IA Rural Citizen Becomes a Victim of the
 Scorcher-.His Letter Verbatim.

The following is a verbatim copy of a letter received a day or two ago by a well-known bicycle firm in this city:
 Deer Sirs-I live on mi farm neer this place, am 57 yeers old and am just lit- tie sportie
 My neffew in burmham bot hisself a new bisicle and sent me his old one by frate, and i've learned to ride some. It's a pile of fun but mi bisicle jolgs cunsider- able.
 A fellzr came along yisterday with one of your bisicles, that had holler injun robJer fires, stuffed with wind. He let me tri hissen, and mi, it run just like a kushin. He tole me you sell injun robber just the same as hissen, or I could swap mine for a burmiham bisicle. How much will it be to fix mine same as hissen, or to swap mine for one of your mani factur of bisicles? Mine is all ion weels.
 Do you punch the lloller hole thru the rubber or will have to do that miself? !? How do you stick the ends together after you get 1t dun?
 l. If your injun robber is alredy holler will i; cum cheeper empty? I can get all the wind out here free. Yures truly,

BACK TO GEORGIA
Was Will Brown Taken to Answer to a Charge of Murder--He was Well Marked.

A few days ago two of Sheriff O'Brien's efficient deputies arrested negro named Will Brown, at Ishkooda, on charge of carrying concealed weapons.
 In communicating with the sherlffs of this and adjoining states Sheriff O'Brien found that Brown was wanted in Cedar town, Ga, for murder, his identity being @coinpleted by marks on his person.
 1t is parged that Brown killed Jim Hearan on November 21, 1891, by shoot ing. him through the heart with a 44-cali- .bre revolver. One of the remarkable things about the affair is that Hearan walked down stairs and had gone some distance across the yard before falling dead and this. with a great jagged hole torn through the very center of his heart. Brown was arrested shortly after and was convicted of the crime. While in the court room on the day of his convic- ton he made a sudden dash for liberty, eSeapfng through one of the windows before the startled deputies could stop him. Instant pursuit was given but in some remarkable manner he managed to elude his would-be captors and was at libertynntil a few days ago, when he was eAdrested. a
 rfsf0wn7was taken to Cedartown Ga, under escort of Sheriff Brooks, of that place.

OLD MEMORIES BROUGHT UP
By Visit to Murphreesboro-Som of Them Pleasant, Others Sad, Says Adjt. A c. Oxford, of Camp
 
 Jeff Davis. tsss

.Adjt A. C.. Oxford of Camp Jeff Davis, returned yesterday from Nashville where he had been in attendance at the reunion of Confederate Veterans as delegate from that camp A
 Adjutant Oxford, in conversation with a State Herald reporter, spoke pleasant ly of the days spent with old comrades in the cause so dear to him, and in dwell- ing UT )n the many "reminiscences heard, said rnat there were many pathetic as well as soul stirring tales of daring, bravery, and more often hardship and suffering by men who wore the gray. [ There wsre veterans with one arm, some with one leg, some whose snowy locks, made white in night, spoke in silent tones of the dread days which tried mems souls. Some of the dearest sights to the old Confederate was the many battle flags which were waved aloft to spuiTme n on to victory when dread defeat was staring them in the face. Many of the old tattered and bullet-riddled flags were the handlwork of fair women of the dear Southland. whose Sunday frocks had been sacrificed in order that the brave sol. dier boys might have a beacon light to guide them in their marches to victory or defeat
 There were familiar faces at the re- union, some of whom. he said, might, ere they meet again, be called to answer the Long Roll'' in the great beyond where the leader is the Captain of Hosts. and whose staff officers are white winged an- gels in countless thousands. Then, too, he said there are places already made vacant by the dread destroyer whose scythe knows no man, the great and small alike being his harvest.
 Adjutant Oxford, before returning home, visited the battle field at Mur- phrs esboro, place where the memory re- verted to scenes of bloodsed and carnage, and where when the bloody battle had ended there were thousands of missing from the ranks of the Confederates and FederaIs, and whose names when called were not answered to unless by the most solemn of w.sds fosent." This was the veterans first visit to the field since the day of bloodshed and carnage and sad memories lowered thick around him.
 AN utant Oxford was acconpe nied to the bAttlefield by his daughter, ss Jo- sic, who was Camp Jeff Davis sponsor, and Miss Oxford, her cousin and maid of honor.
 The Misses Oxford will remain some time in Tennessee ere coming home.
