Denison Gazetteer:-Our old
friend, D. S. Harvest. came down
from McAlister, I. T., the past
week and reports that section as
being greatly IN Eeep of rain. the
mines there are greatly retarded
BIZ sickness, over fifty of the min
ers being prostrated with bilious
fever. Last week a
young man came 70 town and Of
fered for sale a mare worth about
$50. He offered her at such low
figures as to raise the suspicion Of
officer nixon, who took him in
charge. He gave his name as wm.
J. LetterInan, which proyes TO be
correct. it turns out that he killed
a man named Pete Lee in the ChOc-
taw Nation. near Golden bluff, on
the 6th Of July last. He had letters
from John ThiIkeld, and Lilly
Thilkeld, of the Nation and from
q. r. Douglass, q merchant doing
business on the Texas side Of Red
river at Golden Bluff. The letters
from the gentlemen advised him to
get clear away; that the proof of
the killing was positive; that the
killing was for the purpose Of rob
berry, etc. II seems that Lee had
told Letterman that he carried 500
in his boots. and the proof is that
when the latter killed the former
he pulled off his boots and search
ed them. The letter from Miss Lii
IL Thilkeld indicates; that she was
engaged to be married to Letter
man; that he was urgin her to con-
sumate the contract; but she Pru-
IDENTIFY ins listed that it would be
better TO defer the match until he
got out of trouble. All the letters
were addressed TO Wm. ]. Owens.

A LEGEND
DY +. A.

At the time of which we write there
stood on the outskirts of noble forest.
with park land stretching for miles be-
fore it, gray old mansion, relic of the
fuedal times, termed in the "Dooms-Day
Book" Bosworde hall.
No finer building or estate existed in
the county, with the exception of that OF
Sir Sutton de Ambien, at Ambien, whose
deeds of cbivalry and great largesses to
the poor had rendered him the theme Of
many squire's song.
Tue lands of this noble bounded on
the estate of Sir wolstan de Willoughby,
baron of Bosworde.
Just tire opposite Of his neighbor be
was cold, churlish, and withal of a
bloody disposition, and his favorite say
ing was:
II never forgive an injury"
Between the two there had long sprung
up fued, which bid fair some day TO
lead 10 deadly strife.
Sir Sutton, however, who was SOM
twenty summers younger than Sir Vol.
stan, set out for the holy land to per-
form a vow, and thus an immediate
quarrel was avertej.
The lady of Sir Wolstan was dead and
had left behind her two sons and one
daughter, who vas remarkable for her
beauty. Eleanor-for such was her
name-had mona of her fathers qualities,
but, acting on every impulse, was at the
same time so sensitive that she felt keen
ly his ohurlishness, and. by many secret
acts of kindness and visits to the poor,
had endeared herself TO all around; aud
between her and Sir Sutton a secret at.
taehment arose previous to his depar.
ture.
"Nay, listen to me, fair lady, and lei
not thy fathers enniity stand between
us. Have not in foreign lands with
stood the wild fury of the horseman oi
the desert, and warded off the secre
blows of the assassin? Have I not, in tn,
open lists, laid at my feet knight aftel
knight without receiving a wound2 And
think'st thou, then, that thy fathers
words could frighten me, his menaceI
terrify me, or his threats drive me from
my purpose? l will be up TO him thii
eve, open my heart to him, with extend
ed hand break the enmity between us
and claim thee, fair Eleanor, as m,
bride"
IF thou wishest, Sir Sutton, to des
troy all hopas of our union, to mar oul
future happiness. and run thy life Int
danger. thou wilt do as thou sayest
This night Sir Simon de Montford tarri
eth here, and thou knowest my father
wish to unite him to me. 1 shudde
when think of it. for would sooner
viper would nestle in my bosom thai
that should ever be called Eleanor d
Montfordy'
"But brook not delay when so preol
ous guerdon is at stake, and that
may communicate to thee the result,
at yon ruined tower when the cuIfe,
tolls"
And with this Sir Sutton bounde
away, and was soon lost in the thicknei
of the wood,
But, that our readers may know ho'
this interview took place, We must il
form them that Sir Sutton had just II
turned from bis six years pilgrimag'
and was inspecting the changes that ha
taken place on his lands during his al
sencS
