I feel very grateful to the people of Franklin for what they Lave done for me. Feeling that I have discharged the duties involved on me to the best of my ability. I remain vours GIIKENE,* verv truly, C. L. J. T. C. F. A Serious Cutting Affair. Wednesday night about 9 o’clock Tom Armour seriously, if not fatally, stabbed John Kay about three miles west of Carnesville on Mva. jl/ary E. Moulder’s premises. From the best information obtainable we learned the following: Bob Kay and John Kay became involved in a difficulty, and Armour being the better friend to Bob, and seeing that Bob was getting the worse of the fight, came to his rescue with a knife, inflicting three very severe wounds, one of which is feared by the doctors will prove fatal. Sheriff J/eCcnnell was promptly informed about the matter, and lodged Armour in jail before day. Drs. Burruss and Rampley were called in to dress the wounds. Arrangements are being made for a preliminary hearing in the case as we go to press. — NOTICE. Notice is hereby given that I will apply to the next General Assembly of Georgia for the passage of a local bill, of which the following is a title: “An act to reincorporate the town of Iloyston in the county of Franklin* to define its limits, provide for its government, confer municipal powers and privileges upon it, and for other purposes.” This September 26,1890.

We appreciate your letters, and would he glad to hear from you each week. Neal Little, of Royston, was in the city Tuesday. Court closed Saturday night just at twelve o’clock. Many complain that the cotton is sprouting in the burr. Yesterday was quarterly meeting of the county Alliance. The election is over and all is “quiet along the Potomac.” Wine and whiskey were to be found in large quantities court week. Mr. F. II. Aderhold, of Harmony Grove, was in town last week. The recent heavy rains have done great damage to crops in this county. Prof. Morgan II. Looney delivered an address at the Bushviiie singing convention. Tom McConnell and Charley Mc- Enlirc visited Jefferson Saturday and •Sunday last. Our last grand jury was one of the best working bodies that we have had for some time. Owing to the overflowing streams Carnesville did not get any mail the first of the week. Two equinoxes in one season is something the weather men have failed to explain. The singing convention at Bush¬ viiie last Sunday was wJH attended by Carnesviliiuns. The “oldest inhabitants” say that Stephen’s creek was higher last Mon¬ day than ever before. Mrs. W. C. MeEiilire visited in the country the latter part of last week, staying several days. If a roan is not posted he makes very bad guesses sometimes as to how elections will result. Dr. L. K. and R. II. Burruss have bought the Looney property in this place west of Mrs. J. W. Ayers. Let everyone that is near enough come to the court house next Monday and see the opening of Carnesville High School. Old summer shoes were discarded this week and the merchants made a large sale of new ones. The feet of our citizens could not stand too much water. The lecture that will be delivered by Prof. Looney next Monday at the court house will be largely attended and all may expected to be benefitted by turning out. The Presbyterian church in Carnes¬ ville was struck by lightning Sunday evening, damaging it considerably. The house was set on fire, but was not burned to any extent. A. N. Payne commenced his stud¬ ies under Prof. Looney last week,! and will continue in school until Christmas. Mr. Payne is one of the best posted teachers in the county. Geo. T. Lusted, who served Bis apprenticeship in the jewerly busi¬ ness in London, is now in Carnes¬ ville, prepared to do all kind of work in the watch or clock repairing line. Wo call attention to the grand jury presentments. Their recom¬ mendation that the jail be better ven¬ tilated, and that a vault he built for county records, were wise considera¬ tions. A petition was circulated last week asking the? court to cancel all pro¬ ceedings that had been brought against C. O. Crump and was still un¬ settled. The petition secured many signers. It is impossible for a farmer to make a good crop without work on his part, aided by copious showers, lie will not have the spirit and energy to work during a drouth. It is also impossible for a school to he success- ful unless the teacher is aided and encouraged by the patrons. The Franklin Institute has been through a severs I years’ drouth. Now let the showers fall. Court Preceding.. Simmons A Wright vs. William Rosier. Foreclosure cf dismissed at plaintiffs cost. State vs, Gabriel Kddims. Assault and battery—-plea of guilty.
