Frank B. Cnry returned to bii borne at

Monday to hold tbo Court of General
Session-. Tbis wus Mr. Gary's first ap
pearanca here as Judge and all wcro
impros8od with his clear, concise ml"
iDgs on all point? and with bis striking
ease of manner and lino dignity on tbo
bench. Tbo jurors wcro discharged
Friday morning. Quite a number oi
cases were disposed of and several were
continued. Probably tbo most impor
tant case or cases was too suit for dam*
avjea brought by Pulasky, a Jewish
peddler, against Messrs . R. D. Nance
and Carroll Nnnro, father and sou,
prominent business men and citizens of
Cross Hill, for ttn thousand dollars,
five thousand each. The cases were
brought separately and in the suit
against the elder Nance a verdici was
returned in bis favor while a vcid'ct
for a small amount, twenty-five dollars,
was given tbo Plaintiff in the caso
bgainst Cnrroll D. Nance.
Briefly st ttcd, it seems Iba'. Pulask.v .
the peddler, had been ordered to stay
olT the Nance premises. This warning
the Jew ignored and soon afterwards
lie re-visited the parties at the same
plao offering to s 11 bis wares, pursu
ing his dully vocation. Upon learning
of bis presence on the premises, Mr.
H D, Nance at once sought to eject tbo
P'ddler and in doing so he struck Pul
nsky several times with a whip. I'nl
asky immediately proceeded to get out
a warrant for the arrest of Mr. Nance,
charging assault. About tbis time Car
roll I). Nance heard of tbo affair and
of the Jew's effort to have bis lather
arrested and he, too, took a hand.
Meeting up with tbo paddior at the de
pot young Nance redout u his conduct
and struck Pulasky one b"ow with his
fist, just as the Jew was in the ao\ as
Nanoo regarded it, ol making an attack
on him.
For this reasm Pulasky considered
himself damaged to the extent of the
amount sued for: the juries though' dif
