SUSAN ERERRAR0T.
ne' Case Recalled by tbs Gsatb of
Mathews.

Ex'Sheriff w, H. Mathews, of
Webster county, died in Sumter
county from an overdose of lauda,
mum. There are many who insist
that 1t was suicide. Mathews was
sheriff Of Webster when Susan
Eberhardt was hanged. She was
the only white woman ever hanged
IN Georgia, In 1871, Miss Eber,
hardt, a buXom country phil, aged
10, was an innate of the house Of
a well known farmer named Spanr,
One morning Mrs, Spann was
found dead in bed while her hus-
band and the girl were missing.
The wife had been choked to death
by stuffing white handkerchief
down her throat. The excitement
which followed spread to all parts
OF the State. For six days the guil>
ty pair were pursued on dozen
different trails, and were finally
run down on the Alabama line.

The sad death of Mr.. James F.
Hardwick, Which occurred LIST Sum-
day at II o'clock a. m. cast a gloom
over the entire community, as he
left wife and five small children
to battle with the trials of life He
was sick only two days, and all that
friends could do to alleviate his
sufferings was done, but death, the
messenger, has called him away,
and it makes it doubly sad to wit
mess the grief of his stricken wife
with her helpless babies clinging to
her as their all and ell.
We often meet with things we
cannot understand why it is "all
for the best" but the Ruler at the
helm governs well and wisely, and
we are all His to do with us what
He sees best. By and by we can
know and see through, it all, for
now we see through glass darkly,
but there face to face" The people
all sympathize deeply with the
family.
May the comforter visit them in
this affection, and be their guide
through sll the ills of life.
