Ho had rather a boyish face, nud was ratlicr am iable and good-humored in look than oth envise, Laving an open and frank ex pression. In his business dealings with anybody there was nothing crooked, un- derlmud or tricky. By his large, oll- liand generosity lie made a good many friends. N\ itli those (hut had relations with him on business or social 1 ) he made plca.'Uht impressions. Ho was a man ol high culture, having had the advaut ages of classical training. He fought a duel with Miller \\ illiams, of Cumdeu, in 1878, over the North Carolina Hue, in Ansoo county ; the distance was ten pa ces ; two shuts were exchanged; nobody was hurt. In the spring of 187y he fought a duel with Cantey, of Camden, at Dubose's Bridge, in Darlington couiir ty; this likewise was attended with no casualty. HU difficulty with old mau Herron, of Fairfield, during the political trials iu Columbia is too well known to repeat bore. Last year the lig negro marshal.

It is said tharhc instigated part of the letters that passed between Cel. Cash aud Shannon that icsulted iu tlie fatal duel. A short time after his father made his unsuccess ful run for a stiat! iu Congress from the Fifth District, Bogan was iu Lancaster one night w hen two pistol shuts were lived iu his window, evidently with the inten tion of killing him. II auy thing, by pro fession be was a firmer. lie was very f> ud of blooded slock, of which he had a grout many; his favorite amusements wore horse racing uud target practice; bis besetting Weakness was a loudness for wlfiskey, and most of hjs difficulties were prociphatftd Wheti under that evil influ ence.

There was a devoted attachment between fathc: and sou.
