie
child ; not even its mother knew unyt Lung
about it. Therefore I will never believe
lie is guilty of murder upon i.sucli

Jerry Mat shall Carried it out to lot it

not from intended murder. If Jerry had

u-k i’.i the name of God does that look
like a murderer? I -ay no, not at all
and I hope Cherokee* jury will never
again condemn a maa for murder when
there is no evidence shown of some guilt
which lias nor. been shewn in the least
on tho part of Jerry Marshal!* 1 kave
this lo tay, if lie bangs it ourdit to be
really proven that he killed tlie child.
Nu one on earth says lie whs seen killing
the child or making mi attempt ot so
doing. If lie had kTied the child iuteu-
tionuiv I truthfaly believe that he would
have ran away a once. But here is the
truth of it: he is a negro and lie must
hang because he is negro and not because
he ever did any murder. A fine healthy
child in Cant 'ii on the very day that
Jerry was tri -d was well and hearty all
of its life and playing untill lute tint
night anil it Was dead next morning,
so if a well child can die iri a moment
of time it looks like a sick child all iis
life riot able to ear. could die in a moment
of time. God knows that I believe the
child died from its sickness and not from
murder. rL'ȣ Ou-,krVKb.
