THE MANNING TIMES. WEDNESDAY, MAY 13, 1887. B. S. DINKINS, Editor. Court Proceedings. The court convened Monday morn ing promptly at 10 o'clock. Only six teen of the Grand Jiiurors answered to their names. The Petit Jurors turn ed out better, thirty-four out of the 36 being present. There is a peculiar attraction about the Court for the or dinary public. The dull season and busy time on the farms failed to keep these curious sight-seers at home. 'They were present in numbers, and especially was this the case with the colored part of our. population. It is remarkable what attractions the Court possesses to a curious public -and thrice a year they c:ast away business and care and haste tc greet the welcome sound of the criers voice as he proclaims the opening o the oyer and terminer. The charge of Judge Kershaw to the Grand Jury as might be expected, was clear, brief concise, and pointed. During the morning, the following cases were passd -on by the Grand Tury; Th Statf vs. Dick, alias Sallie Sparrow, assault and battery, no bill: The StatE vs. Dembo Wells, burglary and lar <ceny, true bill; The State vs. Jerrv Smothers, burglary and larcent, truE bill. The jury in the case of Jerry Smothers was drawn, when the hom of adjournment arrived. During the recess of the Court the members o, the Manning Bar held a meeting foi the purpose of taking some action ex pressive -of their sorrow at the deati: of their esteemed associates in thE profession, Messrs. G. Allen Huggiw and Jos. Galluchat. Joseph F. Rhame Esq, was called to the chair. A mu tion was carried that Messrs. Thonp son and Levi with the chairman pr2 pare a set of resolutions to be of-ret at the reconvening of the court, as z -tribute to their deceased brethren. After the recess the case againsi Jerry Smothers was resumed. P. %G Bowmen, of Sumter, ably represente the accused; nevertheless he-was con victed. Directly after the opening of thi .court, the following resolutions wer< -passed predicated by appropriate re narks by several members of the bar Wmras, Since the last term of th court, G.Allen Huggins, Esq., a meim ber of the Manning Bar, has beei taken from our midst by death. there fore be it Resoled, That the members of th Manning Bar recognizing in all affie tion the dispensation of an inscruta ble wisdom of an ever ruhng Provi dence, deeply deplore the death o our esteemed and honored member. IL. That while he remained with u he was an honor and an ornament t< the profession; that we present to our selves, and the studious advocate, hi: indefatigable industry, his patience his generosity, his high sense of hon ~pr, and unsullied integrity, as a mode forthe formiation of individual am professional character. * II. That we respectfully tender om~ .sincere condolence to thd members o his bereaved family, and beg leave ti assure them of our sincere sympathy *IV. That His Honor, the presiding .Judge, be requested to have theseie olations entered upon the records o the court. Wm~as God in his allwise Provi 'dence has removed byv death from ou: midst, Joseph Galluchat, Jr., a meat ber of the Manning Bar. Aamn, WHEREs, We, the members o the Manning Bar have assembled fo: the purpose of giving expression o regret at the loss of our friend, an the esteem and regard we entertaine for him. -Therefore, be it resolved: 1st. That in the death of our broth er this Bar has sustained tbe loss of : useful member, a genial companion and estimable friend; the cominnit' a useful citizen, and his family a kind. and affectionate husband and fathier 2nd. That we extend to his bereav ed family our sympathy and condol ence, with the hope that the Great Ar bitrator of time and eternity will aii and succor them in this aftlictive dis pensation. 3rd. That the presiding Judge be requested to order these resolutions entered upon the Court Journal and -copy thereof furnished to the famil' .of the deceased. The court then adjourned until af $er the funeral of Jos. G*alluchat, Esq On Tuesday the business of the Court was dispatched prompltly ani quickly in the following manner: The State vs. W. H-. Cole and Johr King, no bill returned by the Grand Jury. No bills were also returned against Mattie Smith. Hlilliard and Emma Rush, and W. E. Morris. The case of the State vs. Henry Tinda] was continued. Dembo Wells was convicted of burglary and larceny andc senteneed~ to the penitentiary for twc years at hard labor. John Dysor was also convicted of burglary and larceny and sentenced for 12 months to the same institution. Jerry Smothers was sentenced by the Court to three years at hard labor in the penitentiary. This with the present inent of the Grand Jury, concluded the business of the sessions Court. The Common Pleas Court soon after adjourned sine d~ie. PRESENTMENT DE GRAND jRY. State of South Carolina, Clarendon County.( Court of General Sessions, May Ternr 1887. To the Honorable J. B. Kershaw Presiding Judge, the Grand Jury beg to make the following report: Owing to the large numrber of bills given out 1y the Solicitor for this termi of c-ouri time taken up in the examination o witnesses for the State and have beet unable to attend to aux other busi ness except the examiration of th< 'ooks of trial justices which have beer presented to us for inspection. We find their books neatly and cor rectly kept, but some have not beet posted up to date. A Justice of ti Peace should be a man of intelligence and sound judgment. When a case i: submitted to his decision without a jury, the main questiox with which h< will bave to deal is as to the weight c the evidence in the case. He shouk be familiar with the law prescribinC his duties and should uiderstand th< general rule of evidence. We have six trial justices in the country and one in the town. Thos, in the country receive one houndret dollar.- for State cases and are limite< to seventy-iive dollars for constabL< work, w'ile the one in town receive, four hu:u*red dollars for State case, and no limit to constable charges The greater part of the work is donf by the towu justice and we do no think that the salary paid him is ex cessive. We note the recent decision of th< Supreme Court in regard to the tria of cases of petit lareceny, but we pass it by indulging the hope that our leg islature will reanedy this evil at it, next session But we are constrain ed to believe that the establislimen of the whippiug post in this count; for the paumshient of all such case; as petit larceny, would tend greatly t( the deterioration of crime. We note with pleasure that the re commendation made in our last re port are being carried out, and w< can congratulate our Coonty Commis sioners upon tle business manner 11 which they have conducted the affair of the county. Public buildings o the county are in good order and ar( sufficiently covered by insurance. The grand jury have noticed tha outsiders, persons not engaged in bus ines before the court, often occup; ithe places provided for jurors, officer of the court, and members of the ba: This occurs at times when it is ver; annoying and inconvenient to thos( naving business before the court. I i; very embarrassing to the officei and gentlemen of the bar to reques a gentleamn thus improperly occupy ing their places within the bar to giv them up, and it is far better for th ordarly conduct of the business of th court that it be not allowed on an occasion. It is therefore recommend ed that the Sheriff whose duty it is t see to it that no one be allowed to oc cupy seats within the bar except jr rors, officers of the court, members < the bar, and such persons who ar parties to the cases being tried, an and their witnesses as their attorney in the cases may need them. Owing to the busy season, juror can only attend to their duties wit great inconvenience and pecuniar loss. Many and various matters c weight and importance have thus bee postponed\ until an opportune tim ~when it i. proposed to enter ane a haustivf: and elaborate investigatio of all a! 'airs in which the co'unty is in terested., If it me with your Honors ar probation we have this day appoini ed F. P. Cooper, T. R. Brailsford, an W. F. Butler, a committee of investi gation, with full powers to examnin into the various ofiices, poor hous< jail, etc., and report the result of thei erainiuation to the entire jury at th Fall term of court, provided that suc aunations shall not consume mer tha ." rRespectrully submitted, Extaex P.

His Churches have always increased in numbers usefuliess and strength under his ministry, and be seeuis to possess in the highest de gree tLe magnetic power of winning the af fections of all who come in contact with him, for his warm heart makes him :minentlv social and attractive.

THE BIDEOFDEAT[. How a Daun\ter of Governor Pickens was Kiih4 at the Altar. Daring the tumult and axcitement of the y late war one of the saddest incidents that oe eurred was the marriage and death of Annie. eldest daughter o Governor Piekens, o: - South Carolina. In the midst of the great f events of the war, says the Atlanta Gast tioa, such tragedies were comparatively un uoticed but now, that time has calmed tie troubled sea of strife and contention, a pie a ture of the scene will be of general interest. and will awaken a chord of sympathy in the s hearts of all who real it. On April 22nd, 1663, in Charleston, S. C. at the residence of Governor Pickins, a par ty was assembled to witness the marriag, f ceremony of Annie Pickens to Lieutenant La Rochelle. I was a time when terror and anguis. were prevailing throe g*out the entire South antd toe booming of the Union guns then 2 reared in the harbors, but the httie number - who had to lected together had determained to smile, even though their hearts were iach. . ng and they were trerabling with terrom ~ Geneatth the soft light of the chandelier the -:lergymnan stood with the haibiliments of the :1 church enshrouding his veneriible form .. efore him was the noble young heutenan. .n his oflicial uniform, while beside him a ieaned the beautiful and stately woman wi o was to~ becom'e his wife. r There she stood, regal and proud. poss:ss ing everything that prestige of birta, rank. atta wealth could give. "Are you ready - Sskdtemnseunclasping the bo e "Yes," said La Rochelle, taking the hand i tie bride. Searcely was the answer uttered t Lan that there wvas an awful crash. A thel ;rom the enemy,s guns had penetrated the :nansion, bursting in the midst of the mar riage scene and scattering its deadly missiles. .iriund. Men trembled and wocnen screamed, mir rors were shivered, and for a moment the e walls seemed to rock to and fro. In a few moments quiet reigned, and it was ascertain -ed that the only fbal wound received was in )j the left temple of the waiting bride, who lay like a beautiful crushed flower in the arnis - of her agonized lover. Laying her on the e lounge he bent over her, and, in a moan cf [tdespair, pra1 ed that even in dleath sb. Swould become his wife. Her quick-drawn L- breath melted in a sigh as the lips smiled assent. SThere she lay, pure and white as the clu; .ter of camelias at hcr breast, while the crini son life tide oozed in heavy drops from the a death wound in her brow and coursed is y stream over the lovely cheek, marring tl e snowy clouds of her bridal veil that enve: Soped her. The ceremony was of a few words and the " yes" wvasmiurmured in a dy ing whisper beneath the husband's kiss. In a moment all was over; a little struggle and she was dead.
