OUR LIMESTONE LETTER.

Notes and Incidents Gathered Here
and There.
Correspondence of the Huntsville Gazette.)
ATHENS, Ala, Oct. II 1882.
And so the GAZETTE in its mullitu-
dinous pathways has found one OF
those Baptist patrjarchs .hailing from
the hills of Limestone, by name and
title of Prof. Rt. Rev. Elder j. r.
Scales--A high priest of the Primi
tive order-who condescends to deny
the charge that the Baptists as a de-
nomination oppose Sunday Schools.
He denounces such reports as SLAM
ders. Your correspondent would not
be considered irreverent, would touch
always with greatest respect and con
sideation all questions touching the
church of God. But the Elder is
very young in the cause, small fish
without gills and Fms sufficient to
support him in assuming the respon
sibilities of his erring brethren. Not
withstanding his assertion, there is
not a church of the Primitive Bap-
tist order within the borders of Lime
stone County which has or has had
Sunday school in operation this year.
Let ms have mo.k light, Elder, and a
longer "peep behind your curtain.'
The woman spoken of in my last
letter was tried before our Probate
Judge, found guilty and sentenced to
two years hard labor in the coal mine,
for which quarters she left Athens
Thursday last. This county had
three prisoners to die in those horri
ble mines this year. 1t is great
outrage and the convict system
should be rooted up as soon as posi-
BILE.
Some light fingered burglars en-
tered Capt. Raisler's store Saturday
night last and relieved him Of several
gold watches, chains and ring, boxes
of cigars sc. The store Of D. Hy-
man & Go. was also entered and
plund red. No arrests have yet been
made but suspicion points strongly to
several parties.
The Congressional campaign opens
up here this week. There will be
speaking at several places. P. j.
Crenshaw and others will address the
meetings.
Lowe is leader and Bingham a

DEATH OF CONGRESSMAN
LOWE.
Funeral and Tributes of Respect.
Short Sketch of his public
life.

Life:
Hon. VIM. M. Lowe died at the
residence of his sister in this city
about Z o'clock Thursday morning
October IL, He had been suffering
for along time from pulmonary dis
ease, and had just returned from q
trip to Colorado for the benefit of his
health. Being Immediately drawn
into the excitement of his canvass fol
reelection to Congress from this
District, he stood up bravely and
manfully under his affliction. and his
hosts of friends though conscious OF
his grave condition were little prepar-
ed for the blow to fall so soon and So
suddenly. In his death the State
loses useful, brilliant and able pub
lie man, and society generous, pub
lie spirited end gallant member.
From Garrett's Public Men i'll
Alabama, we abridge the following
sketch of the life of the deceased up to
1870:
VIM. M. Lowe was the youngest
son of Gen Lowe, was born in Hunts
vile, Jan, 9Th 1S4l. He opposed Sc
cession, but enlisted in the field in
1861, IN the Fourth Alabama, was
wounded in the battle of Manassas.
Recovering in several months he was
appointed Colonel on the staff Of Gov.
Shorter, and organized companies for
the field. Afterwards appointed Cap
tain, he went into the Kentucky
campaign, and was again wounded in
front of Murfreesboro, Tenn. Made
prisoner at the battle Of Franklin,
he was confined as a prisoner of war
at Camp Chase and Fort Delaware
until three months after the surren-
der. In 1865 ne was elected Solicitor
of the Huntsville Circuit, and in 1870
he went to the Legislature as a Rep
resentative from this county elected
by the Democratic party.
It was in 1878 that the ability and
talent Of Col. Lowe was displayed
He courageously withdrew from the
Bourbon party and declared himself
an Independent Greenback candidate
for Congress. Alter an earnest
brilliant canvass of the District ht
was elected-his success being. a grea
surprise to his opponents and many
Of his supporters. lie was again re
elected in 1880. counted out, bu
seated after an able contest.
Although reduced to great physi
cal weakness by his affiiction his con
stituents, in the impending canvas
would, it is generally believed have
reelected him for the third term by
an increased ma jority.
The news of his death spread rap
idly over the country.
Postmaster Jno. s. Reed received
