Judge Mcdowell yesterday rendered de-
cision in a very important case, or rather Sc
ries OF csses. Indeed, it is detained TO be-
come, and has already become, partially an
historic lawsuit. The following cssss we're
tried together before Judge Mcdowell: L.
II. Cannon snd vile vs. E. M. Apperson, ex-
ecutor of Wade H. Bolton; S. J. Goldsby
and wife Is. same, J. A. Andrews aud wife U.s.
same, and county OF Shelby IS same. These
suits are intimately associated in The public
mind with the famous Bolton Dickens feud,
in which several representatives, of each
family were killed. W II. Bolton died in
1869, and he made sn extremely bitter aud
unusual will, in which he took occasion 10
aIude to 80 d Tom Dickens" as land
pira'e. The cau.e OF the f-ud was suit to
settle the affairs Of Bolton. Dickens
& Co., negro dealing firm. While this
firm was in business one Of the
partner, Isaac l.. Bolton, killed q man
nsmad Mcmillan. He was tried for il, and
the expense of defending ran up 10 the
enormous cum of Sl08,G00, which, it was
claimed, WAS paid by Wade II. Bolton out
OF the funds of Bolton, Dicken. & Co. Wade
Bolton, Thomas Dickens and Samuel Dick
ens all died violent deaths on account of the
suit.
E NJ Apperson was appointed executor
OF w. II. Bolton. As the old Dickens. Bolton
case was not settled, he refused to pay the
legscies mentioned in the will and contested
some of them. The receipts made by Apper-
con in the aggregate were $30S, los SO; the
expenses of winding up the estate were S73,-
687 IS. This left the e1csss of receipts over
slltaxes, expense s. etc, s234, All 70. To ltga-
tees, distributes, snd for debts, S167. 54S Is
was paid out. The balance on hand is S74,-
