Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1868-1875, 1869-08-28

On Monday morning last, says the Galla'
tin Examiner, the dead body of James Shy,
known in this county as one of the "Shy
boys" was found in the woods near Page
Stalcup's on the north side of the ridge,
just beyond the tunnel. He was discovered
by his brother. A jury of inquest came to
q verdict that he killed himself from pis.
tol shot, which entered his right nostril,
passing through his nose, striking just above
thu eye and bursting the crown of his head.
These conclusions were arrived at from all
the circumstances, which showed that the
shot must have been fred by himself. The
deceased was Of VIGOROUSLY bad character,
having been often before the courts and
once in the State prison, and was a
terror to the neighborhood from his bad
deeds. We have also heard it stated that
he remarked to Mrs. stalcup, whose house
he frequented, the day before bis being
killed, that she might as we'll go TO making
his shroud as he would not live long.

admirable taste and talent on the part Of the
management and performers. We have seldom
witnessed more delightful entertainment or
more select and appreciative audience. t}l
Peep into Paradise was happy thought.
and most attractively presented.
Misfortune suggested good moral. The dia-
logue was fluent and nicely spoken.
Stratagem illustrated the wit of lovers in
defeating the designs of age and ayarice. This
charade won great applause from young ladies
and gentlemen, but brousht few smiles to the
faces of anxious parents who wish to exercise
unlimited control in the choice of their daugh-
ter in affairs matrimonial.
The song in character possessed fine comic
points and convulsed the audience with laugh
| ter.
Misfortune" was fine selection and per-
formed very creditably.
Hayward" was excellent and beautifully
| rendered.
| Mr.. A. G. Morrow's comic song contributed
largely to the enjoyment of the occasion. ant

| mo Rose without Thorn" was a mos
pleasing cbarade and highly enjoyed by the au
dience.
VIM. G. Brien, Esq, at the request OF tn
young ladies and gentlemen. presented thei
thanks to the audience, and paid most grace
full and touching tribute to the memory Of gu
Confederate dead. We are rejoiced to be abb
to inform our readers that these tableaux sn

door to c. W. Smiths drug store, and on
inquiry found that it was being fitted up
for the sale of the Singer Sewing Ma
