How a Masonic Signal of Distress
$ Was Answered.

The Memphis AOalanche, of 18th
ult., has the following
Yesterday Mr., Tom Cole was tri-
ed before Esquire Elliott fer the
killing Of james Reed. which oc-
Cured last December IL. There
were dezen or more State witness
es who gave such testimony that
the magistrate did not deem it nec-
essary To hear any witnesses for the
defense, and discharged the prisoner
Immediately. The story Of the
killing has been published before,
and it will be interesting to give the
circumstances as detailed by the
| witnesses. ~
It seems that Tom Cole and James
Reed had difIiculty at the grocery
on Horn Lake read, kept by man
named Williams, only a few miles
south of The city. Friends inter
fered and the affair was 4uieted,
Cole giving up his pistol. Shsrtly
afterward Reed commenced quarrel
ing again aHd wound up by grasping
the inofensiVe Cole by the throat.
and drawing and raising over his
head huge bowie knife. Cole seiz-
ed his hand and said. 81 am your
friend, don't cut me-" Again by.
ISLANDERS interfered and Reed start
ed home, but .drunken brute Of q
friend cried out t. him, "If you are
coward go home and go to bed,
but il you are man show it-cut
his liver out of him." Poor Reed
was weak enough to lisen to this
.drankea advice, and again assaulted
Cole, doing his utmost te cut his
throat. Cole could not stand this
attack, unarmed as he was. and, it
is said, he gave the Masonic sign Of
dire distress. Suddenly two pistol
shots were heard and Reed fell dead.
The bullets pierced thelbreast Of the
unfortunate man and he died al
most immediately. None Of the
Witnesses could say who. fred the
shot, and Coles lips we're scaled on
the NATTER. The theory of the at
torney. G. F. nj. Turner, was that
some friend had quickly handed a.
pistol to Cole and that he had shot
the man who was choking him aud
threatening his life. Of. some friend
of Coles seeing his imminent peril.
had sent the three fold aggressor to
his long home. Cole was assured
that he was perfectly justitlaBie if he
had done the killing, but no assur-
anees could make him open his mouth
an the matter. u sHs as aeisr~4a -
ESQUIRE Elliott said he saw 20
grounds npon which to commit. the
accused. hnt that lie as q maglslrate
of the law, was compelled Co take
notice OF the fact that in the earlier
part Of the eveaing Cole had d pis-
tol, and he therefore bound him over
for carrying concealed weapons.
