TIIE WEEKLY TELEGRAPH AND MESSENGER, FRIDAY JULY 25 18S4. MULHOLLAND IN TROUBLE. A Young Man Reeling Behind the Prleon Bara. About seven or eight months ago there came to Macon with hia young wife, from Springfield, 0., a young man who auto graphed his name upon the register of Brown's Hotel as George G. Mulhoiland. By means of an acquaintance with a prom inent gentleman of Kentucky, who was here on a visit, Mulhoiland was introduced into the Macon club rooms, but was afterward debarred from the privileges of that institution, presum ably by resign of having taken up perma nent resident: in Macon. Mnlholland is of slender build and of extremely youthful appearance. His tailor was faultless, mid bis immacnlate ahirt front was always crowned with a cra vat ot snowy whiteness. He was so faultless in his attire.*so dignified in his step, and sodainty in his tastes, that a man always forgot himself as the young gentleman passed and fell into the wo man's habit of turning around and look ing after him. By being so well eyed, it was found that while be carried with him the apparent air of a well bred gentle man in good circumstances, he ■was nearly always seen in company with the sporting fraterniw. This fact aroused (he suspicion that the shapely lingers of the solt white hand deftly turned the aces and trumps. This was mere suspicion, however, as no one cou!%lie found to say that Mulhoiland had aught to do with the tiger. Many stories were put in circulation about him, owing to the air of mystery that envelled his invisible bank account, and among them was that he was an engraver, and another was that he had married a wealthy lady against her moth er's wishes. That the shapely fingers could form chalk letters upon the black board of Cromeline's pool business in a manner lo evoke admiration, was consid erable evidence that, if not an engraver, be wu a draughtsman of no ordinary merit. That the latter story was true, few doubted, as be was lavish with money during the first four or five months of Ins stay in Macon. Ho paid Brown's Hotel over six hundred dollars for Iwiartl alone. Tiring of hotel life, and his wife de manding a more quiet method of living. Mulhoiland rented one of those pretty cot tages belonging to Dannenhergand Doody. comer Walnut nud Fourth streets, paying therefor $30 per month. Not quite two months ago be began having his meals gent to his house from the dining rooms of the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railroad, of whicli Captain Frank Hervey is manager. At the expiration of the first month. Captain Hervey went to him for the money. He told the Captain that he was short, but was expecting some money, and when It arrived he would settle the bill. The meals were sent on as usual and Captain Hervey continued to ask for Ids pay with no favorable indication of reward. A few days ago Captain Hervey received an intimation that Mulhoiland was pre paring to leave Macon. Yesterday the Captain had an attachment is sued from Justice Freeman's office, and the attachment was aerved on some household effects and a trunk. The levy satisfied, farther signs looked to Capt. Hervey that his boarder was about to leave soot er than waa at first suspected, and his arrest was ordered. Officers Ooodroe and Doc Fennell pro ceeded to Mulholiond's residence about 8 o'clock last night, and proceeded to ar rest him. He demanded a warrant, but finally quietly submitted, his wife fainting through excitement. He was taken to the barracks, where he thus related his aide cf the story: “I came here about seven or eight months ago from Sprtngeld, O.. with my wife. I bad just married, and I wanted to take np my residence in Macon, and go into tbasporting goods business. I board- ed at Brown's Hotel for four months, pay ing my board promptly. I left there and rented a house from Mr. Dannenberg and paid thirty dollars ped month promptly for IL I accidentally met Captain Hervey and be was desirous of sending meals to me. I told him I was a little short at the Ume, but he said that waa all right Abont a month ago he came to me and I reiterated the prevloua statement of being short of funds. My wife waa taken down sick and necessarily incurred considerable expense. In addition to her other sickness she was taken with chills and fevers. For two weeks it waa known that she was going back home,as there was no necessity for keeping inch a matter secret. She was able to travel, and yesterday 1 had every thing packed ready for her to go. In the afternoon an officer arrived and levied upon some of my goods, Including a trunk containing my wtfa'a clothing. In (act all the goods levied npon belonged to my wife. They came here in her name and were received by her. It was our In tention lor her to go home and arrange money matters in aucb a way that I would t»- enabled to pay off my indebtedness in Macon. 8h* it well fixed, and so is n father. After the attachment was made, went np town to consult a lawyer. Mr. Bartlett, and thought the matter waa ail over so far as my wife's leaving was eon. cerned. Judge of my surprise when I fonnd two officers at my house to arrest me and bring me here! I bad no Intention of leaving. Sh* waa to go and I wu to re main here. My wife had a high fever alt this afternoon, hut there if a lady and her husband. Mr. Hirst, living in the house, and 1 suppose they will take care of ber." How matters will be arranged to-day is not known. At any rata it wu rather a rare sight to see Mulhoiland in bis fault less attire, Including the snow white cra vat, walking about In the barracks cell under the flicker of a gu jet. A CRAZY WOMAN A SUDDEN DEATH. An Old Man Dies Suddenly Among Btran- gera. Coroner Hodnett iut night abont 8 o'clock received notice that a man bad died very suddenly at the boarding house of Mrs. 8. L. Fletcher, comer Mulberry and Fourth streets. He proceeded to the house and considered the circumstances sufficient to bare an Inquest held and a jury was im paneled. The jury found lying upon a bed in a small sbed room the body of an old man apparently abont sixty years of age. He bail no shoes on. and wore a blue flannel shirt and wob without vest. His pants w ere old and ragged. The face was an Intelligent one and wore a calm expression. His Uajr amt beard were white. The only witness sworn was Mrs. Fletch er, who testified that the man gave his name as Webster Mills, and bis valisobore the words "Soronto, Orange county. Fla." He came to her house at noon last Wednesday and anplied for a room. want ing someone to take care of him. He said am- old room would do for him. He looked so pitiful, and as the sun was very hot, she told him he might come in. She gavo him the little shed-room and gave him ali the attention she could. He complained of having been sick with chronic diarrlio s for the past sixteen mouths and bad been taking for it a fluid extract of liux vomica. He appeared to be very intelligent, and though feeble ate ravenously ot ail food that did not contain grease. He asked Mrs, Fletcher to write to his daughter in Orange county and to tell her of ills arrival this far on his way to Winterville, but as Mrs. Fletcher wap busy at the time she neg lected to get his daughter’s name. He said he liked Macon, and spoke of settling here and planting a vineyard. Last night he sat upon the back steps and pieced his head under the faucet and dampened his hnir with tho water. She was busy arrang ing tbe supper table and talked to him about an hour before supper. She sent ids supper to him by a bov, but tbe boy soon returned and said that fie could not arouse the old gentleman and believed him to be dead. She went at once to the rcotu and found the boy’s surmise to be then notified the coroner. The verdict of tbe jury was tha r to his death from natural causes, to the jury. Sick Headache.
