REMEMBRANCE.
in Mr.. Garland's mail to-day was a
printed invitation to him 10 attend the
th'rd annual picnic given by the G.. l.. II.
Picnic Club, near Townsville, ". C.. Au-
gust 23d. There was long printed list OF
committeeman, and, in writing, the words,
Compliments OF the Club" Many OF the
members OF the Club are his friends. and
they convey in this manneg their remem-
brancc Of him.
sPIDER-BTTE.
After dinner, there being some delay in
the appearance Of Mr.. Eanes, the witness
under examination, counsel asked where.
he was. The sheriff answered that he had
been bitten by a spider, and that he was
down stairs with a doctor. ThereUpon, to
fill in the time, Mr.. Gallon, engineer at
Wedderburn's saw-mill, was sworn, and
testified as to Boswell's visits there. Eanes
appeared in few minutes, suffering some
what with the wound in his neck. and went
on with his testimony.
ADDIsONs FIRING.
Addison fired once and snapped once,
witness said, before Garland fred ut all.
As Addison shot, or attempted to shoot,
cach time he stepped back until he got TO
the hickory, which was about one foot
from the road. Eancs's impression was
that Addison at last had his left arm en-
circling the hickory, his shoulder resting
against the tree, his body partly sheltered
by it, and that from this position Addison
fired, or attempted to fire, his pistol at
Garland. [The prosecution claim that Gar
land fred four times and that Addison
fred but once and snapped four times.
The defence will try to overthrow this ard
show that Addison's pistol, showing four
cartridges, has been tam
pered With
EANEs ARMED.
On cross-eXamination EancS said that he
Games had pistol when hc accompanied
Addison, ORGAN, and Jones. The other
two had testified that they went unarmcd.
Eancs also identified the knife he lent Nd
olson the day before the shooting. II was
shaIponcd while Addison had il. Eanes
quoted Jones as saying, when they two
were talking about Boswell first visit, that
il Garland came after Addison with bi-
fists that Addison would knock him
down in the thinking Of an eye;
that il he came with knife addison
would carve him quicker than lightning,
and that if he came with pistol Addison
would riddle him with bullets before Gar
land could draw. That i, substantially
what Eancs on cross examination quoted
Jones rs saying.
Judge linton moved that il be excluded
unless brought TO the knowledge OF Addi-
son. The defence insisted that it was ad-
missible as testing Jone,'s memory, a, they
meant to contradict him. Ruled out after
argument. Defence saved the point.
Personal.
1t NNht--At the close OF the examine
ton Of Eanes and the testimony for. the
Commonwealth, Mr.. Taylor admitted that
in the morning he made 4 remark, which
being probably misunderstood, provoked
Mr.. Finch to say what he did, and he wished
to acknowledge that he had been treated
with uniform courtesy by the lar OF this
community. Thereupon all offensive Ian
gusee was Withdrawn by both Taylor and
Finch, and agreeable relations restored.
rEAGGING ALONG.
The trial is proceeding at painfully
low rate, though the court meets at % A.
n. and only adiourn3 when it Is dark, amt
but one hour usually allowed for dinner.
II I'll seven Of the counsel speak, it VIII
take two days at least for them. Garland
friend, speak with confidence o. acqult'al'
but Il is conceded that much depends
mon the instructions OF Judge Perry, who
is presiding well and thoroughly study
jpl the case. Judge Hinton and ASSOCIATES
are vigorously prosecuting.
