July %, 1886. I
A few days ago colored woman
named Green, the wife Of Robert Green,
who resides in the lower part Of the
county, undertook to kindle fire with
kerosene oil. The result was that she
was burned to death. The experience
Of q generation does not seem sufficient
to make people heed the dangers Of
kerosene.
A barn Of ex-Judge +. L. Taylor
was recently struck by lightning. The
damage was not very serious.
The county along the different wa
tercourses is entertaining a goodly
number Of town people, who are un'
dergoiDg their summer rustication.
This community has suffered very
| serious loss in the recent death Of the
smiable and popular Mrs. Annie Shack
elfoId, the devoted wife of Alexander
Shackelford, Esq. She was, in all the
relations Of life, emphatically a good
woman.
The continued rains, it is feared, will
seriously injure the crop Of waterme-
Ions, which, in some sections, has for
several years been very remunerative,
In some parts of the county the corn i;
very fine in others, especially the low.
grounds, it is much injured by the
continued fall of rain. MI.

BOid Robbery.

At midnight Wednesday some un'
known man entered the depot at Macomb
and finding no one there but the night OPP
orator, young man-Mr. Uppergraff, 16
years ld,-drew revolver, ordered him
to deliver what money there was in the
safe. The young man did what he was
bid and the thief only got away with
$3.50 proceeds from the sales of tickets
and freight money received that day. 1t
seems there was land excursion west
and this accounts for the large amount on
hand. After the robbery was done and
the young man gained his senses, the re-
volver was found in the office where the
thief left it, and found to be empty. No
arrests have been made and no clue to the
perpetrator of the daring robbery is oh
tainable.
