THE COMMITMENT TRIAL.
Hadaway is Cammitted to Jail With¬
out Bail.
The com mitmrnt trial of John T.
Hailsway iur killing Frank Wilting ,
bain on last Monday afternoon at
Sunny Side, took place yesterday at |
the court house, before fits honor;
Judge W. G. Becks, The trial begun
about 9 o’clock a. m. Judge J. D.
Stewart and Robert Daniel represen
led the prosecution and Col. E. W.
Hammond appeared for the defense.
After till the witnesses had been
sworn Obas. G. Morris was appoint
ed In tike down iheir evidence.
From the temimouy of (lie witness
es it appears that it was not auch a
strong case of self defense as it
was at first supposed. Hadaway
had loaned Willingham bis wagon
nod when he failed to return it at
the time agreed upon he went down
to where Willingham was and began
cursing the negroes who were unload
ing the seed fiom the wagon. He
then demanded the wagon from Wil
lingharn, who told him he would
have to bring bis shot gun down to
get it before bo got through with it, 1
With that be palled his knife from j
his pocket, but made no attempt to I
cut Hadaway. Seeing him take bis j
knife from bis pocket, Hadaway ■
reached back to draw bis pistol, but
had not got it in front of him j
before WilUngham bad jump j
ed upon him and attempt |
ed to snatch it from bis band, j
Ju*t before be did this, however, be ;
threw bis knife away from him. In i
the scuffle they fell and tbe pistol i
fired. A negro came op about this j
tirno aud took tbe pistol and soon af i
terwards Willingham died. These j
men bad a difficulty sometime before I
this which resulted in Willingham’s j
striking Hadaway on the head with a ,
rock and knocking him senseless for
several minutes. They had made i
friends after this, hnt Hadaway i
Reems to have Lad a grudge against j !
him about it, After all the evidence
had been given in Gol. Hammond
arose and made a pointed argument
for the defense. He was follow
ed hv Judge Stewart, who made a
brilliant and forcible speech of about
30 minutes duration. Then C#l.
Daniel took the floor and made a
most eloquent argument for the pros
ecution. When he concluded his
speech which, it need hardly be add
ed, won him many compliments from
those assembled, Col. Hammond
arose to make his closing arguments-
His speech from tbe beginning was
spiced with those little witicism* for
which he is so remarkable. He soon
grew eloquent, however, and for sev
oral minutes held tbe audience as if
spellbound. After tbe argnment had
been finished Judge Beeks saw prop
er to commit the prisoner to jail
without bail to answer to the charge
of murder.
OUR COTTON REPORT.
The Best Season that Griffin Has
Seen for Seven Years.
Colion continues lo pour into this
market without any perceptible dirni
nation in quantity. Alleged buyers
in neighboring towns fail to under
stand how more can be paid here
than in any other market in tho
State; but tho farmers accept tho fact
without questioning the cause, and
continue to roll in the halos. Eighty
six bales came in one lot from Mori
wether to one warehouse hero early
yesterday, with eighteen more to fol
low. On Friday night the late way
farer saw cotton standing in the
bright moonlight in front of the
warehouses, waiting for tLie doors to
open.
Prices have ruled higher this seas
on than for mauy years past, and
the small frroier is receiving all the
benefit, H« can not afford to held
for a rise, but gets a better price
all things considered than those who
wait. The amount of moisture in tbe
new cotton gives an advantage of soar
eral pounds over that which is held
for several months. The general
opinion here, with a few dissenting
voices among those iu the business,
is that prices will not run up much
after the crop has been maiketed, as
they usually do. Right around Grif
fin and out on tbe river tine crops
baye been made, although tbe acre
age td this whole immediate section
not high. But iu the whole belt j
increased acreage will more than
make up for any falling off and the |
whole crop will be as large at-, if ,
larger than, that of last yrar.
