HER FIssT Fuss.

A squAtt-r's PathsthIs Story of the Time
He and His wife ouarrei-d.
The squAtter's cabin had grown to
p~retentious proportions during the forty
years he had occupied it. The old man
remained unchanged except for the eff
fects Of passing years. The crowd of
young people that had collected at his
house to spend the afternoon pressed
him to tell them a story of his early life
in that region.
After a little hesitation he began:
'Lemme see. hits jist forty-fo' year ergo

account Of Bowden killing Reynolds al
late. Ga: fs9 - NsnAa Sass
A crowd gathered ct Taylor Pressley's
grog shop. near Tate's in Pickens county
on Christmas day. and. after freely imbib.
ing ofthe fiery liquid, began to grow more
or less hilarious and abusive of one another.
Mr.. Bowden, the recently appointed store
keeper and gaugers at Pressley's distillery,
and Mr.. Ray got into pretty sharp words
at the grocery Of Pressley's, and in order
to keep down difficulty between the two,
Rays friends took him outside the house.
Soon afterwards, sowe are told, Bowden
began to flourish his pistol about and
ordered every man to leave the house. or
he would shoot Them His manner seemed
to have frighteued,the loungers around, as
they all Immediately left, except Mr..
Stewart Reynolds, who, being perhaps,
Supplied and almost insensible from the
effects Of the whiskey he had drunk, re-
manned leaning against the counter. See
ing Reynolds had mot obeyed his orders
Bowden put his threat into execution, and
pulled the trigger Of his pistol When the
smoke had cleared away it was found that
Reynolds was shot in the bowels. Rey-
nolds was taken charge Of. by his friends
and carried home, where he died on the
night of the following day. ,Bowden was
arrested soon afterthe shooting and carried
to the Pickeps county jail where he was
confined until Tuesday last when Sheriff
johnson brought him to Canton Jail for safe
keeping, having been directed to do SO by
Judge Gober. m tg@ e..@..,.
Bowden is young man we'll connected,
and has many friends to back him with
their money and influence in this time of
his great need and trouble; Reynolds was a
poor but hard working man, and leaves a
