last Richard Beszley, charged with the murder OF

WAS examined before the Hustings Courf and &c.
ttsd-Aldermen Butte, Binford and Bray voting
for bis discharge axd Alderman Lipscomb and
Wlngiield 70 send him on 10 the Circuit Court for
trial. We have already given the evidence In this
cause. and shall not therefore repeat H. Beazley
and Holdsworth were In a controversy about a
quarter race, when Beaxley, having an open knife
10 bic hand with which he bad been whiting, gave
Holdsworth the id lie two or three times, for
whtch Aoidsworth struck him In the faee, and Inn
medately after was stabbed In the left side, from
the effects of which stab he died.
Holdswnrth was about 80 years OF age. and Beaz.
ley about 81. Mr.. Beazley, It appears, was an old

Hon. In the war of 1912. he entered the service
three times-frst. under Capt. Haley Cole OF Nor
folk, from the eth of June to the 27th of Decen-
Der, 1913, when the company seems TO have been
| disbanded When the capitol at Washington was
burned by the British, Capt. Coles company was
again called out, and Richard Beazley immediately
volunteered under his old commander, doing duty
from the 28h of August to the 18th OF October,
1914, when the company was discharged from fur
Their service. Thirteen days after the discharge OF
Capt Coles company, Richard Beazley was sub
s,ituted for John Cardwell 10 Capt Edward john
son company of Chesterfield and performed the
duty of soldier at lamp Bottoms Bridge till the
Both OF November, when that company was dis
charged.
The members of the court, favorable to the. dis
charge of Beszley, thought he committed the deed
in self defence, as he was struck by Holdsworth 10
the face (after giving II. the id lie) while DIR.
Wake had hold of BIS arm, and was endeavoring
to get the knife from him. 1t may be law to give a
man the id lie, and then kill him In sef defence
for resentng the insult thus offered but if it is,
there are very few men who would not. resent it
and take the consequences We have no idea that
there was premedation in the unfortunate act, but
that it unlawful and unjustifiabe killing very
