Haslam and myself we're appointed to
labor In Gadsden and Jackson counties
among Saints and friends. and can say
that since that time our sorrows have
been few aud our joys many One item
We will mention may be OF interest TO
your many readers. On entering the
little city Of Quincy, the county seat Of
Cidsden County, we In line oi our
duty, called on the Editor OF the Quincy
Head. aud found him to be au aged
gentleman OF about seventy. On intro
ducing ourselves we learned that his
name was w. w. Keep. lie said he
went e. Utah IN early days IN a company

"reminiscences OF Utah TO rs, which
were interesting. one we will mention;
He says he went to the home OF
Brigham Young with his feet badly
frozen ut one time, and stopped aud
was in the care Of Brigham for siK
weeks. While there a man by name Of
Washington Griffith died IN Governor
Young's care and Governor Young gave
Mr. Keep niccolo that belonged 10
Griffith. Mr Keep has the treasured
instrument today and showed u to Us; It
shows It's age as well rs does It's
worthy owner. Mr. Keep talked freely
with Va ana with hign spirits. He Is
now hardly able to get around owing to

but looks bright and cheerful aud
expects to visit Salt Lake City In the
spring, he also says he y the only one
among many living down here that can
say nc has seen the lace Of the Prophet
Joseph Smith.
Our labors have been crowned with
reasonable success In getting before the
people and we arc very greatly GU
couraged with our situation. Travelling
as the Seventy OF former DAYS, we often
find ourselves Ia the mansions Of the
most popular class OF the country. who
are eager TO hear what we have to say.
Some time ago We had the pleasure u
being entertained by the chaplain Of tho
state asylum, who deserves praise tot
his hospitality. He remarked when We
bid him good morning, that he had
learned something aud hoped we would
meet again. Thus the great beam Of

seems to prevail than IN former years.

ASSAULTED IN COURT.
A Woman Kicks and Punches Jack
son, the Alleged Murderer,
AND 1T FRIGHTENs THE PRISONER

He Seemed to Fear n Hostile Outbreak on
the Part of Those Assembled In tho Court
Room-Tbe Case Postponed for Two
Weeks.
NEWPORT, KY, April Scott jackson,
tho alleged murderer of Pearl Bryan, was
before Judge Holm yesterday for trial
Upon the application of his attorneys the
judge postponed the hearing until Tues
day, April 81
Tho grounds set forth by Colonel Craw-
ford In his application for postpone
mcnt were, first, illness In his family,
which had prevented him giving proper
attention to the case, and second, inability
to secure dispositions of witnesses residing
at a distance The attorney for the prose
cution made no serious objections to the
application.
The court said that the object stated by
Colonel Crawford was not in itself q suf-
fcient cause for granting n continuance
but in order to give ample time TO tho de-
Tense to prepare it's case he would mako
the postponement desired.
AS Jackson was leaving the court room
he passed in front OF woman sitting in
the front row of seats. He looked down
at her smiling, when the woman suddenly
delivered vicious kick at tho prisoner
and as he passed beyond her she was
heard to say: 81 would have killed him if
l could. If had had Il pistol I would
have shot him."
But for the fact that the spectators were
admitted on tickets, and that the incident
was not widely observed there might have
been trouble. There were about 1870 spec
tators outside the bar. OF women there
were not more than twelve. Mrs McCann
OF Falmouth, KY. the woman who kicked
jackson, also gave him a vicious punch in
the stomach with her fist. She remarked:
Its shame to put off his trial; he
ought to be hanged right away" and she
added, I'D like to help hang him myself. I"
Jackson looked more serious and showed
moro perturbation than he did at any pre-
vious appearance in court. He seemed to
be thoroughly frightened, Us though fear
ing an outbreak on the part Of those as
sembled.
Attorneys for tho prosecution doubt very
much whether the defense will try to
prove good character for Jackson. The
most probable course will be to attack the
character of the negro George II. Jackson
and William Wood. of Greencastle, Pearl
Bryan's cousin, both of whom will be
witnesses for the state.
