Horribie Death.

Henry Tarpley, cold, aged about 30
years, suffered horrible death by be-
ing dragged the distance of over half
mile by a mule, last Thursday evening,
in rear of Gov. Browns farm, one mile
east of town. He had been blowing,
and it is supposed that he mounted his
mule to return from the field and was
thrown or fell off, getting his left foot
fastened-in the gear. 1t is not known
how long he had been in this perilous
condition when discovered. The mule
was seen Jumping and running about
some time before he rushed by cabin,
where his victim was discovered drag
wing at his heels. All efforts to stop
him there were unavailing, and he did
not stop until he had dragged the man
through the lower part OF the farm and
ND the side of hill, over rocks, stumps
and roots, terribly mangling his body
and tearing the flesh from the lower
mart of his abdomen. When he was f.
nally released from the chains life was
almost extinct, and he spoke but once
or twice after he was reached by per-
sons in pursuit. Esq. Alexander, act
ing coroner, held an inquest Friday over
the body, eliciting the facts substan-
tally as above stated.

The EIkton BRIDGE

County Court meets next Monday,
and the proposition for an appropriation
for the Elkton bridge will again come
up. The magistrates are as well aware
of the importance of this bridge both to
that portion of our citizens who live on
the other side of the river and to all our
people as we can possibly be. The cit
liens across the river are taxed equally

the county, none of which has ever ben
Gifted them particle, and now they

people to seek an alliance with others
or establish a county of their own, as

taxes they pay, aud their presence in

over the river demands its favorable

matter well before refusing the aid

MAJOR NATnAN ADAMS.
Death of this Distinguished
Lawyer.

.
MAJOR NATHAN ADAMS died at his
residence in this city on Last Friday, che
10Th inst, OF dFopsy, superindaced by a
complication of diseases Raj. Adams
was born in the city Of Nashville in the
year 1921, and was consequently 50
years of age at the time OF his de,ith.-
His father, Mr.. Thos. P. Adams, moved
to Pulaski in 1885 or sc, and was for
long time cashier of the Branch Plant
ers Bank at this place. Nathan was
then quite boy, and soon thereafter
he returned and entered the University
of Nashville, where he graduated with
distinction in 1915, upon which oeca-
sion he was elected, or rather won by
superior merit the appointment, to de-
liver the valedictory address. His adj
dress was said to have been the. finest
effort that had ever been made in that
institution. He Immediately returned
to Pulaski and commenced the.study of
law under Judge Archibald Wright, but
the war with Mexico breaking out soon
thereafter, he entered tile army as vol
unteer, and while on his way to the seat
of war he received from President Polk
a quartermaster's commission. a posi-
ton which he filed with credit until
the close of the war. In 1919 he was
elected to represent the fioterial district
of Giles, Lincoln and Mars liall IA the
State Legislature, which comprised the
sole political episode in his history. In
1858, Judge Arch Hughes, Hon. w. c.
Whitthorne, Messrs. Jno. 2. Campbell,
Paine Davis and Nathan Adams we're
candidates for Attorney General OF this
district, the last four of whom met one
day in the office of Maj. Thos. NJ. Jones
and agreed to draw stFaws for who
should stand against Judge Hughes for
the office. Maj. Adams was successful, |
whereupon the others publicly with
drew, and the result was the election of
Maj. A. to the position. Major Adams
served as quar5ermaster under Govern
or Harris during the late war until the |
forces were turned over to the Confed- |
crate government, when ne was placed
upon the staff of Gen. Sohn Adams,
younger brother who had been
in the regular U. A. Army, and who
fell upon the breastworks at the bloody
battle of Franklin.
Before and since the war Maj. Adj
ans held high position at the Pulaski
bar, and none of its members ever
brought to their profession superior
natural ability or exhibited a higher
order of intellectual culture. |
His declining health in the past few
years had compelled him to abandon
application to business, but
when he did appear at the bar his pres
ence was regarded as SYNONYM of |
his clients success. His death is re- /
GREETED by all, and his wife and five
children have the sympathy of the en-
tire community in their sad bereaYe-
ment.
