On Wednesday afternoon, the 9Th inst,
about nine miles south of che city, in Mar
tin Township, difficulty occurred between

while Mr.. Martin had passed his 10th year.
Mr.. Martin was never married, and for q
leng nun Der Of years had resided On the

as they might have beeu on the plantation.
The crisis came on Wednesday,, the 9th
inst, when Mr.. Martin was rendered un.
conscious by blow from piece of fence
rail in the hands, of MI. keaton. In this
unconscious state Mr.. Martin remained
until last Saturday afternoon, when he was
called from time into eternity. When this

himself from the effects Of the difficulty on
the preceding Wednesday, came to Ander-
son aud surrendered to Sheriff Bolt, at the
same time engaging the services of Messrs.
Murray & Murray, and ] l.. Tribble, Esq,
as his attorneys.

Sunday morning he went down to thescene
of the tragedy. "A jury OF inquest was at
once empanelled with Mr.. W. 7. Miller as
foreman.
