the country with a balmy warmth.

THE MT. PLEASANT CHRONICLE
Answers One of the Charges Against
Congressman Padgett.

The following is taken from last
week Mt Pleasant Chronicle:
1--WE do not believe the facts in the
case will bear out the statements of
Mr. Lloyd Cecil in his recent circular
so far as the incorporation of Mt.
Pleasant is concerned. 1t is very true
that many of the ladies here did write
Senator Padgett letters asking him to
vote against the incorporation. 1t is
also true that a Methodist minister
who then resided here, did go to Nash
vile and beseech him to oppose the
bill, but this minister was not THE
Methodist minister-that u.s. he was not
the pastor of the Methodist church
here, but was the presiding elder of
the Savannah district, and was resid
ing at Mt Pleasant only as a private
citizen. The Methodist minister
or the pastor of the Methodist church
as well as the pastor of the Presby
terrain church, made no fight whatever,
neither favoring or opposing the lncOr
pOraTiOn.
lat the time Mt. Pleasant was in
corporated there was no great whisKey
element here In fact the incorpOra
tion move was put on foot at a mass
meeting of citizens, at which was
gathered the best people of the town.
The following gentlemen composed the
committee who engaged the lawyers to
draw up the charter: H. ID. Ruhm
an officer in the Episcopal church, }
Jas. A. Bostick a man who has always
voted the prohibition ticket j. 5.
Hill a prominent advocate, Bithel
Howard a man whose character is
known to every man in Maury county, J
and J. P. WarnOck Sunday school
Superintendent of the Methodist church
and an officer in that church. These
gentlemen were, of course, all heartily
In favor of the incorporation of the
town, but through their influence, to
gether with other temperance people of
this town, prevailed on the Maury
county delegation to first see that the
four mile law applying to towns OF
,, 900 inhabitants was passed before the
Mt. Pleasant incorporation bill wen;
through, which was done. If we re-
member correctly, these gentlemen,
together with others of like character
were the ones who held most of the
correspondence with Senator Padgett,
regarding the passage of the incOrpora-
ton bill. If Mr. Padgett sent out a
COPY for a petition we never heard ii,

Furman Case.

Nashville, Dec. 3.-The noted Fur
man will case came to an abrupt end in
the Circuit Court yesterday, the jury
sustaining the will on the first ballot,
polled few minutes after the charge
of Judge Bonner had been delivered.

no doubt in their minds as to whether
or not the instrument presented by the
executors was the last will and tesla
ment of Mrs. Mary J. Furman.
The case has been in the Circuit
Court for more than a month, and at
least twenty days of this time was con
sumed in taking proof and arguing the
case. ....
Under the will sustained by the jury
the Vanderbilt University was to get
the major portion of the Furman es-
tate, which is valued at $3.50, OOO Mrs.
Furman set aside $26, 600 for a family
monument and the residue OF the es
tate was to go to erect family memo
