Pete Lingold Kills His
Brother, John
Wesley.
John Wesley Lingold was shot and
killed by his brother, Pdte Lingold,
last Tuesday night, in the Southern
portion of-the county, below Scoltsboro.
After the shooting Pete Lingold
came (o this city, niul informed Sheriff
Prosser of what he had done and sur
rendered himself. Coroner Scott went
to tho scene ol the killing Wednesday
morning and. held an inquest. The
following jury was summoned. Dr. T.
,M. Hall, Messrs. W. H. H. Barnes, S.
Wheeler, C. Combes, P, C. Cormanni
and I. *V. McMullen. After hearing
tho evidence the jury returned a verdict
of justifiable homicide, and Lingold
was released from jail.
The lacts as gathered at the inquest
are as follows: The t-.vo brothers came
to this city Tuesday and spent the day.
After the afternoon performance ot
Robinson’s circus, they left tor their
home, in a buggy, accompanied by a
son of Pete. Both were under the in
fluence ot liquor. Just before reaching
their destination John got out ot the bug
gy, and Pete alter waiting several rain
utes for him to get back in the vehicle,
went on to his home. Later John came
to the house, and went into the dining
room, where his brother was, and told
him to be sure and send his buggy
home in the morning. He then began
cursing him for leaving him in the
road. The fuss continued until John
advunced on Pete with a knife and at«
tempted to cut him. The latter pulled
his pistol and shot twice—one of the
bullets struck John in the mouth and
caused Ins death.
The Confederate Monument.
Members ot the R. E, Lee Chapter
of the Daughters of the Confederacy in
this city are deeply interested in fixing
the exact date on which the Confederate
monument in the city cemetery was
erected. . There is no doubt that the
monument was placed in position about
the first of 18G3, for the Federal Union
of Dec, 31st, 18G7, gives notice that on
Thursday night, Jan. 2nd 1868, the
“ladies of the soldiers monument asso
ciation will give a supper at Newell’s
Hall to raise funds to finish paying for
the monument,” The files of the pa-
per have been searched for lurther in
formation, but none can be found.
Miss Mamie Andrews, President of
the Chapter, has received a note from
Mrs. A. M. Cook, of Midway, in which
ske’gives a quotation from her journal,
dated Dec, 30th, 1867. This quota
tion refers to the above supper, and
says that the monument cost only about
three hundred dollars, but was a “testi-.
mony ol the deep abiding affection in
the hearts of the people for our
soldiers,”
There is no doubt that Milledgeville
was the first city in the State to honor
the Confederate dead with a monument
to their memory. It is of great ims
portance therefore that the exact date
be ascertained, and if any of our citi
zens can give such information they
will confer a favor upon the association
and place a patriotic wreath upon the
brow of their fair city.

hon, F. a. duUIgnon’s Tribute to
.Memory of “Our Mammy”
Memorial to be Placed Over the Grave
ot Faithful Ndgress, Who Was Long
a Nurse in the duBignon Family
at Milledgeville—She was
very old.
From tho Savannah Press, 29th inst.
The Press has already mentioned
the fact that Hon. F, G. duBignon is
having a small memorial stone prepared
for the grave ot his old nurse, who
died on the difBignon homestead two
years ago. The stone, a plain granite
block, contains the name of the old
woman, Hester Ann Buffington, the
dates of her birth and death, and the
words “Our Mammy^” and “Faithful
unto the end.”
Mr duBignon, in speaking of the old
negro this morning, said that she died
two years ago in the 92nd year of her
age, and that she had not only nursed
his mother in infancy, but had also
nursed him and his oldest child. She
was, he said, one of the most faithful
characters lie ever knew, and the fact
that a suitable granite block was to mark
the last resting place of the devoted
slave and servant met with the approval
of riot only the entire members of his
old family, but also all those who had
known the faithful old “Mammy.”
The stone will be forwarded to Mil-
ledgeville in the course of the next
day or ffvo.
Mrs. Julia F. Parker is receiving
millinery daily, and she irivites the la
dies to call at her store, and inspect
her goods.
