At the regular meeting of the Red Bank Lodge, No. 83, I. 0. 0. F, held September 24th, the following resolutions were adopted. Whereas, the great Supreme Ruler of the Universe has in His infinite wisdom removed from among us one of our worthy and esteemed fellow laborerp, brother J. B. Oswalt and, whereas, the long and intimate relation, held with him in the faithful discharge of his duties in his order makes it eminently befitting that we record our appreciation of him; therefore, be it Resolved, That the wisdom and ability, which he haB exercised in the aid^ of our. organization by service, contribution, and counsel will be held in grateful remembrance. Resolved, That the sudden removal of such a life from amongst our midst leaves a vacancy and a shadow that will be deeply realized by all the members and friends of this order and will prove a serious loss to the community and the public. Resolved, That with deep sympathy with the bereaved relatives of the deceased, we express our hope that even so great a loss to us may j be overruled for good by him who doeth all things well. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be spread upon the records of our order and a copy printed in the Lexington Dispatch and one forwarded to the bereaved family. Jno. G. Boozer, J. F. Lown, B. L. Huske, Committee. Caring for Her Quest. There are so many visitors in town that it is impossible to get their names or the places where they are stopping. Through a spirit of hospitality our people are throwing the doors of their private residences opened to accommodate those who cannot find board and lodgings in the public houses. So, to one and all, we extend a hearty welcome and assure them that they will always find the latch string on the outside of our door.

Lawrence Robinson, colored, plead guilty to the charge of obstructing the Seaboard Air Line Railway, at Dixianna, by changing the switch light and connecting the side track with the main line, just before the aDnroach of the "Florida Fiver." 4"iT * - - The sentence was ihree years to the chain gang.

Graham, G. B. Timmerman and E U. Shealy. Efird & Dreher assisted the Solicitor. ' The trial was very lengthy, but resulted in a verdict of acquittal. The trial of Scipio Stratfoot for the murder of ^Hden Stivender, followed next. This murder occurred at Dixianna about two years ago and the defendant escaped, but was captured in Florida this spring. The parties are all colored. Solicitor Thurmond left before this trial and Asbill and Sharpe appeared for the r?rnafirtnf.ion and Timmerman and Martin for the defendant. The verdict was guilty of murder with recommendation to mercy and the sentence was life imprisonment. On Friday came up the trial of Jerpme Harley for the murder of Thomas Vernon Flake, near Woodford on June 6th last. The trouble grew out of a dispute over a land line between the parties and both carried guns to the held, the killing occurring very nearly on the line of their land. Asbill appeared for the prosecution and Graham and Sharpe for the defense. The jury found a verdict of acquittal in a few minutes after retiring. The last jury trial for the first week was William Casewell, a Georgian, lately residing at Irene, S. C., for assault with intent to kill upon T.
