A Horrible Accident,
Occurred at Mr. John O. Perry’s
mill, ten miles north of this, place,
yesterday morning at 8 o’clock. A
young man at work at the mill was
bearing off lumber from the saw
while it was running, and iu taking
a piece from it the timber came in
contact forward with the saw, which jerked quick
him upon it, and as
as thought, he was literally sawed
in pieces. His left leg was cut
entirely off and thrown some ten
paces ; his right arm was sawed and
mashed off; his right leg was cut
almost entirely off at the knee and
his left hand cut off. His body
lived was also terribly 2 o’clock bruised, yet he
until p. m. perfectly
conscious of everything about him,
when death came to his relief.
Hardman was called to him
found him too far gone to
any assistance. He died one
after the doctor reached his
side.-- IValtcm Coimtjj Vidette.
Major Moses in Athens,
Last night, according to appoint¬
ment, Major II. J. Moses made a
speech at the court house in favor of
Gov. quitt Colquitt. speech that It was the been first made Col¬
has
here during the present campaign,
and the Colquitt party was jubilant.
The spacious hall of the Court¬
house was filled that those who ar¬
rived late could not get seats, and
many stood during the entire ad¬
dress.
At this late hour we connot at¬
tempt to make a report or even a
synopsis of the speech. The
speaker took up the charges that
have been so freely made against
Gov. seriatim. Colquitt, The and Alston disposed fee, the of them
tentiary the charge of undue- peni¬
matter,
taxation and the other charges were
all taken up, analyzed, treated in a
calm clear manner, and very ef¬
fectually had disposed of. These
matters never been presented to
an Athens audience from Goy.
Colquitt’s stand point, and there
was the closest attention paid to the
distinguished speaker as he went
through and them exibited in a the lawyer-like real man¬
ner, truth of
the case.
Now and then there was a flash of
wit that put the audience into a roar
or brought out a good, old-fashioned
yell. The most of the speech, how¬
ever, was quiet and argumentative,
and evidently made a deep impres¬
sion.
The attention paid was patient
and respectfully throughout. The
Norwood men who were there made
no demonstration. One or two
questions were asked—we su npose
by disposed opponents of them -but in such Major Moses that
a way
the expeiirnent was not repeated.
A large portion of the audience
were colored people, and they
showed very plainly that they were
on the side of Colquitt.
Taken altogether the speech was
a success. It gave the people an
opportunity which of to them hear some truths
many had not heard
before, and these truths undoubtedly
carried weight with them. The
S-. meeting C. was presided over by Col.
Dobbs, president of the Colquitt
Club .—Daily Banner Yil/k.
