THE AMERICUS DAILY TIME8-REC0RDER: THURSDAY, APRIL 23, 1891.
't
Rather Peculiar.
Baififf Shock Cobb arrested Raleigh
Jackson, colored, yesterday on a war
rant for obtaining money under false
pretenses. The warrant was sworn out
by Andrew Jackson, the negro's father.
The trial took place, and it was shown,
that young Jackson, only about eighteen
years old, went to Matt Hart, a negro
storekeeper, and told him his father
sent him for some money. Hart let him
have it, and afterwards asked the old
man lor it.
This le*’ to the boy’s father having
him arrested on the above mentioned
charge.
The case was sett) ad by the old man
paying all cost provided his son gave
bond to work for him until of age,
Hart agreed to stand this bond of fifty
dollars, and everything was smoothed
over. It was a rather peculiar ending
to a trial.
Another Rise.
Prices are booming.
Everything seems to be going up, and
although very high now. the price is still
climbing.
For instance corn has been selling for
some time at high prices, and people
have been grumbling at the figure paid.
In the past two days it lias jumped up
several cents higher.
Hay, too, has climbed up in price.
Flour has advanced 25 cents per barrel.
Meat, also, is up.
These advances hold good all over the
country, and those who have been hold
ing commodities of this kind have made
much money.
Corn is scarcer than it has ever been
at this time of the year, and is now-
worth over a dollar at wholesale.
Taken Suddenly 111.
Tom Bussell is the well-known negro
porter at Carters shoe store. He has
not been well for some time, and yester
day morning was taken suddenly and
violently ill. Medical attendance was
summoned, and at last accounts he was
resting easy, although not entirely out
of danger.
