The above from Mr.. Hardy last night
is most interesting, taken in connection
with the proceedings of an Indignation
meeting held at Bayboro on Wednesday.
A copy of the proceedings of this meet
ing has been sent the News and Obser-
Yer.
1t was presided over by Chas. Swan
and was addressed by w. T. Caho, j.
W. Muse, Leroy Harper, c. R. McCleese,
J. w. Aldridge and Others, after which
resolutions were adopted denouncing the
newspapers that published the news of
the trouble at Bayboro, the men who
sent the appeals for troops and the Gov
ernor for ordering them out.
The preamble to the resolutions ode
mands that the newspapers which have
given publicity to this vile, wilful and
malicious SANDER correct the same at
once, that the great damage done to us
as individuals, and to our county and it's
citizens at large and generally, and pub
licly be to some extent at least repaired;
and the stain that has been put upon
us by some low, base. designing, and de-
generate beings, who bear the resem-
blance of human beings, be as far as
possible removed. Therefore be it re-
solved.
First. That we declare that the tele-
grams that We have read in the News
and Observer and the Newborn Journal
and the Morning Post of Raleigh of date
of August 5th are base and malicious
falsehoods in every particular; not one
word or syllable of truth in them and
that the originators and senders of them
in our opinion knew them to be c.lse
at the time, and they should be held by
the good law-abiding citizens in utmost
contempt and treated as vile and mali
cious ISLANDERS, of the good name of a
law-abiding and peaceful people"
Second quotes telegram printed in
the Newborn Journal dated August 4th
and says it is "a tissue of falsehoods
and a criminal libel from beginning to
end, and was known to be untrue at the
time by the sender as we honestly be-
lieve."
Third quotes a telegram printed in
tho Nebern Journal of August 7th, and
declares THAT the same is untrue and
is a libel and SANDER upon the sheriff
of the county as we'll as any other citi-
zen"
The resolutions then declare their be-
lief as to who sent the kilograms COM
planned of, and assert ina they were
''vile SANDERS" uttered knowingly, will
fully, and maliciously and with the in
tent to injure the good name of w. e.
Hooker, sheriff of Pamlico county, who
is an honorable, just and faithful officer
and a Christian gentleman.
Fourth. That there was no riotous
conduct or any approaching riot carried
on here at the court house on Saturday
while the canvassing board was in ses-
sion or at any other time, and none at
tempted. That the cursing that was in
dulged in by few was not intimidating
or threatening but was the giving vent
to their feelings of the fraud that was
being perpetrated upon them in the

Especial to Mes and Observer
Newbern, N. c., August 9.-Mr. Geo. r.
Crimson, chairman of the board of can
vassers for Pamlico county was seen to
day, and gives the following statement
about the reported trouble at Bayboro
last aSturday and Saturday night:
1.-THE board met according to law in the
court house at twelve o'clock. When they
met there were at least fifty or seventy
five people in the court room, perhaps
more. The board was in session. until
between two and three o'clock Sunday
morning, and while they were counting
out the votes the noise and disturbance
was SO loud that l wrote the sheriff a
note requesting him to come up in the
court room and quiet the crowd. The
sheriff came at my request and asked
the crowd to sit down and keep order,
which they did for about five minutes,
then left the court room and went down
stairs, the sheriff going with them. Dur
ing the time the board was in session
it received three messages that we con-.
sidcred threats. They were: First, that
If the beard threw out part of Bayboro
township they would come up in the court
room and take the records or returns
away from the board; another message
said that if We threw out the Bayboro
township they 1.-THE crowd down stairs
would blow up the court house; the third
threat was Sent about the time the board
was ready to declare the results of the
election, and said that if the board did
throw out Bayboro township or part
of it the canvassing board would be mob
bed
Mr.. Brinson said he did not recollect
who brought the first two threats or
messages, but that Philemon Paul and
others delivered the last message; that
Paul at the same time advised the board
to adjourn until Monday, the 9th. And
Mr.. Brinson says they adjourned and
came out of the court room between two
and three O'Clock, and he went home.
s~.. Answering the question, did you think
the situation was serious? Mr.. Brinson
declared unhesitatingtly: 81 did

tion had been received at Bayboro that

trouble? he said, Eyes, and / desire
to thank the Governor for his assist

Mr.. Brinson added that he believed
under the circumstances existing at Bay
boro at the time those who requested
the Governor to send the Reserves were
entirely justifiable.
