Troy, Ala., August 2, 1SS4.— Editors Telegraph & Messenger: in your issUe of the 30th inst., I notief a dispatch from Bainbridge, Gal giving an account of the lynching of T. K. Brantley, Jr., stating he was from this place. 1 desire to say he was from Sumpter county, Ala., Where his father now lives, a high- toned and respected citizen. He came to Troy in September 1883, and remained uutil March 18S4, during which time he was salesman with the firm of T. K. Brantly &S011. During his stay in Troy he conducted himself in a gentlemanly manner at all times, and won many friends who are pained as shocked to hear of his unfortuate death. I received a letter a few days ago stating he was insane. His brother received one stating the AFRAID OF GRAVE RORHERS.

Noriustown, Pa., August 2.— Charles Johnson, aged So, an ec centric bachelor, was buried in the Norristown cemetery yesterday, lie had always had a great horror ol grave robbers. His cdfiin rested on a stone foundation. An iron cover w is laid on the coffin I'd ami firmly riveted to an iron fr.ims work that was securely fastened into the stone work below. A stone vault surrounded the coffin, and the vault was closed by a flagstone, which was securely cemented down. Thirty ycais ago Mr. Johnson placed $500 in his vest pocket, saying to his bachelor brother: “Ike, when I die use this money to bury me til such a war that grave robbers can’t get at me.” Ike replied: All right, Charlie, hid brother and either place him an asylum or convey him to his home near Livingston. Ala., but before he , '*’ ns had gone halt the distance he saw the sad intelligence of his death in your paper. From what I know ot the young man, I feel satisfied he Was insane, as the charges brought against him are so unlike him. He was naturally one of the most warm-hearted boys in the world, and never in all his dealings showed a disposition to be cruel to anything.

Isaac, true to his promise, "buried his brother right.” He ordered a rosewood casket, and personally superintend ed the arrangements. They had kept the hotel together and then went into the lime burning bu iness. They accumulated near ly $200,000. They never married, but kept house by themselves and their dwelling was as neat and clean as a pin. Chotlcs suffered from a stroke of paralysis five years ago. Both brothers had a horror of bur- glars. Charles made two wills, but he had a superstition that if he signed either one of them he would surely die. He postponed signing until it was too lute, and lie died, therefore, without a will. His fortune will now be divided between his brother and distant relatives. Going Into Battle. Cincinnati Times Star. Said Capt. George W. Stone yesterday : “I don’t believe any, man ever went into battle without feel ing frightened. I know I never did. I’ll tell you when a mau feels badly. It’s when he’s forming his men into line for a big battle while a tide skirmish file is kept up ail the time. Every minute or so some one, maybe your best friend, stand- ing right next to you, will shriek out: “Oh, my God!”-and f»ll back dead, yet you cannot lot your men fire, lor the at my must be drawn up first. There is plenty of time to think. You don’t dure to retaliate in any way. The next bullet may find your heart, and your children will lie left fatherless. It is a moment that tries the bravest man, because lie has to stand quiet and lake it all. But when the order comes to fight and the excitement of the battle arises, fear passes away. You have something to do. You have a duty to perform at any cost. Bullets drive i.ito the ground at your feet, sending up little clouds of dust. They whistle past your *ars and cut holes in your clothing. Shells and shrapnel kill your com rades and leave you living, and soon there comes a feeling that some good fortune has preserved you and will protect you, an J the fiesire to do as much damage to the enemy alone fills your mind. That was my experience in the army, and I don’t believe that, the man lived who did not feel at the commence ment of a fight that he would rather be somewhere else."
