Country Squire" Thursday night in
"Man and Wife" Miss Wainwright needs
no introduction to a Savannah audience.
II is always pleasure to see and hear
her, and the more so because she invaria-
bly, surrounds herself with a capable
company, and presents PLAYS of indisputa-
BILE merit In "Man and Wife" Miss
Wainwright has play which should
prove potent attraction, and one, more
over, that has the additional merit of
being almost a novelty here.
All readers of modern fiction know the
exciting story of Wllkie Collins, on which
the play is founded, but they are not ia
miliar with the mastery manner in which
Augustin DAILY has transferred it to the
stage, using all of Collins thrilling situa-
tions, and presenting its sharply defined
characters with dramatic contrast and
convincing force. The dialogue of the
original, so brilliant in it's wit and cpl
gram, and so terse and vigorous in its
stronger passages, has been used when
ever possible. In the character OF. Annie
Sylvester, Miss Wainwright is said to
have been remarkably successful.

The Country Squire Tonight and

"The Country Squire' will be at the
theater tonight and tomorrow matinee
and night. The play is considered by
competent critics TO be one of the best of
its character on the stage The moral
tone is elevated above the plays that are
ordinarily seen, there being not a scene
or incident that could offend the sensi-
bilities Of the most prudish. A charm
pervades the entire play that holds one
from the rise of the curtain till it is rung
down. The charm lies in the very sim
plicity of the scenes and situations that
are presented. MIR. Archie Boyd has
reputation as an actor of excellence, and
the reputation of his company is of the
same caliber.

Mrs. Mary Wagner Faulkner, aged
seventy-seven years, died suddenly
Yesterday morning, Tuesday, April
2ud, about quarter past o'clock
of congestion of the lungs. She was
paying visit TO her daughter, Mrs.
William S. Love. The deceased was
daughter of Gen. Elisha Boyd of
BoydviIle, Berkeley county, w. Va.
Her mother was n Miss Holmes, q
sister of Governor and Judge Holmes.
Upon the death of her father, more
than half century ago, she inherited
the beautiful estate of "BoydvilIe, "
where she has resided ever since.
She married at the age of sixteen the
late Hon. Charles James Faulkner.
She had eight children--Judge Z.
Boyd Faulkner, Senator G.. j. Faulk-
ner, Mrs. Mary Campbell, of Ken
lucky, Mrs. Pierce, Mrs. Thos. Bo-
cock, Mrs. McSherry, of Martins
hung, Mrs. Love, of Winchester, and
Mrs. j. w. Flood. All survive her
except Mrs. Flood. Her grand
children living in Winchester are the
Misses Love, Mrs. r. e. Byrd and
Mrs. Douglass Fuller. In her youth
she was n remarkably beautiful wo-
man. and even at the great age OF
seventy-seven she remained strik-
ingly handsome.
She was a most attractive illustra-
ton of an old fashioned, highbred,
courteous lady. A true consort and
helpmeet of her distinguished hus-
band she early became used to as
sociatious with the great ones of the
nation. At the Court of Louis Ma
poIeon, the most brilliant in Europe,
she was conspicuous for her beauty
of person and manners, and worthily
maintained the Evolutionary reputa-
ton of Virginia danes. She was in
social way of great assistance to
her husband, and the hospitality of
Boydville under her administration
became famous throughout Virginia.
Possessed of ample means, she was
always charitable to the distressed
and exquisitely thoughtful of the
feelings of all.
Harshness and discourtesy were
abhorrent TO her superbIy high bred
nature, and it is doubtful if in all of
her life she was ever guilty of dis
courteous word or act. Her children
and grandchildren were much de-
voted to her and experienced sense
of acute bereavement in her sudden
taking away. OF lovely character
and blameless life, she died without
pain and without warning and takes
with her the blessings of those who
enjoyed her bcnefactions and. the
tears of her children.

An Important Decision.

We are indebted to the courtesy of
Hon. Q. S. Long, clerk of the SUI
preme Court of Appeals of West Vir-
ginia, for copy of the printed rec
ord in the recently decided case of
Wilson VS.. the Town of PhiIippi, also
for the syllabus ofthe decision, which
this and other towns being inter
ested therein-we append below:
1. A court of equity will not en-
join the collection of a tax assess
mcnt on town lot, to pay for tho
construction ola sidewalk in front of
the same, ordained by the council of
an incorporated city or town, on the
sole ground that such tax or assess
ment is illegal; some additional cir
camstanccs bringing the case under
some recognized head of equity juris-
diction must also appear.
=. The fact that the statute de
clares that such assessment made for
constructing q sidewalk shall be n
lien on the lot in front of which the
same is constructed, does not create
such cloud upon the title as to con
fer equitable jurisdiction.
3. Section 81 of Chapter Al, of the
Code, authorizing the council of
city or town, where the owner of
property adjacent to sidewalk fails
or refuses TO pave such sidewalk, to
cause the same TO be done at the ex.
pense of the city, or town or village.
and to assess the amount of such ex-
pensc upon such ewner, to be collect
. ed in the manner provided for the
collection of the city, town or village
taxes, held not repugnant TO the con-
stitution.

a War Incident.

RIPPoN, ". Va, April 4. "a.
Or. Mr.. Hdtnes To-day i have
been meditating over the past and
my thoughts have taken me back to
the cruel war of 'G1. There was an
incident that happened in the fall of
'63, and think in the month of Sep
TENDER, that have for many years
felt it my duty to have mentioned in
the public press. One evening on
the date above mentioned about 3
O'Clock in the afternoon, n merry
group of youngsters, among them
DIR. j. p. BGrwell, now q prominent
physician of Washington, d. c., and
myself. were grazing and secretiug
from the yankee army a very valua-
BILE lot of horses on Burwell's Island,
situated in Clarke county, Va,
when all of asudden Mosby's Battal-
ion dashed into us being holly pur-
sued by Capt. Blazer, who was sent
to that vicinity to route our gallant
Mostly and who was shortly after
wards captured by Rev. S. G. Fer
guson who is now a very prominent
Methodist minister. The writer was
in charge of very fine blooded
horse belonging to Mr.. Jas. Nevill,
father OF Mr.. A. V. Nevill of Mill
wood, Va. On this spirited steed l
made dive for the east side of the
Shenandoah, jumping stone fence
and down perpendicular bank som c
fifteen feet, with bullets flying as
thick rs gnats in August. 1 made
for lane on the opposite side which
was enclosed by a very high fence.
Being so closely pursued 1 became
frightened and jumped from my
steed and ran to the bushes; my
horse wheeled and ran back to the
enemy and was never heard of again.
Now comes the sad part of my story.
After this excitement was over
deathIike silence seemed to prevail,
which caused Mir. NJ. T. Royston,
Calvin Stump, John May and Frank
Doran TO 90 back over the ground and
see if any one of their fellow soldiers
were killed. 1t was not long until
they returned bringing the lifeless
form of & stately looking gentleman
who was stranger. He was laid out
at unclc's house, the night l shall
never forget, the sad expressions of
that face, and how / felt for his loved
ones at home. He was buried the
next day in pine box down on the
banks of the river, and think some
months later he was taken TO Win
ches ter, Va, and perhaps buried in
the mound of the unknown dead.
don't know this for certainty, but it
should not have been the case, for L
distinctly remember seeing his name
on his collar, Col. Edward BridiII, N.
C.. L have often wondered if his
people ever received his body.
(Clark Courier please copy.) Many
OF the noble hearted heroes who
figured with Mosby in those days
have taken their everlasting fight
and we will never behold them again
on this earth, hut we hope to meet
them again. Among them our dear
friends and brothers Geo. w. Copen-
haver, Calvin Stump and Frank
Doran are gone. L. NJ. L.

Major John Ogden Murray of the
9TH Va. Cavalry delivered very in
teresting address before the Confed-
crate Camp on Monday evening. His
subject was an episode of the winter
of 1S94-5-involying his recollection
of the six hundred Confederate pris-
oners of war WHO were transferred
from Fort Delaware to different
points in the South and their suisse
Quent return after months of hard
ship. His story of the cruel treat
mcnt to which these brave men were
subjected at all times by authority of
Secretary Stanton, and in particu-
lar of their suffering while stockaded
at Morris Island and Fort Pulaski
was graphically told; and his narra-
ton was the more interesting because
the speaker was himself one of these
brave but unfortunate men and an
eye witness of the circumstances
about which he spoke.
