The Committee of Management of the
proposed bazaar by the Savannah Volun-
teer Guards Battalion, consisting Of Capts.
Il. c. Cunningham, John l.. Hammond
and r. II. Footman. has issued the follow
ing announcement to the public:
''On Dec. 10, 1885, a bazaar will be opened
in the arsenal by the Guards, the OBJ
ject of which viii be to raise money To
complete and furnish said building for the
uses for which it is constructed.
"1he Savannah public need not be re-
minded OF the steady devotion, persever-
auce, labor, and untiring energy of this
corps, for more than two years past, upon
this work. The ed.ice, now approaching
completion, has gradually and slowly
risen, with increasing strength and
beauty, and we hope and believe has sat
isied the most critical taste.
This IS public Improvement. 1t is THE
Arsenal so denOminated in the Legisi -
tive act, by which the larger portion of the
land on which it stands, was bydeed from
the State conveyed to the Guards, which
deed retained lmpor ant rights to the
State therein. All the aims and objects
OF the mill airy co pOration, which holds
the legal title thereto, are essentially pub

''Not a word need be said to the peonle

death, turbulence and ruin. Once in
their beautiful and permanent home, the

AT LAW OVER IN ESTATE.

Two Claim the Right to Administer on
CoIored NJ ans Property.
The adjudication of heirship, and the
granting of letters of administration on
the estate of Battise Rodney, colored, have
occupied the attention of the Court of
Ordinary Tor the past two days. Quite a
number Of witnesses were introd uced on
both sides, and every legal proposition
was earnestly contested 10y Messrs. w est
and Smith in behalf Of the brothers and
sister OF the deceased, and by Messrs.
Denmark and Adams in behalf of tie
caveatriX, Sarah Rodney. who claims TO
be the widow of the deceased.
1t appears that Ba,tise Rodney died in
estate on the 18th Of July, 1S-5, leaving
an estate worth about $1,000, and two
brothers aud sister. On July. 7. 1885,
John Rodney, a brother of deceased,
made application for temporary and per-
manent letters Of administration on said
estate. Temporary letters were granted
and the usual citation and order for per-
manent letters. To the application for
permanent administration Sarah Rodney,
through her attorneys, Messrs. Denmark
d Adams, filed her caveat upon the fol
lowing grounds: 1st, that John Rodney,
the applicant, was not the next of kin Of
the said interstate nor one Of
the distributes of his said es-
tate. but that said caveatriX
one was entitled to said estate; that
there were no debts due by the estate,
and that there were no children nor the
representatives OF children of the said in
testate, and therefore there was no neces-
sity for any administration; but # any
necessity for administration did exist the
said caveatriX was entitled to administer
as sole Distribute. The evidence estab-
lished the fact that Battlse Rodney and
Sarah Rodney were married on March 8,
1865, and were divorced in May, 1870
The Ordinary, after reviewing the case,
decided adversely 10 Sarah Rodney and
in favor OF the deceased's brother, John
