DuBose Eglestox, Postmaster. Meeting of Medical Survivors.? It is proposed to hold in Columbia, on the 10th of November, a meeting of the Medical Survivors from this State, of the Confederate Army and Navy. All surgeons and assistant surgeons are cordially invited to attend. The object of the meeting is to organize a Sarvi vors' Association, and to bring the members of that part of the service into closer relations with each other. Those unable to attend and desire to become members of the Association, are requested to send their names, rank and duty to which they were assigned. Guilty of Manslaughter. ?Geo. S. Turner, the wealthy mill owner, of Spartanburg, has been found guilty of manslaughter, and sentenced to five years in the State penitentiary. It will te remembered that in June last a dispute arose between him and a friendless German about a settlement nf wticr*? at Mr. Turner's cotton mill "* " "?? in Spartanburg coantv, and during the dispute Mr. Turner picked up a j shot gun and killed his? victim instantly. Notice of appeal has been served, and pending tha appeal the prisoner was released on a $5,000 bond. A Cutting Affray.?From parties who retnrned from from Atlanta, we learned that Mr. R. H. Means, of our county, was severely cut in a diffi-| cultv in Atlanta ]ast week. "We have been unable to learn just how the difficulty commenced, but Mr. Means received four cuts in the throat, one in the arm and still another in the side. After being cut he walked to a drug store where his wounds were dresed, and he was then taken to the hospital where he would receive proper attention. At last accounts he was doing well, and would be able to return to his home this week. His assailant was unknown, and at last accounts had not been arrested. A Painful Accident.?Mr. J. Y. Stewart, of our county, met with a painful and perhaps very serious accident during his trip to the Fiedmont Fair last week. When at a little station about fifteen miles this side of Atlanta, he and a number of other gentlemen were standing on the platform between two cars, just as the train stopped the crowd surged against Mr. Stewart, and in the push bis foot slipped between the bumpers of the cars and was mashed very severely. The accident seems to have been the result of the negligence of the engineer. Mr. Stewart was in town on Saturday on crutches, and we are informed has brought suit against the Air Line .Railroad for damages. A Sudden Death.?On Monday 1 ' T-T? /-I -\r nigm last -ur. ouna o. iuynu, ?uv resides near Dawkins, eat a hearty supper, and at the time was feeling as well as usual. He lived with his sister, Miss Mary Morris, aud during the night she heard her brother groaning as if unwell, and immediately went to see him. She found him in an unconscious state, and at once sent for assistance, but when she returned he had breathed his last. It is supposed that he died of heart disease. An inquest was held on the day following. On Tuesday the Rev. B. F. Corley was to have been married to the sister of the deceased, Miss Mary Morris, but when he went for his bride he found a house of mourning, and the wedding was postponed- The afflicted family have the sympathy of the entire comt munity in their bereavement. u A. Good Suggestion?Our esteemed temporary, the Columbia Begister, [ | suggests that a body of old Coufed, erate veterans would be an appro! priate representation of our State at i the laying of the corner stone of the monument to General Lee, which will take place in Richmond on the 27th inst. Our State should be represented by all means, and it is almost ; impossible to secure the attendance of any of our military companies at this season of the vcar. bein^ composed mo?tly of young men whose time is wot their own. A band of veterans who followed the noble Lee in his campaigns, would be a most appropriate representation. General Iiamp-' ton is the chief marshal of the occa- I sion, and he would doubtless be pleased to see snch a representation. The suggestion is a good one, and we hojle it will be carried out. A Happy Wedding.? On Thursdayevening Mr. Charles Cathcart, accompanied by a few friends, left town on a very important mission. It was the occasion of occasions for our young townsman, who was to take on the same evening, as hi< bride, Miss Mary Clowney, daughter of Mr. Moses Clowney, of Buckhead. In the presence of a number of invited guests the happy couple were pronounced man and wife. On Friday the wedding party returned to-Winnsboro, and in the evening a reception was held at the residence of the groom's mother. A number of the friends of the groom had been invited to attend and welcome the newly-wedded pair. We join with others in wishing- the bride and groom a happy and pleasant voyage over the sea of life. G. jr. CJIA. WJE OUT) & SOU'S 11 IS FLY. 3fessrs. Editors: In Tuesday's issue we notice the "card" of Messrs. Williford, Doty & Co. and Ellison, in which they express anxiety to know who Mr. Hull refers to in his communication of the loth inst. We would state that we are the parties referred to, and also assure these brothers in business that there is no cause for alarm or anxiety on their part. It has been suggested "to us that the solicitu. tiou on the part of these gentlemen arises from the feeling of the Devil towards Tom Walker. Tom Walker was a Boston man who was meaner than the Devil, as was proved in this wise. Tom Walker formed a co-partnership with the Devil to carry on a usury business, and divide the profits for a long term of years, at the end of which Tom was to deliver himself up to the Devil as part of the contract. Tom had a wonderful run of business and made lar^e sums of money, but some time before the contract expired he was driving such a hard bargain with a poor, helpless debtor that the Devil himself got enraged that any one should be meaner than he was, aud in his indignation lie mounted a big, black horse, dashed up to the usurer's office, and, snatching Tom by the hair of the head, bore him olT to hell. It is needless to say we do not entertain this opinion, but presume that their anxiety springs from that "fellow-feeling which makes us wondrous kind," and that their "card" was published in order that a brother should have this opportunity of vindicating himself. The following is the transaction referred to by Mr. Hall: On March 12th, 1886, a farmer purchased a mule from us, and gave us his note for $192.50, with his father as surety, together I with a mortgage ou the mule. This note bore ten per cent, interest irom date, and was payable October 1st, 18S6. At maturity the note was not paid, and after waiting on the farmer abont five weeks the mule was sold under the mortgage, before the Court House door, m~this place, to the highest bidder. So far, is there anything in our procedure at all extraordinary or differing from the usual course pursued by horse dealers, or in fact any holder of a chattel mortgage? The "mule brought 880. Not half | the price the farmer paid for il! It is true, however, the animal had been in the hands of a negrc tenant, had been over-worked, half-fed and was about as "fat as a match," when put up for sale in the fall. Isn't this the traditional "lien" mule, which we see on every fall sales-day sold before the Court Houses in South Carolina? Is it the fault of the horse dealer or purchaser that he is in this fix? The ?S0 we gave due credit on the note. Then we nlaced the note in the hands of our attorney, Col. Rion, with instructions , to collect the balance due, and Col. Rion commenced action against the farmer and the surety on his note. Before the February Court the farmer came to us and requested us to stop the action, and he would pay part of the note and purchase another mule. To this we agreed, and he paid us about $60 on the note, and bought a mule from us for $175. Then he gave us his note for the balance due on old note, and 'for the $175, price of mule, which amounted to $234.50. This new note was payable on October 1st, 18S7, and bore ten per cent, interest from its date. It was paid at maturity. Now please show us any hardships or injustice if you can, for this is the transaction from beginning to end. As to the bale of cotton paid on mule, we know nothing. The farmer has not, as Mr. Hall says, paid "$302.45 for a $125 mule," and we are surprised that one of Mr. YT^ 11 ?r? infill* rrr\ i , 1 r\ mobn thn ') CCfM' XJ.au 3 lUltllijjUilVV IV/ IUWUV UMV lion. The farmer has paid exactly the price of the mules for them, but for his failure to meet his engagements he has lost a great deal, as any other man will do. Not paying his debt when due has cost him S10G.GG on the first mule, as the mule went out of his possession and he got only $80 in return; it .has also cost him a great deal of interest on first note. But is this our fauit? Had he paid his note for first mule at maturity the mule would have remained in his possession, and would have cost him only the price in the first instance. We have written this communica"tion primarily for our vindication, but in the words of Mr. Hall: Ordinarily the public has nothing to do with the transactions between private individuals, but occasionally a case occurs that I think should be known as information to the unspecting, and the foregoing is one of these cases which I make public, not through spite, but as a warning to all men to use prudence and forethought in making promises to be fulfilled iu the future, and to never recklesslv promise to-day ! what they cannot perform to-morrow, j For this is the trap of debt, which is even worse than the grips of the Devil and Tom Walker pat together.
