The Marietta journal. [volume] (Marietta, Ga.) 1866-1909, 1895-01-31


Bishop, Marshal Moon and Bailiff Morris
went out to the place Wednesday evening
to investigate and see if they conld get on
track OF the burglars. They didn't get the
guilty parties to this transaction, but they
visited Ed Collins house, colored, and
there they arrested Collins and Will
Thompson, colored. Thompson had taken
refuge in a loft, bat he was made to come
down and submit to arrest. Mr.. Bishop
went up into the loft and found that
Thompson was reclining on a sack of
goods, nearly two bolts OF drilling that had
been stolen FROM the Car on the W. & A.
R. R., at the time Bob Dixon and others
broke it open. Mr.. Bishop also found a
new pistol which he took charge of along
with the stolen goods. At preliminary
trial Collins was discharged, but Thompson
was bound over and is in Jail Our new
officers have made good beginning and
are vigilant to do their duty. The arrest
of these car breakers is good piece of
of work and will break up gang of
thieves who prefer to make their living by
depredating on others.
B. R. Legg & Bro. extend a cordial in,
vitation to the ladies Of Marietta and the
surrounding country, to come and see

Mr.. Johnnie Webb, workman at Mr..
S. A. Andersons new paper mill, at the
depot, met with an accident last week
which resulted in breaking his right arm.
He was descending ladder in the we'll at
the paper mill, where the workmen are at
work drilling, when he lost his footing apd
fell to the bottom, about twenty feet, his
body striking on some iron. His right arm
was broken above the elbow and his back
was hnrt to some extent. 1t is miracle
almost that he was not killed. Drs. Tens
nent and Nolan set the fractued limb and
he will doubtless soon be all right.

From information talked on the streets,
we published last week that MRS. May
Fowler had died in Los Angeles, Califor-
MIA. We have reasons to believe that the
report is erroneous, from the fact we have
seen letter from Mrs. Fowler, since then,
dated January 18th, 1895, and although
her health is very wretched, she was living
at that time. The report of the death of
Mrs. g go. W. Cleveland we also nave rea-
son to believe is erroneous, although it was
told here on the streets.
