Knoxville daily chronicle. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1870-1882, 1882-01-12

jacksonville, Jan. y, 1882.
After a wet and muddy ride from
Sweetwater, on Saturday, your cor
respondent was able to appreciate
the kindly hospitality of staunch
friend Of the CHRONICLE, at Madison
vile, Mr.. w. NJ Smith, who warmed
and fed US, and that right royalty,
for quiet country town.
On Sunday the bells were rung for
two SabbaJh-schools, where the peo-
pie assembled to study the Scrip
lures. Mr.. W. 3 Stephens was
elected superintendent OF the Union
school.
To day (Monday) was set for Cir
cult Court in this county, and at an
early hour large groups Of
citizens were gathered on the
street corners and about the
courthouse. At 10 o'clock the court
was opened and business commenced.
Judge Rogers gave his charge to the
grand jury, clearly urging them TO
use common sense and 80 doctor the
body Of the State" that no disease
remain. He said that for every
wrong there was a remedy, and if
they looked they could find law for
every need.
The usual business Of the court
was transacted. The only case Of
special interest beng that of JOS.
Boyd for the murder Of his uncle,
Thos @, Boyd, at SWeetwater, S&tur-
day.
1t seems to have been all a dream
TO the young man, who now begins
TO realize his crime and the penalty
likely to follow and his rash and
cruel act, and to suffer from appre-
hension OF his future lot. The
grand jury Investigated his case this
afternoon and were ready to take the
vote at the time Of adjournment.
The decision is without doubt an in
dlctment, and the general opinion is
that the case IS not bailabIe; the
prosecution are ready to proceed
with the tral at once, but the de
tense have made no announcement Of
their course as yet, but Will
probably have it postponed.
Among the noteworthy parties
present were Representative Daw-
son, Judge Brown, Of Knoxville;
Col. Blizzard, Of Athens; with many
others.
Monroe claims to be one of
the three counties in East Tennessee
that asks no time in paying its con-
tracts, but it is always ready to
down with the dust.
As q CHRONICLE man, we were
treated quite handsomely by Mon
roes substantial citizens, all Of
which is duly appreciated.
