A COLUMBIA COUNTY YOUNG MAN GETS A
NICE BUM.
We are informed that there is a
young man in this county who has by
the death of an old gentleman iu an
other State, fell heir to the sum of i
$2,500. It seems that several years ‘
ago the young man refered to, while
■ traveling', formed the acquaintance of |
his benefactor and stayed with him I
for some time, and was very kind 1
to him. Not long since the old gen-
| tieman died and in his wi.l, we are
informed, designated the amount
j above mentioned to one of Colum
. bin’s most genial sons.

I
COURT WEEK .'.ND WHAT IS '
BEING DONE. '
Very dusty. i
Good attendance.
Cool nights. i
The Hotel de Kelly is being liber
ally patro ;ized. Fare good. <
An unusual number of bailiffs at (
work hunting up witnesses.
W. R. Malone brought up Strout, ’
the professional burglar, from Au
gusta, on Tuesday. Ho plead guilty ,
and was given ten years in the peni- ,
tentiary. i
Mr. E. W. Jones was unanimously l
elected bailiff to the Grand Jury.
Hon. Geo. T. Barnes is here shak- |
ing hands with his many admirers. ,
Mr. E. S Harrison, of Thomson, is i
here representing a New York life ,
insurance company. Success to you, i
brother H. i
Jackson Kelly did from typhoid .
fever near this place on Tuesday us- ;
ternoon.
Mr. W. A. Sturgis, one of our
most successful farmers, is in attend i
ance upon Superior Court.
Dr. James S. Hamilton, of Athens,
was here on Tuesday.
Sol Gener.il pro torn Carroll is put- 1
ting in some master strokes for the i
State. '
The Chronicle is represented here I
by Mr. Henry, an affable gentleman
and a good collector.
Rev. T. B. Reynolds, formerly of ,
this county, but riow of Florida, spent
Wednesday at Appling.
Hon. S. C. Lamkin is here attend- ,
ing Court. ,
Drs. Holliday and Peeples are in
attendance upon Court. ,
As previously reported, court con
vened Monday, Judge H. C. Roney
presiding, with the Solicitor-General
in his accustomed >eat to look after
the State’s interest. Sheriff Magru
der ami his lieutenants, Gray, Hall
and Whitaker, in their respective '
places. Mr. Olive, Clerk, seemed at (
home in the discharge of his duty,
and, too, Uncle Brad was seated in a i
high chair and his voice rang out as
I usual, “order, gentlemen, order in the
I court room I”
In addition to the local bar, I). C |
i Moore, Eaq., we have the fol- i
lowing visiting attorneys : Hon. j
W. M. Reese, of Washington; Eb. T.
Williams, M. P. Carroll, Hon. W. D.
Tutt, Sullivan and Capers, of Augusta;
Hon. Thos. E. Watson, I*. B Johnson,
Herk Johnson and J. T. West, of
Thomson.
At the usual hour bis Honor Judge
Roney organized the court, when 18
grand jurors answered and were i
sworn iu, instructed to retire, elect
foreman, etc. In due time they re
turned, having elected F. A. Tisober- I
VOL VI NO 3
lake foreman, with J. A. Lamkin
clerk. Tho charge of the Court was
timely, coveringjill the ground and
outlining tho duties of the grand in
quest of this county. After the.charge
the jury retired and entered vigoious
ly upon the discharge of their duty.
The jury being composed of good
material we look for good results at
their hands. Slow progress was made
on Monday, owing to the absence of
witnesses. Tho attendance upon this
term of court is unsually large, and
the amount of business correspond
ingly great and tho presumption is
that the greater part of the week will
bo consumed, principally on the
criminal side of the court. Tho
Pearre-Lamur case, in which only
questions of law are involved, will be
passed upon by Judge Roney in vaca
tion. Thus facilitating civil business
very materially and enabled the court
to take up the criminal docket Tues
day evening.
Wo regret Sol-Gen. Wright’s indis
position was of sufficient magnitude
to cause him to leave for his home in
Augusta, where he will bo tenderly
cared for by his devoted wile. M. P.
Carroll, Esq., was appointed by the
court to look after the Shite cases.—
Mr. Carroll not being conversant with
the nature of the Wall case, which
was being conducted by Mr. Wright*
it was continued.
On Tuesday tho Clary-Ramsey case
camo up for trial, iu which two
giants at law met. Carroll for the
plaintiff and Tutt for the defence.—•
Verdict for the defence.
Court reporter Sullivan had quite
an unenviable experience in a run
away upon his return from Harlem,
in which ho was pretty badly used up
and a buggy completely demolished.
Wedneiday afternoon.—The court
has been busily engaged in trying
criminal cases to-day. In the case of
the State vs. Jas. Blanchard, colored,
charged with burglary in the night
time, Tutt and Carroll met again,
making able ami exhaustive speeches.
At 3 o’clock the jury retired, return
ing at 3:45 with a verdict of guilty.
From the outlook now the entire
week will be consumed. We will give
full proceedings next week. Jit
A llislrming Inikiit.
