LETTER FROM ROCK HILL.

Rock HILL, S. c., October 26.-Mr. B.
| NJ. Fewell, one of Rock Hill's most popular
young men, was married at Greensboro,
n. c., on Thursday night last, to Miss
Anna CALDWELL, a beautiful and accomplish
ed young lady, formerly of Jackson, Ten
nessee. The ceremony was performed by
DIR. Smith, in the Presbyterian church,
which was handsomely decorated. The at
tendants were Messrs. Z. r. Avery, Frel
Mobley, Ed: Fewell, T. J. CornWell, Of Rock
Hill, and Mr.. Percy Grey, Of Greensboro,
with Misses Minnie Caldwell, Daisy DON
nell, Carrie Caldwell, of Greensboro, and
Misses Carrie Hutchison and Minnie Few
ell, of Rock Hill. Mr.. Fewell and his bride
returned to this place on Friday afternoon.
On Friday night they were given an ele-
CANT reception at the residence Of MIR. A.
F. FeWell, where they met their many
friends, who wished them all the happiness
that this world can give. They were the
recipients of many handsome and costly
presents. Tonight the young men of Rock
Hill will give a hop in Roddey's Hall,
complimentary to them.
Trial Justice Fewell had several cases
before him last week. The first case was
against Wylie Cureton, colored for assault
and battery with intent to kill The party
assaulted being Green Smith, colored. For
want of evidence the case was dismissed.
Smith at once procured warrant for Cure
ton, charged with the same offence, but up
to this time Cureton has evaded arrest.
The next case was against John Williams
and VIM. Perkins, for breach of trust with
fraudulent intent. John Williams failed
to appear, but Perkins was sent to Jail for
thirty days.
The case which attracted the most atten-
tion was that ofGeo. Deas VS.. R. II. Ratteree.
1t seems that Ratterree traded horses with
Deas, and misrepresented the horse: Deas
brought action for S75 damages. He was
awarded $50 by the jury.
A negro woman who lives on Mr..
G.. NJ. Culp's plantation, six miles south of
this place, on Saturday last, locked her
three children (the oldest about six years.
in her house, and went into the field to
pick cotton. During her absence the house
caught on fire, and when the mother re-
turned she found her children burnt to a
crisp. This is becoming too common, and
it should be made a criminal offence to lock
children in a house alone.
Rev. A. p. Pugh, pastor of the Baptist
church at this place, returned from Mlssls-
sippi on Friday last and preached to his
congregation on yesterday.
Miss Kitty c. Hall, daughter of DR.. r. I.
NJ. Hall, died on Saturday last in the 18th
year Ol ner aye, anu was pulleu Jeo.GiuaS
in Ebenezer church yard. She was follow
ed to her last resting place by large con-
course of sympathizng friends and num-
Der of her late school mates.
The cotton crop in this section will not
turn out as we'll a expected. L heard
Il farmer say on Saturday that he had seven
tenants, who last year made from ten to
twelve bales to the horse who would only
make four bales this year. This is to be
deplored, considering the low price of the
staple. HAL.
In the Sessions Court of Spartanburg,
last week, David J. Telfair, white, was
