Frontpt Settlement.
Mr. T. T. Hay, of Raleigh, N. C.,
the general agent of the Rochester-
German Ins. Co., of Rochester, New
York, arrived in Aiken yesterday,
and paid Hutson & Co., the B. D.
Lamar Joss oi $2,325. This prompt
adjustment ami settlement of loss is
only in accordance with the well
known prompt and business like
ibetbod of this company.
About 1 o’clock ou Sunday morn
ing a disgraceful row took place on
Laurens Street, in front of Polier’s
store, which resulted in Luther Hol
ley being badly beaten over the head,
and the night watchman, Wade Pat
terson, cut with a knife on the lower
jaw and neck. Several persons in the
neighborhood were aroused by cries
for help, among them Mr. Hahn, who
round Patterson in a very bloody con
dition, and took him to Dr. Croft’s
bouse, where his wounds were dress
ed. Hjlley was seen to be also in a
very bloody state, and was carried
into a liouse on Curve Street, where
his wounds were washed and dressed
by Dr. A. H. Ashley, who was also
sent for. W. A. Moseley was also in
volved in the fracas, but had not re
ceived any injuries worthy of atten
tion. As soon as Patterson had had
his wounds dressed he came hack on
the street, and meeting Town Mar
shal Wingard they two went and ar
rested Holley and Moseley and placed
them iu the guardhouse, where they
were kept until the Sheriff and Trial
Justice could be communictaed with.
As soou as possible, by about 3
o’clock a. m., warrants were sworn
out against the two prisoners of the
town, and they were taken by the
Sheriff from the guardhouse to the
County jail. Early ou Sunday Hol
ley and Moseley gave bonds in the
sum of $500 each, for their appear
ance at the Trial Justice Court for a
S reliniinary bearing. Will L. Chat-
eld was also ant-.-p'd. < !i:;rged with
being implieateu in the affair, and
was also bound over to appear before
the Trial Justice with the others.
The row grew out of the reporting
of W. A. Moseley by the night watch
man Patterson, for firing off his pistol
in the street on Thursday night. For
this he was fined $20, which he con
sidered an excessive amount, alleging
that other parties had been fined only
$5 for the same offense, and iu one
instance the offense had been over
looked entirely.
As it is very difficult to get an ex
act and unprejudiced statement of
the facts, we publish the statements
of both sides. But however the real
truth may be, among all good citi
zens there is but one opinion,—some
body is to blame, and such occur
rences should be prevented by the
imposition of the heaviest penalties
possible.
The preliminary trial of the parties
will be held before Trial Justice
Weeks some day next week.
MARSHAL PATTERSON’S STATEMENT.
A 5 minutes to oue o’clock I was
standing in Polier’s door talking to
him, when I noticed three men com
ing across the street from Klatte’s
corner. Two of the men I recognized
as Luther Holley and Bub Moseley,
the third party I did not recognize.
They stripped on Jeft'eoate’s corner
where they talked awhile. Heard the
man with light suit on say, “go ahead
boys, I’ll stand to you till h— bums
d»wn.” Heard other remarks that
put me on my guard. Moseley walk
ed by where I was standing and turn
ed and walked back, but did not
speak- He came up near agkin and
cursed me and threatened my life,
accusing me of reporting him to
council. 1 told him to go away as i
was a marshal and -did not want a
fuss, but if he would wait until the
next day when I iVould be off duty,
we could then settle our differences.
Moseley bad a sirring back dirk open
in liis hand and /nade a cut at me,
cutting my clothes below my right
vest pocket. I jerked out my pistol
c*t»d allude al lolacicy , UuC HjL
slipped out of nfy hands and struck
against Polier’s door; I then drew
my club and knocked him down.
Holley ran up from behind and out
me across my jaw, trying to cut my
throat. I turned and struck him
across his head and knocked him
down. By this time Moseley had
gotten up and came again at me with
his dirk and cut at me, cutting my
coat across my breast in several pla
ces. and Holley again coming up be
hind, caught my arms and threw me
down, saying, “cut his throat, d
him.” In the scuffle on the ground I
cried for help, and caught his arm iu
my mouth and bit it, and we rose to
gether and I beat him down with my
club.
MR. LUTHER HOLLEY’S STATEMENT.
I and Bub Moseley were setting
down, between 12 and 1 o’clock, in
front of Jeflcoat & Co’s bar. Moseley
got up and said, “old man, I an going
h«me.” I replied, “I am too.” I said,
did yoa ever find out who reported
you? He said, “no, but the man that
did it was a d rascal.” Wade Pat
terson came running down there and
said, “don’t curse me for a d— rascal.
I am the man that repotted you.”
Moseley said, “I don’t go back on
what I say, and if you reported me
you are a d rascal.” Patterson
then struck Moseley with his club
and Moseley staggered back and he
hit Moseley again. I ran up to keep
him from hitting Moseley again, and
was going to say to him, I will help
you lock up Moseley if you want me
to; but belore I could sprek Patterson
whirled and hit me with bis club and
knocked me down. I then got up
and downed him and tried to cut his
throat, and cut until I thought he was
all right, and 1 left him of my own
accord. What I did was strictly .u
self defense, for I had no thought of
getting into a fuss until he hit me.

As this is the garden spot of the
County, the crops are fine. The re
cent cold winds somewhat checked
the growth of cotton. The fruit crop
is flue, and especially Urcle Billy’s—
or at least the boys all say that it is
the best in the vicinity. The pros
pect for a melon crop is good, and it
is to lie hoped that the farmers will
realize a handsome profit
It seems that the matrimonial wave
lias struck this part of tne County.
Ou tlie 30th Mr. John Hollmau was
married to Miss Lizzie Corle;,. Mr.
Holliuan is an enterprising farmer,
and has won a companion who is in
deed a prize. May success and happi
ness attend their pathway. On the
19th Mr. Botnar, of Orangeburg, was
married to Miss Aunie Johnson. Mr.
Bomar has many friends, who extend
to him hearty congratulations and
best wishes, feeling that he has pos
sessed himself of a treasure that will
brighten his pathway along the rough
uneven journey of life. May peace
and pleasure ever abide with them.
Mrs. Susie Toole, of Macou, Ga.,
who has been visiting at her father,s,
Mr. Kolin Hudson, returned to her
home on Saturday last, after a short
but pleasant trip.
Miss Myra Hudson has gone to Ma
con to spend the summer with her
sister, Mrs. Toole. Miss Myra is one
of our fairest young girls, and she
leaves some sad hearts to mourn after
her departure. I shouldn’t wonder
that Jackev mourns and the tears
trickle down his ruddy cheeks, when
he contemplates his sad condition.
And there is the bachelor on the hill;
he looks sad and it seems as if his
heart is gone. Ah, boys, you should
not be so sad, for time passes away
very fast.
Rev. W. E. Johnson returned home
from Greenville on Saturday last, and
will spend his vacation at home.
The young men of this vicinity are
making arrangements for a grand
basket picnic to be held here the first
week in August.
We congratulate The Recorder
on its grand improvement.

The closing exercises of Mrs. Hard’s
school took place on Friday night 21st
at tne hall. The program was select
ed with great care to suit the individ
uality of each pupil, and the attend
ance was very large, the spacious hall
being well filled. The exercises were
exceptionally good. There was much
that vas commendable and creditable
both to teachers and pupils, and all of
I hem evidenced a careful and tiiorougb
training. Little Emmie Arthur car
ried off the laurels of the evening by
her superb recitation of “Uncle Joe’s
Cotton.” The calestlienics by the 12
girls desere special mention and were
loudly applauded by the appreciative
audience. There was not a single
failure nor anything to mar ti—plea
sure of teacher or parent iu witnes
sing this successful exhibition. Mrs.
Hard is also a splendid disciplinarian,
as was shown by her pupils’ behavior.
Thus closed a mest successful sehooi
term, and we all hope to have the
pleasure of seeing another floe exhi
bition given by the same teacher again
