From Llano County.

Editor san Antonio Light
BLunToN, Llano County, September
l2.-Judge Il. G. Beeson, District Clerk
and Recorder of this county, died at his
home In Llano day before yesterday Of
consumption, with which he had been
lingering for several years. lie had
held the position of clerk for number
of years, and was greatly respected ms
an officer and man. lie was buried at
Llano yesterday with Masonic honors.
j. W. Roundtree, one of the leading
stock men of this county, Is held In $1,000
bond for shooting and seriously wound
ing man named StOll, a road overseer.
The shooting took place on last Satur-
day, the trouble being that StOll
was having a road worked through
Rountree's pasture, which the latter
forbid, claiming that the road was va
Gated and Stoll claiming that he had
orders from the road commissioners TO
work 1t. 1t has since been asoerIained
that the road was annulled after the
order given the overseer to work, but he
was not aware of IL, so that both parties
TO the shooting, like the six blind men of
Hindoostan, were partly In the right
and partly in the wrong in the matter.
w. q. Il. Holman, the Llano saloon
maa who recently shot an ex-saloOn
keeper named Townsend, is held in
$4,000 bond for his appearance at Dis
trict court. The cause of the shooting
in this case is not explained, but 1t is
supposed to be the outgrowth of some
private quarrel. 1t is thought Townsend
will recover, but his wounds are oonsid-
cred dangerous.
The County Jail is now standing with
open doors, the last prisoner, n man
named Monk, confined for petty larceny,
having been released one day this week.
