LAUDERDALE COUNTY
Leander Holt Called Greggs' Wife a
Liar and Was Shot

Florence, December 1.-(Specal. )---Infor-
nation reached here yesterday of the kill
ing of young man named Leander Holt in
the northern portion of the county, near the
Tennessee state line, by a man named w.
M. Gregg.
The trouble grew out of the rental of a
plot Of ground by Holt from Gregg, and
some dispute arose as to which piece of
property had been rented
On Monday last about noon Holt came to
Greggs home with a number of friends and
relatives and demanded that Gregg surren-
dershfs contract for the rent. Gregg's wife
toldSIIolt that he had the land he had con-
traeted to rent, and Holt called her liar.
AS he spoke Gregg pulled his pistol, and,
after swapping the weapon several times, it
fired. and Holt fell from the fence on which
he was sitting He died Tuesday night
Gregg surrendered and was brought to the
city and placed in the county Jail Wednes-
day night. When seen in the jail he did not
appear disturbed as to his surroundings,
and seems confident that he will get out
of the difficulty
The circuit court is in session, but the
grand jury has adjourned. and his case can
not be heard at this term of court. He will
have preliminary hearing on Monday.

Thanksgiving in Athens

Athens, November Observation-Disclosures
giving was appropria tely observed in this
city today in so far as many fine dinners
were CONCERNED. There was no service at
the white churches in the day time, but
at night delightful Thanksgiving service
was held at the Cumberland Presbyterian
church, at which time am excellent pro-
gramfne was carried out.
The 1eolored people enjoyed the rare OPP
portunity of hearing two of their greatest
preachers: One, Bishop Cotrell, in the day
time and Bishop Lane at night. These
two leaders of the colored race are here
holding the North Alabama conference of
the Colored Methodist Church in America.
Bishop Cotrell is a very able man, and
Bishop Lane is one of the few remaining
old before tfe-war colored preachers, who
breaches the old heartfelt religion that
has enthused the colored people for a hun
bred years. They are moving along with
their annual conference work splendidly,
and are receiving good reports from their
various preachers.
The age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1897-1902, 1899-12-02

they told and listened to the tales Of the
old camp fires. when they fought that brave
fight for their beloved southland many
years ago. Hon. Fred w. Ferguson was
present and delivered an eloquent address,
full of "reminiscences and glowing tributes
to the courage and bravery of the southern
soldier. Under the inspiration of the music
from the Southern Concert band, with their
hearts full of gratitude, and with raneor
and bitterness in their souls toward no
man, nor against any section of their coun-
try, they were boys again with the youthful
spring in their steps as they marched
around the stage with sweet little Leila
Sewall leading them. through all the In
tricacies and maZes of a cake walk, while
the very rafters of the old buildings rever-
brated with the rebel yell. A sumptuous
banquet, which was no small adjunct to the
enjoyment of the occasion, was served at 2
o. clock.
A few of the new coke ovens at No. 4
Were fired up yesterday. and by the end of
the week all, 1t Is said, will be in operation
The first run of steel was made at the
Ensley mill Thursday, another victory for
the great mineral district of Alabama, and
one more hue added to the bright rainbow
which spans our horizon.
The Woman's club of Pratt City, met yes
terday afternoon with Mrs flames A. Kirk
The next meeting will he at the home OF
Miss Lois Mckenzie on Friday next Some
time during the holidays the CLUB will give
an entertainment.

TRAIN ROBBERY In
IA SOUTH CAROLINA
Express Car Looted of $1.700
in Cash.
OUTLAW HAD NO ASSISTANT
After Warning the Messenger Not to
Move He Pulled the Bell Cord and
Jumped From the Nov
ing Train.

Charleston, S. c., December IAN I'M
known white man, closely masked, held up
the Two messengers in Southern Express
companys ear tonight, and under the COW
er OF revolver compelled them to give up
SLIGO in cash. Eight thousand dollars in
another safe was overlooked by the outlaw,
who accomplished his work without any
aid
The robbery took place near Branchville,
S. c., on the Southern railway. The train
had just left the station when Messengers
Ramsay and Rhodes were covered with
two revolvers held in the hands of the
stalwart robber.
One messenger was made TO stand with
his hands over his head, and the other was
commanded to hand over the money pack
ages in the safe. Seventeen hundred dol
lars was quickly secured and the robber,
after warning the messengers not to put a
foot outside of the car until the train had
gotten under Roadway again, pulled the
bell cord and jumped off as the train moved
on. The conductor saw the robber escap-
ing along the side of the track, but think
ing him a tramp, signalled the engine
ahead, When the train got under way the
messengers came out and told their story.
The sheriff of Dorchester, with six men
and two hounds, have been hurried to the
scene of the hold-up.
