They Had Row About the sparks
From the Formers Engine.
Valdosta, Ga, June l9.-News was re-
ceived here to-day Of difficulty between
an engineer on the Mlneoia tram road and
a minister, in which the preacher was
shot in the mouth, the ball coming out of
his jaw. Rev. j. G.. Rawlings is the
preachers name and /. r. Blair Is the en-
gineer.
There are two stories about the dihleul-
ty and both differ widely. Blalr's side
says that the preacher ordered Blair not
10 run his engine any more, as the sparks
were setting fire to fencing along the line.
Il mir stated that he was hired to run The
engine and that his meat and bread de-
pended upon IL. Rev Rawlings became
angry and words passed between the two
men. Rawlings began to advance with
his ax when the engineer fired upon him.
The other side of the row says that
Rawlings asked Blair to let the train
hands help put out the fire, and the en-
gineer refused TO do so as they were load
Ing logs. The preacher had just cut down
a tree and had his AK In his hands, but did
not intend to use IL on Blair and made no
motion that way.
Blair was arrested under a warrant
charging him with assault with intent to
murder and his bond was fixed at $500.
Rev. Rawlings had an eye shot out sew
eral months ago accidentally, having
gun In the buggy with him at the time.

showing on the road, and up to Satur-

way for about $500 feet.
This avenue when completed will be

The grade is easy and no pains will be
spared to make the road good one.
We confess that we are much pleased
at the progress already made, and hope
to see it continued.
When this connection is made with
the mountain lands it ought to mean a
good deal for Sequachee. Emigrants
