HARRINGTON, July s-The Fourth
passed off very quietly here, and IL
couldn't have been otherwise, as there
were scarcely enough OF US left to get up
the least particle Of excitement. Patriotic
colors and gala day at Fulton, only six
miles from us, and big day at Milford
drew the most of our citizens away; but
few as our numbers were. there had TO
be Something" to wind up the quie-
tude of the day. While a few of our
boys were having a good time
in front Of Germroth's store, Beniah
Fleming deliberately walked out his
house and with his gun shot four times
into the crowd, striking some about the
face and other parts of the body. The
young meA went Immediately to Squire
Clarks office and swore out warrant.
This was about 10 80 o'clock at night,
and next morning Fleming was
arrested by Constable Wyatt, and
after hearing the squire held
him in $500 bail for his appearance
at court. 1t was an ugly piece of bust
ness Constable Wyatt went his bail
and to this the young men objected, but
this was ruled out aud thus endeth this
ehapter.
Young Tatman who was arrested some
time ago for seducing a young girl in
