{Special.)—Messrs. William Spivey,
Dave Godfrey, Alexander Rowe and
two' or three boys were out pos¬
sum hunting. Passing a negro
house where there was a frolic the
party was attacked by Ed Powell
and Anderson Edge,colored. A gen¬
eral figbfc ensued. Anderson Edge
began abusing Mr. Leo Rowe, where¬
upon Mr. Rowe knocked Anderson
down. The darkey rising to bis feet
knocked Mr. Rowe down and jump¬
ed upon him. Mr. Spivey pulled
Edge off Mr. Rowe when Ed Powell,
colored, standing off fifteen feet
threw a rock, knocking Mr. Spivey
down inflating a painful flesh wound
just above the left eye. Mr. Spivey
was rendered senseless by the blow
and while in that condition was run
upon by Anderson Edge and Btraek
with a stick. Green Wales, colored,
took Mr. Spivey’s part and knocked
Anderson Edge down three or four
times with rocks and a stick, inflict¬
ing a severe flesh wound each time.
Ed Powell skipped. after knocking
Mr. Spivey down. Dr. Mathews was
sent for and dressed Mr. Spivye’s
wounds and reports him as doing
well. V
Two Sunday Fnnerals.
Miss Ettienne Sawtell, the daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Sawtell, who
died on Friday night, was buried
from the Preshyterian chureb at
10:30 o’clock. Rev. M. McN.
McKay, who conducted the funeral
services, spoke in a beautiful and im¬
pressive manner of the young life
which had been stilled forever by a
summons from its maker. The
church was becomingly draped with
flowers emblematical of the purity
and youth of the deceased. The
floral offerings were very handsome.
The parents and family have the
heartfelt sympathy of this entire
community in their affliction. God
in his infinite wisdom and mercy
comfort them in their sorrow.
The second funeral was that ofB.,J.
Jones, the gentleman who accidently
shot himself at the Curtis House
on Saturday and who died on Sunday
morning at 5:30 o’clock,'and took
place the same afternoon. The body
was in charge of the Knights of
Honor of this place, who escorted it
to the 4 P. M. traiu and sent it to
Woodbury, where the interment took
place. Mr. Jones was a widower,
having lost his wife about two years
ago and he leaves two little children.
His wife is buried at Woodbury and
he was laid by her side. Mr. Jones
came here from Thomaston only a
few weeks ago", he being the IT. S.
Collector of this district stationed
here, and he has in that short time
by his gentlemanly conduct and
pleasing manners made many friends.
His untimely taking off is very much
deplored. His father, who is a very
aged man, and a number of relatives
were with him at his death. He was
39 years of age.
