here. His busiuess was to induce me to drop the divorce proceedings that I had instituted against my husband. He never loaned me any money. The money i mentioned in the letter was borrowed from my husband, and the letter, which was written by me, was for my husband, through Mr. Williams, our mutual friend. The notes I received yesterday all pur- < ported to be from my husband, and they i were answered under that supposition. I i did not waut to see my husbrnd for fear ' people would talk about it. I did not I v see my husband yesterday; but I know < he was here by the notes. That is the only way I know. My husband did not < want to be seen, for the reason that there ' is a warrant out for hitn. I By Mr. Hardin : How is it, Mrs. Ander- < * * - -* -? _! ..f , son, that if your Dusoanu was airaiu ui i being seen on account of the warrant, and ] you were afraid of having him seen on I account of the neighbors, that you told him to come in the daytime and warned him ' against coming at night? ' The question was evidently a poser, s The witness was confused, and although 1 confessedly a very bright woman, she 1 recognized that she was in a very close place, and, after hesitating, she finally let 1 the question go without an answer. i The jury was satisfied that the story to i the efl'ect that the woman thought that 1 V her husband was in town was only a 1 subterfuge. All became satisfied that the I truth of the matter was simply to the I effect that Williams's presence was a < severe embarrassment?case of an old i lover who was unwilling to be discarded. ] Mr. T. H. Hughes testified that on the I night of the killing, at about half-past eight o'clock, he saw Mr. Reese on one i side of the street and Mr. Luckieou the i W other. They were each looking closely 1 < into the street as they passed, aud it was evident that they were trying to fiud < somebody. The foregoing includes about all of the really important testimony. The jury came to the conclusion on Monday after- i noon that it was satisfied, and returned a V verdict to the effect that the deceased came to his death from a gunshot wound inflicted at the hands of M. R. Reese, and that Dan Luckie, is accessory. The bullet that was taken from the dead man's neck was of 38-calibre. There was no evidence at the inquest to the effect , that either of the parties accused bad j pistols; but the reporter was iuformed that there are several witnesses who are 1 willing to swear that Reese owns a 38- . calibre revolver and that the one owned by Luckie is 32-calibre. Mr. Reese continued to show himself about the streets of Blacksburg until Saturday afternoon. He was seen for the 1 last time at about 5 o'clock. Then he dis- < peared and has not been seen since. Some of the Blacksburg people say that he has left for parts unknown. Some hold to the opinion that he is in hidiug ' about Blacksburg, and still others think that he is now in the town of Yorkville. . s*. Rone of these theories are based on any definite information. As to whether or not he will give himself up for trial, opinions differ. i Luckie was arrested late Saturday and ^ y?j)ut under guard at the house of his sister. } Several young men undertook the duty of ( acting as guards. Presently, Luckie sug- ( gested that he desired to step out to get j ^ his hat. JCobody objected, aud the young t fellow continued to step. The guards fol- j lowed a short distant; but suddenly ran , upon a wire fence, and their whilom , prisoner is still after his hat. Mrs. Anderson is under arrest and under guard at her home. Just recovering from | the measels, however, as the tragedy hap- , pened, she was completely prostrated by | the shock, and the authorities have not | ^ settled on any definite conclusion as to ( what is best to be done with her. ] The reporter was informed that there is j a great deal of feeling against Trial Justice < Camp and the other authorities for allow- j * ing the prisoners, especially Mr. Reese, to j get away. It is explained, however, that < while the colonel stood ready" at any < moment to issue a warrant, as trial justice, upou proper affidavit, he had no right to i issue a warrant as coroner until after the ? finding of the jury. Nobody made the < , necessary affidavit, and consequently the i prisoner was permitted to escape. Colonel 1 Cainp, however, so the reporter is informed, has lodged a warrant with the sheriff, and written to the governor requesting his excellency to offer a reward for the apprehension of the fugitives. LETTER FROM HICKORY DROVE. w ? Navigation of Broad River?Lots of RainSocial Pleasures?Roads In Bad Condition?Thinking Politics?Preaching by Rev. J. C. Campbell. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. Hickory Grove, February 11.?Mr. W. S. Wilkerson returned from Cincin^ nati, Ohio, Monday, and reports a most i profitable and pleasant trip. "We have ' | seen the boats navigating the Big Sandy river," says Mr. Wilkerson," and in many respects it is like our Broad river." t What about the feasibility of placing a boat on the river at an early date?" "Oh! well it is bard to say when such a thing will be done; but, in my opinion, the day is not distant, and as for the feasibility, there is not the slightest doubt, but that the boat can be run successfully." For several days we have had rain, day and night, and the roads are in a horrible porulitinn. whilp thp nro nil 441it- . tie creeks" and "Our Great river" is leye > with its banks and still rising, and "bit still a-raining." There have beert many parties and * dances, in this section this fall and winter; but of all the parties, the oue at Mrs. Mar- ^ tha Sinarr's last Thursday evening "took ( the cake." There was singing, there was t "shake your little foot," there was music, s there were all the pretty girls from Hood- ! town and Bullock's Creek, and then there ^ was a table laden down with every eata- a ble that the epicure could desire. There t is no hostess who understands entertain- j ing the young "foiks" better, or can make J one feel more at home and ease than our hospitable and kind hostess, Mrs. Smarr. ( All the young men of this section and ( other sections, too, were there, and being ( as they were, surrounded by the fairest of 1 Vnrk eountv's fair, is it strancre that oil- . * "" ? I pid's arrows were many times placed in the bow, and if I am informed aright, J some have hit the mark. With the clock . chiming forth the "wee sma' hours of the night," the guests reluctantly realized, "There's no place like home," and bidding our hostess adieu, went forth long to _ remember one of the most pleasant even' j -jugs ever spent in an ancestral home in York county. The road from Howell's ferry to Calvin Pickenpack's (about a mile,) is iu a ve bad condition, and as the case now stanc it has no prospects of being worked tl spring or next. Mr. Thomas Wilkers is one of the overseors, and he has bei notified by Mr. William Hayes not work the said road. Mr. Joe Mitchell (b been) theother overseer, and I am infori ed that Mr. Elias Inman has notified hi not to work said road. So here we ha it: About oue mile of important road bad condition, no one to work it, and t bosses still disagreeing. What shall 1 ilo? People in this section are again thinki mice we have heard the despairing er; "How long, how long, until the coveti boon shall come?" Better times can on L'ome through two sources?by individu self help and economic legislation. O people should do the first and demand tl luuer. Of course, the appropriations this ye will appear heavier than last; but in co jidering the matter, we should not It sight of the fact that they cover a period fourteen instead of twelve mouths heretofore.
