Willis Hawks and L. Hawks made a bru-
tai assault on J. E. Minnish Wednesday
night as Minnish was riding in his buggy
along the road to Danielsyiile from Har-
mony Grove. Suddenly he was confronted
by two men, who stopped the horse. sud
catching Mlnnish by the neck, they twisted
him out of the buggy. They then
applied the buggy whip most brutally
ana broke II in several place. or
course Minnish could offer but very little
resistance. 1t seems that bad feeling ex-
lists between the parties. Minnish was the
cause of true bill beng found against one
OF the Hawks boys, for the reason that sev-
eral weeks ago they went aud pulled him
out OF the bed and beat him. The finding
Of the true bill seems to have been the cause
Of the second difficulty.
Sylvania Telephone: Bob Edenfield, who
lives about three miles below Sylvania.
killed q most wonderful COW last Friday Il
was wonderful not alone that It was nice
and tender beef, but still more wonderful in
the various assortment Of relics that II had !
collected in its antiquarian stomach. Here |
is what Mr.. Edenfield found and an old |
curiosity shop it was indeed: Thirty~fve |
cents In money-three dimes and nickle; |
an old Indian arrowhead that had doubtless |
belonged to Tomichichi or some Of b duskv |
tribe; large variety of crockeryware |
of various sorts and sizes, some of 1t dating |
back to snte-bellum days. I'VE are not sure. |
but we believe Mr.. Edenfeld said in this |
particular collection there were some pieces |
OF old Indian pottery:; the clasp and other |
parts of pocketbook; several silver and |
brass pieces of metal which looked as IL they |
might have been the currency of au extinct |
civilization; a number of rocks of all colors |
aud sizes, and bones of many curious and |
complex shapes. Besides this, various other |
minor articles were found in the capacious |
bosom OF this COW, many of which we have |
not time to enumerate.
Meager details of horrible murder have |
reached brunswick. 1t was the subject eff |
discussion among crowd of negroes at the |
city dock yesterday. They said the story had |
been told them by negro named Sears. VIII |
ives near Hilery Island. on Turtle river. |
sears had brought some truck to town and |
'old 1t and had returned to his home. The |
negroes who talked with him gave the fol- |
owing account of the tragedy. The cabin
II the parents of the children who figured as
murderer and murdered was situated near
/ high bluff on Turtle river. The two little
negroes were brothers, presumably, about )
md 10 years of age. The older child seems
20 have been perfect demon incarnate
aver since his birth-cruel whenever he had
IN opportunity of showing it, refractory
and ungovernable. Early yesterday morn
ng the two brothers had childish dispute.
They began fighting, but thsir parents in
terposed and stopped it. The:older brother
looked like perfect demon in his fury, and
v owed he was going to kill the younger.
Not long after they both went Oft in the
bushes to play, evidently on good
terms. In about q half hour the older brother
alone. He was asked wnere his
younger brother was, and answered dog
gedly that he didn't know. A search was
made, but the missing child could not be
found. The supposition is that the elder
brother iuticed him near the bluff and
pushed him off. The parents were wild
with grief. and it is said thsy came near
beating the young fratricide TO death
