We had II sidr-show performance In
Dccherd Saturday cvtningand night. 1t
Was given for the benefit OF one of the
chhrcheshere. A large crowd was In at
tendance at night. Everything went Off
quite pleasantly, and all seemed to DC well
pleased with the performance.
Mary Vaughan. who has been insane for
the last twenty odd years. died last Satur-
day ut the residence of her brother, = ..
Vaughan, in this place. The cause Of her
death Is rather Il singular circumstance.
She had been in her usual health. which
was good. until last Thursday night, or
Friday morning, when she complained of
being quite SILK. suffering severely with
great misery in her stomach. Soon after
she was found to be sick, Mr.. Vaughan's
wife discovered that Mary had torn one of
her calico dresses into pieces, tearing It
into very small bits. of which only Il small
portion could be found. When asked
what she had done will, the remainder OF
1t. she replied that she had eaten it up.
She said that she felt sick Oh Thursday
night. and thought that by eating her
dress it would make her feel better. She
had previously been in tic habit of tear
Ing some OF her clothing into pieces, but
had never been known to eat any Of it be-
fore. except upon one occasion. when she
tore up one Of her cotton stockings and
ate part Of it. DR.. +. B. Sloan WAS call
cd in to administer to her relief, but could
not get any medicine to net. Deceased
was about IS years old, and was the
daughterofS. S. p. Vaughan, deed.
A young cyclone passed over II portion
OF the farm belonging to Messrs. Stewart
Il Sloan last Thursday. Mr. Sloan says it
came from the west, and passed between
his house and barn, which are about one
hundred and fifty yards apart. He says it
tore the very ground up nearly. struck
one corner OF his straw stack, tearing it
out. tore off small tree at the ground;
struck line of fence, running straight
with it, and scattered the rails like straws.
lie says he believes If it had passed over
his house that 1t would have been torn all
to pieces. We have heard Of no further
da mage from it. 1t is supposed that it
struck the earth near the farm OF Stewart
& Sloan, and soon left it again.
We learn here this morning that Mr.
Pinkney Morris. young man who works
at the backsmthing business, died yes
