nOST DISTRESSING AFFAIR.
The rIc0avOck Children Were Entire
Iy BIameIess.

One Of the most distressing accidents
that eyer occurred IN this section result
ed in the death of Ed Boiling yesterday
afternoon.
Alvin McGavock, thirteen years old,
and his little brother, Hugh, nine years
old, were playing with shot gun in a
room at the homo OF their father, Rob-
ert McGavock, on Patterson hill, a mile
from town.
Ed Boiling, who was working for Mr..
McGayock, was in the room at the time.
Alvin, not knowing it was loaded,
pulled the trigger Of the weapon and it
exploded.
The load of shot entered Boling's
breast, inaiCting wounds from.which he
soon died.
After the boy realized what he had
done his grief was uncomfortable. He
is not held to blame for the unfortunate
affair and his parents have the heartfelt
sympathy Of the whole community
Boiling, the victim, of the accident,
came here from Brandenburg. He is OF
excellent family aud was a man of most
estimable character. He was about 80
years of age.

OF PROUD ANCESTRY.

Little mistakes sometimes lead to re-
suits of the utmost imp ortance. And so,
two or three months ago came some
papers to Rockville for Mr.. Robertson.
R. G Robertson received them, only to
learn that they belonged to Robertson,
of Rockville, Tennessee. In restoring
them to their owner a correspondence
sprang up which is most gratifying in its
revelations Our Robertsons, than whom
no better people live, are learning that
they are closely related to the pioneer
Robertson settlers of Tennessee and
North Carolina, and to Ex-Governor R.
s. Robertson, of Fort Wayne, Indiana.
The Robertson family is composed of
the best OF blood, and the origin is one
that should make everyone that bears
the name feel proud.
II the writer's genealogV showed him
that Scotland's noble blood q lws through
his veins a proud day would be his.
Nothing seems surer than that the brav-
cry, YsIor, courage, nooleness, and honor
OF the noblest Scotch are by direct inner
itance the possession of the Robertsons
of Glendeane.
Mr. Robertson has received a copy OF
the coat OF arms belonging to the family.
Affable, courteous, dignified, I'M
changed, Mr.. Robertson very gracefully
learns of his proud ancestry, and most
modestly replied to to your correspond
ent's questions which led up to the in
formation here presented.
