From the Circuit Court of Monroe coun-

Pledge Of personal property
COOPER, ].
J. NJ Acker was the owner of judg
ment against one Henley, a cotton
buyer in Aberdeen. Henley bought
some cotton from a farmer, and, not
having the money, obtained it from
Gattman & Co 1t is claimed that it
was then agreed that Gattman & Co.
should own the cotton until they were
repaid the sum which they had ad-
vanced to Henley for its purchase. The
cotton was delivered to a warehouse, and
the receipts was retained by Henley.
Gattman & Co., never had possession of
the cotton. Anexecution under Ackers'
Judgment was levied on it, Gattman &
Co., claimed it, and judgment was rem
dered against them, from which they
appealed. The controversy in the court
below appears to have been as to whether
| this transaction was covered by 4 1900
of the Code, requiring signs to be exhib
| tied by persons carrying on business as
agents Henley's place of business was
in drug store kept by another person,
and ne had no sign displayed. But
there is another point raised by counsel
for Acker, which we think disposes of
the case without reference to 1900.
The facts do not disclose case of
purchase by Henley as the agent of Gait
man & Co, The purchase was for Hen
| ley himself. The money p id was for
his account, and he is liable to Gattman
& Co. for it. The evidence shows only
an unexecuted agreement that Gattman
& Co., should have pledge on the
cotton to secure the payment of the
money advanced. There was no delivery
of the cotton, and thei efore no pledge.
In such cases, there cannot be lien
without possession. Affirmed.

Dispatches were sent to Coroner
DR.. j. G. Comfy on las. Monday in
forming him that VIM. Lehman, liv-
ing near Alcester, this county, had
been killed. DR.. Comfy was sick and
could not attend to the matter then.
The particulars Of the affair as near
ms we a learn are these. VIM.
Lehman took up some cattle belong
ing to a neighbor by the name Of
Getman, which were tresspassing
upon his premises. Getman sent
after the cattle, and Lehman let
them all 60 but one, which he re-
tanned until damages, which he
claimed, were paid. Getman and
his 16 year old boy went over on
Sunday to fix the matter up, when
at the cattle yards, about 40 rods
from Lehman's house, the two men
got into a quarrel, and Lehman run
at Getman with a pitchfork, which
Getman grabbed and they clinched
and fell, Getman under. While
Lehman was STOPPING over Getman
holding him, Getman's boy picked
up a piece of a fence board and
struck Lehman over the head, crack
ing his skull from the effects of
which he died in about s hours.
The people Of that vicinity became
considerable excited over the mat
ter and it was feared that the friends
of Lehman would lynch the Get
mans. Mr.. John Davis arrested
Getman and his boy and they were
brought here to-day. The Sheriff,
Dist. Attorney and and Hon. Alex.
Hughes, who has been retained by
the defendants, Getman. started this
morning for the scene of the trag-
edy, where an inquest will be hold
en- before a Justice of the Peace, the
coroner not being able to attend.
We shall await for further particu-
lars before we comment further up
on the matter.
