Found Dead.
Overheated and Drank too Much
Water thfe Probable Cause;
Last Monday a woman, Miss Hol
loway, by name, left Wnr Smith's in
Deer Head cove for Itisiug Fawn,
around the point or foot of Fo* moun
tain, She had two children with her,
o little girl of seven and an infant in
her arms. Late;: in the day the little
girl arrived iu Rising Fawn, carrying
the baby with her, a distance of two
miles, ane announced that the mother
Was dead on the side of the mountain,
near a spring.
A party of citizens at once started
for the place. 6he waR found as the
child had stated, at Popular spring,
just above Geo. Cnreton’s still-house.
The only way of accounting for her
death is, that in the walk and carrying
her infant, she bad become overheated
and drank too much of the almost
ice cold water that flows from the
spring. No other cause of death
could be raised or suggested, and she
was buried without an inquest being
he Id.

A Youth and a Maid Walk 25 Miles
(to Have the Knot Tied.
Last Wednesday morning, a young
couple, whose thermometer of devo
ional regard for each other was of a
sufficient number of degrees to coun
teract the oppressiveness of the hot
rays of the sun, came walking into
town, from Valley Head, a distance
of 25 miles. Neither of them pre
sented a very tidy appearance ; but
true love is never abashed, and they
walked direct to the Ordinary’s office,
aud called for a license before the}
had hardly taken their seats, which
was given them. Dr. Ketcherside
was sent for, and in a few minutes,
in the presence of tew witnesses, who
can testify to the fact, they were
made to see everything in the same
light—they are one.
The young man was twenty-five,
and young lady, apparently, fifteen.
They are from ton mileb below Gads
den, a distance nearly one hundred
miles. They rode as far as Valley
Head.

Accepted and Spllced-Love Often
Timid, But More Frequently Bold.
Yesterday morning another couple,
from Alabama, near Portersville, ar
rived m town on the early train, and
called for a license with a preacher
throwed in as a special inducement.
The Ordinary acquiesced and issuod the
required papers. Rev. J. L. Prater was
called in, who pronounced the few sim
ple words that bind to trusting and
loving souls, and launches them to
gether out on the world in a boat of
eternal happiness or eternal misery, to
“sink or swim, live or dio, survive or
perish”—no difference, so their hearts
cling to each other till they reach the
landing.
The difference between this couple
was quite the reverse of the majority.
The bride has enjoyed the sunshine and
roses of twenty-one summerrs, and was
quite handsome, and possessed with
fasciuating manners, and a most capti
vating and charming articulation of
speech.
The groom was'a handsome and very
modest young man, possessed with the
wisdom and experience of eighteen
years of life in this cool and calcula
ting world ; ho was innocent, therefore
to be loved.
They were married at the Hotel de
Bell, at early morn, and the breakfast
did serve as a marriage feast. O, happy
youth! 0, happy breakfast morn !
May it always seem bright, and never

Was Smith Guilty.
The excitement that prevailed over
tho country when Porters house was
burned on Sand Mountain a few years
ago, is still fresh in the minds of the
people* George Smith, of Carpenter,
Ala., was hung for the crime. John
Greyson is serving a life sentence in
the penitentiary as accessory. Adam
Freeman, of Jackson connty, died a
few days ago and confessed that he
committed the crime. There is a ser
iousness in trying a man for his life
and liberty that the popular mind is
not educated on as it should be, is .not
only demonstrated in this case but |
many others.
SAM COOK,
He Refutes the Statements as
to the Treatment of His
Father,
W. D; Bradley Testifies to the
Truth of His IStateuient*
Ed. Times see a statement in
your paper of Friday, Julg 15th, con
cerning me ; saying that I had abused
my father. I want you to state to
your authority for sftying that I kick
ed, cursed and abused my father. I
Will say to you, your authority or in
foimation is a lie. The cause of the
trouble is, my sister, Mts* Swite, has
been trying to get my lather to go to
Trenton and get hitnself and mother
on the county. I asked father to
stay at home and pay no attention to
her, but he would go to see her; and
when he came back home, he would
tell mother that he was going tomovg,
her to the poor house, which seemed
to run her nearly crazy. I told fa
ther if nothing else would do he
could go, but I intended to take care
of mother myself. I also told him
when he first come to my house he
was welcome to stay as long as he
lived, and which lie would have done,
if Mrs. fcwite had not meddled. I
will prove what I say if necessary. I
am truly sorry the sad news reached
people of the county in the shape it
did. I will try to give satisfaction as
soon as 1 can, by people who know
how I have treated my parents. I
have nothing to regret, only tire death
of my father. I want to face the
man or woman that will say that I
kicked, cursed and abused father.
Any ono that believes I did, or wants
to know the particulars are welcome
to come and see ruy mother and be
convinced. Yon can publish this if
you wish. . Respectfully,
S. C. Cook.
Cole City, July 18th, 1887.
Ed. Times :—I saw in yonr paper
the .announcement of the death of
grandaddy Cook. I wish to explain
to you a few things in regard his
treatment. Since he left his son’s
house, ha came to my house, on the
‘2sth of Jnne and stayed all night at
John Cowan’s and said he was going
to his daughter’s; he went from there
to Jim Rains’ ; and then to Mr. Smith
and from there to Mr. Grosses’; and
from there to Trenton. Yon stated
that he showed signs ot ill-treatment,
I did not hear him complain while at
my house, and I am satisfied that Sam
Cook did not kick and abuse his father
as the paper stated. I have heard
Sam tell lii9 father he was welcome
to stay with him as long as him and
granny lived, and that he wonld do
the best he could for them, and I
believe if grandaddy bad of been satis
fied and content he would, for he
seems to think a great deal of them -
Grandaddy was very childish, and
teased him by saying be would move
granny to the poor house. I am know
ing to Sam being away from home at
work from Monday morning till Sat
urday night. I am satisfied that Sam
has done all he could to make his
father and mother comfortable. Gran
daddy came to me before lie went to
live with Sam and asked my advice,
and said that him and granny were
old and feeble, and that be vould go
and live with Sam I told him to go
and bo satified; that 1 believed that
Sam wonld do the best he could tor
them; and I believe that he done all
that was in his power to make them
comfortable. But grandaddy has seem
ed dissatisfied for some time. I coufd
say more, but do not think it necessa
ry. I don’t want to see a man run
down that don’t deserve to be. If this
is not enough to satisfy the people,
'they are welcome to write to me; I
will cheerfully answer any question
concerning Sam’s treatment of gran
daddy and granDj. Respectfully,
U. D. Bradley.

What True Merit Will Do.
The unprecedented sale of Buschke s
German Syrup within a few years has
astonished the worid. Without doubt it
is the safest and best remedy ever dis
covered for the speedy and effectual cure
of Coughs, Colds and the severest Lung
troubles. It acts on an entirely different
principle from the usual prescriptions
given by physicians, as it does not dry
up a Cough and leave the disease still
in the system, but on the contrary re
moves the cause of the trouble, heals the
parts affected and leaves them in a pure
ly healthy condition. A bottle kept in the
house for use when the disease makes its
appearance,will save doctor’s bills and a
long spell of serious illness. A trial will
convince you of these facts. It is posi
tively sold by all druggists and general
dealers in the land. Price 75c, largo bot’l
