of Lamar County, Nelson Winters, charged
with the murder of John d. Duncan, was
found guilty of murder in the first degree,
and being under seventeen years of age,
was sent to the penitentary for ninety
nine years.
On last Wednesday night, while the
freedmen were engaged in worship their
chmc CHI fell in on them, causing great eX-
element and some injury to pcrsous.-
Though there was large congregation in
attendance, fortunately but few, and none
seriously, were injured. The house was q
new one which the freedmen had built at
their own expense, great deal of the funds
however, were contributed by the white cit
liens of this place, and was used as
church and school house. This is q very
unfortunate loss to them, but it can be
very easily repaired at q small additional
expense.
Since writing the above we have been
Informed that one hundred and ten dollars
have been raised by the freedmen to repair
the building;-sixty dollars of this amount
was contributed by one freedman, Lewis
Evans. The enterprise of the freedmen in
this matter reflects great honor upon them,
and is worthy of imitation by those who
make greater pretensions to enlightenment.
We learn, also, that they intend to have
another fair in short time to assist in
raising money to build better church,
