 Mir John Pulver died January 3,1884. It is painful duty we owe the deceased to give the world something of the his tory of this young man. He was a native of New York state, losing his mother when little more than an infant; together with two other brothers he was thrown upon his own resources when quite young He seemed from the beginning to evince determination to make the best of his time and the means that lay in his power. Laboring during the summer season and attending school in the winter, he gained for him. self an education preparatory for the active duties of life. Nearly six years ago he married the second daughter of Mrs Morgan Tyler, thus founding for himself home, ever laboring for those he loved, doing well what his hands found to do, gaming the esteem of those with whom he had to do. It was re- marked at his funeral by Rev w. H. Evans that his was an example for many professed Christians to follow. He had stood by the sick bed of his wife by night and labored during the day until she was convalescent, when on Christmas day disease took a strong hold upon him and before the new year was scarce ly ushered in John Pulver was no more. He leaves young wife and fair daughter to mourn his loss. |

NASHVILLE,
The Cases Against EN-EAx.j' 'aIsectoF
Knight-Tfse River Rapidly Rising
A Female Fiend.

The Cases Against EN-ra x.i eIsector
Nnight-The River Rapidly Kissing
Female Fiend.
Special to the Appeal
NASHVILLE, TENN, March s.-The Su-
pTeme Court rendered a decision to-day
in the case of the mayor and City
Council of Nashville rs. w. A. Knight
knight gave bond to account for taxes
collected by him as trustee for the years
1876 and 1877, that were coming 70 the
city OF Nashville. In 1873 a settlement
was made by him, in which a balance
was found OF taxes of 1876, which balance
Knight then paid. Another settlement
was made in 1879 for 1877 taxes, and the
balance found due paid; but these settle
ments were made upon the statements of
the list furnished by knight. 1t was held
chat the settlement OF 1878 and 1879 was
not final, and facts sutficien; to justify the
reopening of the account Of 1876 and 1877
were found, which was done by the chan
ceilor, and the balance OF $1,000, found
20 be due by Knight to the
city, which decree the court affirms. The
act of 1877, extending the time for the col
lection of taxes, and providing that the
trustee give new bond, does not release
the trustees or sureties on the first bond.
Sureties on both bonds are liable to the
city.
Same rs. same-Another bill for de-
fault of 1873 taxes, $4,000. where the
sureties insist that the moneys collected
in 1873 went to pay off the taxes for the
previous years. There being no proof to
this effect judgment is-rendered against
them for that amount.
1t is reported tonight that Knight left
the city for California last Tuesday. No
one questioned has seen him since A
large number OF suits of the same nature
are pending against him in the Supreme
Court. He is the chief witness for the
State against Mrs. Rose Links, the dia-
mond-lifter.
The river is rising rapidly-three feet
an hour. The rise will be higher than in
February.
Coroner Campbell held an inquest over
the remains OF Priscilla Williams, aged
fifteen years. The testimony OF the mid
wife, Ann Tarpley, showed that the girl
came to her death from exposure; that
her mother, Nancy williams, forced her
10 walk a mile and half from the nurses
house home, eighteen hours afteIfchild-
birth. Nancy Williams is the same
woman who took her daughters
child few hours after birth,
stuffed its mouth with rags, and tied a
bandage so tight around its throat that il
choked to DEATH after which she threw it
on the river bank, where it was found.
The jury brought in verdict in accord
lnce with the facts, and Nancy Williams
was indicted formurderin the first degree.
