A DESPERATE ENCOUNTER.
Uncle and Nephew Engage in a Bloody
Fiqht.

A very desperate fight between Henry
Hurt and Charles Burton took place at
Hurts store on the Wytheville turnpike,
about five miles eastof town, on last Thurs
day morning. The wife of Hurt and the
mother of Burton are sisters. 1t seems
that Mr.. Hurt had in some way offended
Mrs. Burton, mother of Charles. He went
to Mr. Hurts store for an explanation, land
the two became involved in very desper-
ate fight. During the melee Burton was
struck four times with rocks and Hurt was
cut once with a knife and struck on the
back of the head with rock. The blow
on the back of the head fractured the
skull quite badly, and DR.. Hufford, the
attending physician, had to remove sew
eral pieces of bone. Of course the wound
is a serious but not necessarily fatal one.

The meeting of the circle at Mr.. F. NJ.
Moss next Saturday evening.

Mr.. John Thompson, whose illness We
have spoken of before, died last Sunday
night. Mr.. Thompson was one of our
oldest and most respected citizens. The
entire community sympathizes with the
friends and relatives in their bereavement.
1t is but mete and proper, as two refer
ences were made last week in our Buake's
Garden locals to the young physician that
he should have word or two in reply.
He says that he feels delicacyin replying
to young school "marm", as he is very
modest, more than that he well knows that
the pen in her hand is "mightier than the
sword". He says he is grateful for the
word that was lost but suggests that it be
defined, for fear ofusing it the wrong place.
He also says, if space will allow, that there
is one thing of which our little country can
boast, although she has been infested by
young doctors for number of years, she
has had well equipped, thorough corps of
school "marms," teachers who love their
work and who are capable Of revising the
text books, especially where mistakes have
been made. Our country has not been
imposed upon along this line,we are happy
to say, as she has by the unprepared doctor,
who forces his pills down the throats of

which has seldom been equaled. Gin

13 deaths resulting out of a total of so
prostrations, but there were many
fatal cases at other points. In Chicago
there were over 100 prostrations within
four days and total of % deaths were
recorded from effects of the heat.

burg three and other cities from one
