Testimony Being Taken in the Foun-
tain-Kelly Contest.

Jd4l4-1A0AAJ OO--bCGb.
Testimony was taken yesterday before
Ju tice L. b. Endres in the contest case OF
J. D. Fountain against Paul Kelly (colored).
Paul Kelly was elected justice of the
peace in the Seventh district on Jan. 5.
j. d Fountain Sc we'd a notice upon him
that he would object to his being commits
stoned justice Of the peace. The grounds
of objection were that tho election was not
held according TO law and the requirements
of the statute, the place where held and the
hour Of opening and closing the polls nos
being in compliance with the statutes regu-
iatIng and controlling elections.
Dir. Fountain also filed as part Of his doc
umentar evidence a commission by Gov
Gordon, dated Jan. "a, 1887, as justice Of
the peace and ex-ofiicio notary public for
five years from the date Of the commission.
Kelly's counsel objected 10 the notice Of
protest. rs il did not set forth when and
where the election should have been held
also, the nltnc pro tune entry Of protest,
and further, that Founta ain being at present
the i-cumb ut OF the office Of justice of the
peIce, he is not proper person to contest
the election.
The facts as disclosed by the testimony
are tlat Mr.. Fountain was commissioned to
ill the upe1pired term Of James Grant,
and the governor gave him a four-year
Office would have expired Jan. 5 last, got a
crowd OF negroes over from the Ogeechee,
and without any effort to hold the election
in Justice Fountains Office, the LEGAL place
for holding an election, and there being no
justice Of the peace TO preside, the crowd II
colored men hung around Henry Fountains
store, $50 yards distant, until after IL
o'clock, wien they put ballot-box in
front # Justice Fountains store, selected
freeholders from among the negroes, and
cast 50 70 as for Paul Kelly for justice of
the peace, Al for Limmise Green for con-
stable aud IS for Abraham Staley cor stable,
all colored. A few minutes before o'clock p.
m. they closed the polls. AID Morris Burke
Samuel Elliott and Daniel Stuart certified
the election 70 the clerk Of the superior
court Of Chatham county. Fountain ar
rested the commission to Kelly. and a mass
Of testimony has been taken the past two
days to sustain the objection.
Justice Fountain, in his testimony, shows
that no effort was made to secure the court
room for an election; that he had intended
to advertise himself as a candidate, but as
lis commission was for four years aud as
he had two years to serve he Withdrew his
advertisement on the idea that the jur sdic-
ton Of the K vernon of Georgia is unlimited.

he is constantly receiving. He has recently
received an order to paint the portrait of
E. L. Corninq, a wealthy and distinguished
merchant of New York, to be hung in the
