Local News* WEDNESDAY, .U NK IS, 1?HJ2. Dealli of Mrs. C. A. Recd. Thfie have been many sorrowing hearts in Anderson since f?.40 o'clock .Saturday evening. At that hour re lentless death entered one of tho hap piest of Anderson's hornee and laid a remorseless hand upon her whose lov ing heart) thoughtful mind and will ing hands had fashioned and kept bright and inviting an ideal home, und whoso gentle, noblo qualities endeared her to her friends while living and makes her memory au unceasing de light. Mrs. Fannie Kingsley Hoed, wife of Mr. C. A. lieed, has passed from earth to heaven. While clinging tenderly to the ties that bound her to earth-hus band, children, grandchildren and lov ing friends-she was ready lor the call which means separation for a season only. The sad circumstances of her early childhood, tl?e losing of both father and motlier and being au only child. served to develop a tender, clinging na ture, which in lier life ns wife, mother and grandmother grew so strong that though the severing ol' those ties were in response to a summon from heaven, those who stood by wept as did also those whos intimate association had acquainted them with her depth ot love. When told by the devoted husband that sile must try to get well, she must not leave them, she replied, "Uh, 'ClilV,* I do not want to leave you; you know I have never left you one whole day during our happy married iife, but our Saviour has called and I must go, and I am so glad I nm ready to go." Kindness of heart was her chief characteristic and made beautiful her wholo nature. There was no selfish ness, nc envy, no hate, only generosity, charity and good will. This character istic kindness went out to nil who were so fortunate as to know her and made them love her, but it was in lier home particularly that it ch' vMadzed into greatest beauty, mak i- : hat home a delight to every mera '..?.; of tho family and creating in the heurts of the domestics a devotion which made service n work of love. Tho deceased was born June 10th, 1840, at the Kingsley old pince, three miles below Helton. Her mother was Miss Francis Emiline Broyles, daugh ter of Mnj. Cain Broyles. Her father was Chester Kingsley, a prominent plauter, originally I rom the State of Virginia. She was an only child. Her mother and father both died while she was an infant and Mnj. Cain Broyles and wife, the maternal grandparents, took her to their home in Greenville, Tennessee, where she was reared and sent to school until about fifteen years old. Thu grandmother having died at this time the grandfather moved with tho young girl to Dalton, Ga., where his son, A. H. llroyles, was living, nud there tho deceased completed her edu cation. In 1803, when tho federal troops were occupying those portions of Tennes see thoy had overrun, and the mutter ings of war indicated that North Geor gia, embracing Dalton, was soon to be the theatre of bloody conflict, it was determined by the Broyles family to refugee to this State. In the fall of 1803 Mr. A. It. Broyles, accompanied by his wife and the deceased, reached Anderson. A home was bought at Sloan's Ferry, on Seneca Hiver, and there shortly afterward the family, including Maj. Cain Broyles and the deceased, took up their abode. lt was while en route to Anderson that Mr. C. A. Reed, then a young Confederate soldier, met tho deceased. The introduction was secured at Bel ton, and tho ref ugeeing party w.-re in vited by the gallant young soldier to the home of his father, Judge Reed, in this city, where they spent a week. The soldier was ordered to Virginia but the impressions made upon him by the young girl were lasting, lu 1804 he was wounded and sent home. His right arm lind been given in defence of his country. Cupid had made deeper wounds meanwhile on the hearts of both moldier and uinideu, and when he made known his love aud gave her the opportunity, she declared she would be his right arm through life, and never were truer words spoken. They were married October 20th, 1364, at the Sloan Ferry home of the bride. One child was tho fruit of this marriage, Mrs. Hellen Lig?n, wife of R. S. Ligon, Of this city. Not only in the home and among friends did the noble character of this good woman show itself, but in the church and all the societies of the church and wherever there wns an op portunity to relieve Bullering humanity and to contribute to lift the humble and lowly to mauhood and its oppor tunities. She identified herself with tbe church at an early age in Tennes see and becamo a member of the An derson Baptist Church shortly after her marriage, where she has been honored and loved for her good works. The death of the deceased was the result of heart trouble, which reached an alarming stage about three weeks ago. She suffered greatly at times, but for some time before the end carno she waa free from pain and to tho very last remained perfectly conscious. Her death waa as if she had only fallen ??deep, so peacefully did she go. And, ?;ier all, it Is but sleep, preceding a glorions resurrection. The funeral eorvices were held at the First Baptist Church, this city, at 6 o'clock Monday afternoon, tho Rev. JD*. Chapman conducting the services. Thia large church was filled with sym pathotic and sorrowing friends. The interment waa at Silver Brook Cenie ^?he following were the pall bearers : Active, C. J.

McIn tosh, indicted for the killing of George McKinney, w:is begun Tuesday just before noon last week and occupied the Court until Thursday afternoon. Much interest was manifested in its case by the people generally, and the Court room was well lilied during the entire progress. Many ladies were present to hear tho arguments of the tria!. Arguments in behalf of the de fendant were delivered by Messrs. Greene, \V. N. Graydon and G. E. Prince?, and in behalf of the State by Elli* W. Graydon and Solicitor Hoggs. The verdict of the jury was "guilty of manslaughter, with a recommendation to the mercy of the Court." A motion for a new trial was argued Friday morning but not sustained, and McIn tosh was given a sentence of five years in the penitentiary. Pending an ap peal to the Supreme Court, bond was fixed at ?2,000, and was promptly sign ed by Guilford \V. Cade, of Abbeville, and Guy McIntosh, son of Singleton A. McIntosh. The convicted mau is apparently 05 years old, with hair and beard snow white. Years ago he wa? convicted of a similar offence and served a part of the sentence then imposed, but was pardoned by Hon. H. H. Tillman, then Governor of the State. During the progress of the McIntosh case Wednesday morning the follow ing "tine bills'1 were handed In by tho Grand Jury: Thomas Mclvellor, disposing of prop erty under lien. Hoheit McAdams, bastardy. Nelson Emmerson, forcible entry and detainer. John Churchwell, housebreaking and larceny.

Thursday afternoon the case of Rob ert Hailey Poo), charged with murder, was taken up. < ?illy two witnesses were put up nud they were put up by the State. After argu ment, the case was given to the jury, who, after deliberating an hour, brought in a verdict of not guilty and Mr. Pool was discharged. Friday moruiug brought the end of the McIntosh case, and three cases charging gambling were oue nf ter an other taken up. No less than twenty five negroes were indicted in these cases, and of that number eleven en tered a plea of guilty and were sen tenced to pay a fine of $20 or two mouths labor on the public works. Niuo have paid aud the other two will pay. The cases ns to remainder of the twenty-five continued. The next ense taken u" was John Simpson, charged with arson. Five witnesses were put up by the State, none by tho defendant. The verdict was "guilty with recommendation to tho mercy of the Court," and Simpson was given ten years at hard labor in the penitentiary. In tho afternoon the case of John Cbuichwell, indicted for housebreak ing and larceny, went to the jury. There were no arguments before the jury. The verdict was "guilty" and the sentence one year on the public works or like period in the peniten tiary. Thc vase against Henry Fuller, Nick Williams and Clarence Jenkins, house breaking and larceny, came next. As to Henry Fuller the case was contin ued; the others were tried and con victed and sentenced, Nick Williams to six months labor ou tho ' public works and Clarence Jenkins, because of his youth, to two months in tho couuty jail. After this case the Petit Jurors were discharged. A motion for a new trial in the case of W. L. aud B. B. Davis was at this point argued but not sustained, and the Judge pronounced sentence. B. H. is to pay a lino of fifty dollars or labor on tho public works two months. W. L. Davis is to pay a fine of $2.1 or be confined in county jail for one month. This, in consideration of the age of W.
